To all those cooks out there who prepare meals during the week, I need ideas! The problemo is that I have one selective eater so I feel I am making two meals. Going to the grocery store today for this week's groceries.

Almost Football Friday

I made this for a friend's daughter for our football game Friday. Okay , my son's number is 15 so I didn't mind making it plus I wanted to practice applique'.

Swimming Party ...

Tonight our church is sponsoring a Bandstand with two christian bands, waterslides, chaos, etc. I will be there chaperoning while my 8 year old goes to a birthday party at our local pool. I made this little bag just for her (the birthday girl)and even made her a special pocket for her chapstick that she has to wear.She is very prissy.

The Gas Guslers Won

I tried to downsize...really! I bought a cadillac SRX (okay, I had a ton of points from my GM card) but I loved it. It was like a little wagon but higher off the ground. But, my hubbies' golf clubs wouldn't even fit sideways. So...I had to be practical. I traded it in for another Yukon XL but mine is the color of dirt. (Trying to save water and don't wash very often) I have three active children and tons of equipment. So now I am curious...What kind of car do you drive?

Happy 5-0!

Tomorrow we are celebrating my friend's 50th! I am giving her this art piece with two girls and a boy singing. This is perfect for her as she has the same and they love to sing! It is entitled "Church Choir"... Plus she is our church pianist and teaches our youth choir.

Endless Summer

These are for a mom's daughter who's hubbie is battling leukemia. The daughter goes every year on a beach trip and wanted to do these special towels for her girlfriends...so, the mom took a little stress off her and had me do the monogramming and I was glad I could. She brought them to me the day before my surgery so we talked about our scares...

Movin' On...

Thank you again for your very kind comments. I am indeed so blessed! Yesterday, I was invited to a friend's birthday party and I pondered whether to go or stay home and rest...but I finally got out. The gift was half a present..I usually make a bag but , well, this week was one for the records, so I stitched the monogram and gave her some fabric choices. She's pretty funky and stylish>
Oh, and thank Goodness for High School Musical 2 as my children had friends ask them to spend the night for HSM2 partys, etc. Hubbie and I were home alone...yoohoo...

This News Just In...

IT'S BENIGN!! PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW!!! Thank you for your very kind comments, thoughts and much-needed prayers. It wasn't even a cancerous mass but some kind if faschitis on the muscle. What a roller coaster these three weeks have been. Thank you again to my blogger friends:} And, my precious family!!!

Well...the Surgery is Over

A quick update because I am in mucho pain, but basically, it was neither a neurofibroma nor the schwanoma unfortunately. It looked to be a malignant mass but I won't know until 2-5 days. If it is not benign then I'll have radiation on that arm. Thank you for your prayers so much. And, mostly your patience with the bags if you haven't received yours. This was all so sudden. I found the lump three weeks ago and instead of slow growing it must have been agressive. Hopefully, this is isolated...just don't know until the path results come back. Back to bed and Percocet...

Off To Bell Bell Buckle...

It is hot as blue blazes and we are headed to Bell Buckle, TN> My oldest has been at a very hot high school football camp and tomorrow I get to see him...yeah...and watch the team scrimmage. I made this little top made of linen for the hot day. Red and white are our colors....

Back to School

We start back on Friday. The teachers are getting their rooms prepared for orientation tomorrow. I helped a little by making these window treaments for their doors.

Dog Days of Summer

Wow...it is hot! So I am trying to stay inside and sew and finish projects before my surgery. I keep forgetting to take pictures though of most things. I did take this pic of the bibs my niece asked me to make for a friend's baby shower....Back to work!
