Accomplishing things!!!

Well I have finally made some headway in my creating!!! Yesterday I spent the day listing and writing...seems a neverending job that I really dont enjoy. The following pics show what I've been busy working on. I love the cone snowmen and my newest pumpkin cone. Both are offered on the WSOAPP site and Lemon Poppy Seeds. There are many new items I am selling on both sites and ebay!!!

A dear friend in Nacogdoches,Texas had asked me to make the pinkeeps for her shop. Just heard from her this morning, seems a tree fell on their home and they sustained alot of wind in her area. She watched pieces of siding and roofing come off her neighbors home. I was just happy to wake up to an email that they are okay, without power and using a generator but alive. Got a phone call from my sister in Indiana seems at that time she had lost about 7 trees in her area and since then my mom has updated it to be more like 20. What a storm Ike turned out to be! Haven't heard anything from Linda ( my sister in law ) of SimpleTresures. Hope all is okay there.

Well I guess its time to get things boxed up to send that sold and get busy with sewing again. I have high hopes today to sew and somehow clean the house, scrub showers etc... oh lucky me!!!

Why is it so devastating?

First off good morning as I sit here with my cup of coffee...... and all of a sudden hear in this shriek voice... SOMEONE GOT SICK ON THE CARPET!!! Now mind you its just my husband and I here this morning..... I wouldve thought the world has came to an end as I grab a paper towel and pet spray to clean up this devastating mess on the carpet. ( I have four cats it happens!) I get down the stairs as he stands there over it... like he is protecting it from some ghost that might step in it. For the love of it, I take the paper towel pick it up and spray some stuff on it and walk up the stairs... he looks at me like thats what you do?? Now why in the world does he have to yell at me from the downstairs about this??? WHY didnt he just pick it up and get the spray?? Why am I the only one in the house with this knack for responding?? I just dont get it!!! I am leaving for Indiana in 15 days and will be gone a week,,,, HOW THE HECK WILL THIS HOUSE LOOK WHEN I RETURN?? Kinda getting worried since my husband says he needs a list of what he has to do. My comment... you mean you cant see that the cat litter on the floor needs to be swept more than once a day? They need to be fed and the litter box has to be scooped out everynight? I really dont know what he thinks I do all day long, this job never ends here.
Now no pics to show this morning on my progress but later today I may get one or two up on here. Im sewing and actually getting things completed!!! Very pleased with my progress yet four naked dollies still sit patiently in the corner waiting to be dressed!! Maybe today???

Doin the happy dance!!!

Well its been a good day here. First I have finished items for sale soon and I couldnt be happier with myself other than I still have doll bodies not dress on the floor...LOL me bad!! The mailman arrived today with a knock on my door and there was a wonderful package addressed to myself!!! OH the thrill of cutting the tape and the victory of torn paper!!! And oh all the goodies inside that smelled just wonderful!

OH so dang happy!!! This was the second part to my already swap,,, PeaPicker had sent me!! She truly outdid herself!!! The first pic was sent to me earlier and then the second pic is what arrived today!!!! Pea you overdid it but I love it all!!! Im in for the next swap we all do on WSOAPP!!! ....Oh doing the happy dance!!!!

So now its back to work I go!!!! So many things to do before my trip to Indiana!!!! Until my next post... !!!

IT'S OPEN!!!! IT'S OPEN!!!

If anyone gets a chance take a look at the new Whispered Secrets of a Primitive Past and all the wonderful things for sale!!! Today is the first day and hope it turns out to be a great site to sell from. I have a few items for sale and hope to be adding more very soon.
As for my sewing.... LOL I didnt make much headway yesterday sewing. Seems mom duties were more important, like shopping and putting together a entertainment center!! Luckily Laresa and I did most of it and my son and his friend stopped by and helped with the final touches. My poor hand was so sore from using a dang philips screwdriver!!! But the final product was pretty!!! Now I still have the upstairs to carpet clean and heck still need to sew!!! Better luck today!!!??????????

Finished one order!

Okay lets just say I had good intentions today to get alot done in my sewing.... well sad to say I only finished my order. But arent they pretty!!! Very pleased at the finished pinkeep.
Well what did I do other than the sewing?? I cleaned the downstairs carpet!!! My husband bought me a new carpet cleaner a few weeks ago and I finally used it. Wow, I have a pretty good vaccum and I cant believe how much crap still came out of the carpet!!! But it is so soft now and fluffy... feels great on the bare feet. So now when the kids/husband comes home SHOES OFF!!! Tomorrow I hope to sew but before I can even think about it I have to color my hair and clean carpets upstairs!!! There goes my day for the most part. So if I get anything worked on tomorrow I will be sharing!

Finally going to sew!!!

Amazingly I am done moving boxes and unpacking boxes!! I swear I walked up and down so many stairs my legs should look pretty darn good.. LOL well its a good thought anyways. Seriously though... my daughter lives upstairs and with all the stairs in our house and then all those stairs getting stuff in the apartment whew... just glad its over! Her place is adorable, and when all the stuff is on the walls etc it will feel like home to her. I will take pictures once that part is done. After moving all her stuff I had to come home to moving my sons stuff into my daughters old room upstairs... YEP more stairs to climb!! Now I know why I woke up so sore!!

Now for the part I havent done!!! SEW. Today without fail I am working on finishing up a order and then onto all the naked bodies that lay on the floor.

So now I hope I have some good news that something here in either pictures is completed today!! I will be back to update!!!

Wow I'm Still tired!!

Well I'm up early this morning... it's moving day for my daughter!! Not sure if I am sad or happy. Since she is only moving into town in a small one bedroom apartment she will be close by. Of course I will see her often due to me cat sitting during the day so that little guy isn't bored. I think what I will miss the most is walking into her room to just talk.
Not only are we moving her furniture I am moving my son from downstairs into her old room. ( Bad thing I still have to paint the room and now will have to do it moving his furniture around ) Yep more work ahead when I need to be sewing!
Lemon Poppy Seed is updated with a couple Christmas items and later this week the new WSOAPP website to sell under is opening, Sept. 7th!!! I am looking forward to the new venture and hope everyone does very well. Nice small group and very well managed. So thats my day so far this early morning. Maybe later I will have pictures to show of the move!!! Until then....
