At least you have your machine. After our town got hit by floods a few weeks ago, with damn and the river overflowing I have had to wait two weeks and still no result on a service on the Janome. The sewing machine shop had to evacuate all its stock, then wait til they could go back and then put it all back. Also way behind on their work, so I am being patient and told them not to rush. (They are great people, so I'll let them off the hook). I wish I was stuck with you so we could take it in turns to embroider whatever we could find.

Oh my goodness! I can not even think what that would be like! And here I am complaining that it is supposed to be freezing (or near it) tonight - but that is not supposed to happen in Florida! By the time you get out you will have embroidered your house. Flower to you for enduring that snow!

oh my - I feel awful for you puppyjo, that has to be difficult - but is you can run the embroidery machine - you can make a bouquet of flowers - but I do suggest that you don't stitch them out on the hubby's shorts. Hehehe! Ya'll had me laughing thinking about your dh's with their shorts embroidered. Flowers to ya'll.

I hear you, Puppyjo! Same here in good ol Dreary Erie, Pa. Now about those shorts: I wanted to test a rose design before I put it on a t-shirt, figured a pair of old whitie tighties would work, same kind of material, right? Well, they weren't old ones, & DH grabbed them off the sewing table early in the AM in the dark, figuring I had just fixed the waistband. The guys at the gym thought it was pretty funny, & he said sitting on roses all day was no "bed of roses" hee hee hee. I really miss him, he could certainly be entertaining without even trying. Hope it's Spring pretty soon, I'm trying to figure out how to hoop a cat. Marji

oh, bless your heart darlin'! Snow is pretty - a little bit of it and quickly passing. I'm glad I'm not in Iowa today. Yesterday it go to 62 degrees in Georgia. I'm not trying to make you feel worst, there is just some weird weather going around. Get out your husband's shorts and put front/back on them. I really did that to my dh(dear husband) for a joke and now he tells everyone!;)

I might have to try this one jrob, with my DH's sense of humor, he'd probably *frame them*!!!

Wow,You really have a bad case of Global Warming HA! Where on earth are you? Wash cloth and towels work. Tell any males in your household to hide their shorts, as it is getting bad. At least you have us. Hugs and flowers
