what are you doing for the holidays
does anyone have any special plans to do anything wonderful for the holidays this year. we will do the usual thing with thanksgiving starting it out,will watch the macy parade as always cook a nice dinner(and no it will not be turkey) and most likely son will cook, he has become quite the chef now days. if he ever decides to not be a teacher he would have a career in being a chef, like me he enjoys cooking and baking, i know that sounds odd a youngman wanting to make thanksgiving dinner, but he has done the majority of it for almost 5 years now. then will watch movie together with the family, this year is going to be a bit harder as this will be the first time that my mil has been here since last year, as many of you know she lost her leg in may of this year and has been hiding out ever since, but with thanksgiving in just a few weeks she is going to have to break out of her depression and come visit, it is so sad that it came to her losing her leg, but she also needs to know there are worse things. but thats another story altogether., after thanksgiving is over i start my baking, i normally make about 15 different kinds of cookies although this year am going to cute back a little bit,. i have so much to do and no time and especially no energy LOL. we put our tree up about the 2nd week in december so we can enjoy the tree for the holiday season. this year i hope that my mom makes it to christmas, she has not been feeling very well, even worse than when i saw her so it is going to be stressful for the family. i want to thank all of you my friends who have been there for me during this time. we can only hope and pray that mom does better enough to get through the holidays. so now i have a question for you all, what do you do for the holidays, do you celebrate the christmas season or hannakua(sp), or any other holiday , i know there are many thing and many tradtions in this world and i would enjoy hearing from you about what you and your family does. well tomorrow is coming soon and i just heard on the news we are under storm warning, high winds and alot of rain. not a good combination as most of the trees here still have most of their leaves. we ourselves have lost 7 trees ti high winds so am off to get to bed before we lose power. so would love to hear your holiday traditions till tomorrow my friends hugggggs


my weekend
hi everyone this weekend was fun, i had to work in the morning doing the warm up america, stayed a couple of hours then left as hubby and i had plans and since i did not get payed i figured the 2 hours i spent besides the squares i had made was enough.we went out to lunch at a place called harmons it is a resturaunt/brewpub. they have excellent food there and not really too expensive.



http://www.harmonbrewing.com/index.html


this is the link if you would like to check it out. we enjoyed ourselves and stayed for a bit. also went to a place called e-9 is a old firehouse turned into a resteraunt/pub, is a cool place also. after we were out and about for a while my son called and said mom and dad could you please come home now. i said sure whats up, he said very sneeky like, nothing just would like you home. so we got home to find that he had grilled steaks and made fries and salad for dinner. was a nice suprise to a good day. today i crocheted for a while am working on a afghan for work, something which is not the greatest thrill in my life, but i enjoy my job so had better make a effort to getting it done lol, is going to a pretty one although am only making it lapghan size, will be perfect for curling up in a chair and either crocheting or reading on a nasty winter day. speaking of which it is pouring down rain here, also the wind has kicked up, just a really nasty night out, my dd is out and about as usual. last night she had gone to a halloween party and she did something i am very proud of. when she got to the party she met up with friends who had been there for a while, well after speaking with them for a bit she decided to mingle a bit and was soon stuck talking to someone who she did not know,nor did the party host know this person. she tried to avoid the couple as they appeard to be drunk which my dd does not do, she soon was stuck behind this person and was kind of feeling trapped so she pushed her way through and told the hostess she was leaving, the girl having the party said i don't blame you, it had gotten way out of hand, well she left and went to some other friends house and watched movies for a while, as she was coming home she saw that the place where the party had been at had gotten so far out of hand that the police were called, but she avoided all the problems of it by leaving, this is something i have talked to her about endlessly, and is nice to know she listened. i sure don't mind her having a good time and knowing she is level headed enough to leave a place that was out of hand made my night last night and today still., tomorrow is halloween we use to dress up for the time when we handed the candy out, but lately we don't although son has a darth vader costume so might have him go to the door if we even get any trick or treaters. but if we do i am ready although tomorrow will go to costco as i need to get some rice crispy snacks. i hand those out along with the candy and the kids love them.

i so can not believe it is going to be november in 2 days, i need to seriously think about what it is i am going to make and buy for christmas, we got our names on crochetville for the winter swap list, i have a lady who i have never talked to, sure would like to though, and the lady who has my name e-mailed me and we have chatted a few times. this is the first swap i have done, and am looking forward to it. also want to get some things for friends who have a wish list?raok, i am going to be sending out a few this month. i love to do it, but alas the postage is killer, i really would love to send to others in europe , but would cost me a arm and leg i know. but after the 1st of the year i probably will send something to a good friend in england and maybe one in sweden. but no promises as to when LOL. money is tight as i know it is for many. this time of year i wish i was rich, i would make so many peoples lives happy. as i would adopt families who have little or none, it breaks my heart to think that a child never das a little lovey stuffed animal. i think i am going to make some more little animals for the red cross and also the police and fire departments here,. so little time to do things so little money and so much to do LOL, i hope ya all have a wonderful week and stay safe if ya are out there tomorrow night with your little trick or treaters. till tomorrow my wonderful friends HUGGGGGS

