armed forces quilt

Sorry I have 2 pictures of the quilt but they are not in the computer and I don't know how to scan. I haven't had time to venture into that area. The quilt was won today by a woman who seems to win most of the quilts they raffle off. They made $105 bucks on it. I now have one quilt I brought home to finish tieing and it is sold. This woman also brought 2 baby quilts.

We had an armed forces day at the center. It was a support your troops tribute. We had 4 marines there and they told a little story of what their duties are in the marines. 2 of them have been in Iraq. Then each branch was called up one branch at a time to stand behind these men as a symbol of support. Of course I was there for the Navy. By the way have Haley put on the blog this memorial that my church is doing to honor deceased service men on May 25. I have a copy of it but she knows how to put it on the blog and once again its scanning. If anyone wants their own copy just let me know.

All afternoon I played bingo. It was bingo party day. I paid for the first 2 hours and the next 2 hours were free with pizza and pop. I really worked hard all day as you can see. Needless to day I'm not having any dinner tonight. I started the day off with biscuits and gravy. Lunch was pork chop and rice and then the pizza and cake. Lunch was cupcakes all decorated with red,white, blue stuff and then it was someones birthday so we had another cake. Life is so hard. ha ha

Tomorrow a group of us are going to Scottsdale to see Cathism 3. It is hilarious. I know I have the spelling wrong. Its a play of how the nuns used to be many years ago.

The doctor moved my stress test up and I went yesterday for it. Will be another week til I get the results. Trying to find out why I get so out of breathe so easy. First they take a picture of heart when I first get there and inject something into the IV. Then they take nuclear pictures of the heart at rest Then the stress test. This is the rough part. I don't know if I could have gone much longer onthatthing. I was so out of breather and my arms and legs so very tired. Now back to that nuclear test again with the heart being stressed. The last 3 days I have felt pretty good. I have atrial fibrillation.
