Stilly, we only work on it together on Tuesdays. And last week we had to rip out what had been sewn together, fix it and do it over. The rows (except for one fo which I have to bring back another square -- Carol trimmed one too small) are put together with strips in between. Tuesday she'll start sewing the rows together with strips in between. She'll need my help in maneuvering it as it gets bigger. There are nine rows of seven squares each -- 63 squares total.

Plumber replaced all the cellar PVC pipe with PEX yesterday , including to the laundry room and kitchen. New shut offs everywhere. He'll be back today to pick up the large adjustable wrench he left and a Sawsall that he left someplace.

Drove around in big circles yesterday. Went to Dover Goodwill before my doctor's appointment in Somersworth up the road. (She reassured me that the nicked nerve from my blood draw last week will, indeed, heal and the burning, tingling in my finger when I extend my arm will go away.) Went home and had just enough time (hour and a half, actually) to eat a light supper and send some emails before going back to Dover (it's a half hour drive) for a singaround.

Oh! Filled up the tank and saved 16 cents a gallon! I almost always buy Irving gas because of their Rewards system and random rollbacks in the summer. (I got 20 cents a gallon off last time I filled.) I'd driven past four Irving stations and checked the prices against those of the station on Rte. 9 where I buy most often. But the station in Dover (which I'd being going past again when I went to the singaround) was 4 cents cheaper, so I figured I'd stop there later. Then, on my way home, the one on Rte. 125 was 6 cents cheaper -- so I pulled in. Then, at the pump, I got 10 cents off -- rewards.

Ya take it where you find it...
