It's 70 out! I'm sure it's just a tease, we have the rest of March to get thru.
I did 3 more tablecloths yesterday!
And the daily F*ck to the war criminal and his band of thieves and pedophiles.
I had a comment from an anonymous person- they didn't have the courage to use their name- mad because I called the felon a war criminal. I imagine they are one of those who believe crafting should be separate from politics and world happenings. Which it never has been, and never will be. I guess they want to either live in a little bubble, or only read things praising the pedophile. Which this space is not, and never will be.
My husband, father, father in law, and grandfather fought in wars to fight fascism. So I will never condone or revere war criminals, pedophiles, grifters, or mysogeny. If anyone can't deal with that, then this is not the blog for them to read.
And on a more fun note, I spent time in the sewing room yesterday! Amanda requested tablecloths. I sent her pix of some of the big pieces of fabric I have, and she chose several. I made the first 3 yesterday.
Lunch today is at Longhorn Steak house.
And, of course, F*ck the whole administration, and anyone who supports them.
When I was on Facebook yesterday, there were a few articles about new Apple products, and one is a new MacBook called the Neo. So I went on Apple's site, and it's so cute!
I just did another thing, I bought some stock. Steph was telling me about novo nordisk, who makes the GLP-1 Wegovy. Due to the war criminal's actions, the market is down, and it's now $38 per share, so I bought 15 shares. I'm not a big stock market investor. The first time the war criminal crashed the market, I bought 101 share of Royal Caribbean for $22 a share, and 101 shares of Carnival for about $15 a share. My less than 3K investment is not worth over 30K! I plan to leave my stock to my 4 grandchildren. Not a fortune, but a nice gift.
And F*ck the War Criminal, his whole administration, and anyone who supports them.
Rain is good, because it's melting the remaining snow. It makes us thing spring is close!
The scrap afghan, which is about half done, is on hold due to running out of scraps! It's #3 for this year. I gave one to Jacob and Molly for their new-to-them house, and the others are waiting for someone to come along and need/want one.
My son in law Ed texted me a picture yesterday. I had made them a half dozen bowl cozies, and he took one to work and sent me the pic of his lunch bowl in it. I'm always happy to see my creations in use, and my kids and kids in law use them.
F*ck the entire administration and anyone stupid enough to support them.
I go in the sewing room when Lisa the cleaner is here, to stay out of her way. She does that room last, and I vacate it when she's ready. Ralph goes down to the basement and has been sorting and cleaning.
I also started putting together one of the fabric books that I found panels for. The first one is ABC's of Christmas, and I should finish it today. I'll do all 3 or 4, and put them away for future family babies. I've given Boone two, a spring one and a Christmas one.
We met Julianna and family at Cinder Bar for her birthday dinner, and had a wonderful time. When we came out it was really misty, which later turned to fog!
It cleared up by this morning, which was good since I had a grocery order delivered by Walmart. So much better than having to trek to a store, any store.
And more than ever, F*ck the felon, ice, the entire cabinet, the feeb director, and anyone dumb enough to support any of them. Especially the congress, some of whom now think the Constitution doesn't apply anymore.
Not by me! Lisa comes once a month and cleans. Does the kitchen, the bathrooms, dusts, vaccums, mops. She's here for about 2 hours. I've had a cleaner for years. It started when Heather was working but not going to school after high school, and she cleaned instead of paying board. Win win situation. When she moved out, my niece took over the job, and did it for years, til the pandemic. After the pandemic we hired Lisa, and she does a great job.
We are forced to tidy up when Lisa is coming, so she can clean. For years the joke was that having a cleaner kept Ralph alive.
We're looking forward to dinner tonight to celebrate Julianna!
And as always, F*ck the mysogenistic felonious pediphile, those who protect him, ice, the feeb director, and the supporters of this illegal conflict.
Before we went to lunch yesterday, I did a few things in the sewing room, nothing picture worthy.
I fixed a coaster that one seam hadn't caught.
I hemmed the sleeves of a fabric cardigan that Manda made me.
My mom had made a toddler sized denim shirt jacket, I'm not sure who she started it for. The pins in the side seams were so rusted that they broke and I had to use a hemostat to get them out. I did the side seams and hemmed it, and now it can go to Baby Boone.
I sewed the big X's on the bowl cozies that hold the front to the batting. Today I plan to do the darts and maybe start sewing the pieces together.
After lunch, we stopped by the county library. They have a yearly craft swap, which is next week. I had a bunch of panels that I'm not going to ever get to, and some big pieces of corduroy that might have been from Mom's house. They were happy to get the donations.
Last night I watched SNL and the last 3 episodes of Will Trent while I crocheted on the scrap afghan.
And tomorrow is March 3, which is an eventful day for us. It's my late mom's birthday- she'd be 96! And it's our beautiful granddaughter Julianna's 19th birthday. My mom used to get such a kick out of sharing Jul's birthday parties. And sadly, it's the second anniversary of Jul's other grandpop's death.
And as always, F*ck the Felon, ice, the supporters of this Iran mess, and the feeb director.
