Granny's gone and done it again

It is pouring outside! My little pond at the corner of the house is already back. Ground is super saturated. We are going to have an amazing wildflower spring after all this water!

Oh, and MIL said she like my broth even better than sis'! yay me!

aww, thats sweet. I bet it was good .
 
The kids both had to do "100 days of learning" projects for school. Of course I put it off, and of course they're due tomorrow.


I decided I would make a tiny blanket with dd. 100 little 1" squares. Shouldn't take any time at all, but I can't find my rotary cutter OR my fiskars. So after a few outbursts I decided to take a break. We'll figure it out later.


Bubba was supposed to cut paper squares and glue them down. DH ended up doing all of it.



dh doing his homework ? :ep   LOL  No time to make a blanket ? cutting 100 squares would take me 2 weeks. and were you going to sew them together ?  Maybe a piece of material and a sharpie marked off into 100 squares ?


It's not cutting 100 squares... Just 10 rows of ten. Cutting with the rotary tool takes seconds. Five 1.5" strips of A, five 1.5" strips of B. Cut in half, now there's ten 1.5" x >20" strips. Sew together side-by-side (not end-to-end) ten strips: A B A B A B A B A B. Cut across in 1.5" segments so there's 10 checked strips. Rotate every other one, then sew back together. Done.

Ugh. Little concerned about the rain here. Supposed to start on the overnight.

Offroadvo is still out of commission. Well. Hopefully I'll still be okay tomorrow....depending on water levels, errands and stuff may be run in the dually on Friday. (Dangit...but I may need the clearance...)
