First off, a heartfelt hip hip hooray for good old Blogger — the fine bloggerites just launched a new interface that’s very user friendly, well organized and apparently without much in the way of hitches. Applause Applause! If you’re using Blogger, I encourage you to send your applause to them directly. I sent them a note via the only email route I could find on a short bit of time and got back a truly appreciative note. It’s easy to throw bricks when things are going not-so-well, so please remember to send along the compliments as well.

Second, making progress in a number of things. Found and arranged for trash pick up. Up there with the lawn mower minor miracle. Made an appointment for my sewing machine to go in for maintenance. Slow but sure going through the list.

When I came home tonight the new trash receptacle and recycling bin were at my driveway as promised. whooooooooo. Hey, I don’t get out as much as I probably should.

Finally – despite some glimmers of entertainment found in the season finales on TV, I’m making progress in the quilting. My carrot at the moment — I have my next project hung where I can see it — just finish this and you can get down to business on that. Go Go Go!
