Work on it Wednesday

There's just a few days before my younger children head back to school. I have lots to do to get ready so that is what I'm working on. Making a last pass through the closets and dressers to see what needs to be purchased. Reviewing the school supply list and shopping for what's needed. Cutting hair and otherwise getting them spiffed up. I also want to update my home management binder and the file box I use to keep kids stuff (you know all those forms and papers that have to go back) organized. So, I'd say that should keep me busy enough for the next day or two.

Times Up!

Not much blogging going on this week, but I've been busy nonetheless. My kids start back to school on Monday (I must admit, I'm a tad excited, lol) and I've been busy planning, washing, cutting and sewing. I essentially have a small manufacturing operation set up on my dining room table. I have 3 sergers going, all with different colored thread (one set up for rolled hemming), the coverstitcher, embroidery and my main machine are all feeling the love too. I'm almost done though, just a few more items to sew and then I can sit back and enjoy the silence.

Monkeying Around

Just a sweet little modified "Miss Molly" tunic for O done in this crazy monkey fabric from JA's. I love these because they are so fast to sew up, alas...they are reminder that I need to hop to it and start my back to school sewing. Yowza! I only have 1 1/2 weeks before they go back. I have several pairs of shorts and t-shirts to make for the boys and of course we need to get busy and get those school supplies. I can't believe everyone will be in some sort of school this year, even O. will go to a 2 day/week program. Freedom!!! I won't know what to do with myself...oh wait,I'll think of something.
