Mom's in Town/I'm Learning to Use My Sewing Machine!

Pretty much the title explains all the latest haps in my world.

Also, I fell asleep before 3 AM last night, so today has been a great day (and I've had a lot more energy).

It's very fun to have my mom in town! She's one of the easiest people to play host for. And it's also fun that she is helping me learn how to use the sewing machine that I got at Christmas time. (I had intended to learn how to use it sooner, but then I was throwing up all the time, and then I was finishing my last days at Novell, and finally, FINALLY, I am learning how to sew.

Now, I'm definitely a very beginner. (All I've accomplished today has been straight stitches. But we're going to see if we can find a simple pattern I can use to actually make something. And also make a new baby quilt from one of my mom's old baby blankets.)

I'll make Tyler take pictures of us. But until my computer is fixed, I probably won't be able to post them on here. But we'll get that done soon.

Karen Out.
