Good Morning Everyone. We had a pretty strong snowstorm come through yesterday and everything is white again. This is going to be a lazy weekend for us. What are your plans?
The chat room is now closed. Thank you for a great morning!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 229 of 229I am with you there Kim.. I want to lose 20 too..
I have lost 10 so far.. it is really hard for me... I have always been really skinny.. actually too skinny.. I can admit it.. but since meeting my husband I put on 50 lbs... so I lost 10 of it all ready.. just would like to lose about 15-20
Right now I feel self-conscious all the time. If I could lose 20 pounds and get back to my pre-Eli weight, I would be so happy.
I have a brand new tread mill in my bedroom.. and it sits there.. I have to make myself.. it really is awful..
Do you know of any good fabric stores...
Trying to find the right fabric for that quilt I am trying to make..
Sorry, I'm back. I had to build a track for Thomas the Tank Engine's friends.
I don't sew at all, wish I could. I really need someone to make Sophia's quilt.
JoAnn's always has a great selection. There is a World of Fabrics here too.
I think it is going to be such a beautiful quilt. That is such a great idea. How is your family doing with the loss?
Getting into shape says it all for me... I need to exercise!
My MIL is sewing my OHGW quilt, so am very lucky! I DO want to sew on my machine more. Wish someone lived by me who sewed so we can get started doing projects together. Crafts are so much fun when doing with others!
I am getting busy putting cookies in and out of oven (one bad thing about cookies!).
Happy, happy day!
I don't sew... It is my husbands step mother who is going to help me.. Actually KyLee does better then me..LOL..
My mom is having a hard time.. she canceled Christmas day.. she was having a really hard time.. got sick.. but wasn't really sick.. nothing would go right.. she would start crying..
They are suppose to have it today.. I am going to call in a little while.. she was having a hard time yesterday.. I was talking to her while waiting to pick KyLee up from the airport.. but she is staying at my grandmother's because she won't leave her alone.. she will go next door to her house and do laundry and whatever.. they got an intercome system so my mom could hear her at all times..
It is just hard for her...
She never complains and she never breaks down.. so she probably is just having that moment..
I love baking, your house must smell wonderful! I wish I could sew too. I love to scrapbook, but you are right that it's so much more fun to do with someone else. My MIL backed out on doing the quilt, said she doesn't have time...that's another story. I really miss my husband's step-mother who I considered my true MIL. But you can't always pick your family.
On the hundred good-wishes quilt.. I have two people who do quilts.. my mother's best-friends sister does quilting.. she has the big machine.. I am having my mother ask her how much she charges.. and then my grandmother told me yesterday that a friend of hers does a great job.. she requilted my Great- grandmothers quilt.. for my grandmother.. I will let you know how she does.. but I am wondering if I should wait and have Isabella's name ( the name she is given in China) in the middle..
Thanks Alyson for the post...
You are soo sweet...
It is so hard when you are facing the holidays for the first time with someone missing. My FIL came for Christmas this year and he and Fran were here together last year. No one said anything, but she was very missed.
Or the comment on my post .... sorry...
LOL
Alyson.. you are getting close... Are you getting excited yet.. or just kind of waiting it out due to how long it has been...
Yes it is hard.. I think it is easier for me.. I don't live around there.. but the first time I step foot into their house.. I know I am going to loose it...
Just thinking about it makes me tear up...
He was the best... Everyone says that about their Grandfather.. But it is the truth.. EVERYONE loved that man.. His birthday is the 3rd... Going to be hard...
Yeah, if I would just exercise, I would be just fine too. I need to get off of my butt. I would love to have a treadmill, but I worry that I'd start off with a bang and then stop using it. I have to do something though. I don't want to be carrying this weight anymore.
Well I really enjoyed chatting with you .... I am so happy I got to have two Sat. to chat... now I will only be checking in on Sat. morning to say HELLO.. back to work on next Sat... YUCK...
I so hope that my husbands new job will lead us in the right direction and make it so MAYBE I can go part-time or not at all when Isabella gets here... I can't wait to have that 4 months off with her..
This was my first Christmas without my Dad, my Mom's first alone. Very hard. We still "weep" alot.
We are getting closer to our match day BUT, the prediction is still 6 to 8 months which is what we were told in July of 2005 and then at our LID date in January 2006. Groundhog days!! Never been closer than 6 - 8 months! Our agency is great, but nothing they can do either. We continue the wait... I think we are beyond any excitement, our families don't know what to say and we are tired of trying to explain. One small price to pay! All in God's time, not ours to control. :)
Have a great weekend too Kim. I hope he gets that job!
I'm sorry for your family having to face Christmas without your father.
I agree with the wait, there isn't anything we can do. You guys should be getting close now.
Tell Ford hello for me. He leaves great comments.
Okay.. well I am out of here.. Got to go get showered so KyLee and I can go find some fabric.. if not.. we will wait..
John and Nick are playing games on the Play Station... then he is going to take off and run some errands... go get my rings and earrings cleaned.. I love that.. they look WONDERFUL after..Just like new...LOL..
What are you doing today Kim..
I don't know what I'm doing today. I think I'm going to try to get some photos developed and catch up on my scrapbooking. I'd like to get out and make a snowman with Eli too after his nap.
Do you do digital scrapbooking or just the paper stuff.. I am new to scrapbooking.. love it.. it is soo neat.. I have watched one lady she is making all of these digital ones.. and then every week for a year or every day she is going to put a picture of her new little one it there... I am not that great at it... I have started on the scrapbook for the 100 good wishes quilt... it takes sooo long..
Okay well I will let you go...
I need to get busy.. stop by and see my 8 month LID picture....
Thought it was cute...
Love my fur babies...
Have a WONDERFUL Day...
Great chatting today! I am off to take my shower. DH (Ford) is actually running to the grocery store for me (he is absolutely the best man in the world!) His sister & family are coming today and staying through Monday - have to get moving!!
Cookies are done and taste delicious...
Alyson
I do the paper. My husband has bought me a digital kit, but I haven't looked at it yet. I am way behind on my books, so I need to sort through our pictures and get them printed out before I lose them somewhere.
Have a great time with your family Alyson! Happy New Year to you.
Have a great day too Kim!
Have a WONDERFUL New Year's.. to both of you..
Hugs to you both..
Good morning. We are having a slow morning out here. No real plans this weekend.
Hope you have a nice weekend. Have fun making a Snowman with Eli. That is one of my dreams with my boys. I just think that every kid should make one. Hopefully next year we will go up north and make one with the boys....
Take care and be warm. It is going to be in the upper 80's today! Ugh!!! I wish it would get colder!
