All is well!

Sorry I haven't posted. My surgery went really well- I was home the next day. Path results weren't great but it was just as I expected. Waiting to see the next step in the whole plan.

As for Christmas- I survived...barely. My kids were so excited to go to bed on Christmas Eve. I was very surprised because I thought I was going to have a fight on my hands. They all went to bed great. Then, a couple hours later my two oldest (Boys, 8 yrs and 10 yrs) started coming in every 15-20mins because they "couldn't sleep". UGH! I wish I could get them to understand that every time they get out of bed it sets them back and if they would just stay laying down with their eyes closed EVENTUALLY they would fall asleep. No such luck. Finally, at 2:30am my 8 yr old has a MAJOR breakdown. Screaming and crying because he knows Santa won't come until he falls asleep but he CAN'T! Wore him out and he finally fell asleep. But in the meantime woke my little 5yr old girl. ARGH! Slept with her for a while in her bed just to get her to sleep. Finally my husband woke me up at 4:30 to tell me Santa had come. And because he's a kid at heart and couldn't contain his own excitement decided to wake all the kids (even though I just BARELY got them to sleep) and have Christmas morning at 5am. We had planned on 7! Oh well. The kids were happy and it was a nice morning but I'm still re-living Christmas Eve and cringing. Ugh, NEVER AGAIN!

So, how was your Holiday?

I'm going to try and get back to my regular posting but I have a few MAJOR deadlines coming up so I'll do my best!

I'm going to release the Valentine countdown pattern soon and will list it on my Etsy as soon as I do so everyone has a chance to get it and have time to make it before Valentine's Day! :o)

Minor Setback

I'm going in for another surgery this morning. A few weeks ago the Dr's found a couple of lymphnodes of questionable nature. I opted to have them taken out rather than risk the chance of leaving them alone. And since I've been in the hospital enough this year to meet my out-of-pocket max I decided to squeeze this one in before the end of the year.

So if you don't hear from me for about a week, you know why.

I hope all of your Holiday prep is going well. Sew a little for me, will ya!? :o)

Laughter is the best medicine

We recently took family pictures and this shop was snapped without my knowledge. I LOVE IT! It is real. It is genuine. And it makes me smile when I see it. :o)

One more little change

Although I really liked the other logo and it was the crowd favorite (by a small margin) it was just too SQUARE. I know, I know, I designed it that way. And I really liked it. But, well, I like this one BETTER. ;o)

What do you think?

A Season of Giving

A few weeks ago I was contacted by a young woman and asked if I might assist in a project she was starting. As I read about this project I knew right away that I wanted to be a part of it. It's called the Children's Charity Quilt Project. Please take a moment to click on the link and read about this wonderful idea. And, if you're in the giving mood this season, please contact Tiffany with your donations.

Thank You.
