Glad I'm not alone with hubby attention 'problems'. Mine too, I get into my sewing room, start to sew and he is calling me about something. OR he will come to the sewing room door "You got a minute?" Hour later I'm back and then it's "Look what's on TV!" Sometimes I'll get one of his favorite western/cowboy movies and put that in the DVD and he is good for at least the length of the movie. Now that fishing season is almost over, it will get worse. But I am thankful, if Hubs hasn't seen me for an hour or so he will come and check on me, see if I'm ok. So that is nice. When he is hungary, he cooks, so that is super. In our first year of marriage, 38.5 years ago, that if I'm out and about, I did not take the kitchen stove or the frig with me. Hubs has learned a lot over the years. Yes, I agree, I think the phone is rigged to the sewing chair. Never fails as soon as you set down to sew, that phone will ring.
