Hello and welcome to this week’s edition of my not so crazy life! I’ve had a lovely week with plenty of time for stitching, for long walks in our continued incredible fall weather, had time to do things at home while DH managed a few holes of golf most days. And helped a friend getContinueContinue reading “Sunday Summary #182”

Should I or Shouldn’t I?
I have a dilemma! I have an agreement to buy an item that I’ve dreamed of owning forever: My problem is that it doesn’t have a case. Does anyone know of anyone with a case they might be interested in selling? I use my machines, so this beauty would be going with me to theContinueContinue reading “Should I or Shouldn’t I?”

Public Service Announcement
Just a quick note to let you all know that while I am still managing to rep stitching, I’ve been busy helping friends and family evacuate due to the 3 wildfires in my immediate vicinity.

Sunday Summary #147
It’s been a week! No sewing time at all but I have put in, but I did work 75+ hours! Not bad for an old lady! 😉 None of my numbers changed, or projects were advanced. I haven’t had time to check emails, read blogs or do much but work, sleep, feed my DH andContinueContinue reading “Sunday Summary #147”

It was another fun filled week for me with DH’s appointments, trips to town 5 out of seven days, getting things ready for our fundraiser at the Guild and doing some Golf Course things done, but I managed to sew every day.

Happy Mail Day!
This morning I headed to my Guild to get our last organizing day before our annual fundraiser done. After several hours of sorting yarn and notions, measuring fabric and pricing the lot, we hauled everything out to the shed. The shed is now completely full! We couldn’t fit another shoebox in it! The shed isContinueContinue reading “Happy Mail Day!”

As you probably know 2022 wasn’t the best year of my life, but I can say I will be saying goodbye 2022 with a varied range of emotions.
