No package yet Betty, but will post as soon as it arrives.

Hi, all! I just wanted to post a few pictures of the arm chair pin cushion that Bettypauze had put on the other thread. Once I realized which way to turn the pockets, it was easy!

I made this for my mother, because she likes to crochet and is always losing her hooks. She had made herself some kitchen curtains before Thanksgiving, and had lots of leftover material (which I . . . confiscated . . . ), so I used pieces of that material, so it would sort of match.

Here is the bottom.

I didn't take a picture of it hanging from my recliner, because the arms are much wider than the arms on my mothers chair. So, I took a picture of it hanging from my computer chair.

Betty, my tooth is still bothering me when I'm not on pain killers, but it's getting better.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Laura, sorry to hear you have a tooth ache, will you need to have it pulled?

Looks like you kept yourself busy, busy...Loved the crafts you showed. And Christmas looked like you were surrounded
with family and love...I like your new craft room shelves too. lol, want to come organize me? holy mess, I've got stuff all over the place.
One would never ever know This place was pretty clean...

I want to thank ALL of you for thinking of me while I was away, I thought about all of you as well, and really miss ya's.
And also Thank You Liz, for reporting my whereabouts...It is always so cool of you to travel with me so i don't go Road crazy! lol, eyes and mind on txt and not on the road, leaves DH and family some sanity too.

Florida was Wonderful, We mostly Relaxed at the resort. I did alot of beach walking and listening to the sounds of Waves thundering to shore. I got to see a couple gorgous Sunsets and the Blue moon! LOL, didn't even realize it was the blue until Steve mentioned it...
It was pretty cold, but not as cold as it is there this week. We had one Spectacular day. We went to an Island and shelled. All the while we were there, we thought of Julia, she loves, loves to collect shells. LOL, have no fear dear girl of mine, we collected half the island, lolol.
We also visited our Friend Judy. She lives in the Tampa area and Sabrina got to see her friend, who lives literally 10 minutes to Judy.
Also another lifetime friend lives not to far from the resort, so We got to spend time with him too...

Crissy, I loved your snowman!! he turned out to be wonderful and what a fun way to spend the day. LOL, you are too cute, well i hope you get your snow day. Coming down quite heavily today, been snowing since last night. All in the end we are suppose to get.

Hi Mary!! Oh how very glad I was to see you and DH went to visit your sister!. LOL, even tho you had to "guilt" him into going. Anice long ride, i think is great oppertunity to visit. And so, so happy you two were able to spend a night out, sounded like lots of fun.
Hey, thats great your going to seminars, They are jam packed with info. I used to supply materials for our seminars, man never a few minutes in between. But they could be lots of fun too, I hope you enjoyed it....Yay on the new computer a most excellent gift, which reminds me, Thank you, thank you, was the sweetest things to say Thanks to DH for my new subscription.

Waving hello Laura, I am glad you had a happy birthday.

Debbie, Wow, you've had quite the scare too. mini strokes and didn't realize, my gosh. I am so glad they figured things out and you are on the road to healing...ROFLOL, thought about you and Betty with the GPS system...big bummer i didn't get one again, so between Jacob, on the way there and me on the way back were the Navigation system...

Barb, Hello there, My gosh, your surprise quilt is absolutley splendid! I was glad to see you had a great time during the holidays as well.

Linda Kay, Hello over to you, Sounds like you've been busy with quilting too...Now i read somewhere you may have to get another surgery? Geesh will be thinking of you all day and hope and pray the procedure will help you out of pain, so you knee can heal.

Always got you in my thoughts and prayers, sending ya big hugs.

Nice to see some new friends, Welcome Syrumani and Marti.
Syrumani, Your mom is going to love the armchair pin cusioun! Very pretty, colors. Oh and Betty, great idea as a remote control holder too...LOL, Would have to make 2 for all the remotes. Anyway you did beautiful job on it.
Marti, i couldn't believe how cold it was all along the South...We left it was 44 at home, and all along the way I was reporting to Liz, the farther south we went the farther down the temp went too! I hope this cold snap ends quickly, Yikes too many crops already lost.

Geese i hope I didn't miss anyone,
LOL, I will close this post with a pic...

