Help needed – organizational skills a high priority!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 27, 2008
I’ve reached the point that my sewing/craft room is getting to me! But don’t move anything because I can usually find it and when I try to “organize” and then find something – it’s usually lost because I can’t remember where I’ve put it! I know this is a frequent problem with sewers, knitters, etc. [...]
Latest purchase – so worth the look…..drop spindle and roving!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 25, 2008
Have always thought it would be fun to learn to use a drop spindle and use roving to create your own yarn. Well, this picture shows what I got for 99 cents, yep, people, 99 cents, from www.bidtopia.com The drop spindle, which is an Ashford, and all the roving….shipping was $9.95 but you know what, [...]

Little Maddie down the street delivered my order of Girl Scout cookies this afternoon. I’m struggling with just eating them all right now…..what’s the difference if I eat them all now or take all week to eat them….I’m still eating them, right? Sheesh, I love those darn Samoa cookies!
Dusting by candlight….
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 23, 2008
The older I get, the more I hate housework!!! I was never a Martha Stewart wannabee. So today I decided I really needed to dust because the bottom shelf of the book shelf had dog nose prints on it.
To have a little ambience while dusting, I did it by candlelight! Yes, the candle smelled wonderful, [...]

This is called a subconjunctival hemorrage! I had a horrible coughing spell this morning. Didn’t even know I had done this. Met a friend to go bowling this morning and after we had bowled a few frames, she asked me what was wrong with me eye. I said nothing, it just keeps watering. She encouraged [...]
Little things that tickle me!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 18, 2008
Just came home from shopping at Target. At the stop light was a former police car, still painted like a police car, with a Yellow Cab sign “slapped” on the door and a Budweiser sign on the top of the car. I’m not sure why, but it just struck me funny and I chuckled all [...]

- Ah….life in the fast lane November 10, 2009At least that’s how I like to think of it! Things have been testy around the house since the bionic man got a new knee. Seems like we’ve had lots of repairmen, which ultimately leads to lots of barking. Derby, our found on the streets of Nashville dog, absolutely cannot help himself when it comes to [...]keepingyouinstitches
