Greetings from Designer Fabrics
Hello, Everyone!!
Back to reality! I'm ready to get some more samples going! Vacation takes a lot out of a person & is hard work! Thank you to all of my helpers who worked while I was gallivanting in Duluth!! I was glad to be home with fewer TO DOS than last week! On to a new improved list... I did manage to finish the Sunny Days Banner of the Month Sunday morning before work! I knew that would hang over my head when I came home. Megan & I did manage to get away on Saturday to my good friend Bertha's daughter's wedding! We had a great time! Megan's 12, & thinks it would be wonderful if Mom would make her wedding dress 13+ years from now... We'll see how that goes! I guess it would be like creating & hand sewing all of the bead work on her Flower Girl dress when she was 7, just larger scale...Scary thought!! I have a hard enough time knowing that she is more than ready now to fly the coop to go to Culinary School when she graduates!! No more supper ready when I get home...
This week is all about presentation for her... really good new meals all dished out on plates just like in the fancy restaurants with a sprig of fresh parsley!! What a kid!!
In some respects I often think of how I'm not home (& should be some days), but then I remember being on my own taking care of my 3 siblings at the age of 11 when my Mom started a part-time job. There's a lot of independence growing with new responsibilities around each corner. Megan probably wouldn't have had the same freedom to learn what she has on her own, if I were to have been there watching over her as a protective Mother with limits & boundaries. After all, I turned out OK...
