OK, mild vent here. Not snowing enough to cancel last two clients today I guess. Bummer, but I'm gonna sew until I have to put on my face and do my hair. LOL Vent over. Told you it was mild.

[schoolrn1]

Darn, double darn for you Sharon.  I was doing the best I could for you

[chouxqltr]

Mild Vent .... or not?

Well is seems DH has decided to take yet ANOTHER week off and stay at home to keep me company!!!   He has been home since Dec 10th!!  Yes, he had some holidays to use up before the year-end but now is using his time off.    I love you dear, but I need my space back 
I have 3 quilts I want to quilt and I quilt at the kitchen table, so I guess I will just have to pretend he isn't here and bring my machine upstairs anyway 

Pat .... just how do you do it??

[Pat]

LOL... it is NOT easy to work with ones spouce... it took MANY MONTHS to iron it all out

now we work on 2 floors.. and often I tell him to go away cuz I need quiet! he works with a loud radio playing.. I work in silence.. that says it all eh?

[lovetostitch]

wowser!!!  This isn't really a vent, but off topic, soooooooooooo:

So glad we arrived home, but coming home over Helen mtn we thought we were safe, then it slightly rained, then dumped snow.... like a white out blizzard - NO KIDDING!!  Finally got to the house, and we had purposely left the heat on about 45 - we are completely OUT!!! That thing must have run constant!!!  We only have 1 elect blanket, so got that off the bed downstairs and 2 sm elec heaters.......  may sleep in late........ well, not - have to take Sunny Boy to walk in appoint, as he had a hard time all the way home.  In Nov. they said he was starting to have some heart failure and would soon need meds.  He never closed his eyes when he always sleeps -  good news is, he is perfectly calm now!!

They are bringing gas tomorrow for a $60. chg - well worth it, I'd say, but still can't believe we are out.  

Happy happy, joy joy!!!! We are home!!

[dixie]

Linda, So glad you are home safe & sound with your stuff & Sunny Boy too, oh, and your hubby. Glad they are bringing you gas, We don't want you to be cold & snowed in. Take care of Sunny Boy.
Dixie

[chouxqltr]

Brrrrr Linda!  Keep warm!!

[Pat]

cold.............. brrrrr................  hope you get heat SOON!!!!!!!!!!!  so glad the little fur baby is happy to be home!

[lovetostitch]

We made it thru the night - whooo hooo!!  Truck made it over the mtn and is on the way!!  Snow is blowing side ways - think we will need that gas before Tues!!

Got the winter silks for Christmas and is coming in handy!! Never knew how nice those things were!! I'm a happy camper sipping coffee and reading my favorite blog and forum!!   

[dixie]

Linda, So glad the troops are on the way. Was worried about you GF Enjoy your quiet time at home
Dixie

[lovetostitch]

Hee hee!!  Well, here was the problem - we had a leak!  Knew we had left plenty in there and had it low enough to not cut on much.  It was around the grill............ we are suspecting a squirrel!!  They also chewed thru the hose on the van once.  Cute little buggers, but -!!!  They also took stuff into the grill once to build a nest - i need to check in there, but snowing too hard!! 

Upper respitory for Sunny Boy - his heart hasn't changed and lungs clear.  2 Rx s ............... so he is on the mend too.  Turning out to be another great day in paradise!!!   

[Sharon]

YAY! for Linda! (Thank you card should be picked up today and winging to your house in GA. We are snowing here too and I didn't have to go to work either. LOL Hope you got that squirrel outtathere. My DH calls them tree rats.

[dixie]

The sun is shining brightly in CLT & not a snowflake in sight. A little on the chilly side.
Linda, Rats on the squirrels   Glad Sunny Boy is on the mend

Sharon, Yahoo, a sew day

Dixie

[Sharon]

Oh, yeah, Sunny Boy needs to be OK for all of us.

[lisapotpie]

this is an off topic rant, but since it started with a vent...DUDE!  people need to stop being so darn crabby!!  Since New Years day (with the cops...oi!) people have just been grumpy. At least the people who come into my store have been!

I think I am going to sew away my frustrations!

p.s. watch out for bunnies chewing through wires, last year one chewed through my transmition wires and we have one at work in the partner parkign lot, who I keep telling not to eat my car! (as if a bunny pays attention to me!)
