Remember when.... your Mother told you...the older you get, the faster time passes by...and now you know how right she really was?? So..it all boils down to the fact...that I'm dashing through my life...with so much yarn yet to use and unfinshed projects. It's time to enjoy the finer things in life...my hubby, cats and dog...a phone call from my kids, a good cup of "joe" and my hooks and needles.
Just 13 days until the "BIG DAY"!! Are you ready?? Don't ask...the answer is "NO"!! But I'll get there! My cards are done, and most of them in the mail...a few gifts have been wrapped. I have one thing in my favor...I won't be having Christmas with my family until mid-January. That, believe me, is a life savor!!! I really have nothing else to purchase...I pick things up through-out the year. (I already have a few things stuck away for next Christmas.) But...I do have some crocheting and sewing to complete... Here's a hat I just completed...another tam!! Made with Caron Simple Soft "Party"--color is Spring Green". It has a little "bling" woven through-out the yarn....a strand of "shiny" thread that dresses it up a bit!Cute, don't ya think??
Better get it listed in my store!! So with that...a word of wisdom for the day...DON'T LET THE HOLIDAYS STRESS YOU OUT!!!! :) Agree??? Until next time......
Not much new here...I have had the last 2 days off...and the only thing I have accomplished to get ready for the holidays, is hang John's Betty Boop towel in the bathroom. He just loves that girl!! I'll share a picture of her the next time...if I remember. Yes...it's "tacky"...but if that's all it takes to keep him happy, then I'm happy, right?? Took Oggie Dog to the vet this afternoon...to have his stitches out. A quick and easy trip. I'm glad we went earlier..as there is a freezing rain warning in effect for the area. It's snowing and blowing out there now!! No...I'm NOT a winter person...but it comes and goes regardless... Here's a hat I just finished. It's another grey one....very pretty....and a tam. If it doesn't sell, I might keep it for myself. Good neutral color...will go with just about anything I own.
Hot dogs and beans for dinner. I LOVE hot dogs with fried onions!!!! A gourmet meal. Healthier this time around....using chicken hot dogs and they ARE tasty. We had a "fancy" dinner last night...roast beef, potatoes and carrots....so tonight we'll "splurge" and eat something fun! Until next time.....
Where is the time flying to?? So much to do...so little time. Yes, I AM a procrastinator and this year is worse than usual. Christmas will come and Christmas will go...just like any other day.... Here's a hat I finished...grey goes with just about anything. It's in my eBay store...along with a few other hats and scarves...http://stores.ebay.ca/debeeedosnewtoyoushop --- go have a peek!!
Nothing planned for the week YET...my new boss just can't seem to get a routine set up. He really needs to understand that WE have a life OUTSIDE of that damn restaurant. I really do hope he gives me a lay-off. We shall see. Better get ready for work..hope all is well in your neck of the woods!!! More to share next time!!!!
Come and join me for some idol "chit chat"...I'm a crafter...with far too many interests. I'm a pet lover...a gardener...and occassional try my hand at photography. Come share my daily adventures and my love for crafts.. while I run through life with hooks and needles---and way too much yarn!!
