It's Friday at Half-past Kissin' time, it's time to join Friday Fragments.

It's 5:47 AM and I am wide awake.  This is not usual but I was woken up this morning at 5:30 by a big crash and a noise that sounded like broken glass.  My first thought was that someone was trying to steal the television and had dropped and broke it! Someone's in the house!
Then I heard a wail from the Girl's room.  We all ran out into the hallway and to her room.  Here's what actually happened: her alarm went off at 5:30 AM and she jumped up half asleep to turn it off, crashed into the desk and knocked over a metal jewelry stand with lots of earrings and necklaces on it (the crashing sound).  Whew.  But I am awake now.

March has warmed up tremendously now and my daffodils are blooming.  Yesterday I saw my first bushes and trees with a thin wisp of green and it made me so happy.

This week has flown by really fast!  Was it like this for you too?

Tuesday Quilt block March 13

I am still chugging along on my Just takes 2 blocks, though progress lately has been slow, because of a pretty bad cold.

A star block and some flying geese.

I'm linking up with Connie at Quilting by the River.

And I'm linking up to another linky party: Quilt Story.
See what other quilt and crafty projects people are sharing!

Friday Fragments March 9

Ok off we go. I've been feeling fragmented for the last few days!

***
I wasn't part of this party last week as I had a really bad cold and spent much time in bed.  Easier to do as it was Spring Break for my school.  Though not the kid's school.  I don't think they will ever coincide.  If they do, we've promised the children a trip to Disney- that's how much I believe they will never coincide!
***
Mrs. 4444 mentioned a song whose lyrics she objected to.  I know that song - just heard it last night in the car.  I was thinking that the kids on Glee will probably cover it and its slacking message will go out to even more children.

***
The earworms aren't as bad this week (earworms are songs that get in your head and don't ever leave).  However this week I constantly hear "Cheer up sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean to a daydream believer and a homecoming queen..."  Argh.   But rest in peace Davy Jones.

***
My son has started his paper route.  At nearly 14 he is ignoring advice from his dad and myself to organize his customer list so that he can more efficiently deliver the papers.  Some week in the future he'll do this himself - wonder when?

***
Out new big screen TV broke earlier, luckily on day 59 of the 60 day warranty.  Oh how we all missed it.  It is so great to have it finally fixed.  Are we addicted?

March 7 Rednesday

I am sharing a recent quilt block with you today.  It's quite red and you could call it a Cherry Basket.

It looks like orange but the color here is actually a tomato red.  The background is unbleached muslin - not as dingy as photographed!  This is one of the Just Takes Two quilt blocks,  from the Just Takes Two project.
I am joining with Sue at It's a Very Cherry World for Rednesday!  Have a great week.
