Day two with another day of coming and three days of there and three days gone. At least I don't have a full weekend, although Lil sis's birthday is the 5th and I know I will bake her a cake.
Right now, I just want to wrap up in a blanket and go back to bed.
I did get all 31 pairs of pants hemmed yesterday what a job. But I did not finish until 7:00. Too long a day I tell you.
Today it is wedding dresses. I want to get a couple done and maybe a third started. We will see.
Then with it being the end of August I will need to pay bills also not my favorite chore. But it must be done.
Kelsa is here today, and I think I will watch Oliver on Saturday depending on how I feel. Really don't want the grandkids to get this crap and then run it through the whole family. But who knows maybe they gave it to me?
I am off to work.

You take care, take some vitamins, get some sleep and rest!
ReplyDeletei virtually slept all weekend it was great!
DeleteI bow to your sewing magnificence! 31 pairs of pants! Hilogene in Az
ReplyDeleteIt was a marathon.
DeleteI really back what Cheryl said. Tell the kids you are sick, they don't want that in their homes either
ReplyDeleteKids were gone all weekend and it was a blessing although I did run up and watch Oliver for about 4 hours.
DeleteThe kids probably gave it to you, but no use giving it back so they can hold onto it for you to catch again.
ReplyDeleteI take it you don't hem by hand. But, what kind of machine do you use? I can blind hem with a zigzag stitch. But, I tried to learn to use a machine with a curved needle that swung right and left, a machine used to hem only. However, I never mastered that machine. Otherwise, I would have bought one. Instructor kept telling with practice, I could master it. No, not true.
Go ahead and wrap yourself in a blanket for a bit. Maybe some rest will help in healing.
I do not like blind hem stitchers. If I have really good dress pants I do by hand.
DeleteI've had the summer cold/ allergies. I'm sleeping poorly- haven't had a real night's rest in nearly 8 months. I'm just wore out from everything. The latest round of fighting with a bank who say "they truly have my best interest at heart" sent me to a near breaking point.Every day it's not settled is costing me money, but it's the emotional pull this particular issue has that's setting me up for a mental health crumble. I need a real break from life. I keep saying I'll run away. Maybe I need to stop the idle words and act.
ReplyDeleteOh Sam I so understand where you are. My bank is insisting I close my account and my CC and start over. I don't want to and so I have not moved on it and will not until forced. Maybe a FMLA leave of absence? Although that might not be good either. You are having to deal with all of this and still work and be sane. I was able to just not deal for a couple of months and then somewhat control (ha ha ) what I have to do. Okay I will quit lying now. But this is damn hard and you just need understanding and lots of love. DO I need to come out there? I am leaving Kays on the 31st of Oct but could one way to you and then one way home. What can I do?
DeleteI could not hem
ReplyDeleteOne pair of pants correctly…31??????? wow just wow! Cindy in the South
You just need lessons my friend.
DeleteOhhh.. how annoying! I had a cold this summer which was mostly coughing (not Covid) and it lasted too long! I’m hoping yours will be over much sooner! I love the photos of your grand babes, and happy birthday to Kelsey! Take it as easy as you can- it’s good to keep busy, but not if it affects your health… sending hugs! Xo, Ricki in NY
ReplyDeleteThanks Rikki, I rested a lot this weekend and I am much better.
DeleteOh no, Kim!!! Take it easy - give your body the rest it is screaming for!!
ReplyDeleteI know and I did!
DeleteRest up! I"m just getting over COVID, which is about as much fun the second time around as it was the first. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh sweetie, I am so sorry. Last time it took you so long to recover. SHIT!!!!!
DeleteTime to put a "closed" sign on your door - take a day or two off to really rest and then get back at it.
ReplyDeleteI have my 69 year old brother staying with me for a few days (he had a stroke 5 months ago) and it's like having a big toddler around. I'm exhausted.
Oh Sissie love. Nothing like a Sissie to love and take care of you. I am smiling while I type this. Because I know just how he is acting.
DeleteOh please get a good rest. My American bestie thought she had a head cold but, she ended up testing positive for COVID. Plenty of fluids and rest. Non-doctor's orders!
ReplyDeleteNo covid here just a cold and a mild one at that, but getting better.
