It was a beautiful weekend

 Patrick spent the majority of the weekend outside. On Saturday he finished staining the deck which I started back when was hunting. He also constructed 2 more raised beds for the garden. He got to "play" outside while I spent the day with my 3 quilting friends from church. A trip to Mary Jo's cloth store in Gastonia is always a fun time.  On Sunday he pruned the blueberry bushes and we planted 25 strawberry plants.

 He also finished this beautiful mirror for our bedroom closet.  We purchased a cheap mirror from Wally World and took off the junky plastic frame.  We designed this frame to go around it and he proceeded to construct it.  He  was able to put the finish coats on it this weekend since we had beautiful temperatures.   We will hang it tonight when he gets home from work.  I am home sick today with sinus drainage and a sore throat.  Work does not want us on campus if we have any illness since we have such a fragile population.  So even though I fell relatively fine I have to stay home today.  Too bad, so sad........  as usual I have a list of things I can accomplish today.  I better get busy, the clock is ticking.
