Small Town Living

It's pouring rain. So I think today is a perfect day to finish a few projects. The baby quilt - it's ready for binding. To purchase baby quilt binding I have to drive to Santa Rosa. Karl is insistant that the baby quilt have silky binding. So....I decide to do Mother's day cards. I need double stick tape. Off I go in the pouring rain to CVS. They don't have any double stick tape - they are out (of that and a lot of other things) so I run over to Rays - nope they don't sell double stick tape. Ace hardware - they used to carry double stick tape - but today there is none. I seek out the helpful hardware man (who happens to be my son) and he tells me "if this is going to be another incident like the shelf incident yesterday I don't really want to deal with you." Only because I felt like the shelf brackets I purchased there were defective and caused me to have a fit and drop the f bomb a half a dozen times while trying to explain to him what my problem was. He was insistent there would be double stick tape and really would have wanted to prove me wrong.
So I came home with a family size bag of doritos and no double stick tape.

If I owned a craft/fabric store I would be putting the binding on my baby quilt gift, and working at my large spacious and cheerful work station.......

I think I will go work on those first Saturday quilt blocks.
