Needles and Threads

-

This is my little sewing kit.

I'm not sure I'll use those flourescent threads very often, but it's cool that it's included.  Anyway, I needed to cinch something today, and instead of using one of my "regular" needle keepers, I decided to use the ones in the kit.

Guys, the needles in this kit?  So tiny I could not get a photo of their eyes.  Seriously.  To drive home the message even more, these should have been the needles Jesus* had in mind:

I've got a headache today.  Not news for me, I realize, but I started a new medication Wednesday, and have had a headache each day since.  As much as I hate to call a doctor's office on a Monday, I think I'd better tomorrow.

Happy Birthday to

Wear some boots today in Sam's honor.

Eyes in needles seem to be getting smaller every year. It may just be my eyes but I swear it's hard even getting the tiniest of thread through some of them.

Went to Atlanta for a postponed Mother's Day day today.   First stop:  H Mart .  Completely overwhelming.  We stuck to pre-packaged things, so as not to leave fresh and/or frozen things in my car.  Interesting along the way: and Now, I'm not trying to be culturally insensitive, but, no thanks. Next: a  rotating sushi  bar.*  Delicious.  I tried to keep myself in check, as Hannah was paying.  Let's just say I could have eaten much more. Then back to her apartment to watch "Barbie."  She had even bought special drinks. Another special day. *The sushi rotated, not the building.
