STAYED AT HOME ALL DAY!!!

Yes, today I made it and stayed home all day. I did a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Some laundry, which come to think of it I still need to put away; read the newspaper; played some computer games; cooked dinner; and yes did some more sewing.  Oh and I also watch lots of TV while doing all the above.

One thing I have noticed since the club activities and other social activities have been cancelled is that it is getting harder to remember what day of the week it is. I am used to keeping the days straight by focusing on where I need to go on a certain day.  I currently have no where to go so I have no reference point as to what day it is. I'm thinking of making myself some silly signs for each day of the week to keep me straight. Ah another craft project!

My joy today was actually cooking a meal from scratch, No prepared foods involved. What was it you ask? Irish Stew! Not exactly a meal for a 90 degree day but yummy none the less. The secret ingredients for wonderful flavor are Guinness Stout and a hearty red wine. I used a Cabernet.  I now have food for the weekend and maybe beyond.

Sewing today was a move back to machine embroidery.  I'm trying to keep things changed up so hopefully I don't get bored with any one thing. Many years ago I took part in a shared bulk purchase of golf towels. The plan then was to embroider them and do a craft show, hoping to sell them. Well that never happened. Over the years I have used some and made them for gifts for friends who golf. The rest have sat in a drawer just waiting for their time.

Today the time came for two of the towels.  Three more might get their day tomorrow. A question that keeps popping up in my mind as I make all these items is what the heck am I going to do with them all.  I guess I'll ave lots of Christmas presents done early this year.
