~Always A Way~

Today I worked on the blue lace curtains for the kitchen.

Lace is such a buggar to sew.. I bet I called it everything

BUT lace, let alone curtains :-) I KNOW it snagged on that

foot a dozen times.. I finally stopped and sat and tried to

figure out a better way to do this so I don't get all bent

otta shape when this stuff aggravates me :-) AND.. of course,

I did.. I'm going to sew a strip of the material that I used

on the bench for the rod pocket.. be easier than fighting this

lace, plus it wont be seen anyway cuz the rod itself is white

and that's what will show thru the lace :-) It will work.. :-)

There is always a way :-)

I had a minute of stupid however, it happens off and on you

know... I wanted to see the valance I made- up.. see what it

would really look like.. So I decided the only window I could

get close to was the door.. so I pull up next to it and go to

put the curtain up over top of the one already there.. 99%

of the time I remember to SHUT OFF MY CHAIR... well ,

duh.. this time, like I said I had a moment of stupid.. I

reached up as high as I could, and when I was sitting back

down, my arm hit the joystick, my chair went back so fast,

I fell forward, luckily against the door...I took my arm off

the joy stick as fast as I could but I still went back just

enough so I had plenty of room to smack my face against

the door.. That was fun... I didn't hurt anything, but I sure

could have.. but it did look nice up there :-) almost knocked

myself out to see it, but.. I did it :-)

I just have NO patience when it comes to not being able to

do something.. being this short is such a drawback and just

drives me nuts because of the things I cant reach.. I watch

that show on the learning channel called little people, big

world.. its about little people.. who are short as well.. but they

have the same challenges I do being short.. only difference

is they do have the legs to climb to what ever they need to

get to.. where I don't.. but I bet they feel the same frustration

as I do sometimes.. What my problem is, I hate to realize

that there actually is something I CANT do! That is just so

NOT easy to accept! specially when you remember just what

you could do...

I just work around it and find a way to compensate for what

I cant reach.. Mainly I just wait for Penny or someone to come

by.. The hardest part is waiting for someone else to help me.

I'm one of those that want things done yesterday...I hate to

wait.. I remember when Kelli and I had to wait for Willie one

day to give an estimate. She was in the back seat and she was

mad.. She kept grumbling and whining, and finally she crosses

her arms in front of her and loudly proclaims.. "GRAN! I HATE

TO WAIT !! ".. she was only 3.. If she only knew that is how

everyone spends most of their time- waiting-.. lights, grocery

lines, on hold on the phone.. :-) If she knew how many MORE

times she would be waiting .. :-)

Time for me to fix my superbowl lunch.. I'm going to watch the

game today I don't even know what time its on.. I'm mainly

gonna watch it for the commercials.. I saw where they said

each one that's aired during the game cost over a million dollars

to buy the air time... I do hope the Steelers win, Mark is a

dedicated fan.. Me, I'm a Packer Backer.. but I like the Steelers

too since I lived in PA for a long time... What I'm gonna have

for lunch I don't know, maybe since its a special day I might

fix my very best favorite ... :-) fries N' gravy :-) So... that

means, time to post this and of course send my GORGEOUS
WEEBLE "G'day, G'day".. :-)

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya, and thanks...
Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You", is my prayer today,

I'm honored to call you "friend".

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again...
