No turning back now!

If I post it, it will be gospel. If I say I am going to make this...



... cute little advent calendar before Christmas then I will be accountable to all of you in blogland and I will do it!! Granted it is not rocket science! The picture is from the quilt store in Grandbury,TX where I bought the little cheater panel. It could probably be knocked out in a day. So I have given myself more than 2 months to complete a day long project, should be adequate even for this slacker!! Actually to be a proper and functional advent calendar it would need to be done by 12/1 yes? Oh dear the deadline looms..

We had a quiet weekend. Why is it still hot? Blonde rascal made the mother of all messes Friday night when he pulled the cushions off the couch in his room, every blanket within 100 miles and a lifetime of stuffed animals all into the living room so he could watch TV and camp out. The only person this caused problems for was Missy. You see "her boy" is normally asleep in his room with the door shut every night and she is denied access. So Friday night she went back and forth from our room to the living room trying to decide which sleeping situation was most comfy! Saturday morning we made chocolate chip pancakes, which I might add I have decided I don't like. Blueberries yes, c.c. no. It alters the taste too much. I love me some pancakes, so I don't want to veer to far from the natural flavor. Besides chocolate chips and syrup...not happening.

I have some good, fun stuff coming up this week. I think I have devised a plan to get my sweet new sewing machine. I'll divulge my scheme later in the week. Also, I had mini dental implants done for my genetically missing eye teeth 3 weeks ago. They popped some temporary teeth on there while the "real ones" or permanent ones were being created at a lab in North Dakota. Well the real ones have arrived and my appt. is Weds. I may have to have a funky before and after picture post! Yee haw! And no telling what other foolery will pop up that I will feel inspired to share...the sky's the limit! Oh yes, AND I am midway through the sewing room organization endeavor which will require some more pictures! Terribly exciting stuff around here. So if you are having trouble sleeping or something pop back on later in the week...and I'll bore you back to sleep!!

Could you make me one too in your spare time- you know right between your implants and pancakes! That is a really cool design, and I still can't quite wrap my mind around the fact that you- Brooke- my life on the wild side friend- likes to quilt. It just doesn't fit.

Brooke, you are just too crazy! Only you would blog about your teeth. Well, you and Kristen. She would probably blog about alot of other "stuff" too! You do make me laugh as I read this.........
