I watched Game 5 of the World Series tonight. I was home alone cheering on the Red Sox, who won 3-1 over the Cardinals, which puts us up three games to two. The next game is Wednesday in Boston. The Red Sox have had a very good year.
The flowers in the barrels at the edge of my driveway have had a good year, too. They apparently have not received the memo that autumn has arrived and colder temperatures are on the way. I can see the flowers from the treadmill. I took more photos today because I can't believe there's still so much color ~
I just realized that the same green, orange, pink, and yellow are the colors in the napkins and tablecloths I am making, pinning up the hems while I watch baseball. It became obvious during the last round of company that I need more table linens. Once these flowers are finished I will enjoy the color scheme inside.
There's progress to report on the Harmony Quilt. The back is together, pieces coming together better than I expected they would. I have a general idea of the fabric I want to use when I start a quilt, and the size and shape of the pieces, but beyond that I arrange and rearrange the pieces as I go to produce the final creation. I need to see how the colors and shapes fit together before I can see the big picture. I will have photos to share soon.
With my daughter's help I have managed to transfer my bookmarks from iGoogle, which will be no more November 1, to the desktop computer. Tonight I started researching how to move those bookmarks from one computer to another. I don't think it will be hard once I know what to do. I don't have a lot of confidence when it comes to technology. With each success, I feel emboldened.
Maybe that's the secret to confidence ~ try more, have more success, feel more confident.

Funny, with the return of white outside I've been craving bright colours inside. Pinks and oranges have been my choice of late. The arrival of winter means I have no more excuses - I'm going to have to dust off our treadmill.
I've noticed that the flowers in my garden perked up a lot with the cooler weather also. And then...the frost came around, that wasn't a nice thing for it to do.

Excellent advice -- I'll keep it in mind today. And lovely color combo; let us see the linens when you're finished.
I'm a technophob myself:) But help is just a google search away, and that's how I've found out how to do lots of stuff involving computers. I am not a fan, but I think it was Detroit (my town) against Boston (your team)? Anyway, my husband muttered last night that "Tigers had a better team and played better." when they showed Red Sox coverage. I don't see why Detroit didn't win if my dear heart's opinions are correct, lol. We visited Fenway once. I may not be a fan but my husband has enough sports fan for both of us:)
Oh and yes, would love photos of the linens as well as quilt:)
