I just hate ironing clothes, but I found a way to go through the pile . Whenever I sew, I place the to-be-ironed basket near the I-Board. Every time I get up to open a seam, I iron one piece,before going back to the sewing machine. Certainly have less sewing done but I feel good about the well pressed clothes.

Well, this week should be pretty productive-
Today finished web design for my website.
Tomorrow I will start by taking pictures of my quilt room before I start to organize it and all the fabric!
Pictures to follow if I can figure out how that is done!

As of tonight, I will have to do a little rescheduling because of helping DH with the garage on Mon. and some roofing. Tuesday my back and hips hurt like crazy and I was all cattywompus. My left shoulder was 2" higher than my left shoulder and I ached pretty good. It's what happens when you have fibro., osteo this, osteo that., yada, yada, yada.
I have finished cutting, sewing, washing and ironing 8 more pilllowcases for the Pillowcase Challenge making a total of 16 so far.
Pieced Junes Doll quilt, quilted it, will finish binding Thursday afternoon or eve.
Finished piecing July Doll quilt, had it quilted, didn't like it, took it out, will redo tom then bind it.
Cleaned up my sewing area.
Did more laundry, dinner, talked to DS three times as he was driving to Kansas CIty area, had good talk with DD about her job(s), talked with Workman's Comp. Dr..
Thursday I will tie up the tomato plant tops (boy are they looking good), finish cleaning my gardening bench in the garage, brush Laddie, clip Kadens nails, mow the lawn (approx. 2 acres) and trim front yard, shower, dinner, sew.

1) Finish painting the closet doors in my daughter's room. DONE!!!!
2) Finish my July doll quilt. (All cut out, just needing to sew it together.) Getting there...
3) Kill the scary stuff growing in my dh's bathroom. Then paint the entire bathroom a BRIGHT yellow. Killed the ickies... painting as soon as I get off the computer!
4) VBS every night from 6 to 8pm! (I am the basket weaver) Three nights down... two to go. They asked me to decorate a cake for Friday, but I declined. I ordered one from Sam's instead!!!
5) Take the kids to the zoo on Wednesday morning before the temperature hits 100+ degrees! DONE! We left by noon because it was TOO HOT!
6) Finish all the laundry and reorganize the closet. Did one load so far... today's the day for laundry too! (Closet will have to wait.)
7) Clean out the garage enough to park my vehicle in it! Not going to happen this week. Oh well.
8) Finish my two distance learning classes and get mailed off. Almost done with one. Just need to type it up. Will start the other one next week.
9) Begin lesson planning for next school year. (I am teaching a new subject, so I am starting from scratch!) Again, putting off til next week.
10) Get my kitchen ready for a new dishwasher that is hopefully going to be delivered this week! Pretty clean and ready, they just haven't called to let me know it is in. Guess that will have to be next week too.
