September 24
Sep. 24th, 2021 12:57 pmIt's late September and I'm wearing sandals today... Not to say that it's completely summery out there but the humidity's annoying.
Too wet out from the overnight rain to do much with gardening today, even if the sun's come out. I should harvest some peppers though, and maybe look at the Hazelnut trees again.
Too tired this morning to do much of anything useful, so nice that I have the energy for a few things this afternoon.
I did get further with that dress I cut out a week or so ago - lordy, I hate that I've become so slow at getting things done. Cooler weather helps some, at least. I did the machine sewing, and even put in pockets! Knit fabric that's a little weighty I guess, because it all looked fine when I cut the pieces out but was too long when I tried it on. So, I shortened it at the shoulders by about 1-1/2" and it fits better. Now I'm at the hand sewing all the edges part.
Going to work more on getting stuff out of the enclosed porch, which actually means not just finding different places for things but using and/or getting rid of stuff. It'll be worth it when it's done.
