    Oh how wonderful, dreaming of my sewing room being organized, well kept and clean. I am afraid I have a hard time making myself go into that room and start all over with it. I will have to do that in the very near future because I am finding it hard to work or think in the sewing room. Oh, how I hate to clean that room.

    Whenever I start to make a mess I stop to think of something I used to tell my kids and now tell my grandkids, "If you don't like to clean up a mess, then don't make a mess." It helps me to return things to their right place right away and to think twice before I start hauling stuff out. It doesn't always work but I try.....

    You have inspired me, I am really going to try to clean this room up and keep it that way. I have found my thoughts as scrambled and the room. Thank you for the advice.

    I am still looking for a package of scrapbooking scissors I bought early for Christmas for DD 3 years ago, and the boppy pillow cover and nursing cover I made for her ( the baby is 2 now) I did find the scraps! Usually if I lose something DH can find it sooner than I can.

    Too funny! I am always looking for something I just had! Let is go and it will find me later! Too much stuff around here, but if I keep sewing, I will make a dent in the stash!

    It's always the last place you look, isn't it?

    I too can relate; have been looking for some spools of metallic thread that I won at an "open house" at a quilt shop last year and I still haven't found them and I have looked every place I can think of. Probably will find them in front of my nose. I hate it when I put things up in a safe place and think I will remember later where I put it.

    HaHaHaHaHa!!!!!!!!!! I can relate!!!!
    She is a Great Dane weighing 130 pounds. If she doesn't want to move she won't. She has to sleep right up against me and if I roll over she moves with me till I am at the edge of the bed.
    been there done that. My beloved Bruno was big and I would end up on the edge of the bed. Miss him.....
