This will be Quick.......

Famous last words!
I'm leaving tomorrow to visit my boy, so wanted to let you know!
I worked all weekend on the baby gift for one of my bosses.......
don't worry, pretty sure he doesn't know about the blog!

Vanessa was here for a couple sleepovers and was impressed.
I said, "If I see a picture of that on Facebook before I get it to that baby; you might get a licken!"

 

Sorry about the pic on the messy desk (can you tell I'm working on a House Mouse!?)

It turned out better than the one on the table.

The next one's a little dark, but the rest all had a glare!

I used DP, quilling, buttons, stickers, foam, bling, you name it, it's on there!

And those mittens....I didn't know what to do with the string,

so there it hangs!

 

Just have to fill the boxes now!

 

Here's a chipmunk in a tree, being really still & quiet so I don't see him!

 

Sunset, and I'll have you know all the snow I whined about, melted!

I. KNOW! WTH!

It was tropical for a couple days early this week!

 

My suitcase for the trip!

Pretty sure Kalen hasn't been reading the blog either!

 

Vanessa & I weighed it Tuesday night;

 it weighed 36.4 lbs. and that's without my clothes in there!

It's stuff he bid on;

and I paid for from the Silent Auction at the Family Rebellion in August.

I'm taking him 3 containers of honey, cause they gave me a case at work.

His sister gave me his Christmas present to leave there.

I might or might not have his Christmas gift in there too!

The bear is one he was bidding on at the Silent Auction;

 my aunt won it with her bid, then told me to take it to him, cause she had so much fun!

 

So I'm off, I'll be back next week!

Hope all you peeps on the East Coast are staying warm & safe.

 

Stay out of trouble!

Talk to ya later!

Ta ta for now!

I don't know what to tell you!

Fall is here, and that puts me in panic mode!
Summer's too short for everything I want to get done!
Work's been busy....only the POTD (hahaha/thanks Myrna), seems to stay the same!
I've been going early to make up for having to come home & have a nap after my surgery!
I'm ahead of the game now, but it won't last, cause I work the casino next month, and drive the handi van again at the end of October, beginning of November!
The refinishing of the wood adirondack chairs by the fire pit are now next years project!
Window washing needs to commence sometime in the next few weeks!
Everything needs to come out of the garden, including the potatoes!
I need a piece of wood, yeah I even measured it out, to modify one of my storage pieces in my craft room, and it'll have to be done on the deck, cause it might get messy with the painting, and screwing in.....but I'll gitter done!

I DID book my flight to see my boy in beautiful British Columbia in November, and if I'm really good, will be going to Phoenix, Arizona for a wedding in March!

On the list for today is SALSA!
And maybe putting the lawn mower in the shed, and getting the snow blower out (shudder!)!
I need to fix my BIG bird feeder too!

Yesterday I baked muffins using some of the cherries I strained out of the Cherry Brandy I'm making.......YUMMO!
I vacumed, did laundry, split wood, and pumped out the sewer forpetessake!
Ray better fix that this morning before he goes to work!
Think the pump fell off its bricks, or tipped over or something!

I HAVE been crafty when I have a minute....just not card making or scrapbooking!
I DID need 4 cards when I came home from holidays,  just dug them out of the stash!
I'll have you know I didn't even go to a craft store on my holidays, OR when I went to GP a week & a half ago!
HONESTLY......there is NOTHING I NEED!
Now having said that, I WILL be ordering some SU stuff by Friday........that's when the demonstrator places an order! It's always fun, she takes the orders, then draws for the Hostess stuff etc.!

There are some challenges I want to do this month though....we'll see what happens!
I have been reading blogs & stuff, and DID find this card I want to try!
I've been knitting funky scarves.........all the gf's are getting one for Christsmas.....
I'm not worried, they don't hang out here! (I'm on scarf # 7)

I DID find a card I made before I left on holidays and didn't show you!
Just a Thinking of You!

 

Hahaha, those pearls look like eyeballs,

 I assure you they are stolen out of the Halloween stash, and are BLACK!

 

 Better carry on here, and get started on something!

Hope you're all well!

 

Talk to ya later!

Ta ta for now!
