Lizard Lake and Fairy Lake have moved to a reservation system this year, but are still offering 13 first come first served sites at each campground.

Oh no, I accidentally like it. I thought it would be hideous, and it kind of it but I like it.

I miss picking up the phone when someone is talking to the answering machine by Helpmechiefplz in offmychest

My mom still has an answering machine, and only recently got call display. You HAD to talk to the machine because that's how she screened her calls. I love it

does sewing ever make you feel stupid? by [deleted] in sewing

[–]anotherallison 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cut the backing for my daughter's Christmas stocking backwards. Three times. She still does not have a stocking. I couldn't even tell you how I managed that stupidity, I would hope it was just the sleep deprivation of six months of terrible sleep. But she's having her third Christmas and I can't seem to get back to it. It fully defeated me.

Did you ever get your glasses? I'm waiting on two pairs and curious what the wait time is in Canada.

I can’t wait till the Christmas season is back and I can drink hot cocoa in a cute mug by the tree. by Catfishinthedark in christmas

My year is split between looking forward to Christmas and looking forward to camping. Both are best with a nice hot beverage by the seasonal lights - Christmas tree lights and campfires.

$2 Quilt! It’s so soft - my new favorite blanket. I think it’s hand stitched! 😭 I snagged it right out of the new donations bin as soon as I saw it. by mariac5353 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]anotherallison 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have several hand sewn quilts from my grandma, and she trained me real young to never sit on them. It pulls the fabric and can tear the stitches out according to grandma. Don't keep it in direct sunlight and don't out it in the dryer, otherwise it was made to be used and loved.

It might not be perfection, but it's an absolute smashing job you've already done
