I’ve had a sewing project that I’ve been working on for my mother in law and somehow it’s not coming together and it seems that I’m not supposed to get it done because everything is working against me! Have had quite a time with the fabric and colors, so finally switched to a different material so it would show up better. Thought I had most of them done on Friday before we went out of town, but Don looked at them and thought I needed to change colors on a couple of them, which meant I’d have to go get more fabric and almost start over, ugh. So got around to that finally today, after not being motivated at all. Then got to going on it and the power went off at the house, ARGH! If it had happened while the machine was stitching out the design, you would have heard some major screaming and I might not have lived the rest of the day! Plus, the house got hot as well, it was off almost 2 hours. When I called to report it, they gave me a time frame for when it would be fixed; when the time was up, it still wasn’t back on & no trucks had been by to look at it, so I was about ready to look up the number and call again when all of a sudden it came back on….fishy! It was almost like, “oops time is up, we better push the button so it will come back on!” That didn’t make me any happier to have that thought, but at least the air conditioning is back on!
Now to get motivated to start sewing again!

Sorry this project is giving you fits. Take a picture and send me so I have an idea what it is you are doing. You know me and sewing, that’s like me Greek. 🙂
Did you guys get a lot of rain, or did the power just go off for no reason? I bet it was hot, 2 hours without AC. Ick. Especially upstairs, heat rises and all that. Glad it came back on.
Maybe after you finish these, you can sew something “fun”. Something for one of your grandkids, that should be fun! 😀
