A little gun shy right now

First I want to thank everyone who is praying for Gavin, for all of you who have written notes of encouragement regarding the possible relocation, and those who have emailed & called your kindness and love these last few weeks has been the glue that held me together. Cheryl in Texas please check your email and the group board I can't reach you.

My desktop is finally up and working again and I have been able to reload my contacts/photos & music so far the last two days. I haven't completely reloaded everything and am a little gun shy to do so for fear I might have the thing crash again.


Christmas Crafts day was a much needed time to get a few items done for gifts. I don't know about you but I enjoy creating things, I enjoy giving them to my friends & family too! I finished up a gift exchange with Yvonne in Indiana and got it mailed off this morning during our Tornado Watch. I would show you a couple of the things I sent her but I don't want to spoil the surprise!

I also finished stitching the dates on the backs of the kids ornaments (I purchased at The Barn) last night but I know Brittany reads this occasionally and I don't want to spoil that surprise either. I am almost finished with a little thing I hope to have up on Etsy so I can show you that soon.

The 2nd Annual Hookers Christmas Party is this Saturday & I am so excited, I have Jonny's gift all bagged up since Thanksgiving. I have to write out the cards for the girls and maybe a little gift too.

Well back to cleaning...my husband is due home around midnight! :-)

Blessings 2 U Friends!

Someone emailed & asked about little Caylee Anthony and yes they do think they found that precious little girls body just a block or so from her Grandparents home, such a shame.

Today is Christmas Crafts Day ... YEAH

First off Gavin is holding his own, he still vomits up some of his daytime feedings and is on the NG feeding tube & pump at night. Every other day he is yanking out his tube so we have to hold him down & reinstert it.

Saturday's prim class fun we mostly shopped and talked about the 2nd Annual Hookers Christmas Party next Saturday. Susan was so sweet, she brought me a Birthday gift of Primitive Potpourri and a beeswax Belsnickle in his own wool bag.

Helen gave me two pieces of Monks Cloth to draw out another "Blue Moon" for the shop and any other pattern I choose....any thoughts ladies & gents?

Saturday afternoon/night was babysitting Gavin time and my dh left Sunday before dawn to head to Microsoft in Seattle for a few days then to Chicago. I think they are finishing his Microsoft brainwashing. :-) We packed as many Christmas gifts as we could in his suitcase for my bff Cheri & Denise along with some things for Rachies birthday. On the way home from church I received a text message that he forgot to pack his dress shoes since there was no room after the gifts. :-) Sorry hun!

Yesterday we spent the day watching all the taped episodes of "Whatever Martha" and just laughed the entire afternoon. Alexis & Jennifer are a stitch!
Check them out on the Fine Living Network
Today we are going to get some of our Christmas Crafts done that have been piling up so tomorrow I may have some photos to post of the fun. Southern Snowballs, Vintage Tin Tiles, Gavin's Christmas Present, Snowball Bath Salts are just a few of the things on the list for today.

Blessings 2 U Friends
