BAMQ BOM Begins & Home Chaos Reigns

It was down to the wire, but I got my first block done for the BAMQ BOM, this month was...HSTs. 
Yes, it's a bit odd, but the idea I had was to turn around one of the two-HST sections each time and it'll be a whole different looking block. Yes, these are two of my newly purchased Portland Trip fabrics, good noticing. They're going to be part of the BAMQ BOM quilt top I'll be making month by month in blacks and grays.
 I didn't get to go the meeting on Saturday where the new month's BOM was presented because of these two jokers. Oh yeah, someone (me, it was me) made the yearly vet visit with the double trouble crew. A two-cat appointment for a change. Sorry, Korben.
Sorry, LeeLoo. We had to dismantle her carrier to get her out so that the vet could check her out. Both of them yelled about not liking being in the car on the way there and on the way back. Thankfully it's only a once a year thing. But I do believe they were easier to handle together, especially with DH along as helper.

Then I got to go home and empty out the refrigerator (and freezer) to get this--DEFROSt IT! Yes, that's the warranty company's solution before investigating whether or not it needs repair (same symptoms as last year's debacle). I honestly thought this defrosting business was a thing of the distant past...I remember my mom doing this close to 60 years ago. Hope it works! I'm not happy with having to entirely discard the contents of my freezer once a year because it stops being freez-y enough. Boo, don't ever buy a GE if you can avoid it. They're on my Never Again list.
