Progress

Well it's been a long day or two. Things with the homemaking are going okay. Not super great, but okay. Which is fine for me. Becoming a Homemaker is something that you can't do just over a night or two. It takes time. I have been getting the dishes done and the kitchen swept at the very least every day. I am making some decent progress on my apron as well. Plus my daughter wanted me to make one for her too. So I am actually making 2 aprons at the moment. It's amaizing what you can do with the fabric of old clothing. That's what I am using to make the aprons. I am using parts from old clothes that don't fit us anymore and fabric from a comforter that fell apart. They're not perfect, but I think they're turning out well considering I am a beginner at sewing and I don't have a sewing machine, so this is all being done by hand. My husband has been a little better the last day or so. He is a little less distant than he has been. I like it that he is getting better too. I hope he continues on the track he is on. Today will be interesting. I am going to try and make a chicken in a crockpot. We have a couple of frozen chickens in the freezer that my father-in-law gave to us. So I am going to try and cook one in the crockpot today. I found a recipe that I am hoping goes well. With something like this I don't want to go all free style with still learning to cook. I don't want to make my family sick and I don't really want to completely mess up a whole chicken. But as of right now things are going okay. I am hoping that they continue to improve. Both my skills and everyone's mood as well.
