BRRR from stormy Ontario...
I'm so glad you all are in warmer climates, perhaps not you Susan..this is the snowbelt and now I know why...it's a sheet of white out there, not trying to get home early because it would be dangerous so might as well stay and brave it out in hopes that by late afternoon it will stop...

Glad you've decided on seeing your own Dr. Crissy..yep, you'll have to come visit me just so we can visit Canadian Tire and yes, my most favorite store of all..bits of everything there but you know how I am with tools...

I'll have to brave the storm at lunch though..a trip to Michaels..need 4 balls of wool to finish this afghan..times running on and still a fair amount to do, which I could be doing here but need wool in order to do so...

Susan you make me laugh..aren't husbands just too much..I'd have everything organized and at the last minute Roger would say he needed a gift for this one or that one, it was as though he thought I was running a christmas store and had gifts just there for the taking...I've seen us as a family (because I taught paper tole Roger bought framing and mat cutting tools) we'd sit early Christmas eve, finding watercolors or oils I had painted and he'd get the boys doing the matts and he'd do frames just so we'd have enough gifts..all the time his saying it was me who was Christmas crazy but got to tell you he was too...so it's great you make the baskets, you'll just have to make more to make sure you've enough..lol...know about some gifts costing far more than what you are to spend but you have to do what you have to do...

LindaKay, did you finish those deers you were doing last year for your collection? have you added a few more this year..photo's please...

Looking for Debbie as well..if you are lurking Debbie, how's your daughter and how's the family doing..of course you especially..are you getting some of the weather I've had this week...mom want to go Boxing Day to USA if we don't go to Florida...getting tired of Buffalo, do you have any other suggestions for us???

Judy, sounds as though you are busy with family..how nice that is..no better time..the kids will be grown to the point of leaving the nest and you'll have all of those memories...so what's crafting? should have listened to the Chicago station which I usually do in the a.m. so I'd know what weather you are having, but today, busy listening to local news just in case of road closures....

Can't move my labtec more than inches from computer, normally if I faced it towards the door you'd see SOMETHING...today it's completely white with snow blizzard..

Hope you are all warm, comfy and doing exactly what you want to be doing...
