For a VERY important announcement....
No! Christmas was not changed... don't get too excited!
But CHRISTMAS around here would be a LOT more fun because of my BREAK!

I REALLY WANT TO WIN THIS.... (and I'm sure you don't!) - but I'm going to share, because I said I would... and I ALWAYS keep my word! :)

To celebrate the launch of this new show, our friends at Janome are letting us give away TWO (yes, TWO!!) dream machines! Someone is going to win the Janome 350e EMBROIDERY machine and a second person is going to win the Janome DC4030 SEWING machine! Now how cool is that?!

9 months....3 weeks....6 days......

And Christmas will count!!!!
OH MY! It is time to kick into gear!

This week I am taking all my "saved" files of ideas and such and putting them into a "BOOK" - so that it is right at hand.... I have sorted it somewhat like a recipe book - Gifts ideas for her, Gifts ideas for him, Card & tag ideas, Activities, Recipes, Card mailing list, etc.... I'm so excited to FINALLY get this put together! (If you are interested in a copy - let me know - and as soon as I find out how much the "copies" are - I'll let you know) I know, I know, I have them on the computer... but honestly - sometimes - I just need to have it in my hand - you know - something tangible... Plus, it is nice to have a "picture" to remind me - or get my mind moving along too! So... If you're interested.... let me know....

My other projects for this month are making my "Activity/Countdown calendars" and "stockings!" YEAH!!! I love stockings - have I told you that before??? I've been unpicking like crazy - and trying to find designs to put on them... I just can't wait.... Are you getting yours ready? I have lots of stockings if you are in need of any.... Just let me know - it is the "SPECIAL" of the month!

I hope to get a WORKING camera soon! So I can post pictures....

I still need to round up a few totes and sort some things... I'm also going to work on my ornaments - I've decided I want to do a memory tree... should be fun....could be a lot more work than I'm ready for ... but we'll see....


So.... Tell me - what have you been up to? What are your goals for the month?
