Prpbably because it's February and we tend to stay home and veg out. Had coffee last night with our cousin Beryl. She is starting to show her age, and I have to wonder how old she actually is. Not that it matters. She and her husband are still living on the farm, but are now talking about selling it. A couple of years ago she said that they would both have to be taken off the land in a hearse. Times change.
Drove out to an art quilt meeting in Beausejour on Monday evening with my friend Ann Marie, meeting a couple of other friends there. We had let the organizer know we were interested, awhile back, and she had enthusiastically invited us. We had thought that we would go out and be part of the audience, knowing that their meetings are usually well organized. Well, it turned out that we were the program! We each had a table to lay our stuff on ( we had been told to bring Show'n'Tell) and were each allowed to do a presentation about how everything was made, what techniques we had used etc. The "7:00to 9:00" meeting lasted to 10:30, and then we had to drive home. Turned out to be a late night, as I'd had a cup of coffee while I was there. It was the first time I had actually heard Ann Marie describe how she works. She makes the most interesting fantasy pieces, usually with a woman-complete with hand painted face-in sparkly wild clothing and worked within a fantastic "landscape".
So, two evenings of the Olympics, and I missed both of them. hopefully, I can catch up today.
