Oh lots, can't you see?

I've cut my pattern out for my sundress though. I also started cutting out some test fabric to see what it fits like. Then I'm going to make some alterations and cut out the fabric I'm going to use.

What have you been up to today?

Ouch, is it lots?

Well, that's not so good.

But, I got stuff done today. I picked up my camo tarps and a battery powered fan. Went to the Sportsman's guide store. The store itself wasn't fabulous. But it took less than ten minutes to order my stuff at the desk and have it out of the warehouse, so that was cool.

You should look at the website if you are still looking for a fan. I saw some 12 volt ones on there.

well I couldn't buy a newer vehicle that would tow my trailer for what it's going to cost.

And like with the dog's vet visits some of the stuff I should have taken care of a while ago so technically I shouldn't consider all of the expense of going to the event but I do anyway.

there are no real guarantees but it's a lot better to spend the money here to get things fixed than to have to pay more some place on the road.

Howdy, Zule. Miss Blue, you're looking lovely this evening.
Say, doesn't this jukebox play anything but polka tunes?

Okay. Sounds like you're not too worried so I won't worry either.

I could use a drink. I don't know what I have in the fridge though. I don't think it's anything very interesting. Hmmm, though I do have that bottle of wine that I could open up.

I don't think it does this guy came in earlier and took the old one out and replace it with the polka machine, he started it playing and polkaed out laughing



speaking of being productive, I need to lay my head on a pillow and do some productive dreaming. Good Night

I'm having trouble comprehending that post. My mind is full of sewing directions. I seriously think they make understanding those things hard for no good reason.

Not bad. Not bad at all.
You'll have to work harder at 'ruining the event' if you want to be in my class, but it's not a bad start.

I'm leaving work now and I'm callin' you in a bit. You've been warned.

(walks behind counter to the stash register right under
the Coco Lopez dispenser, hits a key, and the drawer
whisps open revealing a wide variety of colorful capsules.
Narrowing his eyes he spies a likely candidate and picks up a large red pill. He eyes it suspiciously and suddenly pops it into his mouth and swallows... suddenly a grimace appears on his face, and he runs moaning from the bar..OhhhhhhhhWoeWoWoWoWoWoWoWahhhhhhhh!!

"Oh No! He swallowed the Bitter Pill!"

* sneaks in lurching along the side wall then darting behind the bar. Ducked down he pours himself a tequila and lime, sits back and begins to sip on his drink *


Zule begins to talk to the coffee maker next to him, " I'm hiding from my better judgment, I have an endless list of things I really need to be doing, but I'm here instead."