i was so suprised today when the doorbell rang, thinking it was my hubby leaning on the doorbell i opened it and was about to say hold your horses. when it was the ups guy, delivered my yarn i had bought from rodney. i love this yarn, i bought some dark blue, some denim blue, both 2 cones of that, then also i bought some cream colored from rodney. well rodney being rodney, he also included a cone of extra yarn as a thank you. which i love. i need to e-mail him and tell him thank you for this too. i crocheted a little bit on the snow flake afgahan have to have finished for work. talked to my boss and she said a lapghan will be fine as long as i can get it done soon. also she wants me to make a freeform flower scarf. sheeesh as if i don't have enough to do lol lol, but she is right that is something which would get people to sign up for classes. speaking of classes i had better get my check soon. joanns corporation has had it for almost 2 months,i would seriously like to get paid., i was not aware that they were this slow until i talked to some of the other instructors. well on the other hand i also got a application to work at michaels. as a crochet instructor. i have the right to work for who i want according to my contract with joanns so i might just do it if classes do not pick up. tomorrow am going to meet with crochetingmom from crochetville, i have a ton of yarn and am giving her some of it. also a few others are sending me some postage money and i will send them yarn too. i am tired and hurting tonight. i went through almost 9 big boxes of my books and only kept 4 1/2, so roughly got rid of half. this little house is bulging at the seems, defintely time to declutter, well on that happy note am off to crochet some more squares for comfortghans these are for celestialseasonings aunt who has been diagonosed with breast cancer, i hope and pray all goes well for her. please include her for a short prayer when you read this. well till tomorrow my friends, i bit you adeu. hugggggggs

i am so angry at my sister


i found out today that my sister who lives in virgina, called my mom up(the one who is not suppose to have any stress or nothing that upsets her because of her heart) and she actually yelled at mom saying how she should have been told(i called and left a message) how she wanted mom to come there,not happening, also when mom told her to not yell at her and how if she was so concerned about her why did she not come here and see mom, well her answer was this. i have a ticket reserved , mom asks when is that for, sister says well when you pass away i will have to come home for the funeral and to bring home what is "my share" of the estate. well lil sis , ya got a big suprise your not getting anything because there is nothing to give you. mom has a few pieces of jewelry she is leaving the grandaughters and gr grand daughter but for us kids she is not leaving anything of value(monetary) (which is what my sister is so concerned with, which is great, pass it on to the next generation. well to make a long story short, mom told my sister to not call her anymore, to not come visit after she dies, as the time has past then for doing what is right. i pray that my sister has a change in heart and that she will realize that things are not important. only people are. things have a way of just being there, but a person who thinks that she can not come while mom is alive , and that she has reservations for when she dies,. well all i can say is it is a good thing she lives back there. sorry to have to vent, but i needed to get that out. she makes me so angry my chest starts hurting. and i worry that i will also have something wrong with my heart, some people never learn and they never change, is sad, thanks again for letting me vent, thats why my friends i have are so awesome, they let me vent(i do the same back to them when the need is there) till tomorrow my friends huggggggs


saturdays fun
today, hubby and i went to the tacoma dome to the holiday gift festival, something we have been trying to manage to make it to for over 5 years at least. well i can tell you, it was not worth the 21 dollars it cost me to park and admission. i saw a lot of nice things, but i saw the same thing over and over again. must have had at least 10 different people selling jewlery alone, i saw some awesome beaded italian shawls, they were not priced real hugh,only 65.00. which considering all the time that went it to it was wonderfully low. but alas i have not 65.00 nor would i have any place to wear it. my getting "dressed up" consists of me wearing my cords and a long sleeve top. , but it was nice, i saw a few handmade knitted and crocheted hats, some awesome felted ones, which i explained to my hubby how it was done, he says why don't you make one, those are cute, i then told him they were made out of wool, so he said that he could see why i could not make them as i am highly allergic to wool, break out and swell up. not a pretty site lol all in all, if i knew then what i know now , would probably not gone as it was really not worth the price of admission and parking. but at least now i can say i went to it . but we had fun anyways, is nice just the 2 of us getting out and about. we try and have a "date" afternoon or evening , every week. maybe thats why we have been married for over 26 years and together over 33. i think it is important to have fun and not all work. well on that note i will say goodnight hugggs to you all

projects
i am making another poncho using some awesome chenille yarn i bought from rodney on e-bay. he rocks lol, so does melanie, she also has some fantastic yarns , and while i want to buy more, really need to use what i have. i told my hubby today that i am going to bag a bunch of it up (yarn) and take it to the sisters of st. anns. i gave them some before last year an i called and talked with the sister in charge of it, she said they had already used it up, so i asked if they wanted some more, and she of course said YES, so next week am going to destash my craft room again. so i can destash my dining room and garage and even into the living room now lol. i need to stop buying so much yarn and not using it. is wasteful i know. but i so can not help myself, i am a yarnaholic and i am not to proud to admit it lol
hugggggggs


update on mom
my mom came home from the hospital today, but the word was not good. she DID have a "small" heart attack and the doc said that her heart is in really bad shape. she has congustive heart failure and will have to take it easy from now on, well my mom does not know the meaning of the word take it easy. she has always been a worker and always on the go, so this is going to be very hard for her to not stress and to take it easy, she is still having a hard time breathing and still has chest pains. she has been on kidney dialisis for over a year now and it is taking its toll on her. we are going to go and visit this saturday, she has some things she wants to give to her grandkids, i told her mom, please don't talk about that now, but i guess if she feels better giving the kids what she wants them to have then it is better for her to do it. less stress, but right now i am extremely stressed. i already lost my dad 3 1/2 years ago, and now knowing how bad my mom is , makes it really hard to concentrate on my life. thanks for letting me vent, i must be strong for my family, but is hard to do hugggs to all of you

problem solved
today after my class i came home and called the chevy dealership and talked to the shop boss,. i have known bill for over 20 years and i told him what had happened. he said that was wrong, i asked him about the problem, he says well that year car has a governor or something on it so you don't rev it to high, i was like WHAT???? he said why? i told him i had had the car in for service and that they could not find out why it was doing that. he said come back in tomorrow and he will refund my money. so now i feel better still doing business with them. i like to use the dealerships even though they are more expensive, but now i fell better thanks for letting me vent; huggggs


i am mad as hell
yesterday took my sons car in for service and to have the dealership fix the miss in his engine. well they said they could not find anything, so hubby drove me there and i picked up the car, well i drove it home and pulled into the drive way, reved the motor up and the miss is still there i can not believe that they could not find it. i mean all it took was for me to rev the engine up to about 2800 rpm's, and on top of this they gave me a bill of over 80.00. 30 of which i don't mind paying as it was for lube oil, filter and inspection. but the other 50.00 i am plain pissed off. will be calling and talking with the service manager for sure tomorrow. i have been taking my cars there for over 15 years and for them to do this. well like i said i am pissed. so wish me luck when i go battle with the chevy dealership. oh did i forget to tell you, i payed for this with my visa card and tomorrow morning i am calling and putting a hold on the payment. that is just wrong. thanks for letting me vent. i am tired now and going to bed as dd just got home and i need to get some sleep as i have my class tomorrow. until then huggggggs


i am over run with tomatos

i am overrun with tomatos, if i ever tell anyone i want to have more than 3 or 4 plants. please gently grab me by the hand and lead me away from the garden department. this year we had 14 plants, yes you read that right, 14 plants. well last week i picked all of the rest of them as it is that time of year that we could get a frost at any time and sure did not want any to go to waste. well i weighed them. i harvested(and this was after 2 months of eating) over 80 pounds, yes pounds of tomatos. i dream about being over run with tomatos, last night i dreampt about a giant red tomato chasing me around saying i am going to make you into sauce LOL LOL LOL, which is exactly what i am going to do with them lol.

tonight visited on the ville' with some friends. also saw that the raok i sent to my friend donna was well liked when she wore it today to michaels and a woman came up to her and said can i pet it. she was lie EXCUSE ME???? then the woman laughed and said that sounded stupid didn't it, i meant the poncho. LOL LOL LOL, she also told her she would like to buy one so donna gave her her e-mail and when she contacts her she is going to contact me and let me know. i think i can sell them for 40.00 plus postage, what do you guys think. now remember this is a chenille poncho. here is the pic of it. i am excited. i hope others see it and want to order too. i figure this might be a good pattern to make and sell and so far from what donna told me, they liked it down in california, home of the most picky people LOL, just kidding you guys lol
tomorrow have a class, this lady wants me to teach her how to do the ripple stitch, as she is making her grand daughter a huskies UofWa, blanket. will be a good session as it is one on one. those don't pay as well but they are nice that in the fact i can spend more time with the student.

happy birthday to me :)
today is my birthday and i am going to enjoy it as much as possible lol. yesterday was a bear, but got through it and am not about ready to get some sleep as later today hubby told me that he has a few suprises for me, well me being the curious kind am wondering what kind of suprises that could be as i really hate not knowing what he has going on. normally i love suprises but today was different, on friday i hd to do my usual bill paying crap that happens on paydays and then when i was making my bills out, found that i had forgotted to do 2 things. one was get my drivers license renewed and also to get my car licese renewed. believe me both were bad. i hate having my pic taken, but i balk at spening over 60.00 for car tabs when it should be only 30.00. somehow the state is able to charge us more money as we live in a urban area and the sound transit program is eating up the extra money like a baby with candy, well enough of the whining. i am just tired is all. lol
on a bright note, i am almost done with my shrug.is going to be so pretty. is navy blue chenille and i am sure i mentioned it before, you all will have to forgive me as i am so tired, i keep falling asleep at the keyboard. so am off to bed. hope ya ll have a wonderful day and enjoy the weekend.take care hugggggggggs
