Honest..I am trying to get some sewing done! I started quilting my christmas ornament table topper, but the day is full of distractions.
First was a visit from the UPS man. This was inside the box he delivered:
Ohhh..what IS it??? NO WAY!!!!
A new Kindle from my daughter, son in law and hub!! Wow...now I just need some to show me how to work it! lol
Soon after, Mr. Mailman stopped by with a package. Inside I found this..from Shellie...umm..didn't she just see me yesterday and gift me with a great new cutting mat??
Hrrmph...pic is sideways..kinda like Shellie and I! lol So, inside these delectable wrappings are:
She made me this gorgeous wallet!!! Inside is filled with all kinds of goodies..my fave part? The 9 cents! lolol
Next was this..and she is sooooooooooooo in trouble for this one!!
She gave me this Pumpkin Patches quilt!!!!! I am just floored. Can't even tell you how floored...and honored. Shell..thank you..you made me cry...jerk!
Last but not least in any way, shape or form is this:
Today is my birthday. I wanted a blizzard on my birthday. For weeks I have prayed for this blizzard. Everyone around here was not happy with me and the forecast looked like I wasn't going to get it. This morning was cold, but sunny. People called me and laughed at my blizzard. I got texts laughing at my blizzard. God heard, though, and look what He did...just for me!! Who is laughing NOW?? Thanks, God!!!!
Lots of wonderful distractions there.
ReplyDeleteI have a Kindle and absolutely LOVE it.
Happy birthday.
It sounds as if you have perfectly good reasons for not sewing. Love the quilt Shelly gave you.