Skittles first Christmas!

Somerset, KY(Zone 6b)

I'm just hoping the predictions for next week are correct. We're due for a heat wave all week with temps in the low 40's. Than the next storm will hit. Oh Well,

I've been spend time burning tree branchs that keep falling out of these old trees. Than had an idea while roaming around at Lowes. The larger branchs I'm going to cut off one foot pieces and use them to encircle my garden areas. That will give me a raised bed area and I am already doing the lazagna thing so this will give me something to use to make the raised beds when I can't afford to go out and buy lumber to do it with.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Hey Judy! Long time no see. Sounds like you had a great time for your vacation?
I am going to the hospital in the morning for day surgery. They are going to sedate me, and inject my hips with pain killers and steroids, to hopefully help me walk easier, and let my knee heal. If that does not work, they want to do a knee replacement. I had the right knee replaced 3 years ago, and one is enough!
Skittles looks like he is eager to open that pressie?
Take care, and post when you can!
LK

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

marti, that is an excellent idea about the fallen tree limbs! I wish we had trees here to use like that! Let me know how the lasagna beds turn out?

Victoria Harbour, ON

Judy, love the post...

My stay in the hospital was short, boys concerned and watching over me as are friends so not likely I'll get into mischief between all of them..would have (not to my liking) stayed in the hospital longer but with it being closed re Norwalk flu well it's better I left..didn't want to go in with one thing and come out with another...

Change of scenery although cold is still nice...between mom and I we really couldn't make up our minds about going anywhere..as it happened I didn't feel up to it and made all kinds of excuses..she's suppose to go with Aunt Muriel after the 16th...having an 80th for Aunt Muriel but she's hymming and hawwing because of weather wether or not she'll go...

Yep, excited about getting things organized...at lunch visited my favorite store, can you guess? You got it, Canadian Tire and bought another cabinet..I really think either Home Depot or Canadian Tire should hire me..think I know as much about product and putting together product than most of the staff...well if I ever want to change career's one of the men at Home Depot said I could have a job...my problem is that I'd spend all I make before I left the store...

Tonight I'll bring in the cupboard carton but will leave it until the weekend to put together...Mark who does flooring said he'd be at the house tonight to go over options so maybe he can carry it in for me..dead weight..lordy heavy as can be...

Judy, remember the birdfeeder that I have done in cement and design is done within in shells, if you've any extra's would love some...

Ooh look at Skittles, did I tell you Judy Suzanne found a home for her bird..she's visited twice..she's actually relieved because they aren't home much so big commitment..you are lucky to have the girls and Jacob around to help out...

Bet it doesn't even feel as though you've had a holiday....

OMG organize you? would mean another trip to Chicago area..lol

that's a wonderful idea Marti...recycling..I've often thought on a garden or two I'd love to get ends of poles or 4x4's and set in the ground at different lengths..much as you'll do...think it would really be adorable...

omg we're getting spring fever, already gabbing about gardens...

Linda Kay, didn't know you are going in for day surgery tomorrow, prayer and soft hugs coming your way...

thank you....

Tubby

Victoria Harbour, ON

Oh Tubby, so nice to see you post...

Are you gaining strength under the wonderful care Shirley is providing?

Glenview, IL

Oh My Gosh, Linda Kay, that must be some shot to have to put you out.
Will be praying hard that it does the trick!

Marti, a most excellent idea with the downed tree limbs. I always say i am going to do something with fallen branches.
LOL, with me tho, it always ends there, lots of dreams but never put into action, sigh. So will be looking forward to seeing your new branched beds!

Betty, ROFLOL, have i got shells! We could make a hundred or more of those cool bird feeders...Steve and Brian are down stairs...Drum roll please, Cleaning, yes cleaning and organizing the tools!!! Yep marking it on the calander even...Anyways, in their uh, purging of stuff, Steve found yet another tote bag of shells, I think we can open our own island of shells we have. So yep, when you come organize me, you can take as many shells as you'ld like...hahaha, actually got a story to tell you! LOL, but i know, it our turn to come to Canada, still working on that too.

