before and after part from .....with thread in hand......
DONE
(...cause I can't spell tres and that automatic spell check isn't helping any...)I have officially stopped cleaning.. deep freeze is done, fridge freeze is done and now the pantry has been finished...
Let's remind ourselves how bad it was just yesterday...
Holy moly...I found 6 boxes of popcorn, numerous opened packages of stale crackers and some cereal that had seen better days, I also thought I needed tea bags, but apparently not as I found 3 boxes of them..and two canisters of creamer...sheesh...
I also found this ... hubby is working from home ... -
before and after....part deaux... from .....with thread in hand......
Gee, what was I thinking? I might as well get it all done in one day... It IS trash day tomorrow so I can get all this bad frozen food out of the garage...
So here is the fridge freezer. I didn't think I kept a lot in here, but clearly it got out of hand..
And after it looks almost empty... lol and that bacon has to go because I just found out that frozen bacon is only good for one month after the sell by date.. who knew?(that means the capon will also be history)

before and after... from .....with thread in hand......
Remember this horrific photo from yesterday? I just couldn't face it. I blew off all day yesterday. I watched TV, read a whole book, made chicken and noodles and ironed some shirts. No sewing...no cleaning...
So this morning, I decided to redeem myself. Here is the after.. Much better and I won't confess the oldest piece of meat in there, but it is now out front waiting for the trash man tomorrow.
I seem to buy a lot of chicken thighs....

design wall from .....with thread in hand......
My design wall is completely empty this morning. I spent all day yesterday helping hubby set up his computer. He says he is just as computer literate as I am, yet he couldn't get his email set up and couldn't get Quicken working and then instead of waiting until today to call Ancestry.com and get his password, he decided to buy the newest version... whatever...the man has no patience..
So I will show you what was on the design wall last week...not shown is the key fob that matches because I forgot to hang it ... -

why... from .....with thread in hand......
does it take 2 people TWICE as long to run errands??
I happened to mention(very quietly)that I needed to run errands today...I very seldom do many errands or housework on the weekends but yesterday I spent all day with a friend at a quilt show and so I played catch up today....
ANYWAY!!!
I needed to go to Target, the grocery store, the post office and either Hobby Lobby or Joannes... I really wanted to go to Joannes since they moved into a new building, but I could always do that another day so I didn't ... -

Because I don't think you will listen to my ramblings unless I have a giveaway...

I love back-to-school time... I love all the new school supplies and use the sales to stock up on pens, paper and all those cute things they sell for 8 year olds.. Last week when I waswasting timewatching bitty baby...we happened to walk around Target. She wanted to look at shoes...I wanted to head to the back-to-school section. And since I was in charge of the cart I won... Look what I found! Can you ... -

Nancy
as much as you can with a 2 1/2 year old exploring the room.....
and turning on the lights
and turning off the lights
and trying to open the door
and swirling around in the desk chair
and flipping the tv channels
and trying to make coffee
and jumping on the bed
and turning on the radio
(but can't seem to grasp the concept of turning OFF the radio, which means I have to get up and turn if off every time)

conversations ... from .....with thread in hand......
Oh, did I say I would be gone for awhile? so...it's been what...4 hours?? That's a long time in my world.. We have had dinner, cheesecake pudding, Popsicles, baths and one of the two is already in bed..then the other kid and I made fudge.... whew...i'm tired...and in need of a shower...

diary of a wimpy kid... from .....with thread in hand......
So we had 2 grandkids over the 4th holiday... um..we realized we had them last year too.. probably will pass next year.
So one evening Owen was very B-O-R-E-D... and no matter what I suggested it was wrong.. of course we had already been to McDonalds for dinner and then to the show to see Shrek, Happily Ever After.. We had played Lego's til my head exploded and he was still bored. OK..what would YOU like to do I asked... He wanted to write a diary. He is an avid reader. He has been reading The ... -
I was wrong... from .....with thread in hand......
Just don't tell my hubby....ok?
I need to start this story way back when I graduated from high school. I started working and saving my money to buy a car. I decided then that what I needed was a Volkswagen bug. I put half my salary (piddling though it was) in a savings account. Every Sunday I would scour the car ads and pick out my car... That lasted until I met my hubby at the local drugstore. He asked me out...within 6 months we were engaged and a little more than a year after we met ... -
searching.... from .....with thread in hand......
Well, I have had my first ever search party look for me.... Linda in Illinois emailed me to make sure everything was ok...
Aw...she missed me... I feel loved... and everything is fine here....just busy...I have quilts in the works and we had grandkids over the weekend and we are doing some stuff behind the scenes....
In the meantime...please visit this blog...Margi put up one hilarious video...

chicken wings... from .....with thread in hand......
I found a new blog today. Food Wishes is owned by Chef John of San Fransisco California. He not only has great recipes, but shows a video with all of them.
Today I was introduced to Clifton Springs Chicken Wings-Oven Fried with Sticky Ginger Garlic Glaze.
Oh My Goodness.....
I wish I had a photo to show you, but they are all gone. 12 chicken wings eaten so fast I might have burned my tongue licking the sauce. Well, I didn't eat them all...I shared with the hubby.. They were wonderful.
I love chicken wings.. I love them ... -
so I was sick and he was pretending..... from .....with thread in hand......
First you need to go over here and read this story.... really...I'll wait...
ok...are you back now? Wasn't that funny? I thought so...and it reminded me of a story..
Let's do some background...
The son was 3 or 4..
I was sick...
We were home together for the day..
We lived in a smallerish house on a little more than 4 acres in the middle of friggin nowhere.. there was a walmart and two grocery stores... hubby loved it. He could target shoot off the deck. And he did. Many times... We had a ... -
are you squeamish? from .....with thread in hand......
If you are, then please move on to reading the next blog on your list. I'll wait....
Ok,I warned you. If you are still here you are A. either not squeamish or B. very curious... I took the son to the surgeon today for what should have been his last post surgery visit...
hm...not so much.
His incision is infected. I am not sure...but I think it has something to do with swimming in the lake of the ozarks for three days and not showering.. I'm just sayin...
So as I sat there, she sliced ...
