Booboo is better

For now, good news about Booboo. We went back to the vet and after some new medicine, he seems to be back to the playful & lovable Booboo we all know. He is does seems to sleep more often, but I suppose after a week of illness, his body is still recovering. The vet still doesn't know why he was so sick for so long. She will keep checking with us and keep an eye on him to make sure he continues to improve.

It's been busy than usual around here, scout camp is over (which means lots of laundry), sent my daughter to Tampa with my parents (13.5 hour drive), son #2 is out of sorts with 2 yr molars coming in, and son #3 learned to crawl this week. WoW!

I did manage to get the quilt shop, and bought Lori Smith's Heirloom Stitches. I am really excited to start it. I feel guilty because I so many other projects I should finish. I need to take an inventory and make a list of priority projects. When I see other people's blog, with their lists of 'to do' or 'done' or 'working on', I am inspired. But at the same time, it's a little depressing because my 'ufo' list would be so long, and it makes me realize how many things I start but don't finish. But it's really not all my fault- I default the blame to quilt shows! I go and see everything, buy tons of stuff, start it and then get excited to start the 'other' projects, and then the vicious cycle begins. OK, I should remember to be glad to have attended quilt shows and have the opportunity to buy quilt stuff, even if it is not being used to it's full potential at this time. It will be used one day!
