I purge, you splurge..
I saw that on a posting for a Garage sale and thought it sounded funny...I've been putting off purging the studio, I've been 'threatening' to do it all week, and I do believe today is the day...Put some football on the tube, grab some boxes for 'donate, sell, toss' and just get going...Should I take before and after pics?
We went back to the butterfly garden and nursery yesterday to pick up a large metal arch for our yard...it looks great, and I plan to plant an antique climbing rose next to it to cover it all up! This is the time of year to plant in Texas, our winters are mild (did I mention its going to be 90 tomorrow? um, yeah...) and its easier to get plants established to handle the heat next summer if we plant now...So I do believe we'll be hitting the Antique Rose Emporium very soon...
Did you watch the weirdness of Austin on the 'CBS Sunday Morning' program this morning? Bill Geist did a story on how weird Austin is and a local play showcasing our weirdo local residents...a lady who drives a car covered in Pig paraphanalia, an Elvis impersonator with a Texas cape, a lady who has large dots painted in her lawn and others...I hope you caught it, it showed how fun a town this is, if you can show a town in a 5 minute segment...

Hey Donna,
I highly recommend the "purging of the studio" - I spent most of yesterday purging and reorganizing - finally had to admit I will never start (never mind finish) a single quilt, so off goes all my fabric to my mother-in-law who is a fabulous quilter and will love all the fabric. Lots of Stuff for Goodwill and more room for beads!!! I feel like a a ton of bricks has been lifted off my shoulders - the studio is back to being a fun place!!
