Its been such a long week for a short week! I had monday off.. but I'm not kidding when I say its been a long week! The kids I work with have been out of control!!
but.. just got to get through tomorrow.. then its the weekend! I'm dont really have anything planned for the weekend, except that I need to look through my clothes and figure out what I'm taking to florida. I should dig out a suitcase and see if I can fit everything in one! I guess I can take two carry ons.. my purse and a tote bag. and you know somewhere there has to be room for some little craft projects!
Have I told you how much I hate flying???? OH GOD!! I hate flying. I have to talk myself into it, by coming to terms with the fact that, if its my day to go, then its my day to go! eiy yie yie... the flying part about ruins the whole trip for me! So, other then trip planning, I need to get a few groceries. I'm planning on NO Shopping this weekend! no wasting money! unless.... someone twists my arm really good.. (I hope they dont!) I have a few swap things to work on, so I'm hoping to hang around at home and play here. I need to make a pinkeep for a special swap that Im taking to florida with me! I'll be meeting a flickr and blog friend, Nancy while I'm down there. And, I'm doing a little swap with my flickr and blog pal cindy owens. So, those two things and puttering around the house will keep me busy!Do you like the little easter egg friends I made? I've had visions of easter eggs in my head for a couple weeks! I guess I skipped right over st pattys day. I guess I'm just not into st patricks day.. I really dont even have any great decorations for that holiday. I have a leprechan that I made a few years ago.. that might be all!!! so when I put away my valentines and my snowmen.. easter is coming out! I have the cutest little easter decorations! I'm always so excieted to get them all out and see them again.. its like seeing old friends!! I made these ATCS for the atc swap at the faeriezine group in flickr land. but I might have to make others ..because I dont know if I really want to part with them! I especially like the bunny and baby one. Well, its late and I'm pooped out. . both couches are taken in the living room! my youngest who moved out this summer, has moved back home. I wanted him too so I'm glad hes here.. but hes sleeping in my spot!!!!!!!!!
Oh.. a quick egg hunt swap update:
one girl had to drop out, so we're at 37 girls. And I've recieved two boxes already. Cindy O's were the first to come and then Mahalas.. and Ive got to tell you ... whoever gets their eggs is going to LOVE them! dont forget to send your return postage money with your eggs girls. And... next week brings us to the end of the month.. so youre going to need to get them in the mail within the next 8 to 10 days! no later then that... please be on time with this swap. OK... I'm sooo tired.. I've got to get off this computer! GOODNIGHT!!
Yikes, I don't like to fly either. I just keep reminding myself how much quicker it is than driving. That, and a good book is how I get through it. Have a great vacation. Hugs, Susan
ReplyDeleteI don't fly either. Not any more. Look at all those cute easter goodies. Sure wish you were coming close to me Viv!
ReplyDeleteThose pinkeeps are the CUTEST! Did you make them? ADORABLE. Personally, I hate the packing more than the flying!lol! Hope you have a good Friday!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Would you believe I have never flown and I truly do not want to now. I love all the Easter things and The Bunny and Baby ACT is so sweet....m..
ReplyDeleteI must have missed that you were going to Florida. That sounds good. My feet are so cold tonight!
ReplyDeleteI got out a bunny when I was cleaning up. He's all alone, so I may haul out some friends to keep him company.

I love your photos-- I am into Easter in a big way myself this year.... I've got bunnies on the brain.
ReplyDeleteRecently I bought a small felting kit-- you've inspired me into giving it a try. Ok, that and the kit was only $1.50. Do you have somewhere on your blog a tutorial on how to do it? I guess I COULD read the instructions that came with the kit, but thats no fun! I was thinking I'd make something else than the 3 angels the kit makes-- cause I'm like that lol... do you stuff them? or is the whole thing made with the wool stuff? So many questions...so little patience! lol

Ehhh!!! These are just darling!! The pin-keeps and the cards.
ReplyDeleteThe fabric on the pin-keeps are lush, and the bunnies are just plain fab!!!
You have energy , girl! :) Lucky you:) Lydia
Loved flying when I flew all over the world. Would sleep in any position for survival. But, I'm older, and don't skrunch up as well. I still love take-offs, and love sitting window seat at the wing, when in coach.
LOVE your Easter creations!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my cute cute creations VIV !!!
ReplyDeletelove the pinkeeps and the ATC's and the baby idea too wonderful -- makes me want to make some Easter atc 's also - as far as flying -- a big ole scardy cat here -- flew last just before 9-11 - and had flown a good many times before that -- but the last time was white knuckle and PRAYERS time !! many prayers - Swap eggs almost ready - Kathy - ga
