Did you cut it up today??

Nope. I did not cut up today. I made a nice salad, baked a coconut lemon pie and 3 loaves of bread, cleaned the house, took out the trash, did some mending and finished the laundry. Sounds like I'd make some man a great wife; DH says he wishes I'd just get us a rich Sugar Daddy. Polly

Hrmph!! I want a wife. Someone to cook dinner, clean frig's, make dinners, do the laundry, vac the carpet, etc. Then I could quilt all the time!! LOL

I went SHOPPING! Ended up with a 2 piece outfit for the wedding. First time I have purchased something Fancy Dancy but still 'calm' enuf to wear to a nice dinner in a long long time. At less than 1/2 price! Between Mr Joe and I --we saved $175.00 today. He bought 3 shirts and only paid $.88 apiece for

2 of them and they weren't even 'end of season'!!!!!! And I got my sis a T-shirt that says: My Heart BEE-longs to my Grandkids. (Sis 's email begins with BEE Happy)at 1/2 off. So, if any of your fellas need short sleeved shirts...now is the time to go to J C Penney's. YADAYADAYADA

Hi Pat, glad you're back safe and sound. No such thing as a late posting, this group is active somewhere on the planet 24/7. No cutting today so far, but a friend and I went to a small local group's quilt show this morning, found a few little things to buy, so it might happen. The quilts were fun, especially some from Latvia -yes! quilters in Latvia! They are having way too much fun up there -the quilts followed no "rules" at all. One had large flowers fussy cut from (apparently) drapery fabric, raw-appliqued to a background with a layer of black netting on top, and surrounded by fabric braids made from scraps, like for a rag rug. More braids all around the edge as a border. Another was simply rag strips from all sorts of fabrics, laid flat and parallel, and sewn together by rows of stitching perpendicular to the rag rows. Formed a landscape design by the use of different colors.

There were also very professional-looking gorgeous wall hangings from some New Zealand quilters. Didn't recognize any names, and forgot to write them down.

I bought a little kit, something I almost never do, for a little zipper pouch. It just appealed. And some decent fabric bargains.

Hah!

When you do get a wife that does all that it is great. Until you notice that they've rearranged the cupboards, do the laundry "wrong", don't like their food as spicy as you do, AND put the toilet paper roll on backwards.

NightMist

And that's the way I do it, too. It's much easier to keep the end out of sight (of QIs and/or toddlers) if the roll comes off the back. I think it keeps it neater, too. Since I use Costco white TP, no pattern is involved, anyway. ;)

When we were shopping the other day , Nature called. Whilst washing my hands, I kept hearing a: "klunk klunk klunk mutter mutter mutter klunk klunk klunk" Then this little tiny grandmotherly voiced piped up: "Your turning it the wrong way "

silence

THANK YOU! Tiny voice "Your Welcome"

I waited until I was out the door before LOL

Butterfly ( some things are just .......)

IMO, the only thing that matters is that there IS paper on the rack!!

I'm just happy that it's *there*. As long as someone replaced the empty roll, I can't get too worked up about which way it goes. :)

(Same for the toilet seat. Even at 3 am in the dark, I can figure out whether it's up or down. As long as the seat is clean and dry, I'm a happy camper.)
