I'm sure you will do better.<BR/><BR/>I showed Gary your bags of clothing & told him you had cleaned out closets. He said, "Oh, she's making room for more fabric, huh?" I tried to explain your fabric diet, but he didn't buy it.<BR/><BR/>VindaVindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17474951567953498682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5109774646057111207.post-51893904085092164462008-01-09T05:56:00.000-08:002008-01-09T05:56:00.000-08:00Oooo a perfect little storage area!
