Mom, quit creating and come play...

 

I know, I've never posted about my little girl...I'm bad. Well, meet Oreo, our 5 pound 5 year old sweetheart. She's a miniature Pomeranian and as sweet as can be. As I play in my craft room, she sits patiently and waits for me to throw her a bone, a ball or her favorite toy so we can play fetch. She places all of her toys under my table and around my feet to remind me that I am preoccupied and that I should be down on the floor playing with her! (she makes me feel sooo guilty!) When I die and move on to my next life, I want to come back as this little queen!

Sooo... I am happy to say that I have been playing in my craft room creating my heart out.

I've had the chance to make some jewelry...this one below is an eyeglass chain for my sister. She stayed with us during the hurricane and I "broke" her reading glasses...Well, I didn't actually break them, she stepped on them after I knocked them off of the table by accident. Hubby super glued them and all is well now, but I figured if her glasses would be around her neck, things like that wouldn't happen! :)

(Just call me the problem-solver!) Viola...hopes she likes it!

        

Next is some earrings and a bracelet I made for a good friend I used to work with. Her birthday was September 9th. I know, I am late BUT hurricanes Gustav and Ike decided to pay a visit to the gulf coast and wiped out her birthday. So I will deliver this to her tomorrow with a "Sorry I am Late" card...I am sure she will understand.

                

Today is my husband's birthday & Wednesday (October 1st) will be  mine. Lucky me, he is easy to please...he just wanted to do NOTHING today and that is exactly what we did. Drove me crazy to say the least but I managed! However he says that I am not so easy to please. October starts my "birthday month" as he calls it. I think I am rather easy to please because all I wanted for my birthday this year was to attend  Silver Bella and that alone is a gift in itself.  (Since Silver Bella is in November, I'll just settle and declare this time of year my "birthday quarter")...How 'bout that?

Happy Birthday to ya Thad...I love you!!!!
