I hit enter after I typed that and it sent it straight to publish. I have to remember not to do that. anyway, i volenteered to make a quilt for the chili cook off raffle. I did ask for help from the auxiliary members though. yesterday one of the ladies came over and helped me cut fabric for a few hours. My ribs started hurting and i couldnt work any more. then I took a pain pill and viola, I was back in working condition. I ended up getting most of the blocks done last night. I worked until 9, on and off. stop for a while, then go sew, stop again, then go sew some more. this morning i went in and started on it again and now i get to sew the blocks together and then the strips together and then the border. I will post a picture whe i get it done. I think I may want to make this again usng just a few colors. i think that would be really cool.
I also had John take down the curtains in the kitchen today so i could wash them. they were so nasty. they had been up for a few years and I hadnt washed them. latley though i have had more time to just look at things. (note to self, stop just looking at things).
My back was hurting earlier, so I stopped sewing again and went and got my nails done. I now we arent supposed to have them done, but i am not at work. they dont look like fakes either, cus they are still kinda short and a natural pink color with one coat of clear. I just love them like this, so i am keeping them.
Not much more to say that I can think of. If i think of anything else, I will jump back on here and tell you. Oh, remember the birds that nested here last year on our porch. well they set up another nest and are sitting on eggs again. the babies should show up within a week i think. we dont mind that nest, its fun to watch them.
Ok, that is really it. Im gonna go check out my facebook page. Found out my son andy thinks the poke option is just funny. I poked him from my cell phone last night to his cell. lol. ok, the pain killer is kicking in and Im rambling. see ya all later.
i just read what i wrote but Im not gonna fix it. the last sentence says it all, the pain killer part.
ReplyDeleteglad to see your on the road to recovery!!
ReplyDeleteBut its so fun to see you rambling about........Take a picture of your nails for me, please. And the quilt, of course. I don't have kitchen curtains yet - don't really need them and haven't found anything that really seemed to suit. But thinking about having to wash them - maybe I won't ever have them.....
ReplyDeleteLMAO!! Sometimes.. I'll go back and read blogs that I wrote.. when I was taking something for pain.. and it just leaves me chuckling! Just watch.. you'll blog something normal.. and out of the blue.. someone will ask if you're TAKING something! lol. Ummmmmm.. No... why?? and then.. they'll say.. Never mind! ROFLMAO!
ReplyDeleteThat's silly that you can't wear nails at work. I mean I know you work with food and all but can't you just wear rubber gloves or something to keep nails or nail polish from falling into food? Enjoy your pretty nails. :-)
ReplyDeleteI use to have the cutest kitchen curtains they were like a cafe style only hung half way up the window and they were cute budgies sitting on a wire.
ReplyDeleteyou woulkd think gloves woukd keep the nails from getting into the chips. we dont even get that close tot he product that much before it goes into the bags.but there are still customer complaints of strange things showing up in the bags. and yes, some people say they got a fingernail. I honestly dont understand how this can happen, knowing the process and all. and the people that do wear nails, also wear gloves to hide them. beleive me, they dont want to get caught.
