he whose sole is flat

...this slipper is has got holes in her soul and I don't know where they come from. it's like one day you wake up and someone has drained the energy from your body...you think it will come back but you just drag yourself around and wonder what you did that caused the -sky to cave in on you by and by.

...the stitch worked but I don't know if it is practical yet...I started another project and if I can breath my soul back into me I intend to start another one tonight...I will think scarlet thoughts and overcome inertia wish me luck.

Silver Threads and Golden Needles

I'm desparate to get home because at work today I suddennly realized I could turn my favorite border/doodle into a embroidery border. I looked and looked and if it works I think I may have invented a new stitch! Gold star to Scarlet! If it works I'll try to learn how to post a picture on this thing and show you.

I'm calling it Heart Sich which makes me think of Heart Sick and Stitch all at the same time...right now I'd give away just about anything to be near my regular threads and tarnished needles but alas it is not so...what kind of woman am I that I don't have a sewing kit with me. Sorry I have to go now I can't bear the shame.

come in stranger

Come in Stranger - Johnny Cash

She said come in stranger
It's good to have you home
I hurried thru 'cause I knew it was you
When I saw your dog, waggin' his tail
Honey, why didn't you let me know by mail
You've been gone so long

She said come in stranger
I know you're weary from all your miles
Just sit right there in your easy chair
And tell me all about the places you've been
How long it'll be before you leave again
I hope it's a long, long while

She said come in stranger
Everything 'round home is fine
I've watched and I've waited for you to get back
And I missed you all the time

She said come in, stranger
Oh how I need you when you're gone
I walk the floor and I watch the door
And when I lie awake and wonder where you can be
I'd give anything to have you here with me
I get so lonesome all alone

She said come in, stranger
And won't you listen to my plea
Stay long enough, so that the one I love
Is not a stranger to me
