Random Sunday thoughts

Hi Kyle--I study Egyptian-style belly dance. I like it--it's a lot of fun and a great excuse to dress up in fun costumes and wear tons of cosmetics (if you do not look like a drag queen, go back to the mirror)

Does anyone else think that the TLC television channel is taunting viewers by showing back-to-back marathon episodes of Extreme Couponing and Hoarders? I respect the need to save money--and yes, I'm frugal--but I'm very disturbed by the couponers' stockpiles of groceries. I say this while staring at my sewing stash of fabric, patterns,and notions and wonder if the pot is calling the kettle black... I'm very glad that the Extreme Couponers are organized! LOL!

My frugal tip : my mobile phone (AT&T) was physically falling apart (phones don't bounce when dropped) . I was able to buy a Go-Phone (AT&T) from Best Buy, put my sim card into the phone and voila! I have a new phone. The best part--the phone was only $10. Hallelujah!

Sewing! I did manage to trace out a new-to-me Kwik-sew t-shirt pattern: KW 2594. It's from 1997. It features side panels and sleeve panels, which should allow for more fitting opportunities. I'll continue to work on this pattern this afternoon and figure out how well it fits...
