In typical male fashion nephew's text was brief - "Done. All good. No pictures yet".
Always good to hear the expectant news of a new baby being born

Congrats to your nephew Willie!
The one who moved away (nephew#2) and his GF are still carrying on with their long distance relationship. He's really racking up the air miles 😶.
is this the nephew that moved far away for work?
I think the bubble quilts are cute and look comfy but I wonder if a baby could suffocate if they turned over face down on it, since it so fluffy.
It’s just that I’ve had two life changing events and my husband is failing to show the appropriate amount of awe and enthusiasm.
A couple of days ago I googled “How to change sheets on a split king adjustable bed”. I love love love “clean sheet night”. The first night on clean, crisp sheets. Newly clean sheets actually rates pretty high up on my list of Pleasures in Life, in general.
But with my bad back, changing the sheets on our split king is a real pain - nearing an ordeal...
So, just out of curiosity I googled it.
OMG! The solution was so brilliant and so easy - it nearly took my breath away. When I think back in the last several years fighting with this chore and then seeing such an easy remedy - I feel both amazed AND stupid. But overall - happy.
So, then I thought “Why not? Let’s take this for a ride...” and I googled “How to fold a fitted sheet”.
I watched a two minute video twice and voila! I tried it and it was so easy! The sheet folded near perfect.
It’s seems that all the answers in life can be found on either Google or YouTube. Utterly amazing!!!
Thanks to the good advice of people here I abandoned my knitted blanket and went with crochet. That also ran into a snag or two but on the whole crochet is much more forgiving and my baby blanket is finished - dusty rose with an off white picot border.
Yes, looks super comfy.
What’s a bubble quilt? I will have to google it. Have you made one?
Have you seen the DIY Bubble Quilts for babies/toddlers?
Cute to make for your niece maybe?
Activity trackers, wireless-enabled wearable technology devices that measure data such as the number of steps walked, heart rate, quality of sleep, steps climbed, and other personal metrics involved in fitness.
That was such a thoughtful gift you received CWillie!
But I just cannot look it up again. 🍍
First time in two weeks. I'm sore today though.😫
If you start your exercise early in the morning, you will have all day to procrastinate.
I already did my diddly squats.
But really, how did your workout go yesterday?
With our health insurance, a gym membership (limited?) through Silver Sneakers was free. Anybody else have this?

Or maybe it was communion Sunday? 🍷
I am staying home.😷
Yeah but, hubs brings donuts from church.🍩 Just one, thanks.
I may need a fitbit soon. I forgot to count my steps to the car. And there were too too many fries to count at In N Out! 🍟🍟🍟
Did you wear your mask today, MsMadge?🎭
does the fitbit take into account the donut you got at Timmies? 😘
