Hello! I'm back, well okay "I" didn't go anywhere but this site was unavailable for a while - as we all know!  This was a better week at school, I took Friday off though! LOL! I took it off because I found out Tuesday night that my Dad was coming on Thursday afternoon!  I rarely hear from him, he forgets my birthday, doesn't email back - makes one wonder what's going on right?! Well, not really! That's just the way he is I guess! He came and we spent all of Friday together visiting with one of his old school friends who lives in the area, took him by where I work, we tried to go to Blockbuster to rent the movie "Cars" and "Talladega Nights" - no such luck!  He left Saturday, which is our house cleaning day so.....we cleaned and then went out! LOL!  My sweet husband decided to go shopping with us (we're still shopping for Breanna's winter coat - LONG story there!)   When he goes with us shopping anywhere we usually wind up spending a LOT more money - weird isn't it?!  He got a good deal on his cologne too at a perfume store but guess what he did.....he dropped it and it broke!  Boy was he mad! LOL!  I was thinking "I'm glad he dropped it and not me"! LOL!  I also got my dress for the Christmas party/cruise we're going on in February!  It's beautiful and I can't wait to wear it!  I have never bougth a dress with sequins before but these look okay! LOL!  So, what have I been sewing?! Not much! LOL! I did take in a pair of dress pants for my daughter - does that count?!  I've been working on making other gifts too! I found a website of a lady who does scrapbooks and have been working on a scrapbook for my sister-in-law who is in the middle of building a home. It's been one issue after another with this book but I think I'm almost done! LOL!  I also made another little star shaped scrapbook for my Grandmother-in-law and will put Breanna's pictures in it too! So I've been crafty, just not so much with fabric but more then that, just not so much! LOL! Michelle
