Flypaper night

You know, like put it up there and see what sticks?


One of my favourite things to read in other blogs are the random stuff lists. They really give you some sense of who you are reading.


Since tomorrow is Miss Scarlett's birthday, tonight is all about putting the hooded sweater I have been inexpertly knitting together and getting the zipper in. No sewing. It has been a frantic week and at the end of it, here's what's sticking:

• Fake leather is a lot easier to sew than I thought it would be. 
• I hate ripping out anyway.
• My husband does an amazing Cookie Monster voice.
• I picked up the costume this afternoon. 
• I should never go anywhere without a camera.
• Whose dumb idea was it for me to do a double course load this fall to have the winter off?
• Oh me.
• Every spring my mother-in-law calls in from the country to tell us when she sees the first robin.
• Next month she is moving into an apartment block near me in the city.
• I have a yard.
• My daughter's boyfriend from grade nine is in one of my classes.
• He is now bald.
• My sister is the only licensed deaf female fork lift operator in Canada.
• 47 different variations of BMV pattern sales must mean that some new Vogues will be out soon.
• Please.
• I need to sew jackets.
• I need to start my Christmas sewing.
• I want to make something I don't need.
• Have you ever shared a bed with a man who snores and a fox terrier who paces?
• Do you want to?
• My son gave me the "Human Manure Composting Handbook" to read.
• This is not a joke.
• Page two is more interesting than page one.
• Page three is pictures.
• Might not get to page four.
• No pattern proof reader job offers have come in yet.
• I am pretty surprised about that.
• Ordered real leather once.
• The bullet hole at the top got me.
• I have my own skin don't need anyone else's.
• Except as an accessory.
• I want to buy Miss Scarlett Mr. Roger's dvds.
• Tomorrow an invisible zipper in the leatherette.
• Hope I am not too excited to sleep.
