Daily Notes- December 5th- Saturday


 About Time.  That I got an upbeat prompt.   Yesterday.  I forgot to press the publish button.  We had to go drop off the car (guy fixing the car- no mask).  Etc etc  

and I walked away and never came back to the computer desk.  Hardly can believe that.....but true.  Everything was okay. No one killed any one.  The tree almost fell off the car coming home.  That was exciting.

So Dance.  I have just the music to play.  If I had Willie Nelson's Stardust CD- that would be perfect. Singing....... Crazy. But the prompt is not sing- it's dance.

Husband has Pot Products from the Health Food Store (daughter took him shopping-interesting girl).  One for muscles and the other nerves.  After the first application- I have been wearing surgical gloves to apply the products........daughter recommends vigorous hand washing.

I think (know) our Christmas Tree- in the garage- is too tall and way too heavy.  And I honestly don't think the two of us are going to be able to do anything with it.  I don't even know where the stand is. In the Attic somewhere. Or the box of ornaments or the box of lights.  

I didn't put them away.   And he might never remember...... might be Time to just stop having a tree. A real tree. Or hire someone to stand it up and take it down. 

I was up in the Attic looking for the little patchwork Trees I had pieced many many years ago.  Was thinking they would be cute as Holiday Placemats.  Might work as a potholder.  But would need sashing to get up to 9 inches.  I am going to take apart the already bound potholders so I can trim them to 9 inches square.  It's how I roll.  I don't care how much extra fussy work it requires- I just think 9 inches square is the better "look".  Welcome to my Virgo World View.

I now have an index card with binding instructions.  Right here. But might need to get a fresh blade installed in the rotary cutter.  Wow- I hope I remember how to do that.  It's been years!!!!! And I had to change the bobbin thread- it went very well.  That was a  welcome surprise.  Its the wrong color but who the hell cares???? Not me.  It's the color I have in the drawer. Not black.  A lot of black bobbins in the drawer.  Must have inherited them.
