Sewing is some kinda work!!

 

Yay!     I CAN have pix!         They just have to be old ones!!

Better old, than none!             Right?!

Sorry, Sorry

By

I’m so, so sorry, sorry that this blog has been dormant for a month.

As you probably know, I was forced to make a decision about what to do, since I ran out of media storage here.

I had already been toying with the idea of buying my own domain, the crisis just pushed me into it!        I thought I wasn’t ready yet, but had to do it!

That’s why I was recycling posts for a while there.       Now that I have home net again, I’ve got time to think, and figure stuff out.          When I was restricted to 90 minute blocks of time, when I could get to the library at all, I was always harried.

But now all’s well, and I’ve got it all figured out.          I think!

So, the plan is to publish on my new site:

www.purpleslobinrecovery.com

Then later, the same content will be posted here.       So that I always have fresh content on both sites, just duplicating each other.

Sounds good to me.       Hope you agree.        (I love it when I’m a poet!)

If not, well………

There just won’t be any pix here, which is sad.     😦

More Moving Memes

By

Probably not all of you have moved as many times as I have.       If you have, my sympathies!         Moving is often a harrowing experience!

Here’s some moving that doesn’t require any energy on your part!        Well, other than eye movement, and laughing!

I don’t think I can find any memes more moving than these!     😉

 

Shame Shunned

By

Yep, you thought I was fresh outta shameful secrets, huh?

Nope!!

This decision has been a long- long- super long time in coming!!

And no, I did not scrabble thru the garbage to retrieve them!       Aren’t we proud of me??

Yes, I am- quite!!

Thank you, really!!           And I don’t even miss them!                       What rolls of film?????   Shame shunned!!         Another decades long weight off my shoulders!

 

(Haha!    I outsmarted you, WP lack of memory storage!!)

Victim: Vanronica

By

I don’t know quite how to break this to you, Gary….  but Vanronica might have to be put down.     

She broke another leg.

slob, humor, Vanronica

Oh no!! Poor Vanronica!

The 4th one this year!!      Well, technically, she broke the same one twice, front left, and then a right front, and now the rear right.

 

slob, humor, tire missing

slob, humor, Vanronica

Eeww! She needs her hooves filed, or something!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Maybe we need to repave her track???)

Thankfully, XH is a tire man, and always rides to the rescue when I call!!       What would I do without him??         Well, this time I’d be walking!

Thank you, XH, for rescuing me again!!

 

I know who to blame this time!!     And I’m gonna name and blame!!

IRMA!!       Good thing she’s already hightailed it outta town!        I’d be after her with a vacuum, to suck her up!

Oops!!        I’m sorry!         I was trying to avoid saying her name again!!         Yep, this makes the 5th time!

Another Irma post, brought to you by the letter  “V”, and spaghetti.

PP’s Playroom

By

Well, it’s time to face the lion’s den: PP’s playroom.          I’m scared, Mommy!!        Hold me!

The outlook, going in.        Or should that be the inlook????

Nope, no sound, I forgot!  Sorry!      I will get better at this, I promise!!

You’re right, if you think not all of that is PP’s!!      A lot of the closet turned out to be mine, and DD1’s.

DD1’s memory box, and some clothes. 

Rubbermaid tote.

My purple suitcase.        But not empty, as DD thought!!           Surprise!!           Smart fabric stash!

Plus 2 books.

My Grandma book, to fill with info about me, for PP, and CC to read later!           And my small wedding album, from marrying Bobby.        My lost love, who’s in heaven.

And now, more room, for more fabric!!                    Don’t even think about it!!

slob, humor, fabrics folded

Fold ’em up!

I knew I had more of those fabric squares!!        Found ’em finally!!        I couldn’t proceed with the twin’s quilts till I did!!

The big blue bag, was mixed clothes, girls’ and DD’s.

So since they’re never used, the toddler beds can go, as well as the pool.         They are both so tall, both couldn’t sit in there at one time!!        And I’m not gonna try to make them take turns for that!!

Not sure what we’re gonna do with her buttons, and marbles yet.        I know we’re keeping ALL her rocks!!         She’s been collecting those for 3 years now!

Probably won’t remember to take a video of her clean room, or a pic either.          Because by that time, we’ll be gone!             😉

I already posted pix of XH cleaning the ceiling fan.

This is the full story, in living color.

Enjoy the  Video ‘viro version!

 

I’m so thrilled that I finally learned how to youtube!!       Thanks, DD1!!         And Stella has been a tremendous help to me in the tech dept, as well.        Also, thanks to SF!             Without him, I wouldn’t even have a computer to work on!       (Which is now fixed, I just need to get a new connector thingy, so I can get back on the net.       ARGH!!)

Living Life

By

This was my post from Aug. 23, 2014.

https://purpleslobinrecovery.wordpress.com/2014/08/23/life-happens/

 

I talked about loving everyone while they’re here, cuz ya never know when they will be gone.        At that time, I had no idea that my BIL, Jeffery, would die so suddenly on Oct 3, 2015, only a year later.          And that DH would become XH 2 years later.    

slob, humor, what???? face

Please hug and kiss all your loved ones, immediately!!          Tell them you love them!!     Life is not guaranteed!          All we have for sure, is today.

slob, humor, heart
