Wow, I'd not realized that so much time had slipped by since my last post. I've been super busy with spring craft fairs and getting my knitted items stock back up. Now we'll be able to get back on track.

I ran across even MORE crafting sites ...

The Cat Who ...


... slept in the sink. I just HAD to share this with you! Found my cat, Tagalong, nestled into the sink in the spare bathroom! I didn't notice her when I first walked in, so her 'MEOOWW" startled me. Dashed to the craft room, grabbed the camera and she was still there when I got back. Which in itself was amazing!

So Much For Winning The Battle!

Yesterday, I felt really-really good about all the work I'd done in my crafting area, and only had to tidy up the living room and get the sorted stuff put away into their various tubs. That was to be today's long, orderly, neatly done process.

The DISH TV guy was supposed to show up 'sometime this afternoon' to do something with the dish and the connections. It's 8:13 a.m. right now and he's here - got here around 7:50! ACK! Thank goodness he worked on the dish itself before needing to come inside.

I waved my magic wand and commandeered the hubby and a neighbor who was unfortunate enough to be over here so we could do a quick shuffle of all those things piled in the living room. Thank goodness it all fit into the spare bedroom so he could GET to the tv and the box. Before we trudged down the hall with our loads, they were NEATLY piled! They're not so neatly piled now. Sigh.
