I had some pot stickers from Panda Express on Friday, so I am good
to go for at least a week on them.
And I have received my 2 sp packages already, well it was SUPPOSE
to be 2, but its a long story so I got 3 this month, no worries though.
But I will come sit with you and at least keep you company.
Heck if you're reaaaallllllyyyyyy nice I might even break out all my old
skills and give you a Professional Spa Pedicure. Been several years since
I gave anyone the pedicure treatment, and I KNOW how to do it without
causing you to be tickled (if you happen to be ticklish, I'm not ticklish).

but not with pedicures! Had one in Canada last year, it was done by a man, he gave me the best foot massage I have ever had, I thought I'd purr like a cat
And thanks for the company, am I the only one still on the bench?

Ohhhhh I don't like seeing anyone on the bench, so if you happen
to NOT be alone they would get pedi's also.
So if anyone else is on the bench waiting you get the treatment also.
The whole trick to doing a PROPER pedicure and not tickle the person
is to apply enough pressure to get past the ticklish stage, but not so
much pressure that you can cause discomfort or pain.
My husband who is EXTREMELY ticklish can tolerate my pedicures,
except for at the top of the ball (just below the toes area), nothing
I do there will prevent him from being ticklish in that area. But I HAVE
to give him regular pedicures because his heels crack so bad that he
has literally shredded 3 bottom sheets. Just today I had to do a patch
repair on a sheet (because I am tired of buying new sheets).

I try to remember to write that in my note in my boxes I send but in case I forget I want anyone who got a box from me to know. We all have different tastes and to me it's no big deal.

I feel the same way: better to pass something on to someone else who will enjoy it, but at the same time I won't pass home made gifts on unless I know the person doesn't mind. I know there are different schools of thought on it

I'm not going to rehash this yet again, but you can really get quite a lot for $10 if you shop wisely. And don't forget, you can add from your stash. Most of us have very large stashes that are easily shared. As I near a milestone birthday in May, I have to wonder if I could ever possibly sew through everything I own. Do take a few moments to go back over the posts this month and you will see a lot of ways that you can get quite a bit for very little. Be creative! Add something homemade like most of us do.
I picked up five fQ's from their BoM that they had extras of for 97c a piece. They always have these on sale when they bring out a new one. I could have picked up the blocks too, they were cheap, but like I need more to do. Hahaha.
I put in patterns that you can rip off in sheets at Wal-mart, they come out every month and are free. I make a couple things and toss in there. Then there is always something at a thrift store I'll run into.
It seems I am constantly looking for stuff when I am out. The dollar stores rock for small goodies.
