Almost August

Well it is nearly August and I have lots of plans this month.  Taking The Good Life (that is what I call the boat but Dan doesn't know that) out offshore in hopes of catching lots of fish.  Trying to finish all the quilt tops I plan on doing as Christmas gifts.  Reorganizing the garage. Finishing the organization of the quilting room.  Working on facepainting designs for the Family Reunion.  Finally, having our buddy Ken do some repairs on the interior of the RV.  I think I have quite enough......oooops....how could I forget???? Go see Get On Up and Guardians of the Galaxy!!!!!
