My New Apron

-
First off I need to appologise for the quality of these pictures. I had to sneak into my own room tonight while the men folk made a trip to manland. They dont want me in there as they are finishing up the tile and I may accidently step on a tile that I have told NOT to step on like a gazillion times. Ü

Second THANK YOU Madelyn! This is my box of goodies and apron from Shawnees October Breast Cancer awareness apron swap. To say that I was bowled over by what I got is an understatement. Quite a bit of material, Mary Ellens best press (I had JUST ran out), pink ribbon straight pins (LOVE these), a cute must do purse pattern, DOVE chocolate ( Yuuuuuuuuuum), and the cutest little stuffed pink ribbon. I wish mabel were not under a sheet right now sho that I could take a picture and show just how beautiful this apron really is. You will have to take my word for it though as I was trying to be very quick so I didnt get busted.
reversable!!!


With a matching potholder! I have exactly 2 potholders right now as I am not going to go digging through boxes to find more. So this was exciting to find in the box!
What a wonderful swap this was! I sent off my apron but had to buy it off of ETSY as I didnt schedule very well and didnt want my partner to have to wait until I am allowed back into my room. Her goodies will go out tomorrow though and then I will put together a matching basket to give away to someone in my area who has or is battling BC. I already know who just need to get it together.
Rumor has it that I may get to sneak into my room tomorrow. I threw a little fit today and decided that WH should NOT get to store his clothes in the laundry room.So they all went into the bathroom with mine and now the bathtub is piled so high you really cant find anything.Lol. Amazingly the trim started going up in the closet and plans to put the shelves in have been bantered around. Be still my heart! I think the menfolk are starting to see me unravel a little and they are throwing me bones. Bones are ok in my book. Ü Especially if it means I get my space back!

I did today. Then just as I was about to scream I found this. It has ALWAYS made me laugh.I had forgotten I had it though.So today it was just like a present.Ü Oldest daughter has been confined to the house with what her doctor tells us is a very contagious viral infection. Personally I think her doctor is smoking some funny stuff. Her blood tests were normal and she has been battling bad tonsils for a month.Hmmmm. I dont think it takes rocket science when that is ALL she went in there for but evidently it does. More tests have been ordered and she is confined until monday. Can you say lets drive mom crazy? Then I found out a king size ALL feathered quilt that I mailed to a friend as a belated (like 20 years late)wedding, anniversary,housewarming(twice),congratulations on your 4 kids, yeah dont hate me because I am a horrible friend quilt NEVER showed up in the mail! I cannot find (big shocker there huh)the tracking slip. I did have it at one time in my hot little hands. So I know it w...

I bet yall thought I had forgotten to do a giveaway for my second blogaversary! I almost did I will be honest. Thankfully I remembered before the end of Feb!.....I also have some help Ü. A week or so back I got an email from Jamie who is part of the CSN promotion team asking if I would like to give away a gift to one lucky reader!!! WELL YA! I jumped on it. I had so much fun picking out a gift to give. They have some wonderful products. It took me almost a whole week to comb through their stores to find just the right gift! They have 200+ stores!
