Long weekend with a tiny bit of S.E.X. by
Cheryl Isaak
Where to start, where to start...
Well, Thursday I kitted up "Herbal Essence" (SP Ink). Why - most likely
because it's bright and cheery. As much as I am enjoying doing "Ladybug and
Bumblebees", it's bit brown right now and the major snow fall is making me
NUTS. And it could be because HE will be...

Weather warnings in Australia by
Pat P[_3_]
I hope that our Australian friends will be OK in the terrible storm now
sweeping through Queensland and heading inland. Has anyone heard from
anyone? They`ll be lucky if they still have power, though.

who is snowed in today? (Tuesday 2/1) by
Susan Hartman[_2_]
We're not snowed in, but ice on the road closed schools this a.m. while
we await more "mixed mess" later today. I'm just happy not to be at work
and have a quiet day at home today!
Planning to get some extra stitching done, and maybe attack a closet
that's long overdue for a cleanout. DD used...

ON Topic; Stitching with Scouts by
Liz from Humbug
I had so much fun today! My EGA group, well, some of us, anyway, had
four different "classes" at the local Girl Scout office and had a nice
turn out. From 10 to 12, I did a project with Brownies where we
traced the outline of each girl's hand on a piece of cotton fabric,
the girls stitched along...

OT - British football (soccer) by
Bruce[_4_]
Here's an explanation of the "offside rule" which was sent to me by a
(female) friend:
You're in a shoe shop, second in the queue for the till. Behind the shop
assistant on the till is a pair of shoes which you have seen and which
you must have.
The female shopper in front of you has seen them...

Help please by
Bruce[_4_]
I'm looking for a floor-standing light to help Maureen with her sewing
when she's sitting in her armchair. The current, rather old-fashioned
standard lamp is not much use and I've read some good reports about
"Ottlite" lamps. Has anyone on here got any recommendations (and UK
sources)?

OFF TOPIC VENT by
Cheryl Isaak
I am so ****ED OFF.
I finally got a decent tenant again. She's thrilled to have the woodstove -
so cozy and warm, even if she only uses on the weekends.
She just got wood delivered - a pick up truck load - and some jerk stole it
out of the car port in broad daylight. Her Dad stacked it for her...

Light Rant by
Maureen Grace-Miller
I stitch under my magna-light at night but have a regular 100 Watt bulb
in the table lamp beside me. It came on our news last week that we can
no longer use these regular bulbs, but have to use those silly bulbs
that look like a twisted tube. They emit mercury, have to be thrown into
a special...

Stocking update by
Cheryl Isaak
Well, I finally just "plunged" in and dropped those Christmas stockings into
a bath of cold water and Orvus. The water immediately turned a nasty yellow
color and I swished them a few times, drained rinsed and started over. And
again. At this point, I did add a little bit of Clorox2 to the go...

OT : Nature TV Show Rant by
Tia Mary
OK -- Rant ON. So, I'm watching the Mutant Planet show about the
Australian animals -- marsupials specifically. Now, I am well aware
that Mother Nature is a very mean entity and kills stuff off at a
prodigious rate. But WHY do the TV Twits feel it is necessary to follow
a mama 'roo and her...

What to do what to do by
Cheryl Isaak
It is yet another no school/snow day here in Londonderry. Good thing I gave
in and bought DD those "fashion" boots she wanted.
So, DS is at his buddy's house sleeping off another night of playing video
games until 4 AM.
DD and the birds are asleep
DH had no work today anyway, he's asleep.
