1000 post and a Christmas Ornament
I started making ornament today, do you or Mom have these coasters?
I just had to make a ornament out of them. All different and so easy.
Remember- Hot glue is your friend, and hang on to old Christmas cards.
I will tonight draw for the goody box  for my 1000 post.
Leave a comment here or on Facebook.
Have a wonderful weekend and create something.

That is 1000 post
Yes this post makes it 1001.
As I went back to my first few post,
I had to laugh.
I was telling that DD had moved in about 2 months ago and I want my house back.
Isn't this funny, since they just moved out about a week ago.
If you had told me back in 2005 that it would be this long before they had a place of their own, I would have committed myself.
Don't forget to leave a post here or on facebook for a chance to win few goodies.

And with this post
****DRUM ROLL PLEASE****
This is my 1000 post since I started many years ago.
Some would be discouraged as to the lack of friends, responses or vistors.
But I did not start this as a how to... 
but as my soap box, so to speak.
It makes me feel better to vent sometimes.
So I have a box of goodies, if you want to leave a comment.
Are you Lucky?
Is
11-11-11
your Lucky day?
I will draw next Friday.

Can you see a story here
Her hands have a story to tell
You can see into her life
The man she loved
The children she raised
The loves, the loses
The joys, the sorrows

Cammy came home today. I had to send it home with Jeanette and we met for my Birthday Lunch and Shopping. And BOY! did we shop. I am pooped. But alot has happened in the last week. I have had a wonderful Birthday with many many friends wishing  me a Happy Day!
I got flowers from someone who just signed it as I LOVE YOU!
I went to Hartsle Antique Christmas Open House on Saturday.
I got a teal Pumpkin and a stack of wasp nest and lots of goodys.
DD and family has moved out and I am trying to get my house in order.
There is not enough time in the day to do what I want to do.
I want to decorate for Christmas since I went to the Christmas Open House.
It has been a busy week, I love it!
Stay tuned for a special gift within a days.

Our family, plays dirty Santa every year.
It has got expensive and boring.
So last year I drop the $ from $25 to 10
And be creative.
It was interesting.
Malik got $10 worth of quarters taped in duck tape.
So funny and can you imagine how long it took him to peel them off.
This year, June will host us and I hope she follows suit.
I have thought of a few things, and thought you might want to try something new.
1.Share your favorite items ( I like to read, chocolate and popcorn)
2. Share you Christmas goodies. ( I enjoy making sugared pecans)
3.I love this "Our Family does" sign. You could make it on a smaller scale and frame it!
4. You can create a needlepoint towel.
I think we all could Needlepoint HO! HO! HO!
5.How about something Recycled, like the Salt and Pepper shaker Snowmen. Recycled and Cute!
Just a few ideas, enjoy!

November 1, 2011
Twenty eleven
eleventh month
first day of the eleventh month
Can you believe it?
Tomorrow is my Birthday.
I will be 51.
In November  1959, my mother was getting discouraged about concieving.
She went to the Doctor and he told her she was going to have a baby.
And to go home tell Jerry ( my dad) and celebrate.
They did, and I was born November of 1960.
Yes,  I am a 12 month baby,
You guess it, Mom was not expecting but did relax enough to concieve.
And 12 months later, I was born.
So tomorrow I will be
51 years old
18615 days old
446760 hours old
Now that is depressing.
