That was my thought today when I got off the phone from a conversation with our realtor...
"I'm too old for this pogo stick!" I feel like I'm bouncing up and down... good news... bad news... no news... more questions... aauugghh! LOL
So - what's a girl to do? Seemed like a good time for a ROAD TRIP!
I decided I wanted a real live honest to goodness hamburger and french fries. So I headed out to a diner out near where our (hopefully) new to us house is. Mmmm that was a good burger - I ate almost all the fries too because they were very crispy! Sorry no pictures... I was very hungry!
Then I decided to see just how far away Burkholders Fabric was. Ssssshhhhhh... don't tell The Engineer - but it's just a hop, skip and a jump away. Not as close as Sauders Fabric is to the new house - but close enough to head over any time I needed something they might have... I'd say less than a 20 minute drive.
It was late - so I only stayed long enough to get a good whiff of sizing, cruised the isles to feast my eyes on the colors and prints available and then I treated myself to a new pattern. I'm thinking it will work for the Prairie Paisley 'Layer Cake' I bought myself at the Lancaster show. Who knew that stack of 10" squares was called a layer cake?
I sure needed that trip out of the house on this mild sunny spring day - a few hours of not thinking about inspections or negotiations. Yep - I feel refreshed!
Of course tomorrow will be a different day... and I say "bring it on!" (but not too loudly)
Oh and a PS... check out the links over at the top of the side bar. I'm going to be adding some 'Green Links' as I come across some to share. If you haven't watched The Story of Stuff... you should check it out! Very Interesting!
