Mama's Got a Brand New Bag

I made a new bag for toting around library books. I made it from a pillowcase. I went to Creative Kismet's blog and used her tutorial. It took less than 30 minutes start to finish. It turned out really cute! I wish I had my camera.I could whip up about a million of them to use as grocery totes, book totes, etc. Pillowcases are going to be high on my thrifting and garage sale list now.


I also "made" a complaint. I emailed Comcast and complained about the football line up today. I knew in advance that we weren't going to get the Dallas game. I THOUGHT it might be because they were going to show another game, like the Chargers or some other west coast team. No harm, no foul. BUT NOOOOOO! We were treated to Hillbillies on bikes. I KID YOU NOT! Fox showed these dumkoffs on motocross bikes and had this yokel who was "comically" commentating in a well, the best it could be called is hillbilly voice- no disrespect to any hillbilly. I was livid. It is one thing to not show a game because another closer team is playing, but to show stupid stuff instead, just makes me mad. And it wasn't even like it was something important to motocross, that stupid show was like something you'd see on World's Dumbest whatevers.

But my lovely husband took me to the Blazing Onion where we got to see at least highlights of the Cowboys-beat-the-Eagles game. Woo hoo! 24 to 0! 2 shut out games in a row and we play the Eagles again next week in the play offs!

Well, I am off to make fajitas for dinner! I am going to make some homemade bread and rolls tonight too for school lunches tomorrow.
Then, we are back to our normal schedule for school nights. The party's over!
