Current Mood : An all-day yawn
Dearest Son really liked his Nerf crate, and asked for the same logo on his next shirt. Well, that's normally the way - do a good job, and your reward is more work !
My finger's healing from...whatever I did to it yesterday. There's a triangle-shaped skin flap that's back where it belongs, and there's none of the bruising I'd expect from it getting squeezed between the throat plate and the needle. So it remains a mystery, one I hope will heal up quickly.
Beloved Hubby left early for his AirSoft war games, and had a great time. It's every other weekend, and they've asked him back next time, so... he's happy, and I'm happy for him, although he's driving himself nutz about which weapon to purchase next. To us, that's most of the fun !
I'm still not sure what happened to my lazy butt today. If I wasn't actively doing something, I fell asleep. I probably slept about fourteen hours total, and I have no idea why. While it's true I forgot to take my meds yesterday, and I've been waking up with an urgent need to blow my nose all weekend, it still doesn't explain this level of tiredness - and I'm ready for bed right now ! Hopefully, with all this rest, I'll be bouncy and ready to go tomorrow.
I promised to take Dearest to Dollar Tree, too. I want another pack or two of those foam sheets, since I can use them for the ‘small' box and the side parts of the ‘medium' one, and it's the cheapest I've found ‘em. I wanna try out my new glue gun, too. And just look around a bit. Oh, and I found a small empty box for the glue gun and the sticks, plus it fits with the other craft supplies. Yaay !
Since I slept most of the day, and went to bed shortly after my last entry's posting, I never sewed nothin', but I plan on stitching up something pretty this week. And I wanna hop back to the ‘high side' Mal-Wart sometime. That one doesn't have a fabric section, but they do have a bigger craft section - which includes a ‘cut fabrics' selection. I'd heard about those, but Saturday was the first time I'd ever seen one. It was rather sad. It was mostly bog-standard broadcloth in a small rainbow of colors, and a few boring prints, mostly sports-related. Yawn.
They did, however, have cheap plastic canvas in a bundle pack that I wanna peek at again, and poke at some of the other stuff I didn't have time to really study before. Store was really crowded, and I was in a bigger hurry to get out of there than Beloved. But with a bit of distance comes curiosity, so I may end up back over there next weekend or sometime soon.
About all I really did was tidy the lab from the Nerf crate bits, and roll up and store the Décor-Bond I bought last week. The other Barbie tote from last year is getting pretty packed. I'm giving serious consideration to something I saw at Hobby Lobby Saturday. You know those ‘knitting totes' - a stand-up bag in a foldable x-shaped wooden frame ? I have one, bought from a Hancock Fabrics half-off of half-off sale, it's currently stuffed fulla tulle. Looks like this, but with a red ‘sewing cat' fabric ->

Even emptied though, the one I have isn't big enough to hold all the stabilizers I use. However, I saw absolutely HUGE ones at HLobby for $22. - and some a bit smaller for $16. They'd be great for the collection... and with a coupon, ten bucks wouldn't be bad at all. But I then have two Barbie tote bags with nothin' much to do. Clearly, I need to think things over between now and the next 40% off coupon... and when money's available for it !
For now though...(yawn) I think I'm gonna finish the day the way I began it - sleepily !
