Hi all, been really busy plus really tired. Didn't sleep much this weekend with all the storms. Hopefully tonight will be better and I can rest.

 

Mona - enjoy Texas Roadhouse!! I love it, went there for my birthday. Although I didn't have to drive as far you do to get one

 

Ann - great news about the dr! Love all the little hats. The bag is awesome!

 

Jana - will keep Keri in my prayers.

 

Sue - Awesome you got to release two turtles!

 

Here's a pic of the karate champion! My nephew bought him a sumo bag to help him practice cause he's so proud of him and how well he's doing in karate. He's the one we get to thank for inviting GS to karate. And a pic of littlest GS helping PaPa mow (never cuts one blade of grass but loves to try to push the mower).

 

Have a great evening all! Hugs to All!

Good morning!

Great pics, Sherry- I guess you will now be Krafty 319--did you ever get the log in straightened out? Hope that you were able to get a good night's sleep last night!

 

Hump Day and I'm ready for Friday!! The Devils lost their game after a very strong start- blew a 3-0 lead to lose 4-3! Oh well, next game Thursday- they better win!

 

Hope you all have a good day!

[kuddlekubs]

Thats what everyone at work was calling me. I dont think she realized what having my 1st grandchild actually involves.

Totally missed this congrats ANN

 

tonya- how's things going with work? School? I got a 3.5 in my nursing class. we wont discuss spanish. work is lets just say I am giving my new mgr a chance before looking for a new position. he is trying to get our unit back into shape and really supports us so I am trying to help him. I am not particularly fond of the unit, but I do love most of my patients and they do make my day seeing them progress.

Jeff won tickets to the wings/predators game. he should have saved the gas and just stayed home.

Hey everybody! It's wonderful to read how you're all doing! Sending out and prayers to all ~ everybody needs them, whether they say so or not!

 

Tonya - Congrats, Grandma!

 

Ann - Great news!! Love your pictures... those hats are so cute!

 

Joanne - how long is this special project you're in charge of supposed to last? Do you have any vacation time coming up? Sounds like you could use some...

 

Sherry - Glad to hear you guys are okay after all the storms... if the only thing that got messed up was your Crochetville account, we can all say "Thanks" for that!! Great photos - looks like somebody needs a trophy cabinet!!

 

Jana - I continue to keep Keri in my thoughts and prayers...

 

Mama K - What does it matter if you have to make an extra trip or two when you're moving in order to get all your craft supplies?? You deserve to splurge on yourself occasionally... and I bet that peace sign fabric looks awesome!! (My DD loves peace signs... )

 

Mary - have a safe trip to your latest show and good luck!!

 

Sue - Awesome news about the release of the and I finally wandered over and checked out your craft room photos... one word ~ AWESOME!!

 

Things have been busy here - we were on spring break the first week of April and the younger two kids and I made a short visit to my Dad's (he lives in Bad Axe, MI - up in the thumb) and his mother in law (my step-mom's mom, I call her Grandma...) gave me a whole bunch of crochet magazines and books, and a bunch of yarn and thread, and a whole bunch of other stuff, too! I hit the proverbial "jackpot"!! Oh, and then yesterday afternoon I was checking all my lotto tickets, and I had a winner in there! ...I won $3!! (Yes, that is THREE DOLLARS) I'll be mowing the lawn today - I sure am enjoying the weather, but I also wasn't ready for lawn mowing season to be in full force already!!

 

Have a terrific day everyone!!

 

To anyone that I missed - and

 

...and I still haven't heard anything from Ducky...

[grannyannie]

Good Morning! Thanks everyone, I had fun making the hats and the bag. I'm planning to get the hats washed today so they can get in the mail tomorrow. Last update I had was yesterday and the girls were doing good!

 

Sherry, love the pics! Hope you can get some sleep.

 

Mama K, good luck at the dentist!

 

Joanne, only 2 more days til Friday

 

Sue, have a great day! Thinking of your turtles and sending good thoughts there way! We should be seeing snappers pretty soon coming up to lay there eggs. They love our asparagus bed!

 

Mona, the FBB was super easy and fun to make! You should give it a try!

