Sometimes we need to celebrate the small things in life and right now I'm doing just that over the fact that I finally waded through the file drawer filled with genealogy materials. There's a huge pile gone to recyling and on Tuesday I will be taking a number of books to donate to the genealogy department at the library. One more file drawer to go through and then it's on to my landscape fabric storage units. The end is in sight!
Once that is done I must turn my attention to THAT day in December and get busy on projects to add to the box. The search is on for appropriately-themed flannelette for Grandie PJ's. Up until now I've pretty much always knitted them each a sweater but my hands are balking at that so PJ's with hopefully matching pillowcases are their replacement.
- I thought THIS was interesting but not sure about using beads.
- I may have pointed you to THIS last year (or maybe the year before). Thought it was worth a re-do.
- If someone with long hair is on your gift list this year, perhaps one of THESE might be a nice gift.
- Have a peek at THESE!
Today the quote is from Thomas Edison..."Most of my ideas belonged to other people who never bothered to develop them"
Sounds like you are really making good progress--;))) hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteOne more file cabinet drawer to do and then it's on to the rest of my fabric and yarns.
DeleteGood job on the paper declutter!
ReplyDeleteYes, I must admit to feeling quite virtuous at the moment.
DeleteIt sounds like you have found the light at the end of the genealogy tunnel, I congratulate you, it is not fun nor easy going through files and getting rid of paper, Mike is shredding stuff we have had for years. Love the hat for long hair, I may have to have my sister in law make me one, I have long hair. The dogs of glass oh my.

Yes, I'm over and done with genealogy for the moment. Christmas has to come first.
