Quiet Life Homestead

Guess what...........

I finished stitching the back of the sofa!  Now I've been spending the past few hours trying to decide what fabric I'm going to use for the various parts that need it (arms, seat cushion covers, and pillows).  I've got some material set aside and I keep changing it from time to time to get a different perspective.  I was going to use the leather, but asked if I could just use material instead since I know how to work with material.  Charlie said that it would be alright if I did, now I just have to decide................ Here's where having that awful perfectionist streak comes in.  I can't do anything until I have it TOTALLY figured out!  It drives me up the wall and makes me realize once again why it seems I can't get anything done.

The mobile home park owner just came by a few minutes ago.  Seems someone broke into the payment drop box and stole a load of checks.  I don't understand people sometimes.

The boys are coming back tomorrow.  Boy are they going to get a shock with the television gone.  Well, its out by the trash cans actually.  I sure hope the trash men will take it.  I spoke with Dallas this morning.  He and Cody each got a Transformer from Charlie's Mom.  They have never before shown any interest in those toys, I guess the previews for the upcoming movie changed their minds.

Bethany and Mom are having a great time.  Mom's recovering nicely and Bethany's getting to know the horse and goats.  We're going to have to frisk that girl before we leave!  She's already asked if she could bring one home to live in her room..............

I've got to get back to work.  I'm crocheting a rug out of red, white, and blue yarns.  It looks really neat but is kinda difficult being as how you use three strands at once.  In the beginning it was hard, but I think I've got the hang of it now.
