HELP!!!!!!!!!!! I am still feeling like crap....I stayed home from work yesterday....and barely made it through work today....I'm supposed to host Bunco at my house tomorrow night for my Bunco group. I have been looking forward to this for MONTHS and I totally don't want to have to cancel it. Please keep me in your prayers and send me lots of good vibes for miraculous healing in the next 24 hours:)

I love it when surprises show up in my mailbox. These darling Halloween itty bitty bags stuffed with candy arrived several weeks ago from my darling friend Monica. Everything about my lovely Monica makes me happy:) One for me and one for Miss S...oh did I tell you I "forgot" to tell Miss S that one was for her so that I could keep them both all to myself?

I am trying my best to get some Christmas crafting done....it's sucked being sick the last few weeks. Yes, I am still sick:( Last night and today I've had a slight fever and a horrible croupy cough. Yes, I will go to the doctor if I am not feeling better in a few days. I am not looking forward to week 3 of feeling sick.

I love to crochet in the evenings while watching tv....it's so quick and easy for me....unlike knitting which is still so horribly slow for me. I can crochet a scarf in a handful of hours, or knit one in about 3 months....

I finished this one up a few nights ago. The turquoise and white yarn are from the thrift store, and the variegated was from a swap. Double crocheted about 7 rows and it was done:) I made it nice and long too - just perfect for warping around your neck a couple times.

So Tired

I spent 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. today at a Cub Scout training then was at a birthday party from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. I am tired.

Hmm.....just in case you were wondering....on my Christmas wish list this year are the following:



I'm pretty easy to please:) Gift cards to Hobby Lobby, Michaels, Joanns and Target are also perfect too:)

One of my many responsibilities at church is as a Den Leader for the Bear Cub Scouts in our ward....it's a challenging calling sometimes....lots of boys and the need for lots of activities to keep them busy. Last week was our Pack Meeting for November and the Bears were in charge of the activity for the evening. October's theme was Safari so we decided to make paper bag animals....the boys LOVED it!!!





It was a cheap, easy and FUN craft!!! We printed out all the templates from here.
