special order

BEARLY time to do a post or anything else for that matter! I've been hustling my butt off..

beary busily playing santa bear paws...

trying to get all these little bruins done
in time for people to have them for Christmas!

These sweet bears are for my friend LINDA on flickr, who lost her daughter to an illness 10 years ago. the RememBears are made of her daughters favorite t-shirt and I think they turned out really cute.

Linda will love them, I hope.

I have 7 more bears to go to complete the last order.. then I have two bears to make for my mother out of my grammies kilt and a bear to make for my MIL out of stuff of her husbands.. and then one for my daughters boyfriend out of his mothers belongings.

Ive completed and mailed all my swaps!! but I still have to make something for my three best friends and have quite a bit of shopping left to do.. my friends may end up with stuff I didnt make for them this year and I dont think my christmas cards are going to get done...

Once again I ask.... FAIRY GOD MOTHER where are you?????

but I'm happy none the less... because.. I have a sweet little baby grandson! and a house full of thd cutest kittens!

I will catch up with you all one day soon!!

I'm so glad you keep coming back here.. dont ever stop.. because then what would be the fun in blogging?!

hugs for the day!

morning blogville!

Here I am... first thing in the morning.. hair uncombed.. teeth not brushed yet.. (dont get too close!) make up under my eyes!! I look like an old grammie pie!!
OH well, I guess thats what I am now.
so busy busy busy here. I know I keep saying that im way behind.. but believe me when I say... I am WAY behind. I really need a fairy god mother! wont one of you sweet girls pop over.. I need help cleaning, cooking, wrapping, putting a tree up, decorating outside... eiy yie yie! reading blogs, making bears, finishing up swaps... I really dont think I will get to make cookies this year and am seriously considering ordering some!!!! Not really sure that I'll get christmas cards written and sent this year either.. but I did buy some.
I'm hoping to get christmas tree today, so that the 900 cats I have tearing through my house can climb it and knock it over! I still dont even know exactly where its going to go as I have no where to put it. the bird is taking up the spot that the tree usually would go.
I will work it out.. yup I will... some how!! Im going to look for a large artificial twig tree. hoping that Daves Christmas store will have one.
Okeedokie dear blogger pals.. Love ya'all! so sorry I havent been leaving comments, but I have been passing very quickly through trying to keep up with whats going on in all your worlds! have a delightful sunday! Now off I go to the sewing maching!
HUGS!!!!!!
