And what did YOU do today?

Day 56

OK so I have to note here that I was rereading the previous post thinking to myself uh I told you to think about the business you want to have for a month or so ummm well that might not work out so good for everyone cause for some people you wait too long and you end up talking yourself out of it....so I say if you know you want to do it just go for it.

Back to the day here....not bragging or anything BUT I got so many things done on my TODO list it was crazy...lots of little stuff that never gets done when you are sick, like I actually have clean floors and no dishes on the counters WHEW

The mailbox was ready to explode when I opened it today cause mail just does not get picked up when I am sick-bad i know but I just forgot is all...anyway there was my package from the 1 Million Pillowcase challenge I am participating in from AllPeopleQuilt.com--I was waiting to say anything until I got some people lined up to donate them too and turns out there is a great lady who sends them to our National Guard troops here in New Mexico and it is called Ziacase gotta put together a cutie blog button and official post this week so that will kick it off for me....gonna get the swim team involved in it too! So excited to be a part of this charity! Might even have to get me some of this Robert Kaufman fabric they featured (think it is called Mingle in Monolua)




In amongst this excitement of opening a WHOLE bunch of mail I did some fun homeschooling with the girls, cleaned a little more and sewed some beads onto the fairy tale shoe quilt square beading is slow going but very satisfying to see the progress...more on that tomorrow..

...today I got down to finishing a pair of lounge pants that I had sitting in my UFO basket for the longest time because I wanted to redo them from a pattern that was NOT made for those of us vertically challenged (yes I do believe that all kitchen cabinets should be lowered to my level) so I had to chop and rehem....they are in the (top left on this picture) Chloe's Imagination line, the orange fabric of Tina Givens--I love her patterns and her fabrics as they are very whimsical and almost look as if they will fly off the fabric and the oranges are my FAVORITE shade of orange--I have a huge love for bright bold colors--anyway check out her newest line, I can't wait to get my crafting hands on it



so that was my excitement for today...I must get back to a few more beads before calling it a night...

...so what are you gonna do for 6 more weeks of winter eh?
