Done With Lemonade . . .n

So now that I have all the citrus fruit all "processed" and stored away by bottling the lemon juice and juicing a bunch of the tangarines/clememtines/mandarin oranges I have my life back.  I am not sure why, but Jon decided that picking it ALL at one time was a good idea on Monday while Sarah was here to help me make more decisions in the culling process.  I guess it was, she just walked in and started juicing the lemons.  It is SO much faster with two people, one cutting and the other juicing.  It is also nice to be able to trade back and forth.. Docs are still trying to figure out why her hands hurt so much.  An anti-inflammatory is keeping the swelling down and maybe helping the pain so maybe soon some answers will be cropping their little heads up.  Peeling and slicing a pineapple made my touchy shoulder flare back up so the trading places helped me too.



So now I am back to the FINAL pile of Christmas stuff, lurking around in the guise of  "crafts" and crafts materials so that should be fast and easy, SO tired of stuff that it is all looking like junk (as opposed to junque).  Hmmmm, that sounds just a little familiar, doesn't it?  Famous last words . . ?



We culled more out of my giant cupboards in the sewing room and created more room  YIPPEE!!!    This is my favorite cupboard, esthetically speaking.  Brianna is the one that thought of putting the thread holders on the inside of the doors and I have loved it, when I could get to the cupboards to get to the thread and all the little organizers.


Not so pretty, but I know what is in each bin and I can find it!!

So excited to create a sewing room with all of my eccentricities in full bloom, where no one can have any say, MY room,  MY way, My fun!!  Just wait, it will be really . . . . . . .  something?
