It is November 19, the year has just flown by. My sewing room (if possible) is an even bigger mess. I have been sewing up a storm and am not done yet. Who said they were bored in retirement. I can't find the time to do everything that I want to do. Looks like another new year and more resolutions that won't get done. But then again, if I have fun doing whatever it is then that is a good thing.

Here we are in the middle of January already. I took this picture of my sewing room after I finished all my Christmas projects. It looks as though someone threw everything all over the place. Since I live alone it must have been me. I get very messy when I sew and sometimes it is very frustrating. I admit I am not a very neat person but this is a bit much. The vacuum cleaner is sitting there just waiting to suck up all the thread and beads that are imbedded in the carpet. My resolution for the new year is to clean this so I can get started on next Christmas and all the stuff in between.
