Sew crazy

I am trying to sew Derek's patches on his Cub Scout uniform. It is not going well. Why am I sewing them just hours before the meeting you ask? I have no idea why.

I went today to get a pencil sharpener. Derek always complains he just cant get his homework done nice and neatly because the pencil sharper we had (manual) wasnt getting his pencil nice and sharp. And it wasnt. So I go to Staples today and I get one and the lady says "Ok $32" and I almost passed out. I said "No. " and she said "yes it's $32" and I said "I dont want it then. The sticker said it was $9." she goes with me to get the sticker and sure enough it came to an even better price of $8.08 plus she gave me a "rebate thingy" she says for $5.00 back. Oh yes my $32.00 sharpener came to $3. oh yeah baby.

You see I spent the morning paying bills and making money go from here to there and paying every little nickel and dime that we owe to get it ALL cleaned up. Lunch money they said Derek owed fifty cents. The college said I owed six bucks I dont know why I just paid it. The library said I had a fine going to pay that too. Then along comes a $32 sharpener for $3.00. It's Karma baby. Kar-maha!

Ok I am off to hang with 3 billion boy scouts you are so so jealous of my life thats why you read my blog. You so want to be me.
Smoochies.

All I have to say is Badge Magic Baby.... It is what us Moms who never learned (or wanted to learn) how to sew use
