Remember me??

Not sure if anyone is still even coming around. I think I have settled a few things that were overwhleming me for the past few months.

I am back to crocheting but only for me. Still taking a self imposed break from testing patterns. Even though I truly enjoy the process, I enjoy the process of crocheting for me more.

Hopefully, I will be able to blog a bit more regularly and even throw a picture or two in.

On Vacation

I am taking a break from blogging and everythig online. I might be back someday.

All I have to say is....

IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR!!!!!!! Jr. won the Shootout!! You have no idea how happy this makes me. Now it's on to the Duels on Thursday (and yes....My hubby will be treating me to a night in and watching the Duels via DVR). Then, next Sunday is the 50th Daytona 500. I can't wait to see how Jr. is going to do. Hopefully, with his new car and his new team....HE WILL ROCK!!!!!

Sunday update

Well, even with my good intentions I guess I am now going to shoot for Sunday updates. I can't even find the time to visit all my friends and forums I like.

On to updates, Cole went to the orthopedic surgeon for his final visit last Thursday and the doctor said that his arm is healed. Thank the lord for that one. That same day, we ended up with 5-6 inches of snow and he wanted to go sledding. Being the good mom....I said...Ummmmm NO!! I told him that he needed to let it heal a bit more (as this was his first day without any support on his arm in well over 14 weeks). He ended up being ok with that seeing that it was only in the single digits.

The pics I have to share today are a baby round ripple for Jennifer and my latest tested doily.





Enjoy the upcoming week. I've gotta run as hubby is taking me out to dinner and the children are spending the night with their grandparents. Gotta love those grandparents. Love having a break every now and then.

enjoy and have a blessed day!!

Remember me??

It's been awhile. Alot has happened while I have been MIA. Just a quick recap...I started a new job in October. I'm loving it! It's so nice to have work to do. LOL. My mother moved 3 and 1/2 hours away. We miss her... Cole and one of his friends were playing in the front yard the first weekend in November and Cole fell and broke both bones in his arm..OUCH!! That bought him a 3 day stay in the hospital along with sugery and a cast for 11 weeks. He is doing much better now.

The holidays have come and gone. Thankfully. I just don't like all the stress and hubbub that goes along with the holidays. And lets not even talk about how rude everyone is. We had a great Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.

On the crocheting front...
I have finished my Lace and Bobbles afghan. It ended up being a Christmas present for one of my friends. She loves it!! I really enjoyed making it (even with all the single crochet rounds...)


I also tested this scarf for Katchkan at Simply Crochet. Another great pattern from a wonderful designer. Go check her out, if you haven't yet.


Well, gotta get dinner on the tables. The troups are hungry.

Enjoy and have a blessed day!!
