Frolicking through a Pandemic

Bonnie Hunter's "Frolic!" Mystery started off well at Thanksgiving, but when January arrived I was side tracked.  Our local Historical Society had a major change in leadership, and I found myself right in the middle.  I was elected by the Board of Directors as (volunteer) Curator, and have been spending nearly every free minute at the Museum.  We have a daunting task ahead of us!  I won't go into all the details, but suffice to say that there are years of work ahead to be anywhere near where I think things should be.

Then, Pandemic!  My excuse to stop burning myself out.  The Museum is closed for several weeks as our City tries to slow the progress of COVID-19 influenza.  Yesterday the sewing machine was turned on again and I tried to regain some peace.  My husband even noticed I had not been sewing lately.  He walked past and said, "That thing still works?"  Very funny, dear.

Frolic! is now up to 22 blocks completed.  Three more to go, and then I can begin the partial blocks around the edges.
