Regency House Party (PBS)
In the episode that was shown last night, the women were going to spend four
hours in the house doing needlework while the men went out doing something else. Well, we saw the *empty* fabric in the floor hoop, and we saw the lovely colors of silks being unfolded from their wrapping, but we did not see one bit of needlework being done, only the grousing about being confined to the house while the guys got to do something fun. OK, ladies, I'm confining you ALL to my sitting room for four hours this afternoon to do needlework, and the first one to *itch about being confined to the house with stitching gets the stitching equivalent of tarred and feathered -- we slather you with melted chocolate and then roll you in orts and dust bunnies! Sorry, Fred and Gary, *you* have to go out tromping through the wilderness with the menfolk. *You're* allowed to *itch about it. -- Finished 9/24/04 - Quilt Show WIP: Fireman's Prayer (#2), Amid Amish Life, Angel of Autumn, Calif Sampler, Holiday Snowglobe Paralegal - Writer - Editor - Researcher http://hometown.aol.com/kmc528/KMC.html |

As long as my toddler is in competent care somewhere else, count me in!

Well today is Remembrance Day in Canada and I had the day off work. As part of the Week of Remembrance on the History Channel they were showing a 6 part documentary on Canadians in WWII (For King and Country, by the same people who did For King and Empire about Canadians in WWI, for those who are curious). I designated those six hours as stitching time. Wow, can you get a lot done, even when the frogs visit a little too frequently. Now, I'm hanging out with my 15 and 16 year old cousins. They are playing video games etc. While I cross stitch or check on you guys. I guess I should make up beds for them and go to bed myself. I do have to work tomorrow. Rachel |
