Update

Monday, February 27th, 2006

I still need to add buttons to the vest, but I did the vest buttonholes when I had to do the pants buttonholes. Gee … buttonhole fly … FAR too much work! But the pants—hoorah! They are nearly done. All I have to do is hem them, add the buckle in the back (still need [...]

Sewing Update

Monday, February 27th, 2006

Aside from the joy of buttonholes, and purchasing a buckle for the back, Jameson’s vest is done. The pants are cut out, and after this 30 minute “intermission” I must get back to work. The pants took me over an hour to cut out! I’m sorry, but that’s just ridiculous. But then there ARE 17 [...]

Just received:
Do you Cheep And N3w meedz?
Heh. I do not cheep. Not even on the oboe. I do recall that a reviewer once said we “peeped” though. As to the rest of the question … um … I need help in translating it. Anyone wanna help?

What Makes Us Tick

Sunday, February 26th, 2006

So after putting up a silly blog and then taking it down (and writing about it), I started thinking about how I behave (or misbehave) sometimes. Why would I leave myself open for criticism as I did? And it was really wide open to criticism too, since I posted at a site anyone in the [...]

If I say this enough times will I actually get it done? Hmmm. I wonder!
We did buy the fabrics, although we couldn’t find what the director wanted. Brown fabric with white polka dots for the [...]

Well, Never Mind!

Saturday, February 25th, 2006

I had put a link up here to a place where you could put all my negative traits. When I told Dan about this he thought it might not be the best thing to do. (And he knows me and my insecurities too.) So I’ve removed it. Am I a wimp. Sure. Am I chicken? [...]

Corteo

… was great!
I can’t really describe it, or explain why Cirque du Soleil is so wonderful, but it is. Seeing it is like being taken to a much happier world.

Comfort Food

Thursday, February 23rd, 2006

It was Cream of Wheat for lunch today. I just needed it. No good reason, either. You know how it goes … sometimes you just need comfort food and that’s just the way it is!
Tonight we go see Corteo and I’m quite excited! This is my birthday present. We usually have to celebrate my birthday [...]

Just Thinkin’

Sunday, February 19th, 2006

So I skipped church today. I felt bad about doing so, but there you go. I was so tired from yesterday (you have to see my oboe site if you want to know why) and I just couldn’t get moving this morning. I rested a lot. I managed to eat my exciting shredded wheat for [...]
