I still can't get used to 2010.  Guess I'm getting old.  #1 son is recovering well from wisdom teeth removal.  Dan spent the day with him while I drove #1 daughter to the farm to work and have a riding lesson.  Then I continued on to Colchester to find fabric for the next baby quilt.  That always takes a while.  I ended up asking for help from the very kind woman working in the quilting fabric room.  I found enough (hopefully) fabrics to do a scrappy look in Winnie-the-Pooh colors, without actually doing a Winnie the Pooh theme.  I much prefer the saturated colors.  I also found a piece of fabric (a whole $.77 worth) to use to mend #1 son's girlfriend's baby quilt.  I think I will try to fade it a little, since her quilt is faded and that way the new fabric will blend better with the old.
#2 son got straight A's on his report card, so I made Ramen for dinner. #1 son managed to slurp down some noodles with the egg mixed in.  He's still not eating much.  Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
I'm trying to do a little more on Ravelry so I am experimenting with a blog.  We'll see how this lasts.  I suppose I could focus just on the knitting.  The way I'm going with my knitting, I won't have to write many blog posts because I am not getting much knitting done!
We'll see what the next post brings.
