Unfortunately I Will Be On Hiatus Until Further Notice....

Or about 20 days is what I'm told. I have to send my laptop - my first and only computer- in because it is plugged in and charging but it doesn't show that it is actually plugged in. I called HP and they think that something is wrong with my motherboard......damn.

Instead of looking at this from a negative standpoint I am going to make the best out of this situation - not that this is entirely detrimental or anything. I will have that much more time to focus on Christmas, presents, crafting, family, crochet (yes, I've decided to pick up my needle again), my husband, and my wonderful fur-babies. Not necessarily in that order :) I have some crafts that I would like to start and share with you all and this seems to be the perfect way to get started on all that!

I can still check my blog from work and maybe post something small, but I can't guarantee that....I don't wanna get into trouble! I will continue to read all the blogs I follow and comment on them too, I love to encourage and - hopefully - inspire!

So, if I don't get a chance to post on here, Merry Christmas everyone!

P.S. I was also thinking about coming up with a new name for my blog, something more me...I am also becoming more dedicated to this blog once I get my computer back. Once Eli joins the Navy I would like to start crafting a lot more so I can start selling on etsy and elsewhere :) Here's to dreams!

Felt Super Sale!!

So I think that the crafting gods have been sending me some not-so-subtle hints that I need to start crafting some more. First off, two nights ago when I got home from work I had a mailer from JoAnns giving me lots (and I mean lots) of ideas for this upcoming holiday season and lots of coupons as well. I also noticed right away that they are having a sale on 9x12 inch sheets of felt.....they are normally .29 cents a piece and they have them on sale for 4 for $1! Now I was definitely excited but imagine my excitement when I opened the mailer for Michaels this week (which was left in the breakroom this morning from someones newspaper....and I'm the only crafty one in the building so I pilfered it)....they have them on sale for 5 for $1!!! (Cheap thrills people, they're great!) So, I did some shopping/craft therapy on my lunch break yesterday and got 20 sheets of felt!! I mainly wanted to get some more to replace what I have been using for one of the projects I have been working on for a while......they just don't seem to have that certain color at JoAnns that I need for my racc.......ummmm.....I'll leave it at that :) That project is sort of a secret......at least from the world of bloggers until I can get things down.

Anyway, this post is really just to inform any and all bloggers looking for cheap felt, who have a Michaels nearby, to go to Michaels before Sunday! I went today and they had already run out of a few colors so get to moving people! I did happen to pick up some festive holiday colors as well so maybe I can make something cute and Christmasy soon.



Pretty.
Anyways, happy shopping all!
