What I did this weekend instead of sewing:

*went for a 9 mile run

*hauled dozens of wheel-barrow loads of rock to the back yard

*finished my rock garden




*cleaned the house

*mowed the back yard

*cleaned the bird feeders (someone, who shall remain nameless, filled them with bunny food.)

*pulled some dandelions

*helped David haul all the patio furniture up from the basement and set it up

*sat on the front porch and finished my book

*potted some plants

*took a nap in the sun with Bea

*folded approximately 364 items of laundry
aaaaaaaaaa
*sat on the deck and watched the birds
aaaa
*went out for a wonderful Italian dinner
aaaaa
*watched a horrible movie

*broke down the 247 cardboard boxes that David has been hoarding since we moved in

*went for a bike-ride on my sweet cruiser

*took the dogs for a long walk with David

*swept the front porch, steps and sidewalk

*put my winter clothes away and brought out my skirts and dresses (woohoo!)


*sorted through a huge box of old clothes to send most of them to the thrift store
aaaaaa
*visited with my neighbor
aaaaaa
*sat on the porch and read a magazine




Oh, and last night I did finally sit down at the sewing machine and I started a new handbag.

Next weekend, though, it's going to be a total sweat-shop at my house.

You did a NINE mile run? WOOT! Back in the day...I was a big-time runner and we would go out on a Saturday for a ten-miler and then head straight to Dairy Queen and get WHATEVER WE WANTED!

Shew! You are the accomplished woman! Go, Kate, go!

And I thought I was being such a saint to get our grocery shopping done, and volunteer to clean the kitchen over at church...... but I'm just a lazy slug! WAAAAA!!!!! LOL :)

Next time you get the urge to move mountains, please drive to the Spokane Airport instead. I will have a round trip ticket to Burbank CA waiting for you. You can even put bunny food in my bird feeders as long as you don't make me run 9 miles.
