Good News!!!

Doing the happy dance!!! My wool arrived and my dolls have hair!!! So happy they are and life is getting better!!! I've been a bit out of sorts here with my son leaving for bootcamp. BUT..... now he will be going active duty in January!!! I know that still means bootcamp and leaving home for somewhere...but it also means he starts his future doing what he wants to do. I think more time will be good for me. So Im happy today so far!!! Now off to sew dolls here... four naked bodies on the floor are screaming indecent exposure!!!

Bummed

Well Im back from Washington, NO WOOL has arrived at my doorstep. My dolls still are bald.....Does anyone buy bald dolls? Im so tired of waiting.....
On another note, papers are signed now and on the 27th Shane goes off to bootcamp for 8 weeks. I will be honest in saying my heart is worn on my shoulder right now. I need a pick me up..... that wool better get here!!!

Did you hear me??

OH MY IM TICKED!!! Did you hear me scream that?? That cute little mailman didnt bring me a thing today!!! Junk mail !!! I am so ticked.. and my dolls well they are beside themselves as I sit here trying to make them understand why they are so bald still. Im off to Vancouver, WA for an overnight stay.....will close the doors in the sewing room and hope tomorrow I get that sought after package!!!

What's wrong with this picture?????

Let's just say Im not a happy camper. These poor dolls have been waiting patiently for some golden locks of hair and IM TIRED OF WAITING!!! You find a good source for wool and yep.. its out of the country... which means waiting time through that dreaded thing called customs! Im beyond not happy,, and these girls are so dang sad it isnt funny... so tired of them looking at me with that look of disgust while all these other dolls are getting hair. HMMM is that called doll abuse???

So once again today.. I will wait for my ever returning mailman with peering eyes out the window and hopefully there will be a package today!!! OH please, OH please!!! On another note... Im tired of waiting and ordered wool from another source last night... so once again... WAITING!!! For anyone that knows me... IM A NOW CHILD.... If I want something I want to have it now... I dont want to wait and think about it.

Lets just hope I have good news with my mail today... have you ever seen the movie CHUCKY?? These dollies may take revenge on me!!! Have a great day everyone!!!

What a Weekend we had

Wow what a weekend we had... alot of hard work put in the yard. Before and after pics and still have things to do!! Have you ever felt you start something and just when you feel you are completing it you find out you need to do more elsewhere?? Always something here to do...

Well the yard is where we spent two days of our holiday,,,, didn't sew on anything here and Im feeling really crappy about it. I gotta stay out of the yard and make some money!! On the other hand we are getting lots of compliments on our yard... so the work is not going without notice.

Yesterday we left for Eugene and the Olympic track and field trials. OH MY so worth going to!!! Pictures were taken when we arrived, by the time we left it was packed with over 21,000 people...Just the thought that these are the athletes that are off to Beijing to compete is very moving. Very normal people and very patriotic. Perfect weekend to have the meet as we celebrated our birthday. Records were broken and hearts were in the same breath. Individuals crossed the finish line with arms in the air and others fell at the line. It was very moving to watch and one I won't soon forget.

Now that Ive played in the yard and at a track meet I am going back to my sewing.... I listed Miranda the witch today!!! Wow she has been in the making for a few weeks now and I just got her done... how sad is that??? And as I sit here and write I have naked bodies in a pile, no clothes made... what am I waiting for?? The clothes fairy to miraculously come in when the door is shut and create them for me? Oh if it were only so easy!! So having said all that... Im off for now!!!

My babies....

Besides my yard and my sewing what brings me alot of joy is my dear babies... Yep thats 5 cats...all indoor spoiled!!! See if you can figure out a pattern here..... My first cat is named Mai Tai, the second Daquiri, the third Bacardi , the fourth Brandy and my daughters the fifth Kegger.... I love them all and they all have their own personalities to deal with but I wouldn't trade them for anything. Yes.. I am a cat lover and it breaks my heart to see those that are abused or injured... can't even watch ANIMAL COPS!!! Im the lady that stops to see a animal in the middle of the mall when they are adopting them out... the big puppy dog eyes I give my husband that says I want it!!!

On another note... I'm creating again today. Yesterday was spent working in the yard and I think the majority of this weekend will be doing that so best get as much as I can out of today.

Back Porch Pickins is having a blog giveaway... all you have to do is post on her blog!!! If you get a chance take a peek and post... her blog is worth viewing!!! http://backporchpickins.blogspot.com/2008/06/blog-give-way.html... Until the next time I post.... Have a wonderful day!!!

A Little Change today...

Well a new look on my blogspot!!! Thanks to my dear sis in law... Not sure its beautiful like some I see but this is the best I can do!!! I am so slow when it comes to learning all there is to learn out there on these sites.!!! So bear with me... eventually I will catch onto it all.... maybe? I have added pictures today finally figuring out what was plaguing me yesterday. I swear sometimes everything goes wrong I try to do!!!

Wow.... Can you believe its July 1ST!!!! Half the year over and what have I done?? I haven't stock piled or made alot to have ready for the fall rush.. you know the promise I make to myself every year. Oh how easy it would make my life if I could only follow through with it.
