Sounds like a good Mother's day for you. I had a good one too, even though I couldn't have any of my 4 children with me. I got lots of calls, Facebook messages and texts.
Don't forget to post the pic of last week's bag. I can't wait to see it!
Won't be long now until your Chicago trip. The time is just flying by. With all you are doing, you're really going to need that time away! Are you still bothered with flying?
Well, I'm off to bed since I only got about 2 hours of sleep last night. Hope you have a fabulous day in your sewing room!
I am glad that you had a good Mother's Day Lois... I wish you could have had some of the kids/grands with you, but at least you have a couple trips to see them coming up.
Shoot - you are right, I forgot to post last week's bag here. I will do that this morning.
2 weeks from tomorrow, we leave for Chicago... Sooooo excited!
I hope you were able to get some much needed rest yesterday. How is your mom doing? I've been thinking of her and your family.
WOW! I have missed a ton!
So we need to get Tillie and Stevie together and let them loose IN YOUR HOUSE.. Stevie will show Tillie a thing or two....
I cannot wait to see her. Has V started making little outfits for her???
Can't wait to see what you make!!!! Love your plans.. I am a huge fan of HS. just a fun park!!!
Did i mention 16 days???
Whoot - 15 days now.
LOL Oh yah - I don't think that would be much fun... I think V decided on Lottie (short for Charlotte) for a name... I mistakenly wrote Tillie. She has not started on any outfits for her - but you know her well - and that wouldn't surprise me at all.
Thanks!!! I sure hope I can get everything made that I want to make... I am getting very anxious to get started.
Cannot wait to see you again my friend.
Sounds like you had a good day yesterday
Thank you - I did. I hope you had a nice weekend, as well.
Totally forgot to add Happy Mother's day on here!!!!
Hahaha... Happy Mother's Day to you too.
Ha Ha!! I took plenty of breaks - like one after each bag... I actually did feel better afterwards. I've been a real lay-about for the last 3 weeks and it feels good to actually get out and move.
Kate and I walked to the ball park from her apartment and then walked back past her apartment to go to the restaurant we chose. All in all I walked at least 3 miles, so that was good for me.
I love that Minnie tank!
I am so glad that doing the mulch helped you feel better. And the walk sounds great! I bet it felt wonderful too.
Thanks! I am excited about the Minnie Tank... I don't normally order my clothes from TDS, but I just loved that one!
I LOVE THAT TEE!!!!
That's all.
Nini
Hahaha... Thanks Nini... Me too!
Good morning my friend! I hope your knee is feeling better this morning....how was the workout?
Love that Minnie tank. I am hoping to find something while we are in Chicago....I have a list
Have a great day, I gotta get ready for work. 15 days!!! Two weeks from tomorrow!!
Good morning Miss Suzi... My work out sucked.
I tried to do my squats and I couldn't do them. So, I did everything but those. My knee feels fine... but the minute I try to climb stairs - it is the most excruciating pain. I just don't know what I did to it? And why it only bothers me in that situation? I am so sad. I am doing my best to rest it now and let it heal. It has to be better before Chicago!
Thanks! I love it too! I cannot wait to wear it.
I hope you have a great day today! So excited that I will be seeing all of you in 2 weeks - I can barely contain myself.

I worked all day yesterday in my sewing room. I was able to get a nice chunk of this week's custom order done. Then I was able to cut out and quilt auction bag #7 and wallet #3. I am making progress. WHOOT! I did put a full day in my sewing room... I worked from 8am until 4pm, with only a short lunch break.
My knee is still bothering me... I am so upset about it. I was able to do my heavy lifting yesterday, but I could not do my squats. I tried - but the pain was so intense, I figured I was better off to not do them at all - rather than injure myself further. I am so annoyed because I was planning to move up to the next set of weights yesterday... Now I fear I will have to go back. Oh well - I need to continue to tell myself that this isn't a race. I am now babying it, praying it will get better soon.
I made spaghetti for supper last night... Now that I've figured out how to properly roast spaghetti squash - I LOVE it! Super delicious! The first time I made it, I didn't like it at all - so I am happy I've found a way to like it.

In trip news... BFF and I have been making progress on a few minor/necessary purchases.
The first is these:
http://www.amazon.com/Tide-Travel-S...=1399977949&sr=8-1&keywords=tide+sink+packets
I cannot go to Disney in August with out them. And they no longer sell them in stores. Sigh. They work excellent for washing the Frogg Toggs in the sink (they smell musty after a few days) and they are also great for washing out swimwear.
The second is these:
http://www.amazon.com/iBRIGHT-LLC-P...&keywords=cell+phone+portable+battery+charger
Suzi borrowed me her's last year - and it was a life saver. Even though these aren't the exact ones we purchased, we did get something similar.
I have a very short list of items I still need to buy.
1. I still need to get a new pair of black Orthaheels... Believe it or not, I have lost weight in my feet - and mine from last year are huge and floppy on me.
2. Black shorts
3. Red shorts
Both of the above are to coordinate with planned outfits.
4. Possibly one more tankini top for my swimsuit. And a second pair of black bottoms.
The above are not necessary, but since I only wear Lands End swimsuits, they are a little thicker than normal swimwear and take longer to dry. I will be fine for the water park days, but I am concerned I will have to wear a wet suit if I want to swim at any other time. So, the more I think about it, the more I think I better invest in a 3rd suit.

I am at Target all day today...
I hope you all have a wonderful day... Sending out prayers and good thoughts to all of my friends here on The Dis.
D~
It's so something I would say. "starting to get energy...spread 10 bags of mulch." 
Glad she had a great birthday!!
Or any other day, for that matter. 
So, I plan to take it very easy today and try my lifting... I'll see how it goes and adjust as necessary. I may have to go in search of my knee brace and wear it for a while. 
They each have 2, which will be pleanty.
