January comes to an end.....................

January comes to an end.................well, that is OK........it has been a VERY cold January here.
I am tired of this really cold stuff.  (insert UFFDA here).


Last Thursday, Jan. 23 I had gall bladder surgery.  Got there at 5:45am and was home by 1:00pm.  Everything went fine and quick !  They just run you right through.  Everyone there was VERY nice and I was well taken care of.  I slept most of Thursday and Friday and then felt pretty darn good.


I went back to work yesterday and did OK.  I will get caught up on my naps over the weekend.


I suppose everyone except ME will be watching the Superbowl Game....... I am just NOT a football fan or any kind.  I will do some sewing and take a nap.


Jeff has his first listing ! Yeah !!!  He has been showing it and hoping for a buyer very soon.  There are not many houses for sale here in the area......so the ones that are for sale.......are quick to go.


I better get the hounds in...........too darn cold out there.


One of these days I will take some pictures to add here !!!
Stay Warm !

January 11.......

January is just flying by......... I have one finished project to show......

This is a purse that I made for a store sample.  We will be having a "Bag Lady Breakfast" and show off all our fun purses.  We will also be teaching classes on all the purses.

We have come out of the deep freeze .....for now.....who knows what will come.  It was so sloppy and messy the last couple days, but it freezes at night.....and then the roads and streets get slick.  Just can't totally win !

Guess I better let the hounds out now after they have had their breakfast.
Have a great weekend !

Happy New Year !

So begins another year................ Rollie was looking out the window......don't you just wonder what they think about ?.......Is he wishing for warm sunny days.......or planning on hunting something in the back yard .......waiting for the dog next door to come out ?...... And it is just plain funny him sitting on the arm of the chair. 

 

Happy New Year !!!   What are your plans for the new year?.........each year I vow to make the year better, do more, get more organized......and a hundred other things. 

I will try to live each day to the fullest and enjoy my day no matter what I do.....or don't do.....I will be grateful for each day I wake up and have the opportunity to enjoy another day.

 

 

 

Brrrrrrrr the cold and snow !!  This morning....it was -24 degrees when I woke up...... now at 1pm it is warmed up to a balmy -17.  BUT the sun is shining and there is not much wind.  LOL......so.......could be worse.  Sounds like the east is going to get a snowstorm starting tonight. 

So.......there will be lots of new "firsts" for us this year.........my husband starting a new career......
(Be sure and let us know if you need to buy or sell a house !! )  I will continue to work at my job.....staying busy is not a problem there...... There is just not enough hours in the day to do what I want to do.  January 23 I will be having gall bladder surgery.....I think I am out of removable parts now.  That is not the way I wanted to start the new year.......but the Dr. thinks it is best that we take it out and eliminate any more problems.
Working in earnest in downsizing........... I think you spend the first 50 years of your life collecting stuff.....and the next 50 years getting rid of it.  It is very hard for me to let go of "stuff"......but I come by it naturally......my grandmother and my mothers were savers....."because you might need it someday"....well.....someday is here.....and I haven't used it yet !!  So.......Peter Walsh - wherever you are ..............HELP !!!!.......
Wish me luck !! I will keep you posted........
There now that I have publicly spoken about it....maybe I will have better success with this project.  LOL

I better get my hounds in before they freeze................
Please let me know how your January is going.

Stay Warm !
