Lots Of News

2011-05-18T20:11:00.001-07:00

Doing a happy dance here in my little corner. I am finished with the children's writing course,
it was lots of work & some fun too! I am thinking of taking the advanced program, but for now i am happy.
It's gonna be fun deciding where to hang my diploma, hehe.
I want to also send out a big hug & thanks to these ladies who have sent me packages of wonderful

findings for creating more atc's for swaps too! There is just to much stuff for pictures, my little

computer would have heart failure, hehe.

Fran B
Esmerelda S
Elinor O
And the lady who just put her last name, LaGrange.

You ladies are more then generous!

AND, thank you to Anne C for the great postcard with stamps from malaysia!

Happy creating everyone!

Cracked Up

2011-02-23T16:44:00.001-08:00

My foot, that is. Now you didn't think I was gonna tell you I cracked up, I hope?
Yea, ok hehe. Last week I sprained my foot bad hitting it on a heavy chair, OMG did it hurt like hell! I have never broken anything, but this was just nasty. Don't ever want to. So, anyway, I have been sitting around the last week doing pretty much nothing. Hobbling around like an old cripple. I have been working on a new woven bag to pass some of the time. This one is gonna be lined, a little different then the small ones I did. If you want to see it, it's gonna be on my fiber arts blog, so check out the link. Not much else going on this week.

There I go on my crutches... X.X.X.X.

Cake!

2010-07-31T14:18:00.000-07:00

Isn't that what it's all about? Hehe. Got up this A.M. & had all sorts of nice stuff
going on. First I got two envies from two of my atc swap pals. Thanks Lisa P and
Marj S! Love them! Then I got some movies from hubby and son, amoung them Tom Selleck
and a Robert Duvall ! Got roses, and the funniest card with cute hammie on front, and
it plays The Hamster Dance! What a riot!
This weekend has been lots of fun!

Party!

2010-07-30T18:44:00.000-07:00

Yea, I know my b-day isn't till tomorrow, but we partied tonite anyway.
Daughter came over with cake, and postcards (yaaay!) for me! We ordered a ton of
chinese food and had a regular feast, hehe! Then it started raining like crazy, so she
had to drive home in that. Now I have all the little cool findings from our fortune
cookies packages to make up some atc cards to put up on my fiber arts blog. They will
turn up in the next couple days, hehe.
You can see the link to my blog under my other pages. I also have other cards on my
Flickr page at http://www.flickr.com/
Over all it was a great evening.

Update and revision

2010-01-07T11:57:00.001-08:00

Just an update on David, not much to say about it right now, got a couple more squares

done. I still have to decide what it is going to be when finished. Also, I have

decided to revise my project list for 2010. It is to vague to really make much sense

of it, so I'm going to name specific projects to do. They will not all be cross stitch

items. Hopefully some of them will get done (haha).

Progress on David

2009-12-30T20:52:00.000-08:00

Well, I worked on it for awhile tonite, and I think I made good progress. I stabbed my finger about a dozen times, I swear, that little needle hurts like bloody hell. I'm surprised I'm not on the floor bleeding to death, lol. I think I deserve a purple heart, or somthing. I am happy with it.

Changing the subject a bit, I cleaned my little piggies house tonite, then she decided to run under the table and not come out. Little brat. So, guess who had to crawl under the table to get her. Hmm, I wonder...

Hehe, I should'nt complain, we all love her to bits, and wouldn't have it any other way. Hubby works tonite, then has five days off. Yippee!

David Danced- first update

2009-12-28T21:48:00.001-08:00

Ok, I cheated and started on it early. So, here is the first picture of my newest

design, and the first of 2010. It probably won't be to hard to guess what some of it

will be from just looking at it, that's ok, hehe.
I didn't really do much in the way of stitching this last year, I was busy with alot

of other things, which now includes a writing course for the next year. So I added a

few goals for the new year, hope it will be enough of a push to keep me going.
I don't know if I will add any thing more, I probably will if I come across something

I really like, which seems to happen alot, hehe.
I already have a felt craft project in the planning stage, so there I go already. I

don't think I will ever not have somthing to do!

