Is It Thursday Already???

Today was a nice lazy day, I am ahead of schedule on quilting so I decided that I would be a couch potato this afternoon. Or in my case a Day Bed Potato! The day bed is located in the “game room” . So I lounged all afternoon, and played a couple of video games. Yes I play Video games, I know I’m a adult I should be out of that faze by now but honestly I just don’t think that is ever going to happen! This got me to thinking about a Blog I read last year (sorry I do not remember who’s it was so if you now please let me know) This bloger had posted a list of her guilty pleasures, so I thought I would do the same. I started to make a list of them only to decide that I have way to many to post all at once! So fo now I’ll just post the one about video games!

Guilty Pleasure #1

VIDEO GAMES!

I got addicted on Video games back in the… well lets just say I was a bit younger than I am now and my brothers were the owners of both a Atari and Coleco game systems! My first game was a Strawberry Shortcake matching game. Really simple and girlie. But as time went on the games changed as did the systems we played them on. When the brother got a Nintendo System I quickly became addicted to Mario Brother and The Legend of Zelda ( is still a favorite! ) Well it wasn’t long after the Playstation came out that I just had to have one! I become a fan of Crash Bandicoot And latter The Jak & Daxter Series. However It wasn’t long before I was introduced to the dreaded Final Fantasy Series. Yes, if you have nothing to do for the rest of your life become a Final Fantasy game player. My addiction started with game seven, my most favorite of all the series. I tend to have to purchase the new games in the series the day they come out. I even have the new releases of the “old” Fantasy games that have been released on the Nintendo DS. Now I haven’t got desperate enough to purchase a Playstation 3 yet, I just don’t see paying $400.00 for a game system when right now only a handful of the games interest me. Oh and one more thing… lets not forget the little bookshelf in the game room that houses my strategy guides for most all my games! no they re not Cheat Books, they are Strategy guides! and I don’t use them until I have played a game beginning to end at least once. then I go back with the Guide to find stuff I might not have found the first couple of times!

Now you now a little bit about one of my Guilty Little Pleasures!

and just so you know I didn’t slack off all day, I did quilt another T-Shirt quilt made by Doloris M. This one I am guessing belongs to someone that works at the local Curves Gym, Enjoy!

It’s Wednesday!

Boy did today go fast! Wonder if that had anything to do with my oversleeping this morning and getting up a couple of hours late???

Anyway… here are the photos from today’s work! The First is A Shop Hop Quilt from last year, made by Alice B. I have quilted a few of these so they are starting to get a bit repetitive, honestly I really hope this is the last one I have to look at! The white “lines” you see are chalk, so don’t panic!

The second quilt today was a t-shirt quilt that was made by Doloris M. I believe that it is going to end up in Mississippi ( I think! ) She wanted some words quilted into the sashing, I have showed a couple of these areas in the photos and I also included a photo of the backing.
