Good News Thursday



With all of the sad and bad news that is happening in our world, I sometimes feel out of sorts when good things are happening to me. But today I want to think about good things.  You know I am all about simple pleasures.  It doesn't take much to make me smile---just like it doesn't take much to make me cry.

The best news this week--Yesterday I had my colonoscopy!!! All is good, I shouldn't have to do this again for ten years. I am so happy I didn't chicken out and cancel because I almost did.  I had the phone in my hand!  Ernie took the day off, played chauffeur and took me out to a nice lunch after.

I have a good plan for working my UFOs.  That means I have a good plan for spending time in my sewing room.

My turkeys are growing and trying to sneak out of their pen to get to the outside world.  They aren't ready for the outside world yet--kind of like me.  I threw a bunch of grass clippings in to them yesterday and they were so curious and excited.

Our bees are doing great, our chickens are laying lots of eggs. Fred the Rooster is still mooching off us instead of going home.  I love him!  He is beautiful and he is nice.  My girls like him too.  So far no one is sitting on any eggs though.  I am hoping someone goes broody soon before the neighbors decide they want their rooster back.  Earn your keep Mister!!!

Do you have good news?  We would love to hear about it. Link up at Patchwork Times.

Good News Thursday


Today's good news is I got to spend a wonderful day with my granddaughter. I picked up Miss Taylor and we went to the local quilt show.  These gals put on a wonderful show.  I came away so inspired.  The venders got a nice little chunk of change.  We spotted this bag pattern and had to have it.  Then we saw the fabric. Tay picked the green and black and she loved the purple, I had to have the pink. We bought ourselves some new Goat's Milk lotion.

I was on a mission to find some sky fabric for my wall hanging.  I'm so excited to finally be at the sky section and have very little light blue. We found these 2 fat quarters to add to the mix.

Then we went out to lunch and did some zipper and inner facing shopping at JoAnn's.  Now I am going to sit and stitch some hexies while I watch some tv for a while.

Today was a much needed feel good day. See some other good news posts here at Judy L's.

Good News Thursday


 Every day I am thankful for simple pleasures.
It doesn't take much to make me smile.
Like these daffodils ready to pop open.
And that red wagon that the kids play with and
I use to haul my basket full of wet clothes to the clothesline.


Every day my girls give me some of these.
Not that itty bitty but those always make me smile.


And when I make a mistake like this, 
I'm happy I have enough extra fabric that is doesn't matter.

The best new of all is that our health insurance has finally been straightened out.
I can stop fretting about that.

What kind of good news do you have today?
