BUSY....BUSY......Busy.........

Busy...busy...busy...Christmas is for the birds!!!!
Or at least it will be now that I have finally finished a centerpiece for my dining room table....it is hard to see...and the light was not so good...so you may have to en-large to check out the birdies in it....AND my thrift store find of Birdie napkin rings...28 cents each...got 6! Now that is shopping girls....just think how many seasons I will get out of those tweet little things! I hope I can get to my First tablescape Thursday and use these little treasures!

I have been very busy...making a special gift for my BFF ( she peeks here sometimes...so I can not tell) BUT of course the first attempt was NOT good...so back to the fabric store.....VICKY...you sign off NOW you stinker...or I will tell EVERYONE how OLD you are.......

I also found 2 BIG packages on my porch late last night from my Tea Swap Sister...but I am trying...now I said TRYING to not open them until she gets hers in the mail.... ( ok...pulling on tape just a bit!

Yesterday we had a BIG ice-storm and everytime I would try to sign on...connection would take to long and re-set....so I am VERY behind on everything.....but I will catch up! And thanks girlies who e-mailed me to see if I was OK...or if I was out looking for Tommy or just MIA!

Tomarrow will be a better blogging day I hope...wait...sniff...sniff....oh no...grunging Vickis present....by the smell of things...it might be...back to the fabric store!
