I currently have 3 pairs of jeans. 1 pair is presentable, 1 is wearable and the other are in their ninth year, do nothing for me but I hold onto because I can’t find another pair that is right.

To be honest I would live without jeans because I like skirts and dresses but have chubby thighs which rub together. It's ok in winter when I can wear tights or leggings but the summer is a nightmare. I have cut of tights in the past though to try and stop the problem.
Not much done today. One load of washing on the line and that's it. I hope I have more oomph tomorrow.

Hello all
Not much from me again so far today. I really need to get my mojo going again because I don't want to get back to square one.
I have got up to date with washing but just need to put it away. My usual nemesis;)
I would like to fill up my green bin tonight. Fingers crossed the rain will hold off. It's looking a bit dull.
I'm going to try to do some sewing this week. I feel a bit frustrated not being able to with dodgy hands so I'm going to have a go. I need some new clothes anyway and have some fabric to use.
Anyway have a fab day.1 debt v's 100 days chapter 34: T3sco bank CC £250/£525.24 47.59%

Sending you (((hugs))) and hoping you feel a bit better.
Do you think you may manage the sewing machine if you take it slowly? I know it's difficult to change the way we do things, but may be worth a try if you can achieve something. XXI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

Like Beanie I am full of admiration. Wish I could sew. I tried but in the end I admitted defeat and sold the machine at a car boot sale
If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
