I'm Still Here!

I have had a couple of comments as to where I have been lately. Okay - I'm still here! I realize it has been a while since I posted. Six days in fact since my last post. There are a lot of reasons why I have slacked off from my posting. Here are a few of them.

1. I spent a lot of time with dear hubby this past weekend. When I wasn't with him I was working on the Monster In The Living Room.

2. After I finished my Potted Posies and posted about it, working on the Monster seemed a boring topic to blog about. It's not like I haven't been talking about the Monster lately.

3. I have had the blahs the past couple of days. I am attributing the blahs to the gloomy gray days we have been having here and hormones. The past couple of days I was even blah about doing anything quilt related. On Monday I played with my fabric for about an hour. I was getting some of my recent purchases ready for the washing machine. I worked on the Monster for about the same time. Yesterday, I didn't even want to work on the Monster, but I did for about an hour. I then poked my finger pretty bad, bled, and called it quits for the day. I had no desire to do anything else quilt related at all. That my friends is very unusual for me!

Today the sun came out, and I felt like I needed to stand in the sun and soak it up! I did end up getting out and running some errands. It was actually fun to put on my sunglasses! I am more of myself now, and for that I am very happy!

I have been given a couple of blog awards lately and I will be posting them soon. Thanks Charlene and Jessica!

My dear friend Charlene has recently become a Disney Travel Specialist. She has been working very hard and giving a lot of quotes on trips to many Disney Vacation Wantabe's. Notice I said giving quotes. She was working so hard, but vacation seakers interested in a Spring trip were wanting information now, and not necessarily wanting to book yet. Well today, she received her first official booking - yeah! I am so happy for her! Another reason why I am so happy is that I was able to give her a gift I have been saving for her for just this occasion. I made this pillowcase for her.

Char loves pirates (especially one named Jack) and when I saw this fabric I thought of my friend!

How perfect is this? I also found some neat red fabric with Micky Mouse heads that I used on the cuff. Congratulations on your first booking Char!

Oh blogger - when are you going to fix the spell checker? Please excuse any goofs on my part. My dictionary is handy...but you know how that goes!
