I'm about ready to go back to my sewing. Just finished two corn on the cob bags for the microwave!

Cool. I have corn fabric to use for that too. And lots of farmer's market for a fun quilt to hang in my kitchen. Calling it a night too. HUGS

Corn fabric is what I used! It is a great and quick way to do the corn. Better even than the potatoes.

Good morning Debbie !!! 

Have a great day !!

You were a busy lady yesterday along with np3. I didn't do much,but almost have the last pair of jeans mended. 
We did get a shower about 5pm, DH & I wre out with the dogs when it hit. Then found one of the fittings cracked on rain barrles. We took dogs back in then fixed it, but we got soaked in that short time. LOL

Well, have a lot of reading & catching up to do on here, but will get it done since today is jiggle day. DH took 2 vactation days, he will go back to work on Friday, but he will be working grave yard that night.

Later, (((((( HUGS ))))))

Good morning Debbie, I was hoping for a quiet week but it doesn't look like that is going to happen, hubby just called and he is rained off so he is making the trip home to look at 2 more houses. I can't wait until we find just the right one.
I hope you take the time to take a nap today if you feel like you need it. Your body has been through alot and now you have taken all it's usgar away and then adding some meds back in, it needs to adjust!!!
It is going to be really nasty humid here today, so I am going to shut the windows and door and turn the A/C back on. It was nice to have the apartment open last night!!

Have a great day!!!

Good Morning Everyone, hope all of you are having a wonderful day!

Debbie, you were very busy yesterday. Hope you have a great day and some time in your sewing room. Those kittens are growing so fast. They are just darling. (((((HUGS)))))
 
My Goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

GOod morning. I have already had a long hot shower and my second cup of java. AS early as it is I have a story to tell.

I took a long shower and when I was ready to get out, I reached up and got my towel and usally open it and throw it on my head and dry my hair. WEll, I picked it up and opened it and brought is close then realized I saw something out of the corner of my one good eye so I held it back and thought, it's a thread. WEll, this thread turned out to be a little scorpion about 1-1/2" long. Whew. I threw it on the floor and called dh and he stomped on it. Now we never saw any here in the last 12 years but lately we have killed many. Must be the heat drawing them in. SO no more waiting, we are calling our exterminator guy to come and spray. Now I am shaking everything before putting it on etc. Even dumping my shoes. LOL. I don't think a sting would kill me but with my immune system down it would not be fun.

I wish scorpions and spiders and snakes had missed the boat. Seriously.

OH NO! A scorpion! Yikes!
I was just getting ready to head for the shower but now I'm thinking it might be a bandana day but I don't want to scare moonwork today, ok I will shake my towels first. I have the creepy crawlies now!!!

Good morning Sunshine - OH MY!!!! I hate those things - Now you got me wanting to check everything here - I have not seen one here in the house, but you just never know. What a way to wake up and start the day. lol -

Well, getting a late start today - I will call you in a little bit - need to get some info from you... Stay cool and forgot to say that I love the kittens. I really want one... but DH won't let me.... Plus, I know the 2 dogs probably wouldn't like it either. Oh well, a kitten will be my next pet when the time comes. HUGS
 
Thanks,

Joanie

Debbie, not a good way to start your day. Good thing you are quick and observant. I wonder if they are looking for water?
The exterminator may have an answer to that as they must have had lots of calls. Do you have to do anything special to the kitties when they come and spray? Don’t want sick little kitties or you and DH. You may have to have a third Java!

ANimals are ok with the spray. Just put them in a kennel until it drys well. Exterminators let us know about precautions. Even take Duke out of the back yard when they spray it.

Cjomomma - take pictures when you meet moonwork. I bet she would think you were cute in your bandana. LOL. I think you're adorable in them. When you smile. ROFL.

Well, I updated my topics and checked to see what everyone was saying. NP3 pointed out to me those newsletter I keep deleting actually show hot topics for the QB and we have been in two -three in each one. Arghhhhhhhh something else to watch for now. I have some that get less than 20 but more than get in the hundreds. I am usually careful when I pick a topic and it's something I really think a lot about so glad it is working.

Whoa! If you see another one, it's my understanding that the darker they are, the more poison. Has anyone else heard that? Years ago we had some huge black ones - about 3" long - that were brought in from Mexico in some rocks we were making a waterfall out of. One of the guys who got stung, went into seizures and ended up in the hospital.
Now, just let me shake off THAT thought!

Oh, I almost forgot to say Good Morning! I was thinking about those creepy crawlies!
