I just sold my first crocheted hat & scarf set for $20!

I know its only $20, but I am just amazed that someone wants to pay actual money for stuff I made. I have orders for 4 more sets.

good for you.
Hey it is 20 dollars more then you started your day with. Can you post pictures of what they look like?

OK - I'm off, Kellie if you don't hear from me by 11:15 call the authorities! (ps - I have your phone numbers with me in case)

I tend to get REALLY lost. 2 weeks ago I was driving my son best friend home and was supposed to get on the pike. I drove down route 2 to Boxboro before I realized that route 2 doesn't hook up to the pike (for those of you not from the Boston area, that's about 45 minutes out of the way - with 2 kids with Asperger's Syndrome - in the car for an EXTRA 1.5 hours, on top of the 25 minutes it was supposed to take - oh lord help me)

I say we make April freap mammogram month. What you say freaps?

I am due NOW...also gyn and this is the year I should have the dreaded......colonoscopy... I can deal with all the other stuf, but that one is really going to take a kick in the butt or something...I also need a checkup this month for my thyroid, and I should have a complete physical....

I am such a procrastinator...

You need to do it. I also hate all that stuff but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Kellie, I hope you hear from your doctor soon and hope you and Rhonda have a fun time chatting today.

I am all for April being mammogram month since I already have one scheduled for next week. I do need to contact my new insurance to make sure they'll pay for it since I won't be 40 until next year. I did have a baseline one last year and ended up having to get another one and a biopsy. Lucky me, I have lumpy b**bs. I had problems with my insurance paying for the second one last year so I never even went in to get the follow-up that I was supposed to get in Sept. I know that's bad, but when you're struggling to pay bills it's hard to justify money for additional reassurance.

We still haven't got any official word on the state budget so neither DH nor I slept very well last night. I really hope for some good news soon. We're going bonkers waiting.

Does anyone know anything about Old English Sheepdogs? We have been offered a pup for free!! All I know is that they are huge and hairy and it is the kind of dog that Nana from Peter Pan was. We have to decide soon if we want it or not. Since my beagle, Ellie, died last fall, it has been so weird and quiet around. We assumed we would get a new dog this spring but were leaning towards a golden retriever or lab. We can't spend a lot of money on one though so are also willing to look at pound puppies. I don't know if we should hold out or take the giant furball. I love big, hairy dogs but they are so high maintenance and it would be very expensive to feed. I read that the males can get up to 200 pounds!!!

good for you.

Sure!

The quality isn't all that great. It's really hard to see the beading on the center of the flowers.

 

[SHAYMARAYSMOM]

THANKS FREAPS
Rhonda just left. You guys are so good. I love the basket.
It was great meeting a freap. So is just as sweet (well sweeter) Than I thought she would be

 

[pperfectmom]

Alesia-those are sooo cute. I wish I could do some kind of crafty type thing.

Kellie-glad you freaps had a good time.

 

[SHAYMARAYSMOM]

Well I got sick of waiting and called the DR's office. The nurse called me back to let me know the DR is in sergury and wants to speak to me. So I guess she is the only one that can give me the answers

 

[SHAYMARAYSMOM]

Alesia- they are so cute!

Do you sell them on E-Bay??

 

[pperfectmom]

I hate waiting! We are still waiting on word of the budget so we'll know if we need to start looking into moving out to Montana to live with mtblujeans(you were offering weren't you? ). So I'm right here playing the waiting game with you Kellie. I hope we both get some good news this afternoon.

Yay! Marna is moving to Montana and getting a Sheepdog!- You can own SHEEP! It's brilliant!

See! The Sheepdog is an omen........a good omen!

I made it back without getting lost! Kellie it was GREAT to meet you - say thank you to John for those great directions.

Freaps - Kellie is "Wicked" nice and her hubby is very sweet. Gato was pretty darn handsome too...

We talked, we laughed, we had coffee and I kept pointing to things going "hey, I got that in the mail too... "

Her daughter is beautiful and she has very proud parents.

Kellie, I will be here for you if you need *anything*.

Rhonda

I'm considering it.

Right now I'm just doing custom orders. I'm thinking of starting a little business, but I can't come up with a name. I was kind of thinking along the lines of A&F Designs or something. Any suggestions?

Love the new Johnny pic. did you see what it says on it. OH MAMMA

I am thinking if they keep me waiting any longer I am going to storm the office.
