- An Ambitious Project
Electronic Sewing Kit
Painting bedrooms isn’t really ambitious, steaming wallpaper off the hallway walls, not really. I have taken out a huge patch of bittersweet, that was a job and a half, but I wouldn’t call it ambitious. I know, we had a pretty ottoman covered in a burgundy soft fabric with a warm tapestry covering of the top of the ottoman. Rex ate it, the remains of the ottoman when I got home seemed beyond help. I was determined to repair that ottoman first to save Rex from getting yelled at over eating another piece of furniture, he was eating us out of house and home and second to see if I could. I don’t sew but I got out my sewing kit and got into the surgical zone and pieced the foam back together and then patiently stitched all the pieces back into place. Other than I, no one had a clue that the ottoman had been all but destroyed.

That’s a good story 🙂
It was, believe or not, one of my achievements that I am very proud of, simply because I haven’t been much of a sewer. My pride comes from the fact that despite giving up on becoming a surgeon because of my tremors, I did a kick butt job on that ottoman, I could have been a plastic surgeon
