Sissie is with me today which always makes the day better. I don't know why, it just does.
My youngest child is finally a grownup (she is 31) and is buying a car. She has been limping around on the car we helped her buy her freshman year in college. I still have the title, and I just pulled it from the strongbox. I have to meet her at the car lot to sign it over.
That means she has driven that car for 12 years. It was used so I think she got the goody out of it.
I have a wedding dress to get done today almost all hand work, and also a Navy dress blouse on which to put patches.
Last night I cut out three Christmas aprons, Sissie and I are making aprons from a pattern we copied from a criss cross back apron we purchased at and import market years ago. Now we make them reversable, and they are so nice. You can never have enough aprons. I have so much quilting fabric, so I have no excuse not to be doing this, and who doesn't love an apron. Okay I am a little weird.
Once I get my shop work done for the day, I will work on aprons at my leisure. I need to start thinking about Christmas. The plan is to all meet at Jethelyn's. I have a couple of fall birthdays; I will also need to buy gifts for those. I just want to plan ahead so I am not overwhelmed and then spend foolishly. A bad habit.
I am getting several piles in the shop, so after I finish this wedding dress, I will need to do a pile day. That will be hopefully tomorrow.
We had a really good soaker rain last night and the sprinklers were blown out this morning so no more water system. I will have to hand water whatever I want to live in the garden. I will keep the winter carrots alive, and the gourd vines and the rest can be cleaned out. I am hoping to get this all done this week, while the men put up the green house.
Well, I am off to contend with a very large ball gown wedding dress. Wish me luck!
Have a great and productive day
God is good
