Things are feeling like they're a little out of control over here again. My mom is visiting for five weeks and everything else has be to squeezed in inbetween. I love having her here since I only see her every 18 months or so but, boy, is the routine messed up.
June three by three blocks "almost" done.
June Sew Connected 3 blocks not even started (they're on the list for today)
A runner for my mom that is giving me a load of trouble. I don't normally sew silky slippery fabric.
The above has all lead to this on the kitchen table:
I try to clean it up every night so I can start fresh in the morning.
Did I mention we're having the house painted and I'm cutting all my shrubs away from the walls, which looks AWFUL!?
Maybe this has something to do with my mood. Where's the sun???
At least the hummingbirds seem to be enjoying their food.
Thanks for listening. I feel SO much better now.
(It really isn't all that bad. I just have to breathe deeply.)

ReplyDeleteFIVE weeks you say!!!????!! I DO love my mom, but 5 days would be more than I could handle. Wow, you must have some great relationship with your mom! That is so great. I'm sure she will help you get a lot accomplished too.
