today is hot spot conga* - - and maybe I will call myself Put away Pattie today
*actually I am going to try all kind of dances to get the work done.. a bit of ballet, irish, tap, salsa - I might even try different music as I go room by room to spice things up a bit and trick my brain to think it's having fun and not working.
I locked the d dogs away from me (they are in the kitchen and family room) as I needed a little separate time I don't think dh will let me do that to him
yesterday spending: I dislike spending money but I needed stuff but it still shocks me on how much it added up.
today I have to list what I spent in my book. I may add up my spending each week instead of the end of the month.
I need to pay v isa for what I spent on the 1rst.
My fabric is being shipped - I couldn't find it and had to order it online from Etsy - d mil made an angel (very cute) christmas card holders for each of us (adults) and I thought it would be nice to take her pattern and make one for each of the nieces and nephews using the lace and some of the fabric that d mil had left over. It's an easy pattern but I needed the swiss polka dot (tiny) print green and red fabric which I found very difficult to find in our area.
spoke to dd younger and she went sailing today - she said the weather wasn't bad 55 degrees but I guess thats cold for southern Florida - she enjoyed herself. d mom was extremely covered int he photo she sent.
The other day when I had a visit with grammar school friends the one girl mentioned we had a fancy boat- lol I told her that it leaked so much that d bro and I had to pump it out before we left and when we came back and even during sometimes. D mom had to caulk sand it etc. and it was a cheap broken down boat my dad fixed bit by bit. It's funny how people have impressions of others.
