Sunday Day of Rest?

I don't think so! We always tend to do more work on Sunday than all week long. Not sure why that is. Maybe because I procrastinate so well? Guess I answered my own questio that time! That could be i part because we are getting company today. A Family get together. My Dad and brother Jim are coming for Dinner so that they can see Jodee and Family again. They do not get to see them very often. So, we clean.

The few weekends we stay home, I do get a lot of work accomplished. It feels good to look around the house and be proud of how it looks. This week I am going to start on closets and the Den. I am going to move my craft and Art supplies, as many as I can, upstairs to my Artist's Loft. It is tiny and I don't like climbing the stairs, but this is a new committment for this year. I cannot become an Artist without doing more Art work. I do some, have been concentrating on my writing and Morning Pages. I think the best thing for me to do is to make a list when I think of things I want to accomplish and then start checking things off as I get them accomplished. I have my Mother's sewing machine in storage and have not even gotten it out of the plastic to see how it works. I let Jesse take our other sewing machine because she was going to do some more quilts. I believe she may have paid for it herself anyway. I come and go with my wanting to sew. That does not seem to be a priority right now. There was a sewing technique I saw on a craft show last week that I believe I may try. It involved sewing paper. It looks like a lot of fun and will help use some creativity. The woman on the show was using the things she sewed to make a house. Not sure if it was for gifts or to sell, they never said. It may have been for her own entertainment for it involved paper cut outs of her family. I could see it being a really cute gift. How those people think of the things they do is beyond me. They have learned to use their imagination in many new ways. One thing leads to another I would suppose. It got them on TV!

Today is a bleak day, no sun. Colder than it has been also. Only 32 right now. It is almost noon, so I bet that will be the high for the day. Yesterday and the day before were so gorgeous it was bound to change soon. I am not sure what the forcast is for this next week. I will have one part day to myself, and then not sure. Larry is cooking lunch for the family.

Jodee, Jamie and Tyler arrived, so gotta go,
