Ending May Mania


They say when it rains, it pours - that was the month of May.  I am so glad this busy month is over, but hate to think June is marking half way into the year.  AND my relaxing days at the end of the month were nerve wrecked with severe storms, heavy rains that cause flooding, lightening that caused fires, people injured with hydroplaning cars - and my own car deciding that just because it was going in for a re-call repair that it totally had to go hay wire (scared the poop out of me).


This mess got cleaned up with the Scrap Challenge.  Well a lot of blocks got packed up and shipped out.  Other projects got moved along into their next stage - basically they need to get finished.

The circles for '365' are done, quilts for others got quilted and out the door, all QAL blocks up to date, Hands2Help quilts got mailed off (early), and Let's Book It became a flimsy.


I'm hoping June will offer me more of 'Do More of What Makes You Happy'.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

you got a lot done. I was down for the count. not much progress in the quilting world here. and I have till the end of June to get my butt in gear for a reunion!

Sarah said...

Wow - sounds like your weather was much worse than here. We had a little rain but we had above normal temps (much worse than rain in my book). You accomplished a lot of projects so now I hope you can enjoy June!!

Dasha said...

Wow! You got a heap done. Your rain sounds a bit hard to take. We have had a lovely Indian Summer until last week, then winter set in overnight. Mind you, our winter weather isn't severe like yours. We moan when it's 7C at night (like last night) LOL.

It sure sounds like you accomplished a lot. I hope that the month of June gives you the time to do things that make you happy and that nice calm weather comes your way.

Sorry for all of the chaos happening in your neck of the woods. In spite of it you have been very productive. Love how your houses turned out.

Barbara said...

Well you got a lot done in spite of it all. The year isn't really half over until the end of June, so you can rest easy for another 30 days.

Well,I'm certainly wishing you more of what makes you happy, both for your sake and mine. (Watching you do what makes you happy makes me happy!)

Wow you really got through that list. Lots accomplished.

Oh my...I hope your car is back to behaving well. These storms are something else anymore. Best we can do is sit them out and stitch. You always inspire me!

What a May it was for you! Wish we could share some of that rain.

Love the beach cottages!!! The colors are fabulous.

Char said...

Boy, you were busy! We had the heavy rains as well but thankfully no flooding. That flimsy is so cute!

Jeanna said...

You had an amazing month of May, Sharon.

Sorry to hear about your car issues, hope that is all straight now.

I look forward to seeing what you do in June...that makes you happy :)

That was a lot of bad in that first paragraph, I hope the rain goes away and June brings beautiful sunny weather and lots of "do what makes you happy" time. Sorry about your car, I hope that gets fixed soon too.

It sounds like it's a good thing we're wiping the dust off our feet and leaving the month of May behind! Here's to a happier, safer, and healthier June, my friend!!! :)

Rebecca in AK said...

Sounds like some wild weather! I hope things get straightened with your car. We have had three recalls on our truck. It sounds like you got a lot accomplished in May!

Car problems are never fun. Hope June is better.

Sarah Craig said...

Sorry for all the bad things that happened in May, but as the recipient of one of your scrappy block boxes, I can say that you did some amazing work in between! And I love the house qulit at the end of your post...

Kate said...

Hopefully June is a "do what makes you happy month". We've had the rain and storms too, with flash flood warnings just this morning. Even though you had a busy month, you still got a lot done. Congrats on that.
