Home Alone

[katwil58]

I have the house to myself tonight....my dear hubby has gone out of town to a men's retreat.
Too bad the weather will keep me at home...
Ah, well..I would only go out and shop, spend money and
have to find a place to eat dinner...alone.

Everyone have a great weekend....

God Bless!

I've got the house to myself for about 3 hours right now. Going to get a ME project started! Maybe try a good book alongside if the ghost lets me. Enjoy your private time and have a good weekend.

Well I thought I was going to have a quiet evening at home. My DD has a game tonight and my son that will be 20 in March is always quiet...my oldest daughter called and asked me to babysit her two that are 5 and 12. Need I say more.

My hubby had gone shopping, so I have a few hours to myself right now - just going through my mail and then setting up the machine to do another block of the Chinese Sewing Tryptich.

Sonia what is Chinese Sewing Tryptich? I love it when I can be alone! I'm almost jelous! Tee hee! Actually I am glad my DH was home tonight , he watched the baby and I got to sew. Joyce

It is a set from BFC Creations that I am doing at the moment.

How gorgeous, Sonia

Well, hubby is shopping, too.
Not that it's any use to me except that I don't have to go shopping myself. DD1 and I are down with an upset stomach.
And since I ruined 2 Shirts yesterday I think I will not put the machine on today

[Sonia]

Sorry to hear about your stomach, Shihaya! Is it a runny tummy - if so, take one teaspoon of custard powder on half a glass of water - that should stop it.

At least you can look at your designs today and decide what you want to do tomorrow!

Regarding the Triptych, I am impatient to see the outcome. I have still not decided exactly how I am going to finish it - that decision will be made right at the end, maybe the panels and maybe a wall hanging.

[Shihaya]

Wow, never heard that cure
I'm more concerned about DD1, who's thin as a stick already and DD2 not catching it, because she's still a baby
Thanks for your concern

[Sonia]

That's what friends are for!

[Shihaya]

Consider yourself hugged
hmpf, there should be a hugging smilie
I think I managed to save my daughter's shirt, but I'll have to finish the embroidery by hand and I'm lacking will, energy and thread at the moment.

[Sonia]

Thanks for the hug!

The will and energy will be back tomorrow, so relax today. The thread I am not too sure of!

[Shihaya]

I hope so, but I also fear that it will result in catching up with the housework not done today. Although hubby is a great help, I must say, he's the best. He's man enough to do the laundry.

[Sonia]

I am not sure that I want DH to touch the laundry - that could be a disaster! He will cook tonight so I can get on with the embroidery. He will also feed the birds, which is great. I hope to get quite a few panels done today.

[Shihaya]

Oh, I taught him how to do that using baby-steps. First how to start a machine I had loaded in the evening early next morning, then I would sort it and let him load the machine, now he knows that black undies are not to be washed with white undies

[Sonia]

My husband only knows one thing and that is to load the machine to the top - doesn't matter what goes in! I suppose it is also OK that he is at least willing to do that, but he is also quite willing to do a lot of other things, like leaving me to do my sewing and embroidery! I can even send him to buy thread!

[Shihaya]

I suppose I could do that if I wrote down exactly what I needed, like brand, colour code, lenghts, weight and such.
But now I'm alone at home, too, I sent them to the Zoo. I've set the machine to work (no problems so far) and I'm trying to keep up with ironing. I hate it.

[Sonia]

You just needed some time alone, Shihaya, just you and your machine. What are you embroidering?

I share your sentiments about ironing. Almost none of my clothes need ironing, provided it was hung up properly, so I try not to skimp on the time spent doing that, otherwise I have to iron, and that takes too long.

[Sonia]

By the way, I like your projects and your children are adorable!
