Mother Nature in her infinite wisdom decided to blow a ton of oak leaves all along my front flower bed, and the back deck, included are two sets of steps to the deck. Now mind you these are leaves from 2022. Tired of waiting for husband to rack and bag them all up, so I did it. Two big paper recycle bags packed absolutely full. This week I also cleaned the garage, grocery shopped, and did 5 loads of laundry and cleaned house. My time to sew is at 3-4 am when he's asleep.

New machine, unlike others so knowledge doesn’t transfer. Must read and study manual.
At the same time, berni is at service.
In between projects.
pinning counter is covered… Could clean and pin quilt sandwich.
Hubby in a huff, so now I’m stewing, not creative.
AND it’s my BD. I’ll make what I want for celebration. Forget the chocolate cake he wants. It’s not his birthday. But, takes the fun away when he can’t be happy for me. Pitty party. As I said, he’s in a huff.

I am stumped with super basic stuff. No sewing classes within an hour driving time. YT is great, but I NEED some one on one. Plus there's so much work outside. I'll get back to it, just a little bummed. 😏

We moved.
I did not do the packing.
I do not know where anything is.
I smashed my upper arm and shoulder last August and do not have the strength (yet) to throw boxes around to find things.
My helpers were a bit ruthless in deciding what I did and did not need anymore. I was too out of it at the time to do proper supervision.
Waah waaah waah
