I NEED TO DO SOME SEWING

I NEED TO DO SOME SEWING

SERIOUSLY.
I'm in such a funk I don't know what to do with myself.

I have to take Griffin to his Speld Lesson this morning.
After that I am going to do some sewing.... cos it always makes me feel better.

I think I will continue working on my Dresden Plate quilt:

ABOVE:  I just know I am going to love it once it's finished.... so I should pull me finger out and do more on it.  There is such a lot to do... I don't want it to become another UFO.  (unfinished  object).  I've got quite a few of those already.

Yeah, and there's two pairs of Stew's work trousers that have been waiting to be hemmed for MONTHS.  Sheesh I hate hemming.  And mending stuff.  And sewing on buttons.
Anyone else besides me who hates those jobs???

Yeah... I'm waffling... yabbering on about diddly squat.... so I'll bugger off and come back later with something witty ... I HOPE!

ONWARD...

ABOVE: Whoops!  I forgot I'd put all this stuff from out of the Marble Top Unit (which is now upstairs) onto my sewing table/desk.   *sigh*... now I'll have to sort it all out so I can sew this afternoon.

I hope like hell the big desk from Whitianga arrives this weekend!  I NEED IT.  Wonder if they will ring/text to let me know?  Knowing them.. NO.

Success!  I rang several times, left another message... rang their daughter to make sure I was ringing the right number.. and we got a reply!
They MIGHT be going up this weekend to get the stuff. MIGHT. Which means we still don't know for sure.  So, limited success.  Think I will ring them again on Saturday to make sure... it's a long weekend and I am NOT staying home all day for 3 days 'in case' they turn up!

Very pleased with myself.  I finally got Stew's trousers hemmed.  It was really lovely out in the countryside today... hardly a cloud in the sky ... gorgeous temperatures too.
Now I'm home and I'm going to head down to the garage and sew!

SHARINGANCLIFFORD:   OMG Mike... what a long comment!   I didn't even know it was you at first...  the "Xtina" gave it away though!  lol ... for those who don't know my full name is Christina and Mike and his mates always called me Xtina!  lol

End of Day:  I enjoyed my day today... certainly no longer in a funk.  I had a lovely talk with my youngest son over Skype and he is going to move up here in the next few ???.... no clear time frame, but he is coming 'home'.  I am so happy about that.  We miss our Mike so much.
nite nite.
