Today I decided that as part of my change, I was going to enjoy the 10'5 foot hot tub that I have in my back yard. It is so nice at night and here in Las Vegas with the temp in the 50's close to 60 it is not too bad to get out of once you are in.
I did have to get my Kali fix today, she is so cute. I keep thinking that mommy and daddy are not taking good care of her so she has to live with us.... Fortunately, for everyone, that is not true. We will have to settle for our little sleepovers.
If I don't have to go to Texas this weekend, I will be sewing. I can't wait. Kali needs something sewen from Grandma.
Step two for change, eating better.
Until next time.

Time to make some changes...
To my faithful follower, Amy. I am finally going to post again. I have spent all evening checking out other sites. I was going to change the name of my blog, but decided I will continue on with this one.
Anyway, I have decided (at least tonight) to make some changes to my life. I presently have the been moving my sewing to my new office. I have two offices, one you have to walk through to get to the other. So I have decided to move all my sewing stuff from storage and put it in the second office. Tomorrow the move will include the cutting table and mat. I am hoping to start sewing again. It has been so long since I have been truely creative. I stopped at a quilt shop Saturday to get some inspiration. This is what I found...
A pretty little pillow made from pastel cottons and a beautiful purse made from silk and embellished with beads and decorative fibers.
The quilt shop had a lot to offer, but didn't seem homey. The staff wasn't smiling or having fun. I briefly spoke with an employee (or owner) not sure and she did not engage in the conversation. I seemed to be bothering her with my simple question. Then as I passed another employee, she didn't even make eye contact. So I will adventure off to another quilt shop to see if I can find a homey one. Unfortunately, I drive by this one everyday. Odd, the bead shop people were not overly friendly. I wonder if it is Vegas or Michigan people are just nicer in general.
I do think I am going to leave my machine at home for now. Cut out at the office and sew at home. I am not too sure about staying late at the office, it is a little spooky.
Some of my first things on my sewing list are: use up that wonderful baby fabric I have carted around for ever. Kali needs some Grandma made clothes. Then some purses. This all sounds so fun, lets see how it goes tomorrow.
