Glad I won't be alone in that home for the mindless!!! But will I know it?

MmmHmm. Actually, I found a part of a quilt top last week, sewed together in the strangest shape. I barely remember piecing the blocks and have no idea what I had in mind piecing them together in a big hexagon. It's amazing, isn't it, the stuff that goes on in your mind?

I do this all the time, too! Glad to know I'm not alone:-)

Welcome to my world! HaHa ... I find pieces of paper by my favorite chair with notes or telephone numbers and I don't have a clue what it was about.

Hmmmm - I do believe we need a larger boat as so many of us appear to be in the same one...

I used to be a to-do list-maker - you know those papers found here and there with bullets,stars, or numbers by each item. Now, I find I need to write paragraphs in hopes that it will be enough information for me to read later and figure out what I was going to do, or why I needed what ever. As it has been said before - getting old isn't for sissies!

No, but I'm still finding things I had bought for one of my kids when they were young, that I had hidden in dresser drawers or in the closet when I clean them out. The bad thing is that they are now 31,28 & 26. I give them to them anyway & we all have a laugh.

I'm trying to figure out why you wash the grass?????????

I don't know why Irishrose does it, but dish soap is a soil conditioner and helps the grass use the water in the soil.

I'm ROFL at our antics with notes. I have a pile of notes by my desk with block size calcultions, quilt size calculations, etc. But for what quilt/quilts I have no idea. Usually I calculate all this for a new project. Go to start the project and can't find the calculations so have to do them all over again.



I know a Courtney. Does the number have a 605 area code??

Sounds like you were going to make a T-shirt quilt.

I usually loose my grocery list at the grocery and come home with out the most important thing.

Oh that's too funny. I have bought stuff to cook with like this crazy plum stuff I have no idea why or what I was g oing to make. I clean the cabinet -it oes back in there just in case I find a recipe that calls for it. How many years? I'm not telling. LOL
