Skirt Update and Chatter

I've hit about 6 inches on the length of the skirt. I'd be close to the first set of decreases if I weren't adding a touch more length. I'll admit I'm short…well vertically challenged, but I'm just not young enough to be comfortable showing that much leg anymore. So I'm thinking I'll hit 12 inches and see from there where I want to go. I'd like for the finished skirt to stop around my knees.

I'll try to post an updated photo soon.

 

Now for the chatter --- cold, rainy and very windy here today. We're still coming along on our frugal living plan. We were able to knock our mortgage down 5% last month and we'll be adding the same dollar amount this month. The Lord is blessing us and Lord willing we'll be mortgage free by July.

Last month we did a little more "store bought" snacking than I had hoped we would. For March I am hitting it much more aggressively. Tonight I will be grinding extra grains and I want to make up some brownies and cookie dough to stick in the freezer. I'm also reminding my guys that we have tons of popcorn. I'll also make more stove top cookies simply because they are quick and easy.

Ever since my roommate got an air popper for Christmas, I've stopped using microwave popcorn. I used to not like the air-popped stuff, but now I like it better than any other kind. Plus it's kinda fun to watch the butter melt from the hot air as the corn is popping. *chuckles*