How wonderful Suszan found a home for the Bird!! I am sure quite a relief. Skittles was wonderfully cared for and so, so spoiled!
She was even more thrilled when we got home, of course had to make up for a weeks worth of playing...She got a whole lot smarter too. Especially on the it's time to go home, lol open wings and soar away in a quick hurry...

Yes you and LK were right, she loved opening her pressie. It was a bag of Millet, and julia got her this Monkey toy, she was freaked out by it, poor baby was scared to death...But now she beats it up.

Yes, LK we were on vacation. i have to say, it was so relaxing for Steve. He needed that badly. he is going in for knee surgery on Tuesday. he's got a piece of myniscous(lol sp way off) that broke of and has to come out. They will knock him out too. LOLOL, I and the kids can hardley wait to see what that does to him. Last time he was so off the wall, we were in stitches and good thing he doesn't remember and I'll never tell, anyway I am hoping he will no longer be in the pain he is in, can't do stairs too much any more.

So while we were gone, julia took great care of the house and bird. They had a nice New years too. She was nicely surprised we got home by 5 on Sunday. Alissa, got a promotion!! She is now the Lead of the night shift at the nursing facility. So we celebrated that.

OK, story time...
Monday, All i did was laundry and take down a few christmas items, it was nice, Julia took down all the tree decor, so tree is now on deck.
Then Tuesday was a day of full running around. Another drum roll, We finally went and got our pictures taken for passports. Already had forms filled out, lol for almost a year! So went to post office, armed with our Birth certificates. Didn't know they didn't take credit cards. Well the passport guys says oh, your BC's are in too worn, you need to get new ones. They may not accept these. Yikes and yow! So we go to the County office to get new BC's...Steve gets his right away. We had to show our id's so out they come. Mine is such an ordeal.
Sigh, On my drivers Liscense, is Judy L S... The L, is from my maiden name, and Judy is shortened from the yuck, Judith...I changed it all when we got married...So the clerk says, I can't give you this birth certificate because these are two different people!! Huh!!..No it's me I say and explained name change...Nope she would not give me MY birth cert. So luckily we had our Marrige Cert. So she tells DH he can obtain my b cert because he is Judith's husband!! Head shake here...So, now she is working from an old system...Which actually only has my last name....this is because, being born 3 month early, mom didn't have a name chosen, They just called me babe, lol and still do...anyway, So this is now an even bigger problem because now the new system has My given name Judith Mary, which was actually added when we were married! And to prove that it was me I had to get my Baptizmal cert...So now the manager is called, re-explain the whole thing. Since I had my Original BC, they concluded it was me. But my given name was to be added on BC...LOL, hello, wouldn't have it any other way...since that is who i am. So now they are trying to add My name to their computer copy and it wasn't happening! Finally they get it to appear and Steve, not me gets my BC...LOL, this was a full days event! So he goes back with a check book and new copies of BC's. Asked the passport guy if the defferent names would be a problem and he said he didn't think so...Soooo Hopefully 4-6 weeks we will have our passports! LOL, Betty, then we can come visit, Tadah.
So you see, this is why i am such a late and major procrastinating person, i wasn't me until 25 years ago!! ROFLOL, no wonder why i am so mixed up!

Oh, I forgot to tell you too...We had a very nice visit with Deborah in Ga...What a sweetheart she and her Larry are. We stayed with them and it was so delightful to spend time with her. We chat on the phone all the time so doing it in person was even better.

So today I was suppose to work on my kitchen towel swap. I had a great idea, but it didn't work out, so was boohooing to Liz, and yay she helped me out with what i can do...LOL, actually i am copying her very cool idea...So away i get started, wehn DH asks if i can take an hour to help down stairs, grrrr...ok so 3 hours later, I finally stop and then of course, decided, hey...I am going to go say hi to my friends!
So now back i go to work on towels...i actually did get all the materials yesterday, washed and dried everything, got my pattern going and now just to get started on that first "practice" piece...Think once this"judith" person figures it out, Judy can go full steam ahead! hahahaha.

Oh yeah, I did miss someone...Waiing Hello sister DAWN!!! hey wishing you good luck for a better Job search...still got all my feelers out there too...goal for this year for me, getajob.

