A Day Off

Hello Ladies, I had a long weekend off. Today I got alot done. The daughter spent the night with a friend, the husband went off to work. I picked up my house and it stayed picked up!! I cleaned out sock and underwear drawers. God love her, but when the daughter does laundry she cant seem to get all the socks to match up. So today, I matched up all socks and threw out the oddballs. Sorted the file cabinet 08 receipts and cleaned up my messy craft room. I have been piling up quite a mess during the holiday season. I really have a nice space up there but realized I only had a tiny desk top area to work because of all the clutter. I had material stacked a mile high. Now I can see more desk area. I'm in the finished attic. The front part is my craft area, with a large counter top area and a large table top behind that. Then there is another room just like my craft area that stores all my Christmas and suitcases, seasonal clothes and next yr. rummage sale stuff. A cluttered space is a cluttered mind. I just can't think clearly when my stuff is out of order. I got a light box for Christmas. I love it. I can transfer patterns onto material nicely. No more holding it up to the window.Haha

I have finished a few more samplers. Coffee stained a couple. Figured I'd sew this winter and look for frames this summer at tag sales! I ordered some papyrus stencils and labels off of eBay. I got the stencils, still waiting on the labels. Should be getting those Tues. or Wed. Ill post then! Well I weighted in again tonight at WW. Ive lost 7 lbs. in two wks. Id like to loose 45 lbs before my 45th birthday in May! If I could try for 10lbs a month. This wk seemed to be alittle bit easier. I'm still hungry alot. My Mom and I go together. We stay for the meetings. I don't get much out of them. I get more momentum if I loose. the first week I only lost 3 1/2 lbs. and I cried all the way home. My first wk. I was hoping for 5lbs. but if I can consistently lose each wk. I'm happy. Those ladies at the meetings, AH! they talk about what triggers emotional eating? Well I could eat all the time. I'm not craving sweets I want some real food. I'm not one to make a weeks meal plan. I wish I could. And I'm bad about fixing them something and then fixing me something different. I don't know, its just such a battle. Well I have school tomorrow, I had better get to bed. have a great week everyone. Hey, we'd take some of that snow here in Kansas I love snow days at home. We have not had one good snow yet this winter. And we usually do by now. It means we will be having snow in April now. LOL!
