HAPPY THANKSGIVING.....

One time, I think in a school situation, we were asked what is the one thing for which you are most thankful. Now...it's hard to narrow it down to just one thing (or at least it was for me then.) At this point of my life, though, I'd have to say that one thing would be good health for me and my family, because I believe if we have good health, we can deal with anything else that comes along. May you and your family and friends be blessed with a day of good food and fellowship AND good health, and may this official start to the holiday season be filled with peace for all of us.

Turkey Day is nearly here...

Thursday is the big day for most of us. We will celebrate on a weekend early in December as our family can't get together until then. (I do a small dinner for hubby and myself on Thursday, though, as what would Thanksgiving be without turkey and pie leftovers??) I found a cute website with lots of Thanksgiving ideas.....decorations, crafts kids can make, coloring pages for the kids, recipes, etc. I think I may try to use some ideas from there for our celebration when the kids come here. If anyone wants to check it out, click HERE.

Now for a painting update from yesterday....WE FINISHED. I need to run to the store early this a.m. to try to get new curtains as the old ones just don't work any longer. Then it's into the sewing room to clean-up so I can get some serious sewing done today and most of tomorrow. I have a Santa panel and promised my daughter I'd use it to make a wall-hanging for her. (Photos will follow when it's done.) Also, I have a Christmas gift I didn't start yet for her....can't say what it is because she knows my blog address and I don't want to spoil the surprise.

Better get moving....can't waste a minute between now and Christmas! LOL
