Monday, so busy here!

 

Hubs burned himself  BBQing yesterday.  Not bad but bad enough that I would not let him do the dishes.  Putting your hands in hot water with a burn is not fun.  He is much better today. I was not out watching him, so I don't know what happened, I will be more careful to watch next time.  I don't know if his shaking had anything to do with it, but he had some blisters and it must have really hurt. One more worry for me as we do like to cook outdoors in the summer.

After I finished mopping floors yesterday and getting all prepped for dinner. I had about 3 hours to either take a nap or do something.  I try not to sew for clients on Sunday.  I am such a workaholic I try to take the Sabbath seriously.  As this is a day of rest.  Although I will do service on Sunday,like hubs mowing the next door neighbor's lawn.

I had purchased several remnants of outdoor fabric at 80% off plus when you buy what is left on the bolt you get another 10% off.  Outdoor fabric can be quite expensive as it repels some water and does not fade in the sun.So having the time I did some sewing for me.  I recovered 6 cushions, and 6 pillows for the back yard furniture. It only took about an hour and a half and that project is done.

We turned on the water Saturday, so now our water bill will go up, but It was 80 in the house so I turned off the heat and f it continues to stay warm our heat will go down.

Today is going to be busy.  I am so happy to report that in the last few days several piles of things have come into the shop. Not wedding dresses, or prom dresses.or bridesmaid but piles of clothing.  Pants and vacation clothes and tops are coming in, so I feel like I am back in business.  It is so nice.  I have been so worried about how I am going to pay off the house faster and this takes off some of that pressure.  Now I realize I am probably going to be complaining about getting too busy, but what are blog friends for?  Complaining to correct?

I woke up last night about 1:30 after falling into bed about 9 and my shoulders were just throbbing, my whole body hurt.  SO I did something unusual.  I took 2 aleve and ate a little bit of fruit salad to coat my stomach, then was right back to sleep and I feel great today. 

Kelsa is here and Hubs is having a ball with her.  I am going to get some sewing done!

1. fill my cash envelopes

2. fix straps on a dress (client was just in for second fitting.)

3. hem 4 shirts

4. hem 3 pants

5. fix 2 missionary pants

6. fix a hole in a shirt

7. mend and alter 4 missionary pants and a jacket

8. hem a pile of pants and a dress

9. replace zipper in two pairs of pants

That still leaves me with 4 dresses to alter and a wedding dress to get finished before the end of the week, plus whatever else come in. One of our local proms was last Saturday, so we have another here on the 8th and I am sure more dresses will come in this week and next before I leave.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
