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!!

A thank you and a FO

I want to first show you my new teapot cosy. I joined the teapot cosy at Crochetville and this is my package. I just love it.


Here is a round ripple that I finished a couple of weeks ago. I really like the way the colors fall in this one.

I have finished up all swaps but one. I still have the purple square swap going but I should be able to finish that one up within the month. I have 32 made and need 32 more so that will be my portable project for the near future.

I will post more in a bit about how my son broke his arm. Fun. Fun.
