An Owie and a Wowie


The Owie:

Homemaker is a dangerous profession.


Just look what happened when I got my pinky stuck in the vacuum cleaner during yesterday's organizing spree.


It ripped that baby right off well below the quick.
Note the redness and swelling.
A lesser woman may have been diverted from her mission after that mishap. But not me, perseverance runs in my family. :)

Yes, it hurts!

The Wowie:


A drawer in my kitchen that has nothing in it!

It used to hold place mats, but they were moved to one of the china cabinets.

Now I am leaving it empty just because it's such a novelty to have an empty drawer!

How long do you think it will stay empty? LOL.

Did you notice my new header?

Those pink and black star blocs are what I have been making the past two mornings. That's what I do at 5:00 a.m. Today it was 4:00 a.m., but who's going to quibble over an hour?

Well, it's nearly 6:00 a.m. right now so I am off to shower. Depending on the weather, I may be off on a little overnight trip today. A woman can only take so much cleaning and organizing before she needs a little FUN!

I hope you all have a great last weekend of 2007!

  1. You early bird! Nice squares though.
    Ouch is right-sorry about your boo-boo. Keep it padded until it grows in again.
    I finally lost the scab on my wound exactly a month later and it's tender. I can relate to boo boos.
    Have a great weekend-hope you get to go someplace.

    An empty drawer in the kitchen, I'm thinking it won't be empty for very long, at least it sure wouldn't at my house.(maybe a day??)
    Good for you, a weekend away...you deserve it!!
    Your mornings are way too early..6 am is the earliest for me.

  3. With all the work you've been doing you deserve some R&R! The topper quilt squares are very interesting. I do like the black and pink color combination. I haven't started undecorating yet. One more family gathering here tomorrow.Have a great weekend!

  4. Owie! That looks so painful!

    Empty drawers are a novelty around here too. Even when I empty them they don't stay that way for long. :)

  5. Yikes! that nail looks bad,have you tried that stuff called 'new skin' or liquid bandage on it (basically some kind of nail polish-like stuff w/ antiseptic in it) it will protect it and keep it from hurting so much. love the new header. I admire your homemaking skills , you get so much done!
