Christmas was wonderful! I spent the night before at Jocelyn 's house which was interesting....We had 5 year old Kylie sleeping in between us - which wasn't so bad, but we had three dogs on the bed as well...Poor Fritz couldn't find a place to land to his liking...and he kept walking all over me trying to find a place to sleep. We survived that just fine.... People started dribbling in soon and by the end we had 14 people there Such fun....I love it when they all come together...of course Susie wasn't there physically but we "skyped" her so she sorta was there.. I had been sewing - actually quilting, pot holders for everyone. My sewing skill are rusty as all get out these days....but I just loved the fabrics I got to work with,....for Steve and Sheree I had a "hit the gas" medley with fabrics with race cars, helmets, black and white checkers, bright stripes and tires. - since they are both so into car racing...for the girls I found fabrics with food on them....one was all fruits (bananas, pears, apples, blueberries, raspberries and oranges; the other was all veggies (green beans, red onions, garlic, corn, potatoes, and peas)....how cute was that!!!! They each got a fruit one and a veggie one. I also covered plastic hangers with all the leftover yarn I've got - I found out how to knot the yarn...makes a great hanger to use for slippery items that tend to fall off. Hardly put a dent in my yarn stash, however..and I made 14 of them!!
On other fronts, not much has been happening.....there is a New Year's Eve party downstairs that I will probably attend...bought a bottle of wine for the occasion...so i had better go, rather than sitting in my apartment and drinking it, huh?!
best wishes for the New Year, everyone, and may it be filled with good fortune and good health!
