David's first day of retirement in a "work week" was great yesterday.

David should be good at retirement because he has hobbies and things he enjoys doing.   I'm hoping Bob will get more involved with his telescope now that we have the observatory up and he will be able to keep it set the way it needs to be and not have to restart every time.

I do hope Bob can keep his wits about him until he gets the observatory as he wants it.  And then he can enjoy using it!  Out of your hair!

Yay Yay from me too!

And miss all the fun?

As much space as I have I could easily double it.  Seems I manage to use as much space as I have.

That's so true, I'm overflowing into another room.  My space is small, I need it about 3 times bigger.  Ha Ha!

Finished my  Lotto blocks and got them trimmed.

Good for you!!  

It's coming together slowly.   We need some clear night skies to set it on Polaris.  Then the computer will take over and actually move the telescope to where he indicates he wants it.  It will be great for it not to have to be set up every time he wants to use it.  He has a sun filter so can even view the sun during the day safely.

Wow!  That sounds amazing.  Bob will have many hours of fun with that I'm sure.  Can't wait to see pics!

wow...I would love to see that setup!!

I've been working on minis to decorate my sewing room wall. Annoyingly, I tried to do the binding where you sew in the front, then sew through the front to the back. I did 2", and it wasn't quite big enough to grab in some parts. I'm sure that's a seam allowance thing, though I couldn't see it. I'll still have to hand bind in some spots. Otherwise, having fun with it!

Mel, it's a lot easier to sew the binding on the back and then topstitch on the front.  Think you'll like this better.
