I'm one of the 75% of Americans (according to my TV this morning) that is glad to see end of 2009. So Happy New Year and new decade. We have some casual dinner plans at a sports bar to watch the UT/VA Tech game tonight. Likely won't make it to midnight, though I may want to stick around just to be sure 2009 really leaves us.
And because I can't be left out of a year-end theme, I'd like to recap my 2009 sewing. I didn't make any goals and likely won't for 2010, either. I just want to enjoy doing it, not work towards specific goals. But I did: buy a new machine, learn to embroider, learned to love BWOF and not hate tracing them, make many awesome pairs of pants (see the BWOF line), learn to knit, meet a couple of SG friends in person, and to toss hideous fabric down the trash chute. For 2010 my single goal is to spent more time in my sewing room. I've spent the last 3 months without setting foot in it (except to iron occasionally and to cut out one pair of still unsewn slacks). Oh, and to avoid putting bad embroidery on ill fitting clothing - so far, so good, but I'm getting worried.
So here's to 2010. And HAPPY NEW YEAR!
For far too long I lead a crazy busy life but this year was by far my calmest. I can now inform you that you have overtaken me in that department! My God! Just reading your blog these past few months has left me breathless!! I sincerely hope that things calm down for you in the new year but by all means keep that sense of humor!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I watched that ballgame, and let me say 2009 went out just as I expected. Nuff said. Let's wipe it off the slate of all time, and never look back! NEVER! K
ReplyDeleteNever look back, I always say. Well, I don't always, but when the VOLS play like they did last night I say it!!! hope you have a wonderful 2010!
