A long weekend ahead......

and I can't wait. I am so distracted with things this morning that I am not able to focus (or want to do) any one thing. Maybe it's boredom, maybe it's just spring fever, or maybe I just don't want to be here today. Whatever it is, I don't want to be here.....

I finished the baby quilt for my brother's new grandbaby yesterday. I discovered that the colors they chose for the nursery contain purple. Not pink. And pink is what I made the quilt. Oh well. I debated on saving this quilt for another baby, and get purple material and do another - but I don't know. Will have to think about it. I love the pink quilt I made for my great granddaughter. No, she hasn't arrived yet. sigh.

I text'd my daughter in law last night and asked how our girl was doing. Some contractions but not enough to go to the hospital with. So everyone continues to wait. We pray every morning that Tamsyn will make her debut soon so that everyone can enjoy her this weekend. Except us, of course, but the immediate family.

I may go get more material this weekend so that I can continue to work on things. I've enjoyed putting the little quilts together. It gives me something to do in the evenings and I'm not wasting my time on facebook or playing WWF - although I do get caught up on my games before I start. Hubby turned on Wheel of Fortune last night. I told him that it reminded me of my parents - every night they would watch Wheel of Fortune. I don't know if he got the message I was sending him or not (I DON'T WANT TO BECOME MY PARENTS!!) but AFTER the show he turned the TV off.

I went to an all day quarterly meeting yesterday with the group of case managers who will be out of jobs come September 30th. It was a really good meeting and people from the company who won the bid was there and gave a slide presentation, answered lots of questions and encouraged the case managers to apply for jobs. I was very impressed with their presentation and I feel that many of the case managers' fear of the unknown was relieved. Many signed up to get applications to submit for the jobs. I did not sign up. My boss laughed at me. I told her that I have a job. IF she gets hired and put in a close by location, I will go with her. BUT, if not, I still have a job. I've been trying to think of ways I could quit this job and all, but it just won't happen. Good thing I'm younger than my spouse, I guess. I am still able and willing to work.

It's beautiful outside and starting to get warm. I am so glad we have tomorrow off work because of Good Friday. Rather, they call it "Spring Holiday". I don't care what they call it - we are closed for the day and we have a 3 day weekend. I am so looking forward to it. Not sure what we will do - nothing we can do really. It messes hubby up when I'm home from work - he doesn't know what to do with himself. It cracks me up, really. It's almost like he feels he has to be doing something because I'm home..... maybe I'll go get some shopping done I need to do....

Guess I need to get busy - have a great weekend.....

Blessings!
