Hello my fellow bloggers!!! more pansies to plant..(read below)
you ask why I took a photo of my dogs bones..well I was in cleaning mode..(trying to get the house all tidyed up before my surgery tomorrow)..and his box was feeling awefully heavy..so I took out all of his bones..and do you know how many he had? 27..it was looking like a graveyard in that box..so now he has 2..and his rawhides...he loves to chew on his bones...and he will search in in box for just the right one to chew on...sorry I just had to post this..we are keeping better track now of his bones..I had no idea my dog was a hoarder..lol..
I decided to hang up this wonderful quilt that Kimberly of my brown bag studio made me last year..I just don't want it to get dirty sitting on my table..so I had an empty spot on the wall and here ya go..
looks pretty nice there I think..will change it out come christmas cause thats where the stockings get hung.;)
I just got these latest sizzix in the mail today..can't wait to encorporated them in my stitching..I got the wave, sand or snow, and grass..
This one came in the mail just the other day....
so I made this last night..:) I have another one to make the colors are just the opposite..it will probably be a cherry pie..

this will be going in my etsy shoppe shortly..:) I have another one I am working on..it has a sheep and a bunny in it..will start that one tonight..
well its been a busy couple of days..I mailed off 5 packages of goodies to my blogging buddys and then took Tucker for a walk..it was such a good walk too..my knee didn't hurt me and neither did my blisters...then I cam home and worked in the yard..burning my weeds what little there was and then worked for an hour next door because its all creeping back and I don't want it in my yard..and I planted my little pansys..they look so nice. (see first photo).
Today I scrubbed the house top to bottom..cleaned, mopped and dusted..I can honestly say I would rather clean toilets then dust..I hate dusting..and its my own fault cause I have so many treasures to dust..so suck it up buttercup..and I headed in to town for a hair trim..oh she does such a cute job..wish she could style it everyday for me..and it needed to be trimmed too..now I can sit back on the couch and recover with a cute do..;) still gotta finish vacuuming and putting clothes away..don't want to have to worry about anything while I am laid up..and now hubby won't either..he can just do the normal cleaning and cooking..and tonight he is bring home Thai food..oh yum..its been a while...told him to get something healthy for us..I have lost more weight..I am down 15 pounds now..and I can't tell you how great I feel....my clothes fit better..I walk taller..I just feel great..feel like I lost 30... well I don't know when I will be back to blogging..hopefully on monday..cause I will miss you all too much.. I have hubbys lap top..so I will use it to surf and leave comments..:) thank you all for the wonderful support and prayers you have thrown my way..it truly means alot and I love you all and love the kinship we all share here in blog land...we are a unique, caring group..and I am glad to be a part of it with you all.;) take care and I will talk to you again soon..:)

  3. Gina,

    Hope things go well with your surgery and you're back to your old self in no time. Hey, while you are recovering, you should check out the June issue of Create & Decorate. There was a penny rug mat in there and I thought of you when I saw it.

    Recover quick.
