My Hair Has Me All Ferklempt...


I just broke the super sharp upper slicing blade off my serger.

Stupid pin. Yup, I forgot about a hidden pin and let it go through the serger. Not a good plan.

The upper chunk of the blade flew off into a pile of unrolled yellow ribbon on my sewing counter with the sound of Julie Andrews singing supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in the background. Do I need to wear safety goggles when sewing? Maybe.

Been searching online for an inexpensively priced blade replacement. Bah!

I'm feeling a little off today. I think I know why. I'm wearing my hair in a side messy bun and I think my brain's confused. Too much pressure and tension on one side of the head has my neurons misfiring and synapses all askew.

I think I'd better switch sides half way through the day. I wouldn't want to start walking sideways or anything.

That's it. The messy side bun has me all ferklempt today.

Yup, I'm blaming it on my hair.

Told ya I was ferklempt...

  1. You and your cute hair need to get yourself down for a visit, that's what I think! That and I think "ferklept" is a made up word. What are the points for? Hit 5,000 and you get a free headband? Hit 10,000 and I get to go on vacation with you? ;) Just a thought!

  2. Love that Craig Morgan song, but don't know all the words. Too bad, otherwise I could have scored big time!! ;) (can you tell I was hoping the points would qualify me for my own re-upholstered chair complete with fabric of my choice??) Hope everything is back in order tomorrow!

  5. "Overwhelmed" ?? Never used it, but when I find out what it really means I'll add it to my mental dictionary (whatever that is worth?)
