| LAP TOP FIASCO |
WEll, we finally got hubby his lap top!!! YAY! Sounds good right...... Sure it is! lol
We went to FRYS in Arlington....... picked one out, and drove the hour (almost) home........... Then realized it was refurbished. So, drove all the way back, and they were rude, so we got our money back.
Then drove another 30 minutes, and went to Comp USA.............who were wonderful!! Thank you Chas for all of your help!!
So, we have the lap top....and its amazing!!! I got it all set up for him last night, and this morning he left to go out of town. HE TOOK THE BLASTED THING WITH HIM..... AND I WANT IT!!!!!! LOL I really like it........I have never used one before.
Ok, so I know what I want for Christmas! PLUS a digicam.
I think I've been good enough this year! hahahhaha!!!
But, all kidding aside. I'm so glad he got his LapTop!! He never buys anything for himself, and he works so hard. He definitely deserves it. He has not complained YET about my yarnaholism. He did recently say something about my WIPS. I thought.....and now it b egins!!! lol
I tried to explain to him, that as crocheters, we tend to do this. I know that some of you are better than others. ( I'm terrible!) But, we always tend to have some WIPS. It's just a part of the whole crochet craziness!
On another note! Miranda just showed me this great English Tea Store. Take it from me, the prices are sooooo good, and shipping is very good!
THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will be adding this link to my links shortly! Ok, I'm heading off now, I hope you guys are having a great weekend! Take Care! |

| ~My Trip To OK~ |
I must be crazy........... I stayed up all night on Tuesday, 5 30am Wednesday, left my house for a drive to OK city. I got their at 9am. We visited my brother and his family. It was a wonderful visit! WE swam, and played, and talked forever! I didn't go to bed until 5am Thursday morning.........As I said, I must be crazy!!!! It was all very worth it! The drive was nice, the scenery beautiful! The company lovely!
Now, I was planning on leaving Wednesday night, but just couldn't leave, lol!! I did leave Thursday night at 1030pm, and got home at 2am. By 3 am I was out cold.
I think I'm still recovering!! hahahahhah
With all of that said, I will be driving back up there! SOON!!
Now, I'm trying to to figure out how to be in Kansas (centerville) by the 14th, have the puppies cared for, and be back on the 15th. (girls start school on the 16th) I just hate the idea of driving over 8 hours, for such a short time. BUT, I really want to see my nephews calf in the fair!!!!! Hmmmmm...what to do, and how to do it.
Now, while I'm that close to a friend ( she's only 3 hrs away from where I need to be in Kansas) I would love to meet up with her. 3 hours........hmmmmm.........If I go all that way, I have to add that in to the mix. ( I would be crazy not to!!) I have met her online, and she's the greatest! Now, any ideas.........I really need them.
Oh boy, If hubby could come with us, I could drop them off, go have lunch with her, and still have plenty of time with the family!
Oh well, I guess I need to figure it out sooooooon! I'm running out of time, lol!
Ohhhhh, and little brother wants me to stop by on the drive up............. I want to do that toooo...............OHHHHHHHHHHH BOYYYYYYYYYY this will be a fun trip if it works out, lol!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| ~Change of Plans~ |
First off, I want to thank all of you crocheters out there! I have gotten to learn some nifty little tricks, and really expanded my crochet knowledge. To all of you who post your patterns, and share your excitement, and just share your love of crochet...THANK YOU!!
WE have a Square~A~Month swap going on at the 'Mania. Miranda had wanted to participate, but it had already started. So, instead of waiting for 11 more swappers, we started swapping with each other.
Well, we had a swapper that had to drop out due to circumstances out of her control :(. Soooo, 2 fellow Maniacs swooped in to save the day! Thanx Kathy and Miranda!
So, now we are both in the main S~A~M, and also have our side swap going on. We were chatting the night and have decided to just re-start our swap. lol!!! We both have chosen some colors, and are starting over!
I chose (with her help, lol) Drews Monet Afghan. Now, His is absolutely beautiful! I hope I can give it the justice it deserves. I am using Carons Simply Soft in Autumn Red and Bone. (so not actually Monet anymore, lol) Now, instead of using one strand, I'm using 2. I will post pics when its completed and she has it! I'm thinking this may take a while............
