So much for new and wondrous things… I don’t know if I can take a picture of the horrible headache I’ve had all day. I got it from breathing in the paint fumes from painting Nathan’s closet, so I will put up pictures of that once it’s finished. I’ve decided if I start some sort of chemical dependency, it won’t be huffing paint. It’s almost like can taste the oil-based Kilz in my mouth.
We did have a really good time on vacation (and my thermals that I made worked great!). If you go skiing, definitely go in the middle of the week. We didn’t stand in line for a ski lift once until Friday. I did have to hike down a mountain at Arapaho Basin. My ski came of while I was going across some moguls, and then the brake didn’t pop out. It went a good 2/3 of the way down the mountain, since I lost it at the top… I mean if I had to lose a ski, why couldn’t it have happened closer to the bottom? Luckily, some people on the ski lift saw it fly by and helped me find it. They said in went by so fast they thought it was an animal of some sort, until the saw me walking down the mountain.
I did finally decide on my entry for the lingerie contest on Pattern Review. Now I have 7 days to get it done… Hopefully I’ll have a picture of the top for you on Wednesday. Wish me luck!

Can’t wait to see what you make for the contest. I really haven’t started on anything yet. Eek!
Yeah, me neither…
I’ve started down about three different paths, and ended up scrapping all of them. My last pick was giong to be a BWOF pattern, but the instructions are a little sparse. Hopefully tomorrow is a little more productive.
Sorry to hear about the headache. Very glad you had a good vacation. Can’t wait to see what you make for the contest. I do want to borrow your pattern for thermals. I will have to have more for next year. The heating is still a day to day problem. Papa is still hunting for parts. Between your rent house and my heater, the poor man hasn’t had time to work on his own projects. Now he’s worried because they are going to tax people meaking less than $250K a year. I know too much news at one time! Still love you!
