Current Notes: Yaay ! From 'trashcan fodder' to 'much better, keeper' with one simple
straight seam-dart down the back. Not too convinced about DLaura's belt, though...
It’s embarrassing how long
we had these chicken legs – I think it’s made it through at least four moves –
but they’re nearly gone now. I did a knockoff-Bisquick oven fry, and it came out
great. Made dumplings out of a packet of chicken Ramen seasoning and the unused
breading mix. Beloved Hubby really loved those ! The leftover broth will have
angel hair pasta and chicken shreds added to it for lunch tomorrow. It may take
me a while to use something, but when I do, I use it all.
Beloved had today off, so we
bounced from naps to home improvement projects, and I never got to sew. But the
front door now has a deadbolt, his tools now have a space that includes a
storage cabinet, and the bathtub drains a lot better.
We also said ‘goodbye’ to
our air mattresses. Dearest Son’s was slowly transforming into a beach ball,
and ours had begun the metamorphosis as well. We were planning on replacing
them next month – Dearest’s as soon as possible – and saving up for more
conventional bedding when a neighbor came by to ask a question. They just upgraded
their two-year-old Sertas, and wanted to know if we could use them. Evidently,
her dad works furniture, as he got them the newest for Christmas… again, as our
neighbor sighingly put it. Heck, yeah ! We snagged a Queen and a Full, and helped
them curb their remaining two Twin beds – which were gone by the time we went
back for the Queen. Yaaay ! DMIL and FIL
like their bed, and didn’t want to change it, but we offered. Yeah, I can
understand some squick about used beds, but I slept like a rock during our
first nap on them, so I’m happy. We can keep saving up for our own new bedding
in the meantime, but I’m just glad Dearest has a better bed tonight !
