My amazing new quilt

My sisters made me a quilt for my birthday. It is awesome. The quilt has a beach theme, it's all batik fabrics; with shells, fish, sea turtles and so much more. The name of the quilt is "C D Goldfish?" I think the picture says more than I can.

My sisters are awesome, too!!

Just when you think it can't get any worse...

....it always gets worse. So don't ever think that it's can't get any worse.

RAINBOW Jello!!

I wanted to create a blog that was about cooking and baking. So far my blog mostly seems about whining and complaining! (At least I don't complain too much about work.)

Kevin graduated on Sunday and we had a little party for him. (He did NOT want a big party!) One of the items made for dinner was "rainbow jello." It isn't that hard but it is pretty, so I am posting a picture here. A picture that Kevin took, with his graduation present camera! Other desserts at the party included triple chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal cookies, a pumpkin pie, and a banana cake. And, nope, I didn't happen to get any pictures of those. Geez.....

Pathetic

I have written and deleted three blog entries. They are all so .... depressing. Complaining about one thing or another. (OK, mostly my job and the fact that I have to work.) It's been a long week - not entirely without good points, though. I received a compliment from one of the engineers - when I mentioned that I might try to do something else at, like going to the level 2 engineer position, the engineer said "No! You can't do that! You are the only SAM that understands what we are talking about - you are the easiest SAM to work with!" So, there it is. I still want to find another position, though. This one requires too much talking on the phone. Talking to...people....scary. It gives me the SHIVERS!

Kevin graduates this weekend. He will be going to parties, but not having one himself. May be just as well, the front deck is currently missing as Gary and his dad replace it. Right now the front of the house is a mud pit, but it will be nice when it is done.

It's been a long week, I am so glad it's Friday. Now, if it were only 4:00......
