Best Laid Plans

I had just finished pinning this quilt and was planning on starting the quilting while DD was at piano. After walking her to her piano lesson I came home just in time to receive a phone call from her brother. He wanted me to come pick him up. I told him he could walk (he was not that far away.) This is when he told me he needed stitches. Fortunately his older brother had recently gotten home with his car. My hubby had mine while his is being repaired. If I had been thinking I would have grabbed this to work on while I waited for the doctor. I finished quilting it this weekend. But I was in mother mode and just needed to get my N to the doc. So Alex and I drove to where N had been skateboarding. We load him and his skateboard into the car. While listening to a description of what had happened from his friends. Then head to insta care. Calling hubby on the way to let him know what’s up and to tell him he needs to hurry home before DD gets back from piano and is home alone. When we get to insta care a nurse comes out to look at N’s wound. She asked how it happened and the ever helpful Alex tells her I beat them. The very savvy nurse told him apparently not enough. To which I responded ya your still conscience. (Not more than a month ago Alex was in the same insta care getting stitches because he cut his hand at work.) Oh the joys of being a mother of boys. Fortunately N only needed two stitches, but he has a scratch from his lip across his cheek to the end of his jaw. Just in time for school pictures. Oh well, it will make for good memories later. So today I got to my quilting. More daisies of course. And thankfully no phone calls requiring medical attention. Oh by the way Snips & Snails meets Sugar & Spice is up on my webpage now.