I will add more if somthing comes up. :)

A very nice Christmas

2009-12-25T15:11:00.001-08:00

"In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be
registered. This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria. And
all went to be registered, each to his own town. And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem,
because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his
betrothed, who was with child. And while they were there, the time came for her to
give birth. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling
cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn."
--Luke 2:1-7

Jesus is the reason for the season. That is why we celebrate Christmas.
It was a very nice day. We opened gifties yesterday, as hubby has to work tonight,
and we all got nice things. After we opened eveything, we had a big paper ball fight
with all the wrappings, it was fun, hehe.
As of yet, I have not started on my latest stitchy design, "David Danced". I was going
to start it, but then decided to wait until after christmas & new years. So now I have
that one and another one I am working on, to get stitched up and put in my photos.
I am also adding a list of a few things I want to do this year.

I will add more if I think of somthing. :)

Warm soda and a new website

2009-08-15T13:48:00.001-07:00

Yea, we have been getting some pretty hot days here, the kind where you open a nice
cold soda, and all of a sudden there is this loud WHOOSHing sound, and you have
warm soda, hehe.
Anyway, we are enduring as best as we can. I lost my tripod site because when we got
firefox, it refused to work after that. Now I have found a site called moonfruit,
it's working nicely for just my little page.

You will find it at http://debscorner.moonfruit.com/#

It has my blog addy right at the top, so all you stitchers and swappers can see
just where to go!

Have a cool day!

Hulk puzzle and guinea pigs

2009-08-13T11:49:00.001-07:00

My son and I had fun last night, working on this puzzle. It did not take a long
time, only 100 pcs, but the together time was great.
It was *85 yesterday, and headed that way again today, bummers! We have a good
collection of games & puzzles, so maybe we will spend the day just playing, hehe.
Our little piggy is feeling the heat to, she just lays in her house like a little
fur rag, poor sweetie. I wish they had zippers on their little coats, so they
could take them off when it's so hot, sigh.

More later.

A Fun Day!

2009-07-31T14:53:00.000-07:00

Yea, I know, I have not been around lately, but today (and last night),
was lots of fun. (My birthday), and my daughter took me out to eat.
Got some nice things, and cake too.
So, I haven't been doing a whole lot of stitching, have been doing
a little more writing again, and playing around with trading a few stamps
for my book.
I am feeling kind of bad that I haven't been posting for so long, but I
get busy with other things too, my family is one big one.
I love both my kids dearly (how can you not love your kids?) Hehe.
They are the only two that are going to be, and believe me, that's
enough. Can't have any more.
So, anyway, I am so horribly far behind on my stitching that I'll never
catch up. I'm a hopeless starter junkie with a nice pile of wip's.
They are evil, but one day will be defeated.
I actually did get the pins and magnet projects done that I had planned
for june and july, and that is it, sheesh. I am going to make up some of
the little russian dolls into ornaments, the pattern looks so cute.
I also want to plan and do a felt penny rug with some nice colors in it,
sheesh, I am going to drive poor Greg nuts with all this junk laying
around, hehe. I am THE queen of wip's, hehe.
So, besides all that, I actually did some cleaning today, holy crap!
I'm not saying alot, but some, hehe.
Ok, is I think of anything else, i will post.
Happy trails.

Stamp RR

2009-06-04T14:36:00.000-07:00

Hey! I'm so happy today! I got the stamps RR back that I hosted in May, in
one of my swap groups. I got a bunch from The Netherlands, Canada, and
Australia.
Thanks Brian, for letting me host a RR!

Wonderful Saturday!

2009-05-09T18:54:00.000-07:00

I had so much fun today! I went to a Mother/Daughter lunch at our church with
my mom and older sister. The menu was great, baked fish, pasta salad, fresh
fruit, and cheesecake! My sister gave me a beautiful china cup with
hummingbirds painted on it, from her and her husband.
I haven't had such a good time in quite awhile!

A small world

2009-05-05T19:50:00.000-07:00

The internet is a small place, and sometimes not at all a nice one, but I have
recently found alot of great people with the same interests on here, since I
started this blog as my homepage. I'm busy with all sorts of fun stuff,
being in a bunch of yahoo groups, of all my different interests.
Happy sailing!
