Happy New Year

Wishing all my friends and their families a very Happy and prosperous New year.
Its going to be hard to remember to write 2009 now. Every year I have a little contest with myself to see how long it takes me before I mess up and write the wrong year!!!! Great fun, last year I got through to March!
We have been hit very hard with lots of snow so far this year, and they are calling for more tonight. why does it have to snow when you have to drive into work? I had my one day of rest this week, Christmas day, and now we are on the mandatory overtime. they are offering to those who wish to work 10 hours on Sunday so that we have fulfilled our obligation. I have already worked 25 hours ot this week so far, so lets see how many I can put in for the new week which starts tomorrow.
We had a wonderful and very quiet Christmas, kind of tough being away from the ones you love and care about, but at least we talked with them and I pictured myself sitting in front of their tree with a nice cup of hot cocoa.
I hope Santa was good to all of you and you got what you really wanted. I love hearing what everyone got, so feel free to share.
I got Ray (my son) a handmade , 50 x 60 double sided Homer Simpson and family fleece blanket, which has disappeared into his room! It was the best gift he received so he said! Thank you Sue from Cozy Covers.
So now its on to a New Years resolution....hmm have some thinking to do before Midnight 12/31/08..
Again happy New Year Everyone!

Happy Holidays Everyone of all Faiths

Yes I am wishing Everyone the Happiest of Holiday Season! We have but four days to be naughty or nice, and then we will know how good or bad we have been by the gifts that Santa brings us.
I have been naughty, I have let my team down because of personal business of craft shows and work. I have been naughty cause I haven't supported the www.esmarts.etsy.com store. I have been naughty because I haven't supported my fellow esmart members, Van (altho I did try to buy a dream catcher from him), Theresa who I owe a deep apology to and want to pay her back for what she did( I wish she would answer my email) Jamie for not saying a hearty congratulations to a position she well deserves, and for cutting her off yesterday while we were chatting (Well my daughter from NY called and we talked for an hour, then I took a nap) To Dani who thinks I am mad at her (who could be mad at someone who has such a lovable pet named Oscar) Helen who also deserves a hearty congrats on her position. Anna Lee who with love in her heart sent me SO many goodies and a Birthday present, I have not properly thanked her. My list goes on and on, I don't mean to be naughty, it just happens because , well it does.
I plan on working today (actually I am supposed to be at work now) loading the last beads that I made before I started doing craft shows. If you get a chance and are a bead person who needs the last min set to make a lovely piece of jewelry, please stop in to my Etlsy store and have a look. its www.whimsey.etsy.com.
So we do have tons and tons of work and plan on being busy doing ot till sometime in January. If you don't see me, you know where am ....working.
Again a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all, and I hope your list was full of nice things you did and you get lots of goodies. I expect coal, which is of no use as I don't even have a wood stove to burn it in!

Happy Holidays!!!!!!