BlueMoon in Florida!

Nice to post.....

Tubby

Victoria Harbour, ON

OMG Judy, quite the experiences you have..sorry that Steve has to have knee surgery..

I'm thrilled you are getting your passport, no reason now you cannot visit, your rooms are ready..now if it's summer time, I'll having a fishing guide ready to take Steve out while we play..maybe we should text Kenny and tell him to get his and Liz's in order.....

Know you can't tell about the towel swap project you are working on, might be mine..lol..I can just imagine what mischief that Liz is getting you into..

So Steve has help with the purging? better check what goes, who knows what he'll throw away...

Mark came only minutes after I arrived home, made friends with Sailor so shouldn't be a problem for him on Monday when he comes to do the floor..gave me a good deal so I'm just soooo excited to have it done..his 1st question, 'why when there is nothing wrong with your existing floor do you want to replace it' oh/oh got caught...had to tell him 'just because I want to' did all the measurements, going to fix a few areas I want done..even paid him up front so won't have to worry about it..he did go on to say, 'please don't prepay everyone, you can get into trouble that way...I'll be back Monday but many other wouldn't'...don't usually but he's my best friends son, she'd get after him in a sec if he didn't show up..told him if it was storming just leave it but he says no, it will be done for certain...

Too cute, looked at the french cafe, saw all the food, said he better make his visit short so I could eat...said 'boy does your supper look good, so much variety, not like at my house' hated to tell him it was all fake food...did and then he had to have a closer look...

Tell you, people must think I'm bonkers...lol

It's been a long day, getting up at 4:30am makes one feel like they should be heading for bed...

Anyone got suggestions as to how to get back into routine, I've got days mixed up with nights and nights mixed up with days...best I can come up with is trying to push myself to stay up but that doesn't seem to be working...

Chatted long enough...must either go be creative or go to bed..lol

How can I resist another swap..was in not only today I signed up for the Valentines Day swap?

Will the staying up late work? do I get bonus points and get to sleep in...

Debbie, any news on the girls?

Baton Rouge, LA

Hello All;

Judy - Good to "see' you again! So glad you had fun in FLorida! I still think of it as my 'home state'. What a funny day with the Birth Certificate fiasco !!! Wow - must have been a government agency...huh !

Judy - did you visit with 'our' Debbie'sDaisy? Or another Debbie?

Betty - I'm praying some of the plants make it... DH says this is a "15 year freeze" and he is acting like we will lose everything.

He should know...as you all know...he is the original gardener...I am the beginner. I hope he is just setting me up for the worst. I hope I can get the energy and excitement back in me to start over if not. It was SO exciting to fill everything in the first year...but after all that work...I wonder if I can get motivated if it all dies....

They let the kids out of school tomorrow due to the inclement weather (and it's not even going to snow)....

But I still have to work. Praying Crissy for your one foot of snow and Snow Day ! LOL !

Would love a chance to get organized too.... !

Betty & LK - I hope you both are right re: new job... I was the 'old gal' of the work group. The others were 34, 34, 23, and 25. I enjoyed myself though...I can't lie...

We had a free dinner at this Brazilian Restaurant...at the IP casino. It was one of these places (my first time) where you eat from this wonderful and unusual Salad Buffet (I had Proscuitto, Smoked salmon, capers, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, etc.)....

Then everyone at the table turns a card to GREEN....and the waiters swarm the table with cuts of meat on skewers, carving off what you want...sirloin, pork, lamb, filet mignon, ribs, quail (I didn't have the quail)....they even brought plates of shrimp and tuna... it was delicious and we were stuffed....

Betty - you are getting ceramic tile in your kitchen? I want to replace some floors around here...

So who is visiting whom? Judy -- sounds that you are headed to Betty's....Betty...what are your plans?

Hugs to all,

Mary

Victoria Harbour, ON

Morning...

Brrrr it's cold out there...looking forward to parking the car at 4pm and not going out this weekend, just enjoy the fireplace and some more re-organization..

Mary, even though you've no snow, I would imagine the schools aren't equipped furnace wise are they to deal with the cold?

