Reap what you Sew. :lol: Sew is underlined in green on my iPad mini. probably because sowing what you reap is spelt with an O, rather than an E, but SEW#553 was a defining moment of a significant revelation with the latest recording of it here. Likely future posts there, here and elsewhere will eludicate further, but suffice it to say Sewing is a skill that I lack greatly and must at times recruit Magical Maes, Josephines or whatever name happens to be discovered within the local community. 553 helps me keep track of important details like that. 8-)

How's things going? Maybe if things aren't working out a change is needed?

I'm feeling overwhelmed this weekend, it will pass. Just rearranging furniture to distract myself. Kids are building a jigsaw upstairs. Very cute. I'll get the room sorted and then probably do some autumn crafts. We at times try to make a seasonal banner and it seems to be that autumn is the most enjoyable to make. Probably because they can collect leaves and stick them on.

Hopefully October ends our overwhelming as September passes slowly into the halls of history. My leaf blower worked great for blowing out my garage in addition to making quick work of the colorful invaders on my driveway. Your projects sound fun. :mrgreen:

What picture is on the puzzle. :?:

Mae’s Magical Menagerie in Wasilla did the deed and her picture shows the proper use of a green pin which may ensure no slippage when the 57 pound bucket comes crashing down. Mae’s my daughter’s middle name. She was born on Flag Day in the First State. 8-)

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Changing from OK to AK sure screwed things up for a while. Hopefully Grainger delivers my order this week. It was supposed to arrive two Fridays ago. :?

Things hopefully go operational before the days get shorter than 10 hours.

Valo asked to see the picture, maybe he’ll sow seeds too. :|

Well, the dining room is now full of all sorts of brown leaves, acorns and even some bugs. I discovered only I was sticking their collection to the cardboard and decided I needed a break. They enjoyed collecting the stuff but didn't really want to put any effort in to complete the project.

You need fuel? Looks like a fuel can. Hope your order comes through and progress is made. Winter is a time of slowing down over here. Kinda get hung up on dealing with being ready for Christmas and just trying to avoid winter blues. Don't know what it is like for you guys but it is beginning to feel like winter here with the dark looming. I think people tend to sow seeds in the spring? Not sure. Maybe I'm wrong. Not a very good gardener or sewer.

Sending positive energy your way and hopefully what you desire works out. Fingers crossed.

Thank you Pirate, for remembering and hope things go well for you.

Doing OK, just massive learning curve Fusion 360 and mixed 3D printer results.

Two more weeks to tweak the design, then let the rollout begin. :?

Canadian Guy inspired https://slogbog.com/viewtopic.php?t=1173 and is the main bang at the bog for wizardly updates.

...There's not a 4 year old child in the US (or possibly a 3 year old) who doesn't know what this sign "says".

I'm more than happy to admit I don't have the abilities of a four or even a three year old in the US because I have no idea what this sign would universally mean to children. Can you give a hint?

Thanks for idea about another local source for something The Wicker Man suggested for my ailing heart, here. The picture was the closest thing available anywhere near Wasilla. :lol:

So, my son's room, I was delayed because we needed more white paint. Ordered white and black paint. Then had Christmas and a couple of bouts of fatigue. So today I put new curtains up, a black set with a white net type over the top. Will take a photo in daytime.

Was tucking him in and he said, since you haven't fully finished my room can I change the theme :shock: (I'm not sure if he has a new 'special interest' but he is very much into my singing monsters and he talks about it constantly and talks about it as if everyone knows all about them too and as if they are a normal part of life). So, I explained that because we have already done white all over and bought black and grey things for the room (lamp, light shade, curtains, paint, vinyl, black magnetic picture frames) can we continue with the black and white but I'll pack away the star wars canvases for another time and put my singing monsters posters and stickers up instead and get some my singing monsters bedding. I think he may have wanted green walls. I think what I might do is use lining paper, maybe do two layers and paint a large my singing monsters scene for him instead and then when it comes to changing it, I can peel the lining paper off. I took daughter's chandelier up to wire it and discovered I needed to buy a fitting to connect the wires together so I wasn't able to do that today but because I used the same paint as the paint on her walls it just looks awesome (I think anyway). Will take a picture when that's up. I haven't changed her room. She did ask if I could paint axolotls but I'm glad I didn't because she's not bothered now.

So, next week, we have an inspection and because I took wallpaper off in our room and then put filler all over, I need to up the priority of that room which I wasn't bothered about but it's the smallest room in the house so I think it can probably be done in a day.
https://slogbog.com/viewtopic.php?p=394 ... ular#p3940 Shows tremendous results after only the third day of a ten day regiment. I have long suffered from chronic fatigue, but then about 2012 I had one year of amazing energy when I began taking Niagen. Today I feel like a new man. :!:

That way we could be Gods in Embryo as long we followed the plan and were the first ones to get Yahtzee.
Not God's in embroy exactly. Worms that can be eagles. No need to learn Yahtzee either. But controlling your appetite is a good idea if you want to be an eagle. You can remain a worm. No harm, no foul. :D But worms don't have arms, legs, eyes, ears, nose, and definitely not wings! :D
Yahtzee definitely had wings, albeit they were always clipped. He was a pretty yellow cockatiel that was on the slow side compared to Zoey, who was a at-times vicious grey. Anyway they were two of six that traveled by car with us from SLC to OKC in 2002.

We struggled to come up with a name for him, but didn't like any on the plethora of name your baby sites. Yahtzee is likely missing, because it's really a trade name. We all were there missing the olympics, but came away with the photo, top-center at March8Miracle.org.
