My mother told me there'd be days like that. She just didn't tell me how many. LOL

I wanted to be outside and enjoy the day and cut patches and had to leave for a few minutes. The heat from the sun warped a perfectly good mat! Won't do that again. Of course I remember not too long ago when I was playing an LP on my phonograph. It sounded funny. The sun warped the record as it was playing. And it was one of my favorite LP's.

One more, how many of you sit and watch tv and change the channel with the cordless phone and/or try to talk into the remote control? Done that more times than I care to count. Boy, talk about Senior Moments turning into hours. I can so relate to that. Edie

Just came in from early AM gardening, hot sweaty and ready for that second cuppa. Two minutes here and I was in hysterics. You folks just make my days. Thank God, there's a few of those I haven't done yet but give me a couple of more years.

What a way to start the day. With giggles and smiles.
I guess me picking up my starch spray bottle instead of my water spray bottle and using that on my hair isn't so bad after all.

I'm sure I got my naturally curly hair from my dad! One morning he was getting ready for work and grabbed a can of spray starch instead of hair spray...had the cutest little ringlets when he got home that night!
Try putting one of those fuzzy ponytailer bands around the starch can!

Thanks to everyone! I was so frazzled and then I got to laughing. I checked this every hour or so and am still laughing. Finished one quilt except for sewing on the binding and the one I put the spray baste on is almost completely quilted. Had a good day after all.
