A sewing class for the young women's group

 

Wednesday

I got up after 8. Chris was still here because the base opened late on account of the snow. I prepared for coffee morning. He took a shower and left. I exercised and drybrushed. I meditated and tapped. I cleaned the kitchen and bathrooms. I vacuumed the carpets and mopped the tile floors.

I took niacin, then read e-mail for awhile. I prepared the sauna and steamed for 20 minutes. I cleaned it up and took a shower. I took special supplements. I made a bookmark and some templates for it. I made egg salad.

I dug my car out of the snow and went to 60D for cleaning. I texted Isadora to come over. We cleaned for about an hour. Then she walked home and I drove home.

Chris was home when I arrived, making his supper. I checked e-mail and wrote some notes for class. I checked out some handbell memes.

I headed out at 6:30 to make sure I had enough time to get ready for class. As I left the driveway, Saronna called to ask if she could have the key to open the chapel door. I told her I was on my way.

When I unlocked the chapel door, a bunch of teenage girls and some ladies came in. Turns out I knew all but one of them. They went to the fellowship hall to have their meeting while I set up 4 machines and wrote on the white board. Then Saronna turned the meeting over to me. I instructed them in the process of making the corner bookmark. Isadora brought her own machine and fabric. Another girl brought a machine that her brother broke. So while the girls sewed, I worked on the machine. It produced a thread nest every time. I pulled out another machine that was almost the same and looked to it for clues. But I ran out of time. The girl said I could take it home.

The girls helped pack up the machines and left. Saronna stayed until it was all done and the lights turned off. Then we discovered that Popken was working in the sanctuary.

We walked out together. She said Randy had finished my trombone case. So I drove to her house and picked it up. I was surprised to see I had left my music there as well. I thanked him for gluing the metal piece down which protects the case. I tried to put it in my back seat, but the doors were frozen shut. So it went in the passenger seat.

I went home where Chris was waiting. I brought in the trombone, music, and sewing machine. I worked on my blog. I made tea. We watched an episode of Criminal Minds. Then we read at our laptops for awhile and went to bed.
