Domestic Doings


I finally got my little boy's curtains done...and they're crooked. So, I'll need to take them down and fix one of them. But otherwise, they are just dandy. The first thing I learned in sewing class in the 7th grade was, "As ye sew, so shall you rip." Looks like that applies today.

Last night we had chicken fajitas for dinner. I used a new recipe, and they were SOOOOO good. If you try them, you may want to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper. I used a scant teaspoon, and man, were they spicy.

My son-in-law was not accepted to LSU Law School. My daughter, my SIL, grandson, and new grandchild-to-be will be moving to Ada, Ohio, where he will attend Ohio Northern for practically free. With so many kids and no savings, practically free is good. But now, I'll have no reason to visit them in Sarasota, and they won't be closer, but farther away.

The domestic life is actually quite seductive. I came down with some sort of cold or sinus thing yesterday mid-afternoon, so it was nice to be in bed until 8:00 a.m. today. It's not much fun just keeping the house clean, but I have some ideas for sprucing up the little boys room, and other "nesting" sorts of things. It makes it hard to stay motivated to look for work.
