Lannis: Sanity in small squares

You know what has saved my melty brain this week?

This square:


(Yes. Everyone marvel at my inability to figure out how to draw a circle in Picasa—I still am.)

I sewed that square. Now the boys can no longer pull the ties out of their housecoats in order to strangle each other lose them, and it means a world of difference in the Lannis household.

Suddenly there’s no more whining of, “But I can’t wear my housecoat, the tie is missing!”

And with the chilly weather coming, this is a blessing. I caved and turned on the heat last night, because my kidlets were chilling in their PJs. Literally.

Occasional poster at The Mrs, I'm Lannis - or Leslie, depending on which circles you're swimming. A while ago I decided that I don't care anymore, hence my general standards for life are lower than The Mrs' (but she still loves me.) [Editor: I do]

I live in a small town with my favourite people: my husband, Mr Lannis, and our two boys, along with two cats and one hamster.

If you follow me on Twitter, you might witness my issues with linear thought, road rage, spending more money on food than books, and potty mouth. Be warned.
