Sew What!

I started trying to sew or teach myself how to sew after getting pregnant with Monkey Boy. I wanted to make bags and purses, pillows, and some (what I thought was) easy stuff. I borrowed my mother-in-laws sewing machine to see if I’d even like sewing. Her machine is old, but still works well. During that time I made a couple bags and some pillows. I got fed up with it, because I found myself feeling stressed out about getting my project done. It was no longer relaxing and fun. I got frustrated with never having the right tension and it messing up. I’d brake off the needle. It was just so aggravating. So I put it rest.

Lately I’ve had an itchy feeling to give it a shot again. I pulled the sewing machine out today. After remembering how to thread the machine and load the bobbit thingy (what ever it’s called), I started to sew. I finished a bag that I got mad at before, so that was good. I also made a pillow cover. I still need to get some velcro to finish the bottom. While doing those I managed to brake a needle, not go in a straight line, have to redo several stitches, and once again get very frustrated! So…maybe sewing and I aren’t meant to be. What do ya think? Maybe I could try knitting or soap making.

Snoozin’

I was thinking while I was getting my PJ’s on about how people go to sleep. Some fall asleep with the TV or radio on. Some must have it completely dark. Some completely quiet. The list goes on. I prefer to fall asleep in complete darkness with the fan on. In fact, I don’t sleep well without the fan on! I used to fall asleep with the fan on and the radio, but now that I’m married that’s changed. Mr. Mag falls asleep with the TV on and then turns it off when he realizes he’s about to doze off for good. When I go to bed before he does, I leave the TV off. So I’m curious how do you like to fall asleep? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Friday Forum – Halloween

1] Are you into being scared? [For example, seeing a horror movie, reading a gory novel, visiting a haunted house …] Why or why not? What’s the scariest movie that you’ve ever seen?
I don’t enjoy being scared anymore. I used to watch scary movies, but I’ve never been one to really enjoy it. I used to go to haunted houses only because my friends wanted to.

The scariest movie…Silence of the Lambs

2] Do you get excited about Halloween costume parties, or do you prefer not to dress up? Why/why not? When’s the last time that you dressed in costume for Halloween? Do you plan to be anything this year?

I don’t dress up, but I get excited for my kids. The last time I dressed up was in college. I’m just going to be a mom this year.

3] Are you carving or decorating a pumpkin for Halloween? If so, how? What do you plan to do with the pumpkin afterward?
We ran out of time this year and probably won’t carve a pumpkin. My class is painting pumpkins today though!

4] Did you do much decorating for autumn this year? Why/why not? What all did you do?
I usually decorate with my little knick-knacks around the house, but I’ve been busy and didn’t put the time into finding the stuff this year. I can never remember where I store my fall stuff.

5] What is your favorite Halloween candy or treat?
I love candy corns, not only the way they taste, but the way they look.
