Ya Know What???

Time flies even when you're not havin' fun!!!!! I STILL don't have all my Christmas stuff down and put away!!! I did put my bigger Christmas tree away. I put it in my bedroom closet. One of my friends here just cracked up when I told her cause it's still decorated!!! It wasn't an easy feat to accomplish!! I put a big garbage bag over the top.Then proceeded to try to pick it up.It's one of the kind that's in 2 pieces,so of course I picked it up in the wrong place.I was determined so once I got it back together,we were off to the closet.Some things on the tree,like garland & lights got caught on other things along the way. No problem,I would just swear like a drunken sailor,throw them back on the tree and keep movin' fast as I could,that thing is heavy & way taller than me.So we made it to our destination,the corner of my walk in closet.Now just think how far ahead I am for Christmas 2012,my tree is already decorated!!!! Although I may need a new lighted star tree topper. I didn't want to lift the bag and look,but it did kinda hit the top of one of the door jams on the way to the closet and it wasn't a very good sound.But the 4 ft. one should be easier if I can find a place to put it!!!
I want to offer you all this beautiful purse. I bought it online from a place called MYHABIT.I didn't know why I was getting emails from there until I figured out that it's a part of Amazon.So one day they had name brand purses for sale and boy were they selling out fast. So anyhoo I saw this purse,I loved it and it was $95 but the sale price was $42. I have needed a new purse and since I never get out to look for one and like I said I just loved this one,I bought it.Couldn't wait till it got here!!! Seeing it in person,I loved it even more!! BUT and it's a big but I can't use it.It's too big for me (sad face) won't work with my wheelchair or to carry if I'm using a cane.I have to use a smaller purse to wear across my chest,which you can do with this one,but with "stuff" in it makes it too heavy for me. I still love this purse and the color of it is beautiful,so rich of a red that it's almost neutral to go with everything.They do take returns,but it's for credit and not to get your money back. Besides it's too late now since they have a 30 day policy and I've been keeping it up on eBay. BUT NOBODY looks at it there.Sometimes only 4 or 5 people.All I'm trying to do is get back what I paid for it.Whoever bought this wouldn't be disappointed!!!! Did I read the measurements of it when I bought it??? Yes I did,but I had stars in my eyes and it didn't seem to big for me.So if you'd be interested you can click on my eBay button to see more pictures & do the BIN or contact me and I can sell it to you directly.
I also did a NP that I have listed on eBay.It's a doodle design from Robin of Bird In The Hand Primitives.Since I always have to do something different I made of some little penny tongues and stitched it to a very primitive half circle grapevine wreath.I like it,I hope others will too.I haven't punched for at least a year & a half,so it took me a long time,trying to keep control of my hand which has a mind of it's own.Gotta do more punching!!! I'm also working on hooking a couple windowsill rugs.One is finished,in neutrals and started the other last nite which will be darker.
Are ya tired of reading this book I've written yet LOL????? Well The End.