Tell DH that my gardens get covered with many feet of snow and yet come spring they thrive, so all will not be lost..I'm sure after seeing photo's of those beautiful gardens of yours
all the work that has gone into it that he is worried and with good cause...

Ooh don't hear much about Brazilian restaurants up here, in fact first time...food sounds wonderful..lordy you are brave to try such different foods...wish I could do same..

Mary, was telling Judy, I've been to visit her and Liz for 2 years running, both hubby's said they'd love to visit Canada, especially Georgian Bay so am tempting them..

As for the organization downstairs in studio and woodworking shop, it truly did need it, find I'm purchasing doubles/tripples of items only because I'm too lazy to go in search of them..this will help..the room used for woodworking never was finished, if the large metal shelving units were not so heavy think I'd put peg board up and hand 90% of everything..I keep plugging..

Don't you find at times you want to take on a project but find so much clutter than you just say, 'forget it'? I'm over exaggerating I'm sure...to me, few things laying around gets to me...lol

Coffee and toast is waiting..DG friend sent me package of scone mix, was almost tempted to make it this morning but think it will be a Sunday treat..making Ruby's applesauce cake then as well so might be a good time to invite someone for din/din...

LindaKay, thinking of you this morning as you venture off early for day surgery..hoping all goes well..I'll be watching for your post..

Nilwood, IL(Zone 5b)

Sorry all for not being on to even say hello. It has been a terrible time in our lives again. Scotty's son's wife passed on Dec 14th. We lost two very good friends and one other neighbor within one week and within one block of our house. I hope the rest of 2010 will be better. Haven't been keeping up with the posts but wishing you all good things. HUGS BEV

Victoria Harbour, ON

OMG Bev, wish I lived closer so I could give you both a big hug..dealing with death is difficult but near the Christmas season it's even harder...how's Scotty's son doing..any children?

I know you value your friends as much as I, I'm so sorry for your loss..was the neighbor friend the one you shared gardening interests with?

Prayers for you and yours....hug Scottie for me will you...

Snowing and blowing here..sitting looking out and thinking how nice it shall be to get home about 4 and stay in till Monday morning..that's my plans unless the Canadian Tire flyer entices me in on my way home...

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

Waving to everyone!!

Tubby I hope you and Shirley and everyone else are staying warm, this cold snap needs to snap on outta here!

Judy great to see you had a good time, and thank you for reminding me to cancel my Florida condo. ssssiiiiggggghhhhhh

I've got to get to work, I'll try to catch up later.

Oh, it's 15* right now and windy. The last time it was this cold here it was like -5 in 1886. Glad I work indoors :)

I'll see everyone later!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Oh Crissy you are breaking records weather wise...brrrr...weather is improving so lets hope no blizzards to contend with going home..you see construction guys working on the roads here in the - 20 to -30's and wonder how they survive..heart goes out to them..think I'd be staying home..

Barb have Norm's instructions here with me..tempted to pick up the wood and make it prior to the quilt guild calling to say my quilt is ready...Lord hates a coward right?

Nilwood, IL(Zone 5b)

Thanks Betty, I can feel your hugs. You are the best. The one neighbor is a 30 yr old friendship and me and her are like sisters. It was her husband. You couldn't ask for better ones. They are the kind to give you the shirt off their back so to speak. The other lady was a friend who had been in terrible pain and hospitals for 5 yrs. The other man was a friend but not close. Scotty's son had no children with Lisa. She has been sick with diabetes for yrs and open heart about 3 yrs ago. She was only 47. I gave Scotty your hug. It just thrilled him to pieces.
Snowing and blowing here too. We are to get up in the high 30s next week. A heat wave.

Oh Bev, Roger was 47..when I see my boys just a few years younger and still feeling like they are my babes I understand and see just what he missed...he must be devastated...

Some friends are just like sisters aren't they...nothing like having wonderful neighbors..every few days Bernice across the street calls to say she's seen my light on very early in the a.m. and wondering if I'm ok..am sure your neighbors do the same..almost a community health watch program without having to organize one..

I can see Scotty smilling..lordy his smile is what I remember most about him and how you could see the love and gleem in his eyes when he speeks about you..both Debbie and I commented on that...glad he's there to hug you...

