When we were shopping the other day , Nature called. Whilst washing my
hands, I kept hearing a: "klunk klunk klunk mutter mutter mutter klunk
klunk klunk" Then this little tiny grandmotherly voiced piped up: "Your
turning it the wrong way "
silence
THANK YOU!
Tiny voice "Your Welcome"
I waited until I was out the door before LOL

IMO, the only thing that matters is that there IS paper on the rack!!

I'm just happy that it's *there*. As long as someone replaced the empty
roll, I can't get too worked up about which way it goes. :)
(Same for the toilet seat. Even at 3 am in the dark, I can figure out
whether it's up or down. As long as the seat is clean and dry, I'm a happy
camper.)

I went SHOPPING! Ended up with a 2 piece outfit for the wedding. First time
I have purchased something Fancy Dancy but still 'calm' enuf to wear to a
nice dinner in a long long time. At less than 1/2 price! Between Mr Joe and
I --we saved $175.00 today. He bought 3 shirts and only paid $.88 apiece for
2 of them and they weren't even 'end of season'!!!!!! And I got my sis a
T-shirt that says: My Heart BEE-longs to my Grandkids. (Sis 's email begins
with BEE Happy)at 1/2 off. So, if any of your fellas need short sleeved
shirts...now is the time to go to J C Penney's. YADAYADAYADA
Butterfly (Feet hurt so much when we got home, that *I* didn't even make
dinner....but it was worth it. )

Hi Pat, glad you're back safe and sound. No such thing as a late posting,
this group is active somewhere on the planet 24/7.
No cutting today so far, but a friend and I went to a small local group's
quilt show this morning, found a few little things to buy, so it might
happen. The quilts were fun, especially some from Latvia -yes! quilters in
Latvia! They are having way too much fun up there -the quilts followed no
"rules" at all. One had large flowers fussy cut from (apparently) drapery
fabric, raw-appliqued to a background with a layer of black netting on top,
and surrounded by fabric braids made from scraps, like for a rag rug. More
braids all around the edge as a border. Another was simply rag strips from
all sorts of fabrics, laid flat and parallel, and sewn together by rows of
stitching perpendicular to the rag rows. Formed a landscape design by the
use of different colors.
There were also very professional-looking gorgeous wall hangings from some
New Zealand quilters. Didn't recognize any names, and forgot to write them
down.
I bought a little kit, something I almost never do, for a little zipper
pouch. It just appealed. And some decent fabric bargains.
Roberta in D, off to start the washing machine, there's about enough for a
load
