Blink and you’ll miss it.

Did anyone see my weekend ? Its usually three days long and involves some sewing, some baking and a bit of lolling.

One minute it was Friday morning and the next thing it’s Monday and I am getting ready for work again.

Feeling old people, feeling old.

    never mind, there'll be another one along soon.

    I'm 97.

    How did you do that? Is it applique?

    I likes it.

    Beautiful & very clever hand stitching Jodie - I've only recently REdiscovered hand stitching and it's the slow road I like to travel most evenings.

    My weekends start on Monday and end around 2:45pm Wednesday with me standing there saying to myself where did the time go...

    It's when you feel like that after a year (which I do) when you really have to worry.

    Tell me about it! Sometimes I get back to school on Monday and a child asks how my weekend was - and I truthfully want to say that I don't know - that it went by so fast, with all of the things that pile up form the week. But, I play the good adult and usually say fine and ask about what they did.

    Yes, how did that happen? I don't mean the weekend--that's just cosmic law--I mean the two color fabric? Radical.

    I'm trying to work out what that swear word might be! I won't say what I think as I don't want to offend any listening ears :)

    I remember during my teens laughing at all the "old people" (usually my parents in their 40s) who said that time speeds up the older you get. Yeah well - not so blooming funny now I can tell you!!

    Welcome to my world! I always feel so sad on Monday if I didn't spend even 5 minutes at my sewing machine and this was one of those weekends. I did, however get to enjoy watching my daughter play 4 outstanding grass hockey games (2 in the pouring rain!). I LOVE your stitchery hoop.

    I had planned a full weekend of sewing and then life happened - grocery shopping so that the devil spawn could tell me that there is nothing to eat in the house; housework so that my efforts of a couple of hours are gone in 5 minutes of family time; husband away working so that meant Sunday footy, running older child to work and this was just the beginning. So, how much sewing got done on my free weekend? NONE! I agree with you - *%@#!
    (I do love my family, really I do)

    Reminds me of that thing going around FB, something like you wake at 6.00am...close your eyes for 5 minutes and its 7.45am. You close your eyes at work at 9.30am for 5 minutes and it's 9.31am!!!! haha

    LOVE that swearing hoop Jodie!

    I know how you feel ... our weekends are slippery and elusive and they sneak on by despite all our best-laid plans to stretch them out. Hope you get a good break soon.