Watched a few of my ministry shows this a.m. - funny, most had the topic of friendship and the importance it plays in our lives..I've been lucky to meet people such as you...

Hope the snow doesn't amount to much Bev..stay in/stay safe..
Sending prayers

Victoria Harbour, ON

Barb, looked at posting date of the envelopes..Dec. 28th or 29th - hard to read..sooo that's about 11days..know we've had holidays but lordy, out of all those envelopes 1 should have arrived...think you were the closest that I posted to...

(Barb) Manchester, NH(Zone 5a)

Bev even though we haven't "met" before, I send you my sympathies too. It's so difficult to deal with at any time and the holidays seem to make it so much sadder. Sending prayers for you and your DH to be at peace.
Betty, I got your package today and will be downstairs at the machine over the weekend. I also finally got the armchair piece copied so I'm going to try that one too. I ran out of ink in my printer and really didn't want to run up and down stairs for the directions!!!
LK hope everthing is going okay with your shots. I'll be sending prayers for no pain.
Bless you Tubby - it's so GOOD to see you post. I hope you realize how much we all love you and Shirley and we are pulling for you to get your strength back. Norm says Hi too.
Betty, Norm laughed at your comment above. He said "She's no Coward!!!". She will do just fine.

Saying Hi to Judy and Mary and Trish and Debbie and all. Hope you stay warm today.

(Barb) Manchester, NH(Zone 5a)

Meant to say Thank You - my head is in the clouds I guess. I also want to thank you for the afghan pattern I just love Mary Maxim patterns. Did you also send it to Jean in Maryland? I know she wanted it too. If not, I'll send one to her. Stay warm all....

Victoria Harbour, ON

glad they are arriving...it's about time..

Think I might have sent it to her..what's her dg name?
almost positive I did..

Mom's ordering another Mary Maxim afghan pattern, will have to send it to you..

1/2 row left and I'm finished mine, if all goes well this aft. I'll finish the 7 crochet blocks and by tonight I'll be getting cozy under it..I changed the dark brown to med. green..not as nice...

I've lots of wool left so my thoughts are to pick up an orange/brown for the area that red was used and do one up for Suzanne..her birthday is the end of the month - 31st so I'd have plenty of time..think I started mine a few days after Christmas ..know she loves homemade...

Tell norm I'm laughing..getting weekend energy back..trip to home depot either on my way home or tomorow morning will be in order..tonight got to put that tool cabinet together...

Good luck with your projects..should be hearing from the others soon..

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

Nope, no records broken, our temps aren't in the negative, they are still holding since 1886. I didn't know they kept records back then LOL. Yea, I would not want to be working construction, or on a road crew, or pretty much anything that has to do with outside.

Bev ((((( hugs ))))))

Lyndonville, NY

Betty, Carrie is at the doctors as I write this....had sonogram this morning and now at doctors for results. Stubborn girl wanted to go alone! Too much like her mother at times. Jeanna goes next week, Thursday.

Bev, my hugs for you and Scotty also.....pass one on to each other from me!

We have more snow falling, and no relief in site they say. Cold temps hitting tonight also....worse than the "20" we already have.

Shannon had PT yesterday...and hopefully I don't have to leave the house til Monday til next round of doctors / PT appts. with her.

I have been on the "rescue" mission for two days. Someone dumped baby kittnes...about 10 weeks maybe, 3 or 4 of them. Can't get ahold of them....and a puppy! Shane and I been calling him "Rocket" because he just shoots down the sidewalk.....he is white so blends with the snow! IF I find any of them and catch, will have to find a home....this one is very full.

Tubby, keep on getting strong for us....we sure miss you! Glad your back on and posting for us.

Debbie....waving hello to Judy, Liz, Mary....everyone!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Glad I'm not closer Debbie, know I'd be coming home with kitties...that's how I got the last 2..with all those you have couldn't they just blend in? lol

Why do people do such things, couldn't they drop them off at a shelter? Some heartless people in this world..

You certainly are being hit with snow...probably about 3' at the house so far but then the winter isn't over..

That's quick for Carrie to get her results isn't it? Guess Jeanna's anxious as well..

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)
