It is windy here again today. It was very smokey here yesterday but is a bit better today.

We were wearing particle masks yesterday

Perche, I heard that all of California top to bottom and side to side is basically going to be under red flag warnings for the near future. Hope you guys all stay safe.

We say that October and November is fire season here.... This is why... Low humidity High winds from the desert and high fuel load....

Add to that the existing fires and the occasional human stupidity...

With the drought the season has lasted longer and longer....

Yeah have to either burn it all or scoop it out. As cold as it is, I'd rather burn it all than wait for it to cool and scoop. The bag should last us a little less than 24 hours with the rate we're burning right now, so only another hour or two to silence.

Gotta get ready for rooster processing tomorrow. And then back to work Tuesday
Been off for 2 weeks (minus one day that I had to go in) which has been nice, but it doesn't pay the bills. The nightmares and anxiety started back up last night, though.

Worked on this piece yesterday and today, much more happy with it than my other 2 pieces. I am getting more used to the machine but boy am I stitching slowly. Not used to being so unsteady and out of control. A few more practice pieces to improve my speed and I'll be ready to put something "for real" on the rails to quilt.

Very nice as usual.

You know SCG, if you keep practicing, you can be better than 99% of the people who quilt instead of only 98%.

BTW, I think you need a thread with all your quilts in it so they are easier to find. I had to go back and hunt for the purply flower one to show DD2.

Cut down another tree today. Could have used an experienced logging wench to help with the limbing and dragging the brush back into the woods
