New Song

Well, I never heard it before, but I occasionally hear songs that are new to me since I started listening to 108 more frequently.

Great song. I just found it odd that I haven’t heard it before.

Have a fancy Friday! I am! HH then a dance / Irish music party at my friend’s ballroom in St. Paul!

So busy but having tons of fun always!

Manly Domestic Debacle

Well, this is “handy-ish”, but it’s more along the “crafty” sort of thing.

I had several sewing repaid kits scattered throughout my travel bags, nightstand, ironing board-type area, etc. I decided to buy a sewing box.
In the store, much to my dismay, all the sewing boxes were, well, not manly:

Not Manly
Downright girly

So I improvised:

Manly Sewing Kit!
(tackle box)

Next came the whole reason for my domestic distraction:

Ugly and beyond my experience

I had no idea what to do. I just did what I always do: make it up!

Dress pins? This is not dress, but I think it’ll work!

Let’s see. I’ll just do a simple stitch:

And tying a knot every couple inches so the whole thing doesn’t unravel if a thread broke.

And Voila!

I surprise myself!

Next story is how I cleaned my chimney….

Just kidding – I called someone for that 🙂
