Until Next Time...

oh.my.gosh!!!!!! Look what I just found in my laundry room! Well, not the particular one in the picture. But it's friend/cousin/twin...YUCK!!! Thank goodness my laundry room is NOT attached to the inside of my house. I think I would just die if it was. It's bad enough that he/she is in there, but the thought that it could get inside where we are makes me faint! And to make it worse, it's by my Christmas stuff :( My precious collectable Christmas ornaments. Hubby is on a run to Wally Wolrd to get a rat trap. We put mouse traps out this weekend with no luck. And now I know why...it's bigger than the blanking trap!!! I'll keep you updated....

I got a new dining room set today! I know, you're thinking "so what?!" Well, in our house, a sit down dinner is something we USE to do on a regular basis. Then our family grew. And grew. And grew. Now that there is 7 of us, it's rare for us to sit and have a family meal. That and the fact that I've got the kitchen table covered in fabric and sewing machines HAHA!!! So I'm happy to say that I got a new table and chairs for my dining room. And the girls and I already used for lunch today :)

So, I finally finished something new. I know, it's taken me what seems like forever. I did this one in nontraditional colors....pink and brown aren't usually colors associated with Christmas. But with me, you never can tell LOL The jury is still out on whether or not I like this pattern (it's the popular Euro pattern called Vida by Farbenmix). I guess I'll have to give it another try and see what I think then. I'll let you know. I've got another Christmas set almost finished. It's in red and green for all you traditionalist ;0) I've also got a purse painted to match it. I didn't think I'd like painting...still not sure LOL I guess painting is one of those things that you can learn to like ???? I should be able to finish it this week since I'm not working all week long. At least as of right now I'm not :) Have a great week!
