OMG!!!

OMG!!! I feel like I'm running a race but the gun went off and I didn't hear it...now I'm a lap behind! It's for a very good reason though...my daughter got ENGAGED on Saturday!!! Pictures to come! Not only did she get engaged but the wedding is in 7-8 months depending on when/where we can get a reception site. So OMG I'm already behind on this one! Everything needs to get worked on ASAP! I have lots of crafty plans in my head for the engagement party, shower and wedding. Pictures to come with the progress!

I'll be back soon I hope to keep you updated and to show you pictures!

Hugs!

Snippets of Christmas

Morning! I am sloooowly getting better and sloooowly pulling things out of Christmas boxes and decorating. I went to the doctor yesterday and I have bronchitis which is sticking around because my thyroid levels are so low that I'm having a hard time fighting it off. Sooo...this year I am not decorating as much as in years past, I just don't have the energy right now. I'd, also, like to thank everyone for their prayers and concern...you are the bestest!

Here are some snippets of what I have done...

A gift from my daughter, her boyfriend and my hubby last year. I LOVE it!

A little berry tree in the dining room.

From the tree in the family room.

We brought a little Mickey Christmas home with us.

Sparkly Santa, he makes me smile.

Today, I will decorate the last tree and try to put away some of the boxes. Tomorrow, I hope to bake some cookies for hubby's work party. I hope you're having a great time getting ready for Christmas!

Hugs!!!

Just Plain Sick

Just plain sick and tired of being sick and tired. Hope to be back sooner rather than later with a good update but tomorrow I plan to visit the doctor. Ugh! This just isn't the season to be sick and tired of being sick and tired!

Hope you all are having a great time getting ready for the holidays!

Hugs!

Hello From Chicago

Hello! I am at our apartment just outside of Chicago for the Thanksgiving week. Hubby and I have been horribly sick, with an upper respiratory virus, ever since we came home from Disney World. All I can say is yuck and we just don't feel well.

So, all my crafty plans for last week...didn't happen. Sigh! I have paper and rubber stamps piled up on the kitchen table, back home, awaiting me to create Christmas cards...next week. So, yeah...I'm a week behind during the busiest time of the year. Oh well. What gets done gets done.

While I'm here in Chicago, I brought this project with me. I really want to finish it before it gets to be too late to wear it! It is a lot of work! All the hand embroidery is taking me FOREVER! So, that's one of my goals this week...get as much of this scarf done as possible.

Sorry, no pictures. I don't have the means on this old computer here in the apartment. Have a great week and WONDERFUL Thanksgiving! So much to be thankful for!

Hugs!

I Saw A Mouse!!!

Yep, I saw a mouse...Mickey Mouse!!! We took a much needed vacation after a most stressful year! (I try to keep all the stress out of my blog but yes it has been a horrible year at our house!) Mickey took the stress away! :-D I LOVE the parade at Magic Kingdom!!!

Mickey!!!

~~~~~

While we were there, Disney World started to celebrate their new princess movie...The Princess and the Frog...WOW what a great celebration on the riverboat! They put on an amazing New Orleans style show! We loved it, especially my dad!

Here she is Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen. The cast of the riverboat show all danced off the boat and down the streets of Magic Kingdom. It was awesome!

~~~~~

So I have had a long time away from crafting and I need to make a list to get things done by Christmas! I think I can, I think I can...LOL!

Hope you all are Celebrating Today! (That's what Disney says to do, so I am trying! Praying for less stress in the coming year!)

Have a great day!

Hugs!

I'm taking a blogging break to get my thoughts in order. I have way too many ideas swimming in my head and a lot of unfinished projects like my wool floral scarf waiting for me. All that and Christmas will soon be here which means Christmas cards to make!

Have a great week and I'll be around in about a week or so! Hope you won't forget me!
