FREEZING!

It is freezing here! We woke up to a beautiful snow yesterday! I love snow days, even if the children are all gone! It is so nice not to HAVE to do anything. I read all day and watched tv. No matter what your political party, it is an exciting time for our country.

Still looking for a desk for my sewing room. Looking is half the fun!

Welcome 2009!!!


2009 came in with a bang. I chaired the Debutante Ball, on the 3rd, and could tell New Year's Eve that I was coming down with a wicked cold. As they say, the show must go on!!! I managed to hold it together until Sunday, and then became really sick. It is just now starting to clear up! So, I lost a whole week of cleaning up after Christmas! Our house is a wreck, not to mention the comings and goings of 4 adult children! I have major cleaning to do!! The good news is that son #2 moved into his own condo over the weekend! We have loved having him here this last year, but I know he was ready for his own place! Now we have to get used to an empty nest all over again!


I spent the better part of yesterday cleaning out my sewing room! Sweet husband promised me a new sewing table if I could make room for it! Now I can't decide what to get! I need something that will hold a sewing machine and embroidery machine! I keep looking at the Pottery Barn office furniture? It looks so nice, but don't know if it will be functional! I am open for suggestions on tables!!

I am in a preppy swap!! Hopsy over at Monograms and Manicures is hosting! I need to get out and start looking for surprises!
