Home & Garden Television: Curb Appeal

DH is installing a garage door today for Home & Garden Television: Curb Appeal. So exciting! I checked the details on individual shows and there's a 'Resources' listing that lists who did what work, along with their phone #, website address, etc. I hope there's enough of a lag time before the show airs that I can finish his website.

I wanted to take the day off work to go with him and take pictures and make sure the right people had the right information, etc. (basically I wanted to run the whole thing and act as publicist for Analy Door Systems). But it happened so fast...I didn't get a chance. Instead I left the house mad that we didn't have company shirts to show off the business name (he said he was going to get them but didn't--I couldn't 'cause I had wedding stuff to do), then got a flat tire on the way to work, cell phone battery dead, used all my change on pay phones so none left for parking meter 'cause employee's parking lot was full. Ended up on third floor of parking garage. I know there's a bright side, but I don't feel like looking at it.

Oh wait...here's a bright side: The bridesmaid dresses are finished. Still gotta attach the facing on the MoB suit, then press it.

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).

Easter Ensemble

I sewed! I actually sewed! I got this pretty accordian pleated "broomstick" fabric at my first (and only, so far) BABES gathering (BABES is a group of sistah sewists from the bay area who have Pattern Review in common: I've wanted to make it into a skirt for Easter for 2 years and I finally did! Here it is: I've lost 58 pounds over the past 10 months and this is the first thing I've sewed since I started my diet (Atkins). To go with the skirt I bought a knit top (in the misses department, not the Women's department!) and to complete the outfit my sweet girls gave me a gift certificate for a pedicure so I have matching toenails!

You Were Born in California and Have Never Been to Yosemite?

Until 2 days ago, I would have had to answer, "Nope, never been there." But now I can proudly say, "I have been to Yosemite. I have seen the highest waterfall in the United States, El Capitan, and Half Dome." We joined my brother Bobby and sister-in-law Dee Dee, along with nephew Jeremy, neice Sierra and her hubby Josiah and their little girls Havilah and Gigi for a whirlwind of a weekend that managed to be both exciting and relaxing. On Saturday Bobby & Dee Dee took us on a one-day tour of Yosemite (more pics in the Gallery ). The scenery was tremendous. If there's this much natural beauty just 4 hours from where I live, what wonders must heaven hold? I really enjoyed seeing the families from all over the world. Saturday night Darren & I saw the Eagles at Calaveras County fairgrounds. Great concert. Sunday we kicked back. We did not get enough of Yosemite though and may return this winter.
