The Crazy Lady Is Back

Image
NOTE to my children. When your mother is already on the border of looneyville it is NOT a good idea to push her past it! Like super gluing door nobs, rubber banding the kitchen sprayer, short sheeting the bed or putting funny things in her shoes! And just remember my son, in less then 30 days you will be standing in the DMV praying. I can and most likely will be showing off naked bath tub photos of a 2 year old rosy cheeked little man and wailing and crying that my baby has grown up too fast! We can call a truce or this can get ugly! NOW onto more important things. Here is turtle beach. My March UFO. I LOVE this quilt. So fun cheerful and all fabrics that were hand picked by my kids in Hawaii. The backing was hand dyed by the mahvelous Vicki. I quilted a freehand wave and I am totally in love with this quilt. We have already snuggled and napped together today!

In my head wont let me sleep.So here I am. Surfing the internet and putting the final stitches in my March UFO, Turtle Beach. I will have pictures to show of it and the beautiful hand dyed backing Vicki made tomorrow. For now I am cramming. Reminds me of my school days. I always did my homework an hour before it was due. Lol I still need to put a label on it but I am calling it done with the binding. Some itiot packed ALL my pigma markers and cant remember which box. Crazy lady. I am NOT putting on another picture of Mount redoubt even though she obviously doesnt feel she has gotten enough media attention. She blew again today at 4. I have been all irritated like at UPS because my box from banana republic is like 4 days late. Thinking oh great now I have ticked off them too! But the day was saved when on the news tonight they announced that DUH planes arent flying in.Do they know that I NEED that new skirt and sweater? I mean come on, I have important places to wear it.Like Gracie Ho...

What a Difference a Day Makes!

Yesterday we signed with a realtor. Its all in her hands now. What a relief I feel! I cant belive the amount of stress that just lifted off. We still have work to do but I am not feeling the pressure get to this point anymore. Monday morning will see a sign and flyer box in our yard and now I have to keep the house spotless. She told us that its a really hot time right now so we will see.Ü Today I went and ordered my car! Yippie! It was so much fun to pick out everything. They even gave me a picture of what it will look like when it is done. Do you want to see it? Hahahahahaha. I couldnt resist! Its not really my car.Lol. I did get the Buick Enclave. There is a very good chance it wont be here when we leave. But because wonderful hubby will still be going back and forth for awhile he will just bring it out with him after it gets here. We could of had it delivered out there but that presented a problem too. The would want us to fly out and do all the paperwork and thats not really a vi...

Thank you for this awesome award! It means more because it comes from great friends! So I guess its now time to list 5 addictions and then pass it on. 1. Coffee nice strong very strong coffee. 2. Quilting in every form. I love it all. 3. The internet. there is so much to see and learn. I have to be very strict with my time because I could sit here for hours. 4.Sea Turtles. I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv them. I actually love all turtles but they are my favorite. They are so graceful and beautiful. My children decided a few years ago to count how many I have but decided to stop at 200 and not continue. 5. My family and friends. They get me though every day. Ok those are not in order of importance obviously. I also am going to cheat here as everyone I would give the award to is on my sidebar! I cant pick just five this time. My little brain cant handle the stress.Lol.Ü.So if you read this blog please pick up the award and know that I am truly happy you are here!

Thursday happenings

This is the movie we chose to watch last night. We didnt quite watch all of it as we all 3 had a lot of whining to do. We have a rule.We can whine and complain all we want.It ALL stays in that room or in Seinfeld language gets vaulted. Its all about the hugs and comfort of good friends. I cant tell you how wonderful I felt at the end of the night. A much much needed break. On the movie though, hmmmm it was interesting. One I am glad I rented once but will not buy. It was good but different. I absolutely love both Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. Well Hugh is just a hunk of burning man love.yuuuuuuuuum. And he does have a couple OMG shirt off moments.Whoooooo Baby! He just wasnt in enough scenes though. Its story line was interesting but odd. Anyways it was a good one to watch once. Next Martini night we have already decided on a movie. We found out that one of us (not me) has not seen Man From Snowy River. Honestly I didnt think that was possible. I own my own copy and it is like the t...

I am running away from home

I have decided its time again. So tonight I am grabbing a bottle of champagne and a good movie and running over to one of my martini buddies house.I am on the lookout for a good movie though.Any ideas? We are looking for a good chic flick, and we dont mind shedding a tear or two. Tonight the carpet guy is coming to finish the Vinyl. Then the realtor is supposed to come over and take pictures. I am leaving it ALL in wonderful hubbies hands. When I told him this last night he looked somewhat panic stricken. Oh well. As my skater boy son would say, Sucks to be you!...........Did I tell you I was cranky? Lol. It is getting better I swear. I think this is the final week of intense house work. Then it is all little stuff and me just keeping it all clean. I am even putting my sewing room back together today. My tile step isnt done yet but too bad. I need some "real" fiber content and I need to get my sanity back.Isnt it stupid that the only time your house is really the way you wan...
