Growing Up, My Granny Would Always Babysit Me. She Was A Seamstress By Trade Making Jeans, But Every

Growing up, my granny would always babysit me. She was a seamstress by trade making jeans, but every spare moment she got from the factory was spent quilting or cross stitching so when I was there she would hand me a needle and thread and some scrap squares and tell me to “help” her.

I got older and started creating more on my own, and upon reflecting figured she was just doing that to keep me quiet and focused on something so she could relax. When she passed away in July, I learned that I was the only person in the family who kept on sewing after she taught them, so naturally all of her works in progress and the majority of her fabric stash came to me.

I started going through them today and after opening up the first quilt in progress box, I found it. A quilt top of all the squares we had made together while I was little. It’s a scrappy piece, and just big enough for a baby blanket or maybe a small lap quilt but I’m going to make it the first piece I finish by myself.

casually having a low symptom day the day of a doctors appointment

2nd time is the charm today. Got my appointment scheduled for November. Huzzah.

On hold for my doctor's office and not gonna lie this hold music is boppin.

So it is the new meds and we're going to ask for a lower dose.

I just want to be okayyyyyy

Is that too much to ask

Okay we've officially lost one of our only 2 sets of sheets. My husband and I have incredibly sensitive skin and the only sheets we use are stupid expensive.

If anyone can help us get a new set of sheets we'd be immensely grateful. They're currently $70. Fucking yikes. & that's the cheaper one, the other is $115. The audacity.

Thanks for reading. If you can't help, signal boost please!!
