Good morning world!!  It's not a very good day, but hey...I'm breathing!

12 days until my birthday....again lol  I got a brand new early BD prezzie too. A new Kitchenaid Stand mixer! It goes with the Kitchenaid food processor I had just bought with my casino winings LOL
So I guess today I will try it out by making a cake and possibly some bread! This machine should ease off
some of the pain in my hands, seeing as I won't be doing it all manually.  woot woot!!

I still sell SCENTSY. They have some great new smells out this season! Take a look thro my online catalog and discover for yourself what tempting smells await you!

I am also into StampinUp. Lots of cool things to do now!

Halloween is upon us very soon. Not my favorite time of year either. I prefer the Christmas season.

Scentsy Party

Well my very first Scentsy party was a success! Fun was had by all.
So, in light of that I will be hosting another party in the next few days.
Stay tuned for more......

Happy 2012

Gosh it doesn't seem like it's been this long since I last posted. Lots of things going on.
The most important to me right now is my NEW Scentsy venture. I am selling Scentsy wickless candles. They are awesome. Many many lovely burners available and scents are endless.
Please take the time to look at my webpage, and feel free to order anything you like.

It's that time of year again....

Well here we are in December again....Boy am I lousy at keeping up my blog! I have a thing about typing and letters. They go hand in hand, and I don't particularily like to do either.

I certainly hope ev1 is doing well. This is a bleak year for us here. Saving and skimping, skimping, and skimping some more. It's a pretty meager time of year this year. Ah well...next year will be better.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a joyous New Year!!

Holiday Season

Well Christmas has come and gone, once again. I hope you all got what you wished for and more.
I know that now all the hustle and bustle is over it's almost back to normal again! Phew! I made it another year! I am wishing you all a prospous New Year and may it be all and more.

I see I am not to good at posting on here. I have ahad a very busy and stressful few months since May. My father in law had been ill since May and I had been going to his home to make sure he ate and had everything he needed. Took him to the Dr and shopping and all that sort of stuff. But unfortunatly, little did we all know he had not much more time left with us. He passed away Aug 31 on his oldest son's birthday.

My mother in law has devolped dementia and has since been placed in a private care facility. It's pretty tough dealing with her every time she asks where her husband is. We have all decided that instead of seeing her relive it over and over, we abrubptly change the subject. Hard to see her suffer all the time. Other than her dementia she is well and fit for her age of almost 82.

I have decided that in 2009 I will be going back to work, but not sure if it'll be full time or part time.
All I know is I need my own cash, need to get out and associate with people, instead of hibernating!


Anyways enough about my troubles as there is always someone far worse off. Take care everyone. I will try and post a little more often.

This is Susan's afghan

Spring is now upon us !

Well, looks like I made it through another crappy winter. We are finally starting to see some ground around all the mounds of snow! It still has alot of melting to do. Friday and Saturday it's supposed to SNOW some more.....aaaaargh! I keep saying these snow piles won't melt until July..... I haven't been up to anything very exciting lately. That's a sign it's time to go back to work.... I will, but not until June. You see, I am flying May 24th to Fredericton, New Brunswick to visit the kids and see our grandson AND new baby granddaughter. We have not been there before so this is going to be exciting. We are also going to trek over to Nova Scotia. Hopefully I will get some fantastic pictures to show my sister when we get home. A whole 2 weeks of visiting and touring.....yippeeeeee.
I will be adding a picture of the afghan I have been working away at. I call it the Rainbowghan. Tons of color and it's cheery. It will be going to a new home soon. I have been making it for my friend Susan in Michigan. It was to be last years Xmas gift, but I started getting pain in my hands, hips and back and couldn't finish it. I found out I have Osteoarthritis. I have since started taking Celebrex and oh boy, can I get around now! Almost feel like a new woman. (whens that make over supposed to happen?) So now I have been trying to get all my unfinished projects, finished and ready to send out. So Susan....expect a package real soon!!
Well thats it for this week. Take care everyone. TTYS

The Virgin Mary

Here's the finished picture. All I need to do now is find a suitable frame and backing for it. Onto my next project!

My Pergamano Picture

This is The Virgin Mary I am working on. I sure hope she turns out. Takes up alot of my time these days! I invite comments as I go along here, and I'll post a new pic as I go!

The Wintertime Blues

Here I sit on a cold winter evening wondering what's a person to do? So here I am ! I seem to be hibernating in my craft/computer room these days. It's to cold to go outside. Hubby packs in the wood. I have been entertaining myself with Pergamano. Thats parchment crafts, as I call it. Very time consuming. I don't know anyone here to help me out while learning, so I am fumbling my way through it. Lots of wasted paper. God give me more patience!! All it takes is one little mistake. Must remind myself to get LARGE magnifier. This is a very interesting hobby though. You can make some spectacular pictures, cards....you name it it can be done!

Crisp Winter Evening

Hello Everyone. Another day in this cold climate. 2 Feet of snow and no snow removal.....errrr I mean it's manual removal. Temperature hovers between 0 and -10. Actually for this time of year the weather isn't bad. Last year it was a nightmare from hell ! 8 months of winter and aprox. 6 feet of snow. Freezing at -50. So I best not complain to loudly. I'll just go and cuddle up to the woodstove and stay warm. That's it for today.

Star Afghan

This is the Star Afghan that I have recently made.
