• Yesterday was a kind of around the house catch up day! Since the weekend and Monday and Tuesday were mainly devoted to the chicken coop, we had gotten behind on dishes and laundry and general house maintenance.  I did about 4 loads of laundry yesterday. I even used the dryer as I was so far behind I just wanted to get caught up!  I also did two loads of dishes, plus vacuuming and general tidying.

  I also did something wild and crazy yesterday....I pulled out my sewing machine!   Yup, that's right! I do actually sew....not that you would know it the past couple of years!

  I had a hankering to make some hair bun twists.  I finally found wire to do it, but unfortunately, the gauge is wrong and it is too thick.  That's okay though, I will get some different wire and try again!

  Perhaps I should point out that my hair isn't even really long enough for that kind of a bun anyway....I was kind of hoping if I made a bit smaller of a twisty thing that it would work on my hair...Really, what I just need is to figure out a way to make my hair grow faster.  Any tips?

  I also saw another nifty thing I'd like to try. It's a cloth hanky dispenser, brilliantly and simply done.

  I feel like I have a bit of the sewing bug!
