Made a pot of veggie soup yesterday and made Fruited Chicken Salad today. Leftovers tomorrow. Sourdough bread all three days!

Avatar on Netflix DVD.

Love it!

Sounds like a perfect idea! Have a nice nap! And treat yourself to a little something you like when you wake up- an iced coffee, a piece of chocolate, a walk in the park. Make it a good day for you.

No spend yesterday and today. That makes 6 no spend days toward my goal of 16 no spend days in May. This is not looking good...:(

We were thrilled to see a group of Indigo Buntings for the first time on our property!

Beautiful pictures Cathy!

Scott who????

Exactly.

I just finished The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult. It was excellent!!

I was born in 1947. My father was a merchant seaman and my mother had a beauty shop built onto the back of our 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house. That house was tiny but it was paid for. My parents drove a...

Well, this month is not going as smoothly as I had hoped!! Yesterday turned into a spend day and we are buying groceries this evening so today is out too. Hoping Saturday and Sunday will be no spend.

Selah. I hadn't thought about professional repairs but yes, let's include those too. I have a grandfather clock which I plan to have professionally repaired and a purse and pair of shoes that should...

DH and I are watching the Children of Dune series. I can't keep up with who is who.

Iris, I have to warn you: I have an abysmal record when it comes to recommending books to people; inevitably, they aren't nearly as enthralled with the book as I was.:(

No spend Day #4!! 4/16 of the way to my goal.

The Little Way of Ruthie Leming by Rod Dreher

Wow! What a book! Just when you think you've got a handle on the situation, another layer is pealed back and you get a closer look and things aren't...

Heavens, No! It doesn't have to be textiles! Mending, fixing, repairing, whatever it takes to make something useful again.

Finally, a no spend day and tomorrow should be a no spend day too. So, I am 3/16 of the way to my goal for May.

Wonderful!
I am in the process of using up all my fabric stash to make scrap quilt tops.

We watched Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. It was dated but still so good.

I have a lovely old quilt whose binding has simply worn out. I am in the process of re-binding the edges of the quilt.

What have you mended recently?

Sunday, May 5: Ate lunch out and stopped at JoAnn's on the way home. Tomorrow will be a spend day but Tuesday and Wednesday should be spending-free. Not a good record last week. :(

Sat., May 6 was a no spend day. So a total of 2 no spend days out of 6. Not exactly record setting.

Glad it gave you all a smile too!
