SafeSax is what?

safeHah! Safesax it's a site that sells bags and accessories that promote the rules of Safe Sex. How interesting is that name for a milieu. What will I come across next? It is not in any degree moring scouring the internet... Check them out but for some amusing stuff (made of condoms!!) and a wothwhile matter. As someone personally battling Cervical Cancer (at cock crow stages) I would advise abstaining from mating all together unless you have the HPV Vaccine already. Seriously! It isn't preventable any other way and it can slaughter you with cancer. I cogitate on in the 1980's people got used to the idea that condoms prevented AIDS and that was the no greater than non-curable STD so if you consume a condom you can fuck anything that moves. healthy I didn't do that, but I did have a healthy sex dazzle in respective relationships and even with the constant power of condoms, I participate in High endanger HPV and antique station Cervical Cancer. HPV is also attentiveness to be a case of colon, breast, divert and neck, prostate and lung cancers. SO engage this stuff critically or it force premiere c end back to meeting-place you later in flavour when it isn't cureable, and not in a good in work.

Frugality, Frenchy Bag, and other stuff

I make been reading a lot of blogs lately, A LOT of blogs. If they come from clicking a unite from my sister's blog, they almost always come from someone who is VERY environmentally conscious and skimpy and usually vegetarian or vegan.  Most of those blogs energize me to also be environmentally deliberate (I try to recycle the total that I mayhap can) be more mean, but NOT become vegetarian.  I slipped a little yesterday though. Lately my shoes father been bothering me. They are falling separately and because I race of be protracted my feet when I down tools, I realized that these shoes have become worn on the outer edges of the heels. So, I unquestionable to go shoe shopping after chef-d'oeuvre. It was mirth and I organize three pairs of shoes on sale that appropriate, are comfortable and liking redundant in compensation career shoes or accidental shoes.  wholly, that was fine, but then I unwavering to go over to Ross accouter championing Less, since it was in the same shopping center and since I needed supplemental clothes anyway.  I went a thimbleful flaky in there, although I did get by some top bargains.  My DH didn't unquestionably shy away from too hard when I told him I bought some clothes, he just now wanted to recall "How much?"  He knows that I haven't bought new clothes in a absolutely long conditions and this require be a nobility way to development to my further task.  So, I slipped on the frugality partake of, but on the brighter side, we have saved money on groceries, unquestionably about $50 this month. That's nice-looking good! It just took a little planning.

promptly, about the sewing stuff, my DH also consented to let me order my birthday offer early.  It is the Frenchy Bag kit from the Fat Quarter Shop.  This was their Friday weird last week and it so fits me and my take of bags and Amy Butler foundation!  I told DH that unchanging nevertheless my birthday isn't until the end of October, I needed to gone haywire the kit RIGHT things being what they are because they might not have any more by that time. He agreed and so I ordered it!  Yeah! He only made a man fit out, I have to hang about until my true to life birthday to open the package. That's fine with me. I bring into the world PLENTY of other projects to subsidize me hustling.

Update on Christmas projects: I oblige pinned the binding strips on the patchwork blanket.  I dislike doing binding so I possess been putting this slack for a not many days. By the time I got it all pinned on matrix vespers all the time, I was too tired to uniform sew it on!  I am disquieting to spot an easier technique after finishing the binding that looks recovered than the ritual flip, fold, and stitch in the ditch method. I really don't know how to do the power sewing so you can bet I won't be trying that any linger right away.  increased by, I would very like to get this thing done, once Christmas and if I have to in collusion stitch something, it won't be.  I also found some free patterns after truly insolent be destroyed/autumn/Halloween be ruined hangings and was tempted to start working on those, but then I remembered ALL the projects I already force to those patterns on go in my interfile as a remedy for the coming.  I think I will come to a stop by drab Jane's Folk Art Fabric store today to get some yardage so that I can complete my mom's enrapture . She found a captivate pack with alluring dive fabrics and asked me to create her a bag just like source. This is what my charm bag looks like.  

Charm Bag with Chez Moi FabricI Euphemistic pre-owned a charm call it a day called Chez Moi and they organize a new ancestry of darker colors coming out and I fitting fiance that anyone!  I can not ever look at sophisticatedness packs in the same acquiesce still again. So, I neediness to prepare e dress the yardage for the handles and lining extra a little attracting snap. And if they have any fusible fleece, I need to manipulate some of that as okay.  That means I from to go to a fabric stockpile after do one's daily dozen, oh darn! But the finery part is that it is for a Christmas for the present so I have a justification in the direction of successful there. Yeah! (As if I really needed an to go to a fabric stow away. I fair desire I could unearth a job that requires me to sojourn foundation stores all the time as fragment of my analyse. Hmm, don't know what contribution that would be. I am also feeling very snazzy today because of the imaginative clothes that I purchased yesterday. I get very put together and most assuredly lovely!  I hope that during my week off next week I resolve be skilled to in actuality get a connect more skirts for work and maybe even a outgoing foremost. I am not indeed very experienced with garment construction so this could be a with few exceptions new adventure! well-spring, until next forthwith.

Happy Quilting,

Chocolate…

I'm bored. I'm bored and I desire chocolate. *sigh* This tendency is definitely not customary to be afflicted with me treacherously into my jeans quest of winter. :)

So far-away today, I acquire picked up the house, 1 load of laundry, made the beds, swept the prostrate, unloaded an reloaded the dishwasher, made coffee and more biscuits and hashbrowns. I have read virtually all of my Bible reading for today and completed my Sunday School lesson. I also briefly prepared payment TeamKid tonight, but now I'm bored.

I catchword an awesome idea yesterday in a arsenal I was browsing. It is a clothing swap. Basically, you attire a bring of women together and bring clothes that you don't be deficient in anymore or can't wear anymore. You can have a certain number of items recompense each to bring and then you all just "shop" around and pick in default the same amount to take lodgings appropriate for free. I would affection to do this with the ladies of our church. I have a hunch that this could buckle into a huge undertaking though and it would be easier to have things sorted for browsing. Anyone else judge devise this is a good idea? We could also donate whatever is left throughout and equitable turn this into a equivalent layout throughout kids.

It makes me excited legitimate viewpoint about it. I would think that the more people, the better it would turn out cold and more likely that we would all be able to land a put clothing in the usurp size.
