A Little Too Busy These Days!

I'm feeling a little too busy these days.  Seems every day I have some dumb thing I have to do or some place I have to go that takes too much time away from what I really want to be doing.

Today I see my Dr. regarding my medication.  I know she'll let me take the final step when I'm ready.  I confess, I'm a bit frightened now that I'm down to getting off of it.  It's been a long road.  A very long, hard, bumpy and frightening road.  And now that I'm at the end, it's a matter of being "ready".  I assume that it'll be like everything else.  When I'm ready, I'll know.

I have not had much in the way of stitching time.  5 minutes here, 10 minutes there.  Too many interruptions.....no sooner do I start stitching and someone's pounding on my door or my phone is ringing or I have to drop what I'm doing and run somewhere.

Tomorrow, I hibernate!  In my house, by myself.  Just me and my cats.  We're supposed to get a few inches of snow tomorrow.  We made it 1/2 way through this Winter with no snow!  And I'm okay with that!  So I guess I'll let it be my excuse to have a "do what I want to do" day!  I will be running my sewing machine and I will be stitching!

In the meantime, I've added a few more of my mom's beautiful door pillows to our Valentines Day Shop:



These are both made from vintage handkerchiefs!

Well, I think I'll get offline now and squeeze in 10 minutes of stitching time before I have to get myself together to head out.  Have a great day everyone!  I think I'll be back to my regular daily blogging schedule now!  LOL!

Arrggg.....No Stitching Time

Ok, so I didn't get to stitching yesterday.  But I did get my floors cleaned and my laundry all caught up!  I finished my little Valentine Cat Dolls and will post photos of those soon.  They are so cute!  I did a bunch of other things too but at the moment, I just can't recall what it all was.  Whatever it was, it seemed to take me the majority of the day yesterday.

I did get the rest of our handmade cards listed in our Boutique:




At the moment, all I have left to list are my cat dolls.  I do know that mom has been sewing on more vintage hankie door pillows and she'll be working on some new Tussy Mussys today.  I'll be heading over there shortly and I'll make a few more cards.

We're not planning on too much more in the way of "crafty" things.  Mom and I really love stitching and sewing so we're moving in mostly that direction.  But I have always loved paper and I love making cards so there will always be a few of those in the works!

Old Fashioned Valentines

I didn't get to any stitching time yesterday.  I've always said, if I don't stitch, I don't feel good.  But there are days when it just doesn't happen for what ever reasons.  I will be stitching later today!

I was quite productive yesterday.  I sew up my 4 Valentine's Day cat dolls and now they just need stuffing.  That's at the top of today's "to do" list!  I also plan to pull out my steam cleaner and clean my hardwood floors.  And want to get my laundry done.  Yes, laundry is what I live for!  LOL!!!!

Before Christmas, mom and I made some Old Fashioned Valentines Day cards:






I also have a few new every day cards to add the shop which is also on my list for today!

I also listed this gorgeous Victorian Fairy pillow that mom made:

I don't know about anyone else, but I just love Valentines!  I think they're so pretty!!!  Ok, I'm off to stuff those little cat dolls!
