I found out early :)

Yep, I sure did. I'm not suppose to know until the 10th. But I found out today. And I couldn't be happier :) Oh, you want to know too? Or are you asking what the heck I'm talking about? I'm talking about student teaching... I know where I'm going. It pays to know people LOL I'm not going to share with you till the 10th though. Just to play it safe :)

So, do you remember that contest I entered where I reposted a blog entry from one of my favorite blogs that I read? Well, I was selected as one of the winners (not sure if I shared that) and I recieved my fabrics and trims today. Jen says they're not suppose to match. I think they go alright together and already have a design in mind. I guess I'll sew this weekend. I'm not sewing this week cause I have to work all week. And I have finals this week. I can't wait to share my ideas with you :) Maybe I'll share a sneak peek of the fabrics later this week...be looking for them ;0)

My Reading Habits

I am an avid book reader.  I have even been known to read a good bit of fanfiction (I'm a Twifan...yes, I admit that in public).  Since joining Goodreads I've come to love to do reading challenges.  In case you're like my best friend and have no clue what that might be, let me explain.  A reading challenge can be as simple as setting a reading goal for the year.  Or it can be as complex as one I'm doing next year that is an Artist Color Wheel Challenge - find book covers that are mainly the colors on the color wheel and are the shades of the grey scale. Anyway, I read Book Chick City's blog  http://www.bookchickcity.com/  and they're doing a Mystery/Suspense reading challenge that I'm going to join in on next year.  I'm going to see if I can read 12 mystery/suspense books.  You may be thinking that that isn't a whole lot of books for someone who claims to be an avid reader; and you're right, it's not BUT I normally don't read myste...

Crafty Round Up for mid-October

 Hi friends!!  I figured I needed to come share my sewing/stitching/quilting updates with you because it's been a while.  So, let's get started... First up is quilty goodness.  And it comes with a story.  Christmas 2021 I bought myself a block of the month subscription from Fig Tree Fabrics for her Manchester by the Sea Mystery BOM program.  If you are not familiar with Joanna and Fig Tree Fabrics, go check her out.  Her stuff is GORGEOUS!!!  I've bought her fabric forever for clothes for the girls.  Joanna does the block of the month programs and sends out fabric and patterns each month and you end up with a beautiful sampler quilt.  Manchester by the Sea was scheduled for April 2022 thru March 2023.  I got a beautiful envelope of fabric and instructions to make blocks each of those months and did not touch a one of them until we came back from Disney last month.  I'm a member of her BOM group on Facebook and have seen the fin...

Long Time No See

  Hi there!  It's been a hot minute since I've visited with you.  Let me catch you up on what's been going on. I think the last time I was here was back in October.  That would totally make sense because I got a new full time job at the end of October that had me working 50 hours a week.  With all that work going on I had little time for anything else.  Good news (or bad, depending on your point of view) is that the job is over and I am back to being a stay at home wife again.  There will be plenty of time to catch up on cross stitch and quilting.  My needles will be happy since my poor sewing machine has not been touched since November!   Once again, I am back to tracking food.  I gained back 10 pounds while working.  My body hurts again and I don't want to ache.  So, I am taking it day by day.  Positive thinking. Good food choices.  I got this. The holidays came and went.  All the girls are doing good....
