Stew and Steve are getting up around 7.30 this morning, they are going to watch the Rugby World Cup together.
Awwww.... bonding shit going on. lol
The All Blacks vs. Ireland.
Ireland are playing exceptionally well right now, and have beaten the All Blacks 4 out of the last 5 times they have faced each other.
Ireland are the Number 1 team in the world right now.
So, it should be a good game. I hope the All Blacks do well, or Stew is gunna be annoyed.
I am expecting Bex and the boys over later on in the morning, and Lacy. So we should have a nice little get together.
I don't plan on doing too much today, I might get some sewing done this afternoon, time will tell.
After the game Steve and Stew are going to put the shelves up in our two 'spare' wardrobes. I am soooooo looking forward to that. My linen is no longer going to be SQUISHED into the linen cupboards.
Hence the desire to have more linen cupboards.
"I probably have too much linen", said NO WOMAN EVER!
You can never have too much linen!
Over the years I've given away to my kids heaps of linen, many, many times over. And I still have heaps.
My Mum was the same, she LOVED buying linen.
DOGSTARS: You are correct! I do usually stitch with black thread around the fish! I don't know why I chose to use coloured thread this time. I am going back to Black, as they do stand out better with the black outline.
Right, time to NOT GET UP. I'm gunna be a lazy tart and stay in bed for a bit longer. I've no reason to get up early.
5.24 pm: And it's quiet again. We have had a lovely, busy family day.
I bought clear plastic storage bags and my linen is stored in them, on shelves, in a closet much like the size of yours.
ReplyDeleteThe plastic keeps them very organized and free from dust. It also “contains” things like comforters that are hard to fold/stay folded.
It was shocking how much these bags reduced the volume.

Also my shelves are as deep as possible. They come all the way out to edge of door frame. That makes a big difference too.

Go The All Black's 💯✌️

I need Steve. We have zero storage space and it drives me insane
ReplyDeleteMy dad and I started watching the World Cup rugby game between Wales and Argentina. We know nothing about rugby (American of course.). Would you and Stew please provide some basics? Like how points are scored? Why does the one guy wear the funny headpiece covering his ears? What’s the point of a scrum? It was very exciting though. I’d like to know more.

DeleteI rarely watch sports. If I do for some extreme situation (home team is in the world series or something) I DOOO want "my" team to win.
ReplyDeleteI actually like the coloured thread on the fish. It makes the eyes pop more.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of you and your grandbabies!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of linen, just a change of sheets for our bed and two sets for the spare beds. I have about 12 towels and some flannels. I suppose it's just not my thing :) You can't beat having lots of shelves though.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for the "after" pic of the closet! I shall have to wait for "tomorrows" post......
ReplyDeleteExcited for your two new linen cupboards. I have more than normal but have to drive hours to buy any to replace and they seem to wear out in the blink of an eye. Lovely pix of you and your three youngest grands so far. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures with the kids! Looks like a busy day! I wish I had more closets. If the last kid ever moves out I'll have another haha.
