More single girl fun

I decided that is been too hot to play golf and I need an indoor hobby. Well I go to the hobby store and look around. I see this nice kit where you embroidery butterflies on the end of white pillowcases. I'm thinking that sounds awesome even though I'm not much of a hobby girl. Well, I buy the kit and it tells
you what color of floss to buy so I buy the 15 colors.

  • Day 1: I come home and start reading the directions, but it seems complicated because they have 3 stitches and I'm just trying to figure it all out. They have a chart to show what stitches on the pattern and what colors and how many strands to use.
  • Day 2: Ready to start. Oh wait. I don't have an embroidery hoop.
  • Day 3: Purchase embroidery hoop.
  • Day 4: Ready to start. Put my pillow case on my embroidery hoop. Oops. I don't have embroidery needles.
  • Day 5: Busy, busy, stuck in traffic, go to Target, but they don't have embroidery needles.
  • Day 6: Go to Walmart and get the needles.
  • Day 7: Finally, have everything I need to start. Realize it's a lot harder than I thought. It takes me 4 hours to do one butterfly.
  • Day 8: Okay, I'm starting to get it a little. Things are looking up.
Had a great day shopping with Hayley on Saturday. We had a blast. 

We did our Nicki Minaj impressions with the headband bangs we found at Ross. 

We said we'd eat healthy, but stopped at Wing Stop instead. Shopping for cheap jewelry at Sam Moon. See girls in car next to us....four of them...take selfies with the phone. They catch us watching and laughing and then they are all laughing. It was a long light, so we all laughed a long time.

 My daughter can be so mean, but she can be so much fun to be around...when she's in a good mood.


I'm thinking about cleaning my golf clubs. The weather is supposed to cool down this week, so I'm ready for some golf again. Maybe I'll give up the embroidery until winter. I did get my driver and 3-wood re-gripped.
