"You are Too Smart to Be Bored"

As I was laying in bed, lamenting the recent extraction of my wisdom teeth and nursing the bruises on my cheeks, I fell prey to boredom. The words of my Grandmama reminded me that "I am too smart to be bored." Maybe I was bored because I had lost my wisdom teeth. All that was left of my "smart" was four holes in my gums and an achy jaw. Throwing off the fear that I would forever be dumb and bored, I grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil and began to draw. I drew a few sketches of some dresses I wanted to make. The day before, I had found (and much to my delight) some lovely fabric on sale at Walmart for 49 cents a yard! That, my friends, is a steal. So, I began making plans for the bright futures of these fabrics. After a few hours of measuring, cutting, trimming, pinning, hemming, cutting again, re-measuring, re-fitting, and ruffling....

Ta-da! A sweet little sundress that is perfect for the beach! All I need to make this outfit complete is a trip to the beach...

And, if I so choose, I can add this sash with the cute little ribbon! And so, despite the loss of my wisdom via the extraction of my wisdom teeth, I proved to my Grandmama that I am still too smart to be bored!
