Figuring it all out...

Good Morning!! (or it's actually afternoon by now) We were up all night with our 1 yr old son Mason. Both boys have a terrible cold, and none of us got any sleep at all :( .... Please forgive me if I make no sense today! I have several photo turtorials on sewing and even baking that I really want to share with you, but I just have no idea how to post it here just yet....So, I'm not ignoring you all, I'm just slowly learning this blog stuff. Once I get them up here, I look forward to hearing how you all do if you try to attemp some of my projects!

I purchased two more sewing machines this week. Both are Singer Machines, One is a 1970, that turned out to be an "OK" deal, and the other I pick up tomorrow. It is a vintage Singer machine, and it great working order, or so she tells me from Craigslist. I can't wait to get it home and try it out. You know I will have pics for you! Ok, back to researching how to get photo tutorials on here!! Hope you have a wonderful day.....Stay warm and healthy!

Black Friday Shopping...

*yawn* Well, good morning...

Today is Black Friday, and normally the craziest shopping day of the year. I decided last night to participate in it. My mother and I got up and out the door by 4:45am, and headed directly over to Jo-Ann Fabric. We expected a line a mile long, and what we found was just the opposite....not a soul to be found, not even an employee!!! So to kill time, we drove to the other stores in the area just to see...Wal mart was a mad house, so we didn't even attempt to go in, Big Lots, wasn't bad, got a few great deals on toys for our boys, and Best Buy...was a joke, I have never seen so many people in that store...well, EVER. we left quickly! Went back to Jo-Ann's and were still, alone! Finally about 5:45 am people started arriving. We decided to get out and line up, and as we did, everyone started to follow suit. Got alot of great deals, a nice rotary cutting mat size 24x36 for more than 50% off at $12.00, a really great OTT lamp for the sewing table for only $19.99, and yards upon yards of blizzard fleece for 2.99 a yard, and Snuggly fleece for 1.49 a yard! So worth it! I intend on making pajamas, and socks for all of us....Don't worry, I will be posting photo tutorials of it all soon, so you can do it too! But for now.....It's time to get through the morning, and on to nap time for the boys....You can bet I'll be napping too!
