Afraid the fire works business would not exist if they were counting on our $ dollars. As a child, I was taught it was like lighting up a $ and letting it burn...and we never had very many $s...so very few $ were ever spent on them. hence, whatever the neighbors do, we just listen and watch, not spending gas money on going anywhere to see them.
QR on hold until the new tables come in; did sew on my old typewriter table and plan on using the embroidery machine at some point. Have all fabrics not in an assigned project organized by color...but dug deeper into the 'old' projects off the top shelf...trying to decide if I will ever finish them in my life time. Never, maybe, in near future. Bits and pieces got piled higher. Guess I am earning my pilot's license again; pile it here, and pile it there. Great entertainment for someone under the weather a bit or rainy days.
