    I do like to sew in the comfort of my home with screens and sunshades and air conditioning and TV and all the other comforts.
    I do hang my laundry out though.
    I could have written this post -- all except for the hanging out laundry. The most hanging I do is over clothes hangers inside the house. I really DO like riding around the countryside on a bright sunny day.

    I live in the south and you won't catch me out in the sun on purpose after mid morning. I don't feel guilty doing what I want to do with my time.

    I like the sun but I am a redhead and burn all the time. In the '40's and '50's I had blisters all the time. Now I do not get enough sun so I take vit.D as recommended by the doctor. I would like to live where it is 70 year-round. I do live in Southeastern PA. I feel 'HAPPY" when the sun is shinning.

    I don't know how to add my correct age to my siggy. I will soon be 72, WOW.

    And I thought I was the only one who sometimes wishes for a rainy day! We're suppose to have t-storms all week and I secretly took a sigh of relief. I have so many UFOs I'd like to get done.

    Its just now starting to be nice outside..............when its not raining that is. As I have a yard and gardens to take care of, I spend the mornings outside working and when it starts to get hot, I come in to sew. This has been working for me for the couple of years since I moved to Iowa from Florida. My sewing room is in the basement is the only sour note and has only 1 small window to view out but its cool down here so there's another up note. Every morning I take a walk around the yard to see what needs to be done, do it if I can and then I get to play the rest of the day without regrets. I'm loving my retired life.

    I quit buying tickets for guilt trips a long time ago! This weekend it was in the 90s. I will sew in the comfort of my A/C. The wind was fierce but hot. Guilty? Nope. I plead innocent!

    Absolutely not. I'd rather be sewing, but that's just me.

    LOL Nopers .. love to quilt, sew and craft when its cold or hot out-when the sun is shining or not !LOL Our dog has a door to go out all the time (regardless of the weather!) and we are both happy !LOL Don't get me wrong I go camping and all those other wonderful things outdoors but some days all I want to do is to sew ! LOL
    I garden, help with the mowing of the lawn (I am the grass bag holder !LOL)and many other outside chores (weeding, moving things around etc...)so I feel I get enough Vitamin D on those wonderful days, which are just as wonderful when I am sewing ...
