1. Spent the morning ironing. An oddly enjoyable task I find very meditating.
2. The Patriots are going to the Super Bowl
3. Freezing rain and sleet caused problems for The Eldest when her shift ended at 12:30 AM and she got stuck in some slush. She called to say AAA would get to her in an hour. Another call an hour later to say AAA got her unstuck and she was on her way home. How do you spell relief? When your kid walks through the door at 2 AM safe and sound.
4. A hat I crocheted that was supposed to be a beanie looked more like a beret. The Young One liked it asked me if I could make her one, too. While waiting for The Eldest to get home the night of the storm, I crocheted the beret. The Young One posted a picture of herself on Facebook. Said she really liked her new hat.
5. Saw a great idea to make a Valentine's gift for Himself.

DeleteLove the Beanie. Sounds like it ended up being a good week- and go Pats.
ReplyDeleteGood week. Go Pats!
DeleteMy grandmother used to like to iron. She ironed everything from her bras to my grandfather's hankies. I didn't even own an iron until I got into making quiltlets and needed to iron the fabric after I created a surface design and before I sewed it together. I bought one at the thrift store and use it for art, but NEVER for anything else!
ReplyDeleteLove the hat. Beautiful color, too.
Who are the Patriots? (GRIN, just joking)
Yes, I would say that was definite relief. So glad the eldest made it home safely.
I'm so glad you find five things to be thankful for each week. It's a great feeling, even when times and life are hard.
I don't iron much and certainly wouldn't bother ironing lingerie or sheets. There is an occasional foray into ironing garments or table linens. Usually, I use the dryer with a damp microfiber cloth, time dryer cycle at 15 min. on high to "iron" things like perma-press trousers and shirts.
DeleteRed is The Young One's color.
As to 5 things, it's always better to focus on a positive than a negative. Even when things seem to go to Hell in a handbasket.
I love ironing too! So does my mom! Great job on the beret!
