How the Challanged Mind Designs


  1. See something really wasteful
  2. Complain endlessly about it until no one wants to be near you
  3. Continue whining on your blog where no one can really shut you up
  4. Get 4 glorious minutes alone to create a thought…yes you are probably peeing at the time
  5. Sketch the perfect design
  6. Misplace perfect design
  7. Create decent, but not perfect design
  8. Choose and order the perfect material
  9. Get notified that said perfect material is out of stock
  10. Wait 3 months for restocking
  11. Receive notice that perfect material has been discontinued
  12. Pick new “perfect” material at 2x the price
  13. Create pattern
  14. Chase toddlers around for 45 minutes trying to retrieve pattern
  15. Catch toddlers and retrieve pattern
  16. Chase toddlers for measuring tape
  17. Console toddlers for stealing “the magic lasso” and make amends by playing magic burrito for 45 minutes
  18. Cut fabric incorrectly
  19. Cut fabric correctly
  20. Sew sample
  21. Chase toddlers who are now wearing samples
  22. Convince toddlers to play hide and seek
  23. Cut a new sample minus jelly stains while said toddlers are hiding
  24. Take 437 bad photos and 1 okay photo of sample
  25. List sample…

Oh…eventually find toddlers.

    “Yes, you are probably peeing at the time.” How true!

    You make me laugh. It’s awesome.

    Burrito Boy
    What can I say? My kids like to be rolled up in giant tortillas/blankets. Who doesn’t? It’s cheap and keeps them in one spot for 35 seconds. They also like me to pretend I’m pouring hot sauce on them. Weird? Yes. But they’re definitely mine.
