Anyway, she said to tell you the quilt you quilted for her had been accepted at some quilt show." me--"What quilt show?" him--"Hmmm... I can't remember. I think it was north of here." me--" Pacific International? The Puyallup Fair? Can't you remember?" him--"No, I was in the shower." (!!!!!!)" I told her to call you back and she said she was so excited and she wanted to get the spelling of your name right." me--"Thanks Den." *sigh* Still can't figure out who or where!! :P:P:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffq-lar Posted July 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 So strange!!!! I just got a call from one of my favorite piecers who had me do some simple quilting on her Dear Jane. She told me she just heard from an insider that her quilt took top honors at our County Fair, which starts next week but the judging was done today. After we finished squealing at each other I told her Dennis said she had called earlier. Nope, wasn't her. She just heard a few minutes before. Maybe I have more good news coming! Thanks for sharing the excitement with me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmland Quilter Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 I read this to my DH and told him if he ever did that he would either die or be sleeping out with the cattle for a long long time. Right now it's hot out there and stinks ..... This winter it would be very cold and the coons would cuddle up to him and the cattle would drool on him! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anniemueller Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 If I'm expecting a call, I have to ask my DH daily if he picked it up. If it doesn't affect his universe directly, it's out of his orbit and out of his mind:D:D I'm on pins and needles for you Linda:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleshoes Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Mine told someone that I didn't live here anymore. What the heck was that I asked. Oh, he said he thought it was a wrong number. My reply....... Never ever, answer the phone again! lol. I feel your pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On Pins and Needles Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 I don't have this problem too much any more. Mine is so used to the everyone calling on his cell phone, he pretty much ignores the home phone when it rings. Some days this is a good thing, at least they can then leave a message. So, do you think he got the spelling of your name right? Just kidding Dennis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veg-girl Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 This is why in our shop if we have to ring a customer about an order we make a note of the call in our book. It will say :- rang customer, this means we actually spoke to the person concerned :- left message, this means we spoke to an answering machine :- left message with a man, this means we probably spoke to her husband or a son whom we fully expect not to pass on the message and so we will phone again in a weeks time and explain if necessary that it is not our fault that she did not get the phone call This is the result of 13 years experience leaving messages that don't get passed on.
