Friday Fodder

It looks like today was a good day for me. I got the house clean early and got into the sewing room. I started cutting all the fabric and filling(I dont know what it is really called, I will have to remember next time I buy it.) I got all of it cut, layed out in stackes, then layered it how it needs to be sewn. I did sew the pretty leafy print first, then did the rest as a production line project. I cut the corners off the leafy print placemats, to change up a little. Im not sure I reall like it on these. So now, all i have to do is sew on the edge binding. I still need to get more filling stuff and binding to complete all the fabric I have. I will make american families love placemats one more time. They do make your table look nice though.

I am seeing on the news that there are copycat threats in 28 states. Threats worse than what happened at VTech. We had about five or six counties shut down school yesterday and today cus some crazy guy told his pastor he was going to do something that would make that massacer look mild. thankfully he turned himself in last night, and no one was hurt. He was strung out on meth, but he also had a supply of weapons. Some people are really scary. Like I said in Ems 420 post, i dont get all wiggy over pot, but meth makes you freaking crazy.

This really scared me to see so many states having this problem. with Alex out of my sight across the country, it makes me stress. I couldnt have done anything if this did happen at his school, but now i wonder, if something did happen there, if there was a threat, would the school call the parents. I remember when Alex was being interviewed to be a student there, we were told that we were expected to support our son in any way he needed. For us, that is not a problem. I guess I need to call the college and see if they would contact the parents if there was some kind of emergency. to hell withthe privacy thing, if we are expected to be supportive, then they better be ready to support us in this way. What do ya do.

My friends should be here any minute. Still dont know where we are going. Maybe I will bring my cam and try to get some pics of the night. I just want to be able to have a nice night with them. We used to go to breakfast about once a month, when one of us stressed. We would just say wanna do breakfast, andit was on. Now we have to plan it. At least we still get to go out and visit.

So thats it for now. I am just killing time while i wait for them. See ya all later.
