MERRY CHRISTMAS

What a wonderful Christmas we all had. It was great to be with family and friends both on Christmas and Christmas eve. Also attending a few parties that were fun and had a lot of laughs.

Got a lot of nice presents and also made some people smile with their gifts. Hope you all had a great holiday.

Happy New Year.

It's been a while!

I completed a knitting project as a gift for someone only to find out it came out wrong! It is dish cloth with a motor home and the words Going camping. Well i apparently used the wrong size needles or something because you mcna not see the words clearly nor the camper. It may also be the color..I used an off white. It did not say the needle size in the directions so I used the ones I have used in making other dishcloths. Oh well.....that's the life of a knitter.

I have transferred out of the high school (at my request.) I am now owrking at an elementary school on the south end of Brockton. K-5. I work with 2 very nice girls. In fact the boss Laura and I grew up near each other and her sister was my friend in High school.

Have my Christmas shopping done!

A few things

Had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends. As usual ate too much. Why do we feel the need to stuff ourselves each year..probably because everything is delicious!

Been really busy making my Christmas cards..Got a late start this year due to couldn't make up my mind on what to make this year. I need to get my act together sooner next year.

Still having work done on the entry hall..am hoping that will be near done by Christmas so that the dust is down. This place has a mountain of dust that never settles all at once to be dusted away..it lingers in the air and covers stuff daily!

Thanksgiving is tomorrow...then December around the corner! This year is flying! I am thankful for my husband whos is the best anyone could ask for. My daughter, She is a sweet person. My mom and Dad and my friends.

Had a great scrap weeknd in Mansfield. Got about a dozen pages done.....Still working on Kelly's childhood book. Lots of laughs and fun!

Nothing new really

Had a good weekend...had dinner with Kelly on Friday night and then did some shopping with her. She wanted to buy some luggage. Finally got a deal at BJ's.

Today while Joe and Josh worked on the hall Kelly and I went to luch and then got our hair done. It was a fun girls afternoon. We look new and refreshed.

Went to dinner with Joe and then home to watch the Wizard of OZ in color no less. That show no matter how many times I watch it still amazes me. The witch still scares me too..hope I don't have any nightmares tonight!

This week I ahve to get my scrap booking stuff together..believe it or not the fall scrap weekend is coming up next weekend. Should be a lot of fun...like always!

Lots of things

Finished with Physical therapy....last Thursday. I now have 9 exercises to do at home 3 times a week. At least I don't need to rush off there twice a week for an hour.

Checking out Wii fit..borrowing Kelly's for a a few days to try it out. She has set me up. It's interesting to do. It covers balancing, yoga, arobics boxing ETC.. I might ask for it for Christmas if I like it and think that I will do it.

Still working on my mother's vest. It is a lot easier than Kelly's..whitch I will post a picture of as soon as I find my camera charger and charge it up. The pictures are still on the camera.

Hoping the patriot stay on their winning streak for a while longer. It's good to see Tom Brady getting his groove back along with Randy Moss.
