Feeling accomplished

I feel like I have been going and going and going lately.

Last nite I finished my final Bragg Bag. All ACU purses are done, and I will probably get some more this month with all the upcoming FRG meetings. I am excited to finally start working on items for me. Well not me, but my daughter.

I have new fabric that I can't wait to cut into and use for a Easter dress for my little bug. She will look so cute in the pastel blue dress. I am excited to start working on that today!

Heard from Scott and we have a converstation like we are always good at doing. Poking fun at each other just enough to get a laugh. He was having a tough day and really enjoyed talking to me. I could tell he was happier afterwards. I love him dearly and can't wait til Oct for R&R. He is already trying to figure out what he wants to do then.

Brand new bag completed!

I finished another military purse! I hope she likes it! This one I think I will name Roxy Knoxy. Her hubby is airforce- so that is the uniform used.

What do you think? The outside of the bag has her last name embroidered on it

Inside there are two smaller pockets and one large on. Magnetic clasp.

One of my buddies enlisted me to crochet her a cap. She was unsure which color combo she would like more, so I told her I would crochet both. Here is the first one. Its black and pink. Hope ya like!

The day that keeps giving me hell

Yah its been a bad day.





Bad in the sense that my daughter still is vomiting 6 days after our intial ER visit for a high fever, vomiting and a febrile seizure. Still sick, and the doctors just continue to say its a nasty virus and they can't do anything for poor dehydrated bug. Yeah, love military health care.





Then, lets see, last nite in the dark and ice of my driveway- I backed the tow hitch of my Suburban into my garage door. After pounding on the steel door for a half hour, I gave up trying to fix it and called a garage repair guy. In 5 minutes he fixed it and charged $85.00 WHAT!



Oh and theres more.....





My Suburban which I only drive once a week as its a gas hog-- I drove yesterday into town to go to a fabulous pizza house called the Mooses Tooth with some girls of mine. Well I parked next to a little Yellow VW bug. This morning, guess what I find on my car. Yellow paint scraping my black paint off the right rear of my car. Yup, their mirror put two scratchs all on the side of my car. A hit and run. I got an estimate to repair and my deductable is $500 and they want $425 to repair two straight , almost key marks on my car.





So, then just to top off my day. My wonderful daughter decides to grab my glasses for the umpteenth time. So they snap and break. My only pair of glasses. So I am blind as a bat. Seriously , my nick name in middle school was Mole if that gives you any idea of how bad my eyesight is. No appointments for three weeks at teh military eye doctor.



FABULOUS. Anyone else wanna share their worst day experiances?





I did photograph a new item. An Awesome Newsboy Cap in Eggplant:
