I’m here!

I feel like I’m waking up from some kind of dream/hallucination in which I had major surgery to remove my appendix while 4 months pregnant; went to two Thanksgivings; celebrated my husband’s 30th and my 29th birthdays; took care of a child with a cold and a double ear infection; wrote a statistics paper and took a final exam in said class; then to celebrate, Hazel, John, and I all got sick sick sick with a nasty intestinal bug while our basement flooded.  Sounds like a bad sitcom.  That’s what I have been up to for the last month.  I hope the beginning of your Holiday Season was a little more festive than mine has been so far!

But the good news is we are all healthy (knock on wood!) and my class is done and nothing of import got ruined in the basement.  It’s snowy out today, our christmas tree is glowing with red & white lights, and Hazel wants to watch my Frosty “DDD” for the hundreth time - who can refuse such Holiday spirit?!  So, in honor of my newfound holiday spirit, and because it’s better late than never, I have posted some NEW items in my etsy shop - just in time for all you last minute shoppers.  I’ll even throw in free priority shipping on all my items until 12/20!  I have to thank fellow crafter/etsy-er The Old Oak Tree for the nice shout-out on her blog today - thanks for motivating me to post!

I think this quote from Hazel’s favorite ‘DDD’ pretty much sums up this post: “Messy, Messy, Messy!”
