So much going on here!

My birthday was this past Monday so today we went out for lunch at our favorite place, went to hobby lobby and on to wal mart since I forgot laundry soap and then we had a blizzard for a little treat.  We are both bushed now but it was fun.  Lots of crafting going on to.

 We ate at a place called The Wooden Spoon in Gentry AR.  The building is an 1800's horse barn lovingly disassembled and reassembled and turned into a restaurant.  Today we had grilled burgers with bacon and cheese, potato salad and peach tea.  I could not finish mine at all!

Love the front porch here and all the flowers and such.

We were blessed with off and on rain all afternoon.  It was really good to see too!

I pulled up to the mailbox for Jack to get the mail and thought I would show you the mountains south of us.

These are the mountains to the east of us from the hobby room.  I think I spent more time daydreaming then working on the angels!

Here are the angels I have been working on.  They are ready to be sent off to their home!

The Cardinals got plenty of work done on them and today I am now working on the lower part of the chart.  Jack's afghan had the third row finished and three or four squares of the fourth row added as well.

I wanted you to see the progress on the hobby room.  I BIG change for sure!

Sylvia Joy got a couple new toys today!  Spoiled thing!

I forgot to take pictures, but Jack bought a model of the ship Arizona that was lost in WWII and I got some yarn on clearance for a little over a dollar that was normally almost four dollars.  A good day but we are beat!  Blessings and huggles.

A little of everything!

It has taken over a month, but finally the townhouse is looking like home!  Still a little work to be done here and there but all in all we are pleased!

I have been working on Jack's afghan.  I started it last year and then snowflake and angel orders and baby afghans got in the way!  I have told him I will have it for him this winter.  He has to spend a good deal of time on the floor trying to ease his painful legs and back.

And the cardinals are coming along!  I have been doing a lot of outlining and am taking a bit of a respite from them.

And here is our Miss Sylvia Joy giving me the once over and playing with her crinkle ball.  And kitty toes behind the table leaf!

In the good old summer time!

Been crocheting and cross stitching.  I am really wanting to get the Cardinals piece done and move on to something else.  I redid the french knots above Mr. Cardinals head.  Jack and I both agreed they were to big.  I am very close to getting the upper portion done.  I do have a narrow stip on the right to do as well after all else is done.

What do you think of my little tomato?  I found the pattern on Ravelry and have a great idea for tie backs for my kitchen so stay tuned!

And here is her majestic Sylvia or HRC Sylvia as a blogging friend calls her.  That stands for Her Royal Catness!  LOL!

Thanks so much for stopping in.  Huggles and blessings.

Tiny post!

Not much to show but here it is!  I had to fix a boo-boo but still got some done.  I am trying to finish up an order of angels, so I have been dividing up my time.

And here is a very sleepy Sylvia after I got up to get on the computer.

I will share some pictures of a couple rooms here at the new place.  It has been slow going getting unpacked and settled.  Our bedroom is finished.  We took the smaller back room for quiet, no morning sun and we love a cozy room!

The den is not finished yet.  Jack had to repair my sewing desk.  It needs replaced but I am not ready to say good bye to it yet.  I love waterfall style of furniture and letting go of a piece is like losing a chunk of me!  LOL!

Thanks for visiting.  huggles and blessings.

Here I am again!

We have been busy trying to set up house.  It takes us longer as we have to rest often, and the night brings much pain but much more joy!  I have started to work on my Cardinals again.  I am determined to soon have them done!

Also, our anniversary was the sixth but we were, as you know, moving.  So we had some belated fun.  I thought I would share it with you.

We went to Hobby Lobby and splurged.  Jack found this model.  He knows I love chargers.  Yes, I am a muscle car kinda girl!

I found some items half off.  Love the laundry room sign and it now hangs next to the laundry room.

This is the little restaurant we ate at near Beaver Lake.  Good food!

My other half off treasure!  No picture, but I also got a ball of crochet thread.

 Look at these big boats!  jack and I laughingly called them bathtub boats.

Miss Sylvia Joy missed her mom and dad that day!

Did you get to see the super moon Sunday evening?  My camera cooperated and I got some lovely shots.

 Thanks for visiting!  Blessings and huggles.

Good to be back!

 Well we are back online and have been for about a week.  We finally finished up the last of the move last Saturday.  We had to take a three day break because we were both in so much pain, moved one load and had to take another two day rest.  Two loads Saturday and we were done.  Wednesday and Thursday both we hauled two loads and by Thursday I was already feeling not so well.  I thought I had tied everything up really good but as I was approaching highway speeds, I saw the hutch to my china cupboard go sailing into the inside lane of traffic.  Jack wouldn't let me retrieve it and he went instead.  A wonderful man in a tractor trailer held traffic for him.  Thankfully no cars were hit or people hurt.  We were able to retie it and made it here with out any other trouble.  For going nearly 50 mile an hour the damage is minor and Jack can repair it.  Yet another reason I like buying older, used, solid wood when I can!

Sylvia is very happy in her new home!  The shrubs in front of the window makes her feel safe and secure!  Important for a shy kitty.

Oh and yes, I did get some done on my Cardinals!

I wanted to share a picture of a sweet little angel sent to me by a friend I met thru my blog.  It is made from a teatowel and pot holder!  She is such a cute thing!

And a final picture of our girl!
