How can Janis get me into so much trouble?

06 May 2008

So I say to Janis, 'how about another retreat? Are you up to it?' Of course she's 'up to it'. Janis is always up to it! Then I confessed that I'm taking names...these people have no idea what we're going to make them do, but they're willing to sign up for anything going. Gals, I like your spunk!

Just when I think I'm in control of my world, Janis phones. How about a booth at the plowing match? Well I don't know, that's a little out of my comfort zone ya know. Come on, it will be fun! I know Janis fun, starts at 5am.....Wendy fun starts at noon...SIX days of Janis fun may very well kill me, but I'll give it a try...see this weary face....

Let's recap - Plowing match runs from September 16-20 with set up the day before - in Teeswater....I don't know where Teeswater is, maybe Janis does...hope to see everyone there, PLEASE

Retreat - September 26-28 from here....Spirit Rock Motel/Mother's Fabric in Wiarton....hopefully I can still find that after SIX days of Janis fun! Still spaces available for those with a sense of humour.

Mariners Compass Class

30 Apr 2008

Mariners Compass Class was yesterday. I must say, we have a great bunch of die-hard quilters. Barbara arrived after having only 2 or 3 hours of sleep, and accomplished as much as the well rested quilters! Norma came flying in the door first thing....I really mean she came in flying and landed flat out on the stone floor! She skinned her knee and her knuckles, but had a great time sewing all day inspite of it. There's something to be said for what my Grandma would call a lazy man's load. You know, trying to carry it all at once instead of making two trips. Grandma was right, eh Norma? Theresa stayed an extra hour or so, but she went home with her compass almost finished! Juliann and Audrey did bang up jobs. I can hardly wait for show and tell night.Mariners Compass Class

Spring Cleaning

23 Apr 2008

Let's try again. It's been very warm here. The sunny days make a woman's mind turn to thoughts of ..... spring cleaning. What did you think I was going to say? Shame on you. As we (that would be I) get ready for our biggest sale of the year, we (me) find that it's the perfect time to clean. We are moving things around to find a home for 1100 pounds of fabric. What was I thinking? It's a lot more fun to clean at the fabric store. Fondling fabric is always a good thing, right? Please explain to me why fly specks are black when they are on my kitchen ceiling, and white when they are on the black stone floor? I don't get it. It's all one property. It can't be different species of flies....what's the deal?

My husband just wandered through and he's looking for a recipe for chili sauce. Save me....
