Making Progress



So most people only post things that look good and are proud of. Well these may not look good but I am sure proud of them! I have always been the type of just jump right in and I will figure it out that way, well for some reason the last few years I have become a little more of a "show me" or even a "I would just rather pay for it than make it". However with this new sowing machine my personality of I will just hope for the best has come out a little more. I cant say that completely because I still have received some help form Jill, but one morning I woke up and decided I was going to hem my velor pants and I did. The picture just doesn't do justice but they are pretty crappie. Than a month latter I decided to hem my jeans and WOW what improvement!! I am now taking reservations for pant hemming LOL. Anyway I post this because I think a person should enjoy the improvement they make in life,and not always the best and perfect projects. Hopefully I will continue learning and getting better, but for now I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like throwing it out the window some days. However I love the will I have in me to keep trying even if its hard and for some reason this is really hard for me.

This is how I keep my Sanity


For a month or two now Milly loves to sream at the top of her lungs, I have friends tell me "Oh she is just finding her voice" however it drives me crazy. One day Brett came up with this great idea and it entertains her for quite awhile. Thanks Brett for helping me stay somewhat sane. If you cant tell she is in front of the Fish Tank.
