I spent the morning getting my reports ready for the Cranberry Hall Board meeting tonight. Even though I kept pretty much up to date on the accounting during January there was still a lot of reconciling to do before I wrote my reports. It seems it was a busy month for “things” at the Hall – problems and other issues – and I wanted to be prepared for what I wanted to say on the matters. If I didn’t write it down I’d remember I had something to say but forget exactly what it was.

I made a quick trip to the post office after lunch and picked up a few things at the grocery store. When I got home I finished up a small quilting project (except for the hand stitching).

With what time I have left in the afternoon I’m going to start on a couple of test blocks for the quilt I’m planning to make with all the strips I won at the Texada Retreat last fall. It’s my #9 project (in the monthly Challenge) and I’m anxious to see how it turns out. I found enough neutral colour in my stash so I don’t need to shop for anything.

I finished another knitting project last night – a toque – but after it was done I realized I put a pom-pom on it and that won’t go through the mail very well. I’ll take the pom-pom off, go back and do a bit more decreasing before finishing it again.
