Boring life.

Yesterday I should have gotten my parking pass for the new location. But I forgot! So I decided that I will make a special trip to get it today. The line was extremely long yesterday so today should be better.

I planned to be there at 8:00am but I got up late. I did make it there a little after 9:00am.
I got the permit ,caught the bus home, had the RX for Provera filled made it back home and then waited for the repair guy come to fix the bathroom sink.

I had prepped the sewing studio to finish up some the repair jobs that I had started but I know I do not actually start sewing until after 8:00pm. That is the assigned time each day. Some days it happens some days it does not. Today I am under contract to finish the dress pants because that will put $10.00 in my pocket. My customer needs them Sunday.

I finally did find the right kind of terry cloth to use for the back of the bibs. When I went to the fabric store I was discouraged by the roughness of the terry cloth fabric. So I was very happy when I found the terry cloth knit fabric. It much softer and I can see it being use to wipe a baby face and not the regular stuff. So I pre washed that fabric last night so when I am finish with the pants I can finish the baby bids that I have promised.

I received samples of my fabric designs, I love them but not greatly happy with them. I need to work on working with Paint.net. I also have been searching for 2 days for the design that I had created 3 years ago. I have contact several screen printer in the area and they were all out of my price range and I would have had to order by the bolt of fabric not the yard. I am trying to recreate the image but its foggy in my mind. It was a cartoon drawing of me. I loved it and stitched it on to a white canvas bag that I made which I also cannot find. I have too much junk. But I am sure to find it this weekend not sure why this weekend would be any better than any other but hope spring eternal.

Tomorrow pictures.

My discovery!

As a little girl I did not play with dolls, did not play house. I climbed trees and explored how things worked. Tried to make my bike do things it was not meant to do. My mother complain when I was a toddler she would dress me in frilly dresses to play and I would prompty find mud or dirt. My mother and father had a loving relationship but I really did not see my father much. He worked the night shift. I had a close relationship with my mother. She taught me to crochet and make clothes. She kept a beautiful home and was a great cook. I felt that my father did not appreciate her enough so I decided that I would not get married and deal with someone who did not appreciate me. When my mother died it totally crippled my father. I realized just how much he appreciated her. When she first died he would just sit in a chair and just stare for hours. Finally I started talking to him and he revealed just how much he needed her. Then I decided that I should not get married because I wou...

WHY DID I DO THAT?

We were awakened at 6:40 with the ringing of the telephone. Usually when the phone rings my Hubby turns to me and says " Are you expecting a call?" This time he just got up and answered the phone. His daughter was calling to tell him that her grandfather was vomiting blood. We immediately got up and dress and was at the house before the ambulance was there. I just stood back and stayed out of the way. But that did not last long because Hubby did not know what to do. His father started with the " I don't want to bother anybody?" crap that he says when he thinks he is about to die. I just asked some questions. When did you start vomiting blood? 4:30 How many times did you vomit? Once maybe twice Where were you when you vomited? In the bathroom it's in the garbage can you can look at it. I went back into the living room and waited by the door for the ambulance to arrive. I told Todd tell the ME exactly what he said about vomiting. ME arrived and went to work. H...
