So so wet

we have received 107mm of rain since 9am

we received 76.2mm of rain between midnight and 9 am

its very soggy indeed.

and apparently there is more rain on the way

I didn't shut the lounge room/dining room windows last

night before I went to bed so when dh got up he had to do a

spot of mopping, oops, Henrys little quilt had to go into the

dryer, dh's laptop got a wash too, but its all ok and working

fine and Miss Emma's doona got an unexpected wash, so we

lit the fire to dry it out, it may have been chilly outside but

it was toasty warm inside :)

 the bright side of all that rain is its perfect guilt

free sewing time

not that I go to do much of that today

dh and I went to Merimbula in the rain this morning

to get some backing fabric for my in the garden quilt,

some floss for the last button club wall hanging

'Christmas Fun'

some new blue washaway clover pens (I bought 3)

and a crappy white pen for dark fabric

some fabric to bind a quilt that I bought home

to quilt on Frank for mum and

umbrellas for the girlies

and a short expensive trip to Woolies for a few groceries

and I mean a few, $150 later we were on our way home

so dh could go to work and I could do the

 washing, prepped some more centres for my hexagon quilt

and cut out some more white fabric ready for tomorrow when I

get to sew up a storm making some more hexies,

and I want to prep the first button block ready for tomorrow night

bloody stupid football is on so I am downstairs for the evening......

and I ordered season 1 of Lark Rise to Candleford at Sanity

it was a great way to spend a miserable day :)
