Well GEEZ!

I got up and got right at it this morning, getting on the phone to Margaret to make sure she needed me to take her to the doctor. She said she thought her appt was on Tuesday, but she went and checked and said maybe I was right. So I got Angelina on the bus, came back and picked up hubby and zipped down and picked up Margaret. We run over to the next town and I went in with her. Well it seems she was right; her appointment WAS on Tuesday! DUH! So I took her back home and we hurried off to PT.

Afterward I went back and picked her up (her request) and we went to lunch. That was nice.

Then after I got back home from that I decided to tackle my linen closet. OMG that was such a nightmare!! Stuff was packed and crammed everywhere. There were 3 sewing machines in there!! LOL So everything came out and I am getting rid of probably 1/4 of it anyway. Rearranged what was left and moved a few things out that didn't belong (like fabric; what's that doing in there? LOL).

So after that, Angelina got off the bus and hung out till her mom got home. Meanwhile I worked on my insulated curtain again. I did finish one; but had a different idea about how to put it up. I used a spring rod and put in on the INSIDE space of the window! That way I only have to make one curtain per window. I installed the first one and it seems to work pretty good. The only thing is I won't have ANY light in my room, cuz it will block the whole window. I may make the second window a bit different. I like to have SOME light coming in! And with no light I do sleep later in the morning, which is ok on the weekends, but not during the week while Angelina needs to be taken to the bus.

I got my shipment today of jalapeno flavored almonds that Nan told me about. YUM! They are really tasty. Hubby and Angelina do NOT like them, so they are safe. :^) Well except they're not safe from ME! I'm a mindless muncher, and have had quite a few of them today. I will have to pace myself, or else I'll never lose any weight! I am sad to report that I did not lose one pound in the past week. Actually I'm quite ticked about it. I've been watching what I eat, making better food and portion choices and not munching in front of the computer (well except for those almonds....).

On the 26th I am going to a red hat lunch, it's supposed to be a tea party at the newly opened bakery in town. It sounds like fun!

Well my foot is still sore today. I'm not happy about that! But it doesn't hurt quite as bad as it did yesterday.

This is a pic of the quilted fabric I am using for the insulated window covers. Next I'll put up the pics of the backside, so you can see how it was quilted. This was prequilted material; I'm not sure if it was a bedspread or something (I picked it up at a yard sale, but it's brand new), but I got it in strips about 3 feet wide. I've had it hanging around awhile, and decided I was finally going to do SOMETHING with it.

Back side.

I should be in there working on the next one but I don't feel like it. And if I make myself do something like that when I don't feel like it, I won't do a good job.

I do however need to go get the 3 sewing machines out of my room now. One is on the bed and 2 are on the floor in front of the bed. Plus there are still a few things to take care of in the bathroom that came out of the linen closet, so I'd better get at it!
