yikes!!!

I know!
I have been avoiding this like the plague!!
Seeing just HOW l o n g it has been since i posted here on the ol' bloggity!!!

OK, so something had to give, and this was the logical choice.
My poor (insert "old") brain can only handle so much. I have been busily preparing for my children's next ventures in life, you know. This heading to college and high school is, well, stressful, and joyous of course. It really feels wonderful to have gotten to this point, really.

Boys are not a lot of help when it comes to shopping for everything he will need for his tiny dorm room and new life on his own. I mean my daughter would be after me everyday about when and where we were going to get this and that, whereas the son...
hasn't even thought about it yet! And move in is in 2 1/2 weeks!!!

On top of that of course we are busily getting new uniform, school books and the like for a new school for my baby after being at the same one for 10 years!!! Lots of changes on board for this household, LOTS of changes.

I am extremely excited and looking forward to the changes by the way! I know that I will miss my boy (A LOT!), but I am also ready for him to grow more independent and hopefully get enthusiastic about learning!

OK, now that I've gotten that out of my system, here's another reason for me to be blogging. A facebook friend of mine is turning 40 this month (she doesn't know hoe young that is!), and to celebrate she is offering/hosting a series of giveaways. So far she has had some wonderful items! You have to check it out. Her blog is Shopaholic (don't you love that!)

For any new viewers, please feel free to email me with any questions about custom orders, prices, availabilites of fabrics, anything! I realize the shop is not very well stocked and will do my best to get you what you want, if you will just be patient with me.
here's my email: elrwga@comcast.net

thanks all!
