Flypaper thoughts San Antonio edition


  • Really nice day walking around San Antonio Texas with my husband in a newly acquired cowboy hat and Daisy in a stroller
  • Yes he did
  • It was hot and he needed a hat 
  • And the next thing I knew
  • Suits him actually
  • Have you ever been there?
  • The downtown is like a limestone surface of streets
  • And walk down some stairs and it's Venice
  • River walks, sidewalks along narrow water no guardrails
  • Really like Venice
  • Who would have thought?
  • It was so beautiful I held myself back
  • Didn't suggest we find that fabric store
  • Filed that away in my personal account as a behavioural credit
  • Sure to be cashed in
  • Do you know there are roads in Texas that have an 85 mph speed limit
  • How good are you at serging in clear elastic in shoulders?
  • Working on a new top in the rv
  • Always tape my shoulders to stabilize but should do the elastic
  • When I try it I cut it into ribbons
  • Just lay in down and serge over it says Trudy
  • It lies down on her serger but jumps up on mine
  • Exactly the sort of thing I am in the rv to work out
  • In private and in another country
  • So if it takes forever to do right
  • We can keep it to ourselves
  • Interesting top
  • Sort of flared with pockets
  • For some reason it reminds me so much of one of the little bags old ladies have for clothespins
  • Like I wish I had
  • You know the ones with the bias binding that hang on a hanger
  • Well this one is going to hang on me
  • I am going to find it very handy when I hang out the wash at home
  • There is a man in this state park who rides a recumbent bike
  • He has a pole mounted across the back
  • And two Dobermans attached one at each end
  • Sort of like propellers on a plane
  • They fly around here while he whispers to them
  • Never have seen his wife yet
  • Probably in the camper wondering how she got here in her life
  • So glad I am not the mother with five small kids in a tent
  • Or do I wish I was
  • On second thought not sure
  • Pretty sure about the man on the recumbent bike
  • Lots of DYI around here but none involving flying dogs 
  • Yet
  • More like cooing to Daisy in a dog stroller
  • Short legs can only sightsee so far
  • My son in Austin keeps texting me
  • More fabric arrived here mom
  • Circling around back to Austin for 3 weeks
  • Staying in the vicinity means he can still live his life with us in town
  • When he can duck out and do that
  • Gives me time to think about clear elastic too
  • And find that fabric store
  • Believe I have a credit
