Three Weeks and A New Adventure

Today is Monday, November 9, 2009. It looked like we were going to have some major storms today. So I checked the radar and sure enough it appeared that there was a huge one coming. Rolling dark clouds were here, but nothing more than the clouds. It went north of us.

I received my winnings from Brenda of Wicked Wool Gathering! These packages made my whole day! That little hanging picture is the cutest. And her slippers are wonderful. I love them! So I had to order a pair for my mom and hubby's mom. Then when the guys seen them, well they all wanted a pair too. So Brenda has agreed to make slippers for the guys, minus the pompoms of course. They are so comfy and really warm. I am sure this family will be back for more. Thank you again so much Brenda!

Hubby didn't make it to SC until a little after seven this morning. Needless to say, he didn't make it in to work. However, this is the last trip that he will make by himself. When he comes home in three weeks, we will be moving there. So tomorrow I will close up the pool, no matter what the temperature is, it will be closed down for the season. Oh to think tomorrow will be the last day that I have to vacuum it this year! Doing the happy dance!

I figure this week I will work on sorting things out for here and there and then the following week I will start the packing. We will leave Thanksgiving Day, there shouldn't be any traffic, everyone should be where they need to be by then. We decided this because of the young driver driving through Atlanta. Atlanta is a bear and I really dislike driving through it. Hubby is going to see about another route to go around it. Hubby will drive the U-Haul and tow my Jeep, son in the middle and I will drive the truck with the trailer. Doc and Lady in which ever vehicle they like.
Then off for our new adventure.

I WON So Excited

Today is Monday, November 2, 2009. It was just a gorgeous Fall day again today. House all opened up and smelling so fresh. The sun was shining and the gentle breeze made for a terrific day. These are the two roses that I do believe will be the last to bloom for this season. However, she may surprise me again.

I did get the pool vacuumed today, there is now a piece of PVC Pipe that has extended the reach of the vacuum to over half the reach of the pool from the top, no more getting into the pool. The temperatures this week are supposed to get down into the 40's so maybe this weekend I can close her up for the winter.

Also got six more loaves of bread made. Made my favorite the butterscotch with heath pieces. Oh it is so yummy. Had to get it into the freezer before it was all gone. hehehe

I was so excited tonight, I got an e-mail from Brenda over at Wicked Wool Gathering and I WON a pair of these awesome handmade slippers. These have come just in time for the falling temperatures. THANK YOU so much Brenda! These are just to cute.

Brenda will be listing her slippers in her Etsy shop soon. They are VERY reasonable !$! They will make terrific Yule gifts. I am thinking that even the guys would like these, well minus the pom poms of course. LOL

Here are a couple of more things that I finished up.

Rag Quilted Pillow with Lavender

Peace Dream Pillow with Lavender

I hope to have all of my new items listed tomorrow, if not Wednesday for sure. Have a full day of cooking tomorrow and have to go shopping, so don't know how much more I will be able to get done.
