Lost my mind?

I may have bitten off more than I can chew this time. 

I piled up all of the material that I'll be using to make six blankets this year. 
And I must admit that there are four more that I don't have fabric picked out for (in other words, there should be a lot more fabric in the picture!).

Not sure if MBB should be searching for mental hospitals yet or not...
But at least I am starting in February and not December with a goal of Christmas for 70% of them...



Namaste.

Nana's Helper

Zilla insisted on helping Nana shovel snow.
And I do mean insisted!
I was trying to shovel while holding PipSqueak and Zilla was having no part of that...
It wasn't so much that he wanted to do what Nana was doing, but he couldn't stand that PipSqueak was getting to do something that he wasn't.

Gotta love sibling rivalry!

He did a pretty good job of getting the snow on the shovel, but Nana had to help by getting the white stuff off of the shovel.


Namaste.

Deck...

Here are some pictures of our deck from start to...
Well, it is supposed to be to finish (since we finished it last summer)...But I have yet to take any get any good finish pictures...
Yeah, that's my story...


Hey, do you know how cold it is out there?


So, here are the start and some of the in process pictures.
Once it gets warm and I get home when it is light, I will post finish pictures (if I remember).


Whoever wrote the directions and said "Buy materials today. Build on Saturday. Swim on Sunday" must have lost their marbles!


It took WAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY longer than one day to build!














Namaste.

It's That Day Again...

Yes, I've been slacking a bit on the blogging lately...
Along with the exercising...
And keeping my sanity...


But my computer is now operational in my craft room, so I might blog a bit more.
If I make it to my craft room.


Since work is exploding in my face and will get even worse in March...
Let's just say that I need to get to my craft room.


So, what brings me blogging today?


Well, a trip to my craft room for one...
After all, I must celebrate my least favorite holiday of the year!


Doesn't matter if I'm single or not, this day always sucks.
Don't expect that will ever change.
But then again, many say it's a fake holiday anyway...
So, maybe I should say that it is my least favorite fake holiday of the year!


Namaste.

Approaching It a Different Way...

Well, the remodeling bug has hit again.
But this time, we are collecting bids.

Yep, things need to be done and done quickly and we just don't have the time.
Don't really have the money either, but I'll make it work.

We are having two or three companies bid to finish the Master Bathroom, the Railing and who knows what else...
Maybe installing all of the molding, including that crown molding???
Definitely fixing all of the drywall!

We have a year to get it all done and I'm sure that we'll have to start working on it again personally when it warms up.  Cause at some point, the money is going to run out...

Here's to seeing how this goes!

Namaste.

Great Moment

I was supposed to be on vacation a few days last week (over six working days to be exact)...
Didn't work out so well.

I ended up with one day vacation and worked ~50 hours over the other five.  
Let's not talk about my frame of mind...

But that did lead to an evening of watching HGTV, eating pizza, and drinking wine...
We'll talk about Pizza Hut and how to apply sauce to a pizza another day...

Made for a nice few hours...


Namaste.
