Monday

• Brian stayed home today.  He is taking the whole week off.  Crazy.  He cleaned the kitchen, played with Becca and mopped while I ran errands this morning.  He was going to replace a few pieces of siding on the house today but that is proving difficult.  There are way too many old nails that won't come out without tearing the old siding apart too.
• Kate didn't want to go to school today.  She was low level sick all last week and got use to staying home.  It started with a fever then congestion and sore throat and then diarrhea.  But go to school she did.  The kids are going to school tomorrow and then are off for the rest of the week.  Fun!  (kinda sarcastic there)
• I have been throwing around this idea for a block of the month program based on the ceramic quilt block patterns found on the outside of a building at the state fair grounds.  Every county designed one and it looks pretty cool.  The blocks would range in size from 8" to 36".  I made the 36" block and it is bigger than it looks in the quilt mock up so now I am re-evaluating my plan.
