A little BEHIND...

Not that behind...LOL! I've gotten a little behind in my sewing, blogging, housework etc, etc. The last few weeks have be full of ups and downs amongst family, friends, work & travel etc. Fortunately it hasn't all been bad. I tell you life happens and you just have to deal with it. So, hopefully this weekend will be the most normal weekend I've had in a few weeks. I hope to get caught up on all of the above. When I don't get to sew or do the things I enjoy most I still read my favorite blogs and that gives me hope and inspiration for a better day. I thank you all for that inspiration when life seem to overwhelm me. That's why I'm so glad to be connected to all of you through blogging. Keep doing what you do! I hope to have something to post soon, I'll be trying to finish my jacket & pants from this post. Until then...



Happy Sewing!
