Skirting the skirts

It's good to have the Dad home again. He is off to Lowe's and Sloan is practicing piano....how I love to hear her play. It just blesses my heart so. I used to cry every time she played. Now that's one emotional Mom. Sometimes I still do!
Today we start back sewing and piano after taking a month off.
We tried to make skirts yesterday but didn't get one finished. I did however get a good long run on the sewing machine which gave me some extra confidence. I can see that one could be a sloppy seamstress or a meticulous one....no comment.
I MUST get a sewing machine!!!!
It was fun though and I loved the fellowship with my friend T, who is a light for sure. Her kids are cute enough to squeeze and everyone seemed to have a good time.
It was a riot as I dove right into trying to manage a huge piece of fabric and act totally comfortable figuring some BASIC math skills with a math whiz! Yes, double that, add two inches, oh yes, I was a real pro. (not)
Bottom line? I sure do love talking with people about their lives. People are so interesting!
