I haven’t been here much lately. \u00a0 Sorry for the lack of updates but I’ve been racing away on all my Christmas projects. \u00a0They are coming along very nicely but I’m beginning to get a tad winded. \u00a0My parents are coming down for Thanksgiving and I thought I could save a trip to the post office by stuffing their suitcases with Christmas present for them and the folks down in San Diego. \u00a0I guess that was a tad ambition because I don’t think I’m going to get it all finished in time. \u00a0I have to remind myself that it’s ok, I can still mail it, but still, I’m feeling a mite frantic to tell the truth. \u00a0Add to that the fact that my little work space is undergoing a major overhaul and things get crazy fast. \u00a0Kevin as finished Phase 1 and Phase 2 to my new craft table and it is perfect. \u00a0Unfortunately, craft supplies are still floating about in limbo as I haven’t had time to sit down and find a new home for all my stuff. \u00a0So when I want to work on something, it means shuffling piles and boxes around to find some open space. \u00a0 Of course there is also my crafting curse that isn’t helping. \u00a0I have (no exaggeration here) six presents that are languishing at the 90% done stage. \u00a0Instead of finishing them off, I toss them aside and begin something else! \u00a0So that’s six more piles to work around! \u00a0Deep breath. \u00a0It’s still November, right? \u00a0Plenty of time…..plenty of time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
