Well today was rather uneventful. But aside from being a Crabby Pants this morning, Michael had a good husband day and took me to town so that I could pick up some more material for my dragonflies. He even helped me pick some bead colors. AND he just got back from IKEA where he bought me a tray so that I can have a flat place to make them when I am sitting on the couch. First of all, he hates going down town and IKEA so that fact that he did those things is very sweet and supportive. They all have those great days once in a while.
If I would have thought about it, I would have taken pictures of the kids playing in the slip and slide. They were VERY funny and cute. Also, I have added a couple more dragonflies to my etsy store and added more pictures to existing ones. JennyP said she always likes it when sellers have more than one image of their craft so that she can see them in different lighting. I must say that I agree--and not just because she is my friend. :)
The girls and I took Julia, Tatiana, and their kids to IKEA because after living in the hotel since April, the Powell family has a house here at RB where they wanted to live. Now only Tatiana and her family need one as well. Hopefully theirs will be ready by the 15th of August. ANYWAY, the reason we went was to look for curtains 
for Julia's house. She has them for the rooms in the boys' rooms but needed them for their bedroom, living room, and kitchen. Gotta have curtains to keep nosey neighbors from looking in your house. Sad, but true. We found them for the living room, and bedroom, but nothing in curtain form for the kitchen. She did however find a heavy fabric that she liked and thought it would look good in her black and white kitchen. She got it for 4 euro per yard and bought two yards. I told her that I would sew it for her so that she can use them on Friday when they move in. I don't know if I would have chosen the fabric, BUT I do like it because it looks retro to me. Please note how wonderful the sewing is and be proud that I ironed every single fold like a good girl. JennyP should be proud :)
