Hi Robin!
-=> Quoting Robin Payton to Wendy Buchanan <=-
 RP> Thank you.  I do miss her.
I'm sure you do.  The two of you seemed so close.  
 
 RP> Ah, the grass is always greener...   :)  I'd *love* some good
 RP> sausage and citrus.  But, I'm more able to contribute something crafty,
 RP> so perhaps it's best for me that crafts are the current goal.
Besides, all that sausage isn't supposed to be good for us,
but it sure makes good pizza!    We loved ours!  That
grapefruit, though, I cannot stand.  
 RP> I also went to Walmart and bought several pairs of socks from
 RP> their "broken packages" bin - 25 cents each - and am beading and
 RP> crocheting edgings on them. That's some of the variety I want to add to
 RP> the pile. 
I was thinking of you and your sockees when I saw a pattern 
for a doll made out of a lace-edged sock.  The lace edging
was the bonnet edge and it was stuffed with fiberfill.  It
was so cute!  Neat baby shower gift decoration, I thought!
 RP> That trailer is a good idea, too!  I don't know if it would work
 RP> as well here, though - *big* town.  His high school has over 2000
 RP> students, but the band is as small as the one from a town of 3600.  I
 RP> think I know why, but few would listen to me.
No, they always think newcomers don't understand.  Besides,
they are probably thinking themselves very exclusive, or
something of that nature.  
 
I have to get busy and make myself some summer nightwear.
It gets too hot here for nightshirts, and all my nighties
have disintegrated in the washer.  It's not a desire now,
it's a definite need, and I have a very simple pattern to
use now so I'm going to sew, sew, sew!  Maybe I'll make a
couple muslin ones for the very warm nights first.  And if
I make mistakes, no one will see them except Tom and me,
and he's not going to care.    Just me, especially if I
sew the armholes closed or something!  hehehe!
LadyBear Hugs,
Wendy
... Right now is a gift -- that's why it's called the "present."
