We Finally Catch a Break

 Kevin and I are in the middle of six days off. I thought I’d be really productive, and maybe I have. But I’m just tired. We go back to work on Wednesday, which will be in Louisiana until Monday the 27th. 

Yesterday I went to a place in college station called “all phone toys” because he said he could fix the fact that my phone can’t charge. The phone was just dirty. I can hear a lot better out of it now. I also got me a new screen protector and case. My total there was about $75, and I did about $60 worth of side jobs all over the area. 

I also paid $5 on YouTube for a British series called MaryLand, because my celebrity crush of 30 years was in it, and it also looked like a good story. My long time celebrity crush is a British actor named Andrew Knott. A lot of things he was in don’t even look that good, though, so I never rented or purchased them.  This was about two sisters who found out after their mother’s death that she’d been living a double life on the Isle of Man. Andrew Knott played the husband of one of them, and good Lord- the amount of weaponized incompetence in the character he played almost made me fire him as my celebrity crush. (I’m just kidding- it was actually kind of funny.) 

Maryland was very good, though. I couldn’t imagine keeping a secret from my own daughter, though. Or would I?  I never have, unless it was something non age appropriate. But by the time I’m in my 70’s and she’s in her 40’s, I hope there are no secrets. Especially one of the magnitude in MaryLand. 

Kevin and I got into a conversation about Joshua and the battle of Jericho in the Bible. It’s an enormously disturbing story, but I still love this song. I played it for Kevin, and he likes it too. It has a completely different meaning than the disturbing nature of the biblical battle of Jericho. 

I did also have a couple of minor accomplishments. I finished my blog post on why I believe more missing people are actually alive than are assumed. If anyone wants me to link it, let me know. I’m still a little skittish about sharing any of my child advocacy stuff that I do under a pseudonym. Eventually I will though. 

I also started another rainbow denim chenille quilt, but only got rows red through green. This is bigger and may include a pink row, but I'm not sure yet. 

I also made a blue quilt, but do not have pics. The quilts with the blue themes are more boring, but the fabric is easier to find cheap. One of my friends thinks I should have some 7-8 before starting an Etsy shop. That’s the goal. What do you think, should a rainbow quilt contain a pink row or not?
