This morning Vince was ready to start the tile backsplash behind the stove. Oh, yes! I was glad he mentioned it without me hounding him about it. I love my husband but we do not work well together. We're so different. Vince wants to think about everything, draw it out. If there are three ways to do something, he wants to come up with six ways, then draw it out, calculate to see which way is ...
The Countdown
I'm trying NOT to get too excited about the stove because I've heard many stories of stoves arriving dented or having parts that don't work but let's just be optimistic and assume it will be here as scheduled and everything will work and be perfect. Because it's supposed to be delivered on Wednesday, I do not have a lot of meals left to cook on the electric stove. I just looked at our menu ...
Harvest Tina
I love her! For some reason, I don't have the very last line of the chart. It's supposed to have 92 rows but I only have 91 so I adjusted the count on Pattern Keeper, thinking it was a mistake on the chart but now I see that I need some little "stems" coming off the bottom of the chart so I'll just guess where they go and add them.. All I have left to do is fill in a few blanks with one ...
Yesterday in Review – September 19, 2021
Mostly I stitched. I've been watering plants for a friend who's been gone so I did that in the morning, heated up more leftovers for lunch - that was the end of the BBQ chicken, baked beans and mushroom orzo. Vince stayed downstairs most of the afternoon watching football. At one point I made a pot of popcorn and took some down to him. That was nice of me. :) Additions: Friday I think ...
Buy All Things
I was watching this flosstube today. I don't know why I clicked on #17. I watched her first one, then I thought I was clicking on her most recent one but now I see that her most recent one is #27. You don't need to watch the entire video . . unless you just want to . . but when she said "Buy all the things!" I cracked up. I think she pretty much sums up my philosophy about stitching and not ...
Another “Why Did They Do That?”
When I ordered my last grocery order from Walmart, they were out of the giant roll of freeze paper (which Vince and I both use for different things besides the typical use!) and they were out of the mouthwash I like. I have the Walmart+ account so I can get free shipping on anything I order from WM online . . so long it's sold by WM. I shouldn't say "anything" . . there may be things that don't ...
