"I hate it when I'm cutting my fabric and my back starts to hurt sooo bad. I wish my dining room table was just a bit higher!! I can't cut sitting, I have to stand, and when I'm bent over, my body is at a 90 degree angle! Lol."
I purchased a set of bed risers to put under my dining room table to solve that very problem! What a relief!

My other peeve is when I'm concentrating so hard that I don't hear DH coming down the hall, and I yelp when he says something.
The bobbin thing - when the light goes on I KNOW there's thread left, so I keep sewing, and I usually forget the light went on - - -

I found a high "bar-type" table in the clearance section of Nebraska Furniture Mart. It is the perfect height to use as a cutting table. I used to cut on the floor :)

Take a no slip draw liner sheet (at $ store for $1 or lowes for $5) and either lay below the cut line then put ruler on top or spray adhesive a strip to the bottom of your ruler and kiss ruler slip good bye.

But before I got to them I gave up reading all the I don't knows.
Now you can hate me. Juju
