Last Thursday in February

The day started out a bit rainy, but it wasn't very far into the morning before it was over and the day ended up sunny and fairly mild.  Once again, when I needed to go to the mailbox or to put something in the garbage can no jacket was needed.  Nice to be able to go out and not freeze even with a coat!  

I have enjoyed a stay-at-home day.  Part of the day I just felt lazy and didn't feel like doing anything..maybe because that was because I woke up very early once again.  I will say waking up early is one way to end up with a day seeming quite long!  I have contacted my tax preparer to make an appointment.  I think that I have received everything and/or gathered what I need to take to her. I then went through some papers that had stacked up and got rid of some and filed others.  I have made a grocery list, as I plan to make a trip to Kroger in the morning.  I have been trying to figure out what sounds good to cook.  Today I did cook a pork roast…that tasted pretty good for supper tonight.  

Once again…I am clearing off my sewing cutting table which seems to be a magnet for things that I don't have a place for…it's not too bad this time.  I do want to do some sewing so will need the surface to cut all cleared.  I will be using a new pattern that I haven't made before so I plan to make a muslin first…I had bought some muslin fabric a while back.  Today washed it so it will be a little less stiff than it came from the fabric store.  I’m sure it will come out of the dryer in a wad since it is five yards!  It is drying now.  

Tonight I'm looking forward to stitching and watching Matlock and Elsbeth…their season is starting up again tonight.  I have taken a little time today, when I didn't feel like doing anything else, to do some stitching.  I continue to work on Christmas ornaments.  This one has more stitching on it than some of the others that I have planned for this year. Some I am doing on perforated paper which is higher count and I can actually stitch on it without any magnification other than my readers.  The one I am stitching on currently is on tiny count and readers and extra magnification and extra light is very necessary.  

To be continued! Be safe! be well! be cautious!
