Waitin' for the cool down...

Another beautiful day in paradise...and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. But the cold spell is a comin' and I am GLAD! Don't get me wrong...I like summer and heat and all, but I like cooler, too. I was born and raised in Maine and lived in Wyoming. I have had enough of any temperature that is below zero!

Yeah...yeah...I know it's only a temporary cold snap...( I'm talking 45!!! degrees here!) but it's not 90 after all. And I know that is the LOW...but humor me! IT'S A COLD SNAP!!!

It's movie time again. A sad state when you have 100 channels and NOTHING is on! So we are watching Another Stakeout. I was going to work on a few stocking ornaments...but the moment has passed. Montana Sara (her name is Sara and she is from Montana..catchy, eh?) came over and we decided to recreate the ebay moment of finding vintage reproduction material (for the aprons). Let me back up. I was 8% sure that I had actually ordered material. Well....now I can't find when or where that I did...sooooo...we looked on a few fabric sites...and found some. I'll settle on a few pieces. It's weird...you buy it by the fat quarter, but can get it 'by the contiguous piece' (as quoted by the seller). Isn't that 'by the yard'?? Go figure...

I just drank a glass of Tonic water. I am sure it would be much better with gin in it...but here's the reason I opted for T water-neat. I have fybromyalgia. I think I mentioned that before...and also the fact that I thought it was fake??? Well...guess what..it's not. Sorry to all those fellow sufferers. Anyway, I think I am calcifying my liver with Motrin/aspirin/Aleve or have a kidney stone the size of a can of refried beans...cuz I hurt. Oh yeah...the tonic water...well...my legs are killing me, too! Not necessarily restless legs. Just screaming ass aches in the legs.

I was watching Getting Fresh with Sara Snow and she was talking natural remedies. She said that quinine is great for leg aches ( I knew that...didn't DO that...but I knew that) and perhaps a glass of tonic water which contains...you guessed it! quinine...would help. So I am trying it. I'll let you know...

Well...it's time to get wet all over and then prepare to press the BUY button on ebay! What an exciting night! Have a great one! Nite...

  1. Oh, you got 'Bird by Bird' by Anne Lamott. That's great. 'Operating Instructions' is hilarious. Don't let some of those blurbs mislead you. She's a clean and sober Christian, but in an irreverent, non-dogmatic way. I ordered Sarah Bird's 'How Perfect is That' to my local library. Looking forward to it. I want to see pictures of all these projects you got goin! Fabric, yarn, hats, felt, aprons, wow.