Hi Melani! My goodness! You really did hit the jackpot! WOOT! Hope you didn't spend your $3 all in one place! Love that you got all the "goodies" from Grandma! Enjoy! Ahhh, the lawn is another thing,lol. DH has an excuse. Our mower has a flat tire!

 

Tonya, how did I miss this news? CONGRATS Grandma!!!!

You know, I did spend that big lotto winning all in one place - I put it in the gas tank! Have a great day, Ann!!

[kuddlekubs]

Hi all!

 

Yes Tonya, woot! I missed it too Ann, don't feel bad!

 

Yes the dentist was tons of fun. Getting a tooth drilled out to prep for another expensive crown is my idea of fun! Took about 6 hours before the numbness started going away! Yikes!

 

You are correct Crabby, what's an extra trip when you are getting yarn or fabric! When I make a bag with the fabric, I'll post a pic.

 

Well I should be working and not on here so bye!

 

Mama K

[tonyal]

Thanks guys. i am so excited me and the MIL are already starting to plan a shower lol.

Kuddles I think I have been channeling you I bought 5 bag patterns at joanns they had them on sale for 1.99 and 0.99 this week

[TurtleLvr]

In case you didn't see them in show and tell here are the latest 4 SBT's I've finished this week for the ladies in our gift shop.

 

 

The red, green and grey/purple ones were done with single strand bulky yarn. The other one was Bernat holding 2 strands together.

Ewww, I hate that numb feeling from the dentist! Won't even talk about the expense, lol! Looking forward to seeing the next bag you make. I'm so tempted to try sewing one, but with my sewing skills, umm, it could take awhile and I don't know if it would stay together!

You're going to have lots of fun planning and making things for the little one! Sounds like you got a good deal at JoAnn's this week! Woot! Any diaper bags?

Welcome to the group!

[imanurse55]

Good morning!

 

tonya- Don't know how I missed the post about the great news that you are going to be a Grandma! Being a grandma is the best thing ever!

 

Welcome dollylover!!

 

Love all the SBT's you're making, Sue!! I've got a bit of Charisma in my stash and love the yarn- Wonder why I didn't think to use some of it for SBT's:think Glad you did and inspired me!

 

Melani- Congrats on the "big" lottery winnings!!! I chucked out loud when I saw it was $3.00- that's about how much I've ever won.

 

Kuddles- I feel your "pain" about the dentist! did you take out a loan for the crown? Unbelievable how expensive they are!

 

Ann- We finally got some rain- not a lot- but it DID rain (and it's not the weekend)---although they are predicting rain on the weekend. Part of me doesn't mind- because if it does, I'll be forced to stay inside and which isn't a bad thing at all.

 

Sherry- Hope you've been able to catch up on some of your sleep!!!

 

Have a good day!

Today is the 17th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing. Many lives were so affected that day. I remember feeling the blast and wondering what it was. Then a friend called me and told me there'd been an explosion downtown--never did I imagine that it was a bomb blast. There were 168 precious loved ones were lost that day and many more injured.

 

Prayers for the families and the survivors today would be appreciated.

 

Hugs to all.

Thanks Ann!

 

Mary, so which one was your favorite?

 

Welcome dollylover!

 

Joann, Thanks! You need 1 skein of variegated and 1 1/2 of solid to make a SBT.

 

Sherry, 17 years? Seems like yesterday. Prayers to everyone in OKC!

 

[kuddlekubs]

Good morning,

Yes Sherry, thank you for the reminder. We are all so very lucky! Prayers to all that were affected!

Joann, uh yes even with dental insurance, it hurt what I had to pay. My jaw is sore, it was the back molar on my TMJ side so I'll be sore for a bit I'm sure.

Boss is gone today and tomorrow so I can 'coast' a bit. Lots to do though....

Have a good day all,

Mama K

[grannyannie]

Morning! Bright and sunny, but cool today. Haven't touched my hooks yet, but did make a scarf yesterday. Having a hard time focusing today. Once I "get myself together" I'll settle down and . Have a fab Thur everyone!

We're expecting a couple of inches of rain this weekend. I don't mind since DH works the weekends anyway and we really need the rain. Like you said, it's a good excuse to stay in and crochet!
