Life

He’s right.  I’ve been pretty bad about it the past couple weeks.

I’m still buried under all my scraps.

I have six finished quilts tops draped over anything I can drape a quilt top on.  I’d hang them up in the closet, but well …

I still have buckets of scraps everywhere.

It’s a disaster in here.

I want to rearrange part of the room to make for more space and improve some ergonomics.  I just need to move way too much stuff.  Back and knees aren’t too thrilled with this idea.

I’m in the middle of paper piecing 1200 pieces together.  Fun!

I have a million things to really blog about… I just keep forgetting (or really just running out of time…)

I got a new toy last week but I’m afraid to say anything in fear of jinxing it’s perfectness.

I leave you with a picture of a bitty Maeve and the place I’d rather call home.

Holy neglected blog Batman.  It’s been a busy couple weeks…

But we took time out yesterday to get a family portrait done.  Purty, eh?

The kids most definitely love themselves.

Liam warming up from being inside.  He loved reverting back to a 2 month old and being swaddled.  I asked him to smile and this is what I got.

So I’ve been working on finances (ugh, that is truly the worst part about this being a business), a ton of super secret projects and spring patterns (will come out at Spring Market… yes I’m going… eek!).  Lots of fun stuff.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Brining… not just for Thanksgiving turkeys anymore!

Does any other DOT do this?  It seems insane to me. This never happened in VA or NH.

Basically a big truck drives around (followed by a little truck with a big sign saying to stay back… I really don’t think he has to worry about tailgaters) spewing saltwater presumably to prevent icing in storms.

(Uh, yeah I took a picture while driving.  Brownie points to anyone who knows what road it is.)

For a state and county that complain so much about not having any money they sure do seem to waste a lot (can you say socio-economic diversity busing* anyone?).

So please comment!  Does your state do this?  I’ve been scratching my head over this since we moved here.

* no idea who runs that site but it had a decent summary of wcpss busing if you’re bored at work/home and want to read about the county’s stupidity
