Morning!

DH apparently has overworked his shoulders. Duh! Thanks for the well wishes, he is doing better,just needs to take it easy for a while, which I doubt will happen.
I've been dyeing ribbons and working at the rental place so not much sewing going on around here.

The weather has been beautiful. 75 degrees and sunny! Makes me want to ride a horse along a country gravel road. I am so glad to have those fond memories of owning a horse. What is it with girls and horses anyway? I'll have to settle for a bike ride with Angell in the front basket these days. I'm content with that. :-)

I am trying to think of a great September blog giveaway.......as soon as I come up with something, I will post it.

I got hooked on playing "Farmville" on Facebook...not a good thing. It is addictive and I am already at a loss for time. I think I may sell it,LOL. Sell the farm!

I hope you all have a great day and I hope to have something fun to share with you soon.

Just breathing today

Whew! " Where did the summer go?" ..I hear it almost daily and I am sorry but I don't have the answer. I can't believe it is Sept 1st already. All I can remember this summer is painting one white wall after another. Why did so many tenants have to move all at once????? One more day in the kitchen and one more duplex to paint then I can call it quits for this year. Too bad it was during summer, I sure hated to waste one day indoors. I tried to make up for it but naturally the weather didn't cooperate. Happily I cannot finish my painting until DH fixes a few wall areas. :-) Not complaining about that at all!

Today I am taking time to breath. This morning I ran to the store for a few things and I just finished laundry, so now it is "ME" time. I will sit by the pool and browse the newest issues of Romantic Homes and Victoria magazines with a huge glass of ice water and grapes. This afternoon I will sew a bit on the last puzzle pieces and make a few nests before working on the commissioned wall hanging.After dinner we are going for cell phones. Yes, I said it, I am getting a cell phone. DH said it was just too hard to contact each other with working on MIL's rentals, plus he wants our mom's to be able to contact us at any time. I guess it is time. Besides, Willa said I was important enough to have one :-)...thanks Willa.

So, September begins.

Autumn crispness is in the air, and I will soon be settled in my class room ready for  classes and meeting new ladies with smiling faces and the desire to create.
I made some bead soup for the class room and sequin stew. This is really a lot of fun gathering for students to pick and choose goodies to play with. I almost wish I were a student taking a class......too fun!
Here is the newest Hobby Lobby coupon for you !
Have a great day.
