Vanity, they name is woman

Oh dear! They just ruined a new set of sheets. I have been pricing nice high thread count sheets for a while, and I finally splurged on a set. The two collie girls ran upstairs chasing each other. No surprises there. They could be heard jumping on my bed. Again, nothing new. Then I heard growling, then a horrible RIPPP!



I went upstairs to see two very guilty little faces, each holding one half of a formerly luxurious sheet. I guess I had that one coming for coveting sheets like those. But, I can't remember why I thought that ferrets would be a bad idea...

Queen. And I can make lots of cleaning rags. or something. And I also can't spell, since I mistyped the title of this.

Um, I don't have ferrets. The collie girls were the ones who ripped the new sheets. Right straight down the middle of the flat sheet. At the time I found my new sheets, though, ferrets seemed like a darn fine idea.

Why can't you just sew the two pieces back together? Especially if it's the flat sheet.

But wouldn't it make an uncomfortable bump? It might be worth a try, though. and I still have the fitted sheet, we use more of those in the winter.

Re Vanity, they name is woman

Use a french seam like on jeans. And I wouldn't think you'd really notice much on a flat sheet.

Especially once you're asleep.

I was here and I had a hard time understanding, and I was even wearing my glasses. This morning, though, when they came running in and jumped in bed with me, they both sat down. At once. It really was remarkable.

You might want to rethink that, since I can't remember what you said.

I had posted something about the sheets at Amazon, but then decided it might be a good idea to share with anybody else who might be foolish enough to avoid your adventures.
