Sewing with Susan</b>
Thanks to Facebook, I knew that our young friend Susan needed an iron and a sewing machine. She went to Sarah’s for the iron, and came to our house to use the sewing machine. My trusty little Singer has served me well for nearly three-quarters of my life (though, as I don’t do much more than sew straight lines, I don’t ask much of it). It was great to have a visit with Susan.

I’m running; I’m running; I’m done</b>
I had an absolutely fantastic day yesterday, including a lunch date with childhood BFF Catherine and attending a talk given by Chicago Tribune photographer Scott Strazzante (http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/shooting-from-the-hip/). [I also got laundry and some volunteer work done.] But, by late afternoon, I had a wicked headache. So, I skipped cake-decorating class in favor of climbing into my PJs and watching TV with Number Two Son, Adam. As you can see, Tom was very productive at class. I’m going to have to catch up!](https://photos.smugmug.com/Project365/2011-November-Launch/i-3VtXLq5/2/be3be5c0/Ti/Project%20365%20069-Ti.jpg)

A well-oiled machine</b>
Usually, NTS accompanies Tom to Illini football games on Dads Weekend. [I don’t “do” football in November in the Midwest.] This year, NTS was in Terre Haute, running the open race at Nike Cross Nationals, Midwest Regionals. I agreed (against my better judgment) to go to the game. We tailgated with the fantastic Zs. Mike and Jill have quite the tailgating system, and the car-packing is as much an art as the set-up itself. I won’t mention how the Illini played that day. . . .](https://photos.smugmug.com/Project365/2011-November-Launch/i-WXfGsd5/2/67024c0d/Ti/2011%2011%2012_Z%20tailgate%20haul-Ti.jpg)
