My husband is a gardener so he's pretty busy spring and summer. He's out the door as soon as he's up. While he's supportive of my sewing, in the winter he too watches TV and complains that he's all alone and lonely. My sewing room is upstairs. What I do is prepare a bunch of applique and when there's something on TV that I might like, I'll go down and keep him company with my hand sewing. I can no longer sit and just watch TV like I used to do years ago.!!
