YAY For Great Mail Days!

-
This was before the blizzard of 09.Ü.I have just been all twitterpated with it and forgot to post my goodies!


I participated in an online auction a couple of weeks ago and won these beautiful items! First is an ADORABLE quilt by Carol. I dont know her blog. This quilt though is so blasted cute. I want to keep it but I have the perfect little one in mind for it. WH has an employee that we were pretty close to that just had a little guy.
So if I can bare to part with it I will send it to them. Beautiful job Carol!

Second I won this Peppermint Patty. I LOVE her and she is mine mine mine!. I cant find at the moment the card that came with her. I had it last week but this week I cant find it. Argh. So as soon as I find it I will give proper credit. She is awesome though and fills a void from my childhood. I had a beloved raggedy ann that was lost in a move. I have always missed her so now I have a replacement!Then to top it all off I got all this fabric and kit from a dear friend who was cleaning her stash in Alaska! Thank you Diane!!!


I actually have a Taxi kit already. Oldest begged for me to buy it for her so I did. She refuses to give it to me even though she has yet to make it. So now I have one for me! Ü
This week I have declared war on the bargello. The space that it is occupying in my brain is needed for another project. It is time for it to be done!

Need a Good Laugh?

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...

Seriously HOW do yall deal with these things? I have gotten past the urge to run screaming at every worm. But those send me flying everytime! Then I feel them crawling on me for hours! Any helpful hints? This was the beginnings of our garden. We have used up all the available space now and are looking for another safe place to plant away from the deer. Doesnt look like much remember we are beginners!Lol. WH and little A left for Alaska for two weeks. Before he left I had to get three customer quilts done for him to take back. Of course I left it for last minute. So I was running around acting like a crazy woman trying to get caught up.Lol. Now though I feel a huge sigh of relief. For the next two weeks I am doing WHATEVER I want! hehehe.
