Now live on my G3 powerbook.

Here you go – progress report on what I did at Vermont:

Go here to see the whole story of the quilt.

I’ve uploaded some photos I took at the Vermont Show, without web pages, but if you want to work through an index page, here you go.

Spent most of yesterday putting things away, grocery shopping (oooooh food, whatta concept) and so far have spent most of today on the phone. Madonna phone doesn’t seem to be working. ick. Makes it hard to be on hold. Shouldn’t $60 last more than a couple months for an electronic device like a phone?

OK – off for the last phone call of the day

went to the vermont quilt festival and got a red ribbon for “elegy” as well as a special award “most elegant.” That was very exciting. Mom got her first vermont ribbon this year for her union star quilt and she was very psyched.

We had a very nice time, met some new folks, hung out with lots of quilts and quilters and survived heat and thunderstorms and the trip home.

Whatta weird day. Slept late because I was just totally wound last night. couldn’t figure out this morning why the cats were stomping around all over me – ooops – no Ron to have already fed them! poor starving kitties.

Made a phone call, faxed a letter. Umpteen telemarketing calls and some more hang ups. That’s getting really old. The phone rings and I was ready to say something nasty to the next telemarketer.

Nope -it’s a nice fellow from Apple, in California! 20 minutes or so of phone interview ensues. Fun but nerve wracking. Guess it’s one of those things that it’s better not to fret about ahead of time. But! He says I’ll be hearing from the fellow who is doing the face to face interview. YEAH!

Then I talk with Pat for awhile. Then I chat with Mr Merrill for awhile. Go out and try to start the lawn mower. Nope. Grrrrrr.

Ron calls from the Tetons to say hi. They’re going climbing/hiking tomorrow. Sounds like it’s going ok out there but he didn’t expect to be on his own teaching CPR. Once he was over the shock of it, he was ok.

Even got a walk in today – so now it’s time for me to hit the hay!
