The neighbors parents car took a dive, but they listed it on Craigslist and were able to sell it for enough money to buy another car... Which ended up taking a dive the next day.
All the money they had went into that car and now it's a driveway ornament. They have it listed on Craigslist and are hoping to at least get enough money out of it to buy something else.
Life can be such a struggle sometimes, but it's amazing how when you get a little distance from your problems the things you thought were so insurmountable were really just bumps in the road.
Trust me on this. I know. I've gone over a lot of bumps.
I think I'll keep my pearls of wisdom to myself though, because we all know how welcome advice from your mother can be :)
The neighbor is growing like a watered weed!
Smiling and starting to laugh, he is the best thing that's ever happened to me since becoming a granny ❤
This was taken while we were driving around looking for a car for his parents.
The sewing is going!
I am loving it even though I have NO idea what I'm doing, but I watch tons of videos and just keep practicing and I'm staring to get the hang of things.
I'm even getting a new sewing machine for my birthday that comes with an instructional DVD and is super new and improved from the 7000 year old one my grammy used that would be loved by any experienced seamstress, just not a newbie like me.
I need something new and improved and self propelled.
here's what I've made so far...
My purse.
My apron.
And a bath mat!
And today or tomorrow I'm going to make this clothesline coil bowl, I just need to go to town and buy some fancy thread.

You know... I would really like to visit you someday. And not because of how fun it would be to hang out and eat dessert. Mostly I'd just like to smooch on the neighbor kid. :)
ReplyDeleteWell you know, we could eat cake, kiss the neighbor, have some cookies, smell the neighbors head, have a pork chop, play peek-a-boo with the neighbor... See how that works :)
Deleteplease put that cute as a button babies chest clip up to arm pit level! It's not a belly clip it's a chest clip!
