Tons.



Two things.
1) I just asked if MS's sister could hypothetically pick me up at the airport. Now that she's all grown up and all.
2) if anyone besides Lil Red wants my address, send me a PM. Prayer requests would be fulfilled! (with prayer -- I'm not God).

First year black veil! Sounds like she's in karate or something.

What do you have to buy to join the DSMME?

[Deus te Amat]

I'm not joining the DSMME -- Lisa is. I'm entering the ND's.

[ToJesusMyHeart]

If you're not opposed to posting your list(s) (+Lisa), I'm sure we'd all be interested!!

Or maybe you already did and I just missed it. But either way, YAY RELIGIOUS LIFE!!!!

Anyone know the best way to seW name tags into socks?

[Tally Marx]

Wow! Eight days! Congrats, DTA!

I don't know about sewing a tag on. Perhaps you can write your name on a rectangle of cloth and, with a needle and thread, hand-stitch the short edges to the inside of the band of the sock? ...If it were me and, were I permitted, I would just embroider my name into them.

[MessorCarus]

I'm so excited for you!

In the Corps we stamped our names on our socks... and hats, and shirts, and skivvies, and belts, and undershirts, and shirts, and trousers, and ties, and coats, and...


we had name tapes on our utility blouses and trousers though.

none of this is helpful to you, I know, but I couldn't let you leave with posting on here.

My mom used to put labels on our family friend's clothing before she passed away because the nursing home was always losing stuff. She went to Walmart or Joann's and bought some no-sew clothing labels that you iron on. You can get a permanent clothing marker and write your initials instead of sewing individual tags. It's much easier and they stay on very well.
