Today, I got that in regards to the quilting I was doing.

    I was quilting and hadn't thought to eat all day. I was reminded when I started to get dizzy. So, I got up to get some low fat frozen yogurt to keep in my dieting and to stave off the hot flashes that have plagued me all morning. Two minutes later, my 8 year old DD came in for some help and saw me sucking on a semi-frozen spoon. She looked around and saw the semi-finished quilt only about 5 feet from me. She looked at me sternly and said, "But I thought we weren't supposed to bring food within 10 feet of the quilts or the sewing machine!" :lol: Whooops!
    when you get that dizzy, check your sugars, and eat PROTEIN..like peanut butter or cheese..not frozen yogurt..shame on you...heheheh

    We are trying to teach Olivia (22 mo) not to spit. Well I have sinus drainage and the other day we were walking and I spit. Olivia says "No no Mimi, no spit". Yep I was busted. I told her I was wrong.

    Ya- don't do what I do, do what I say. They have great memories when it's in their favor.
