Happy Monday to ya!!!
Watched the super bowl lastnight with the hubby...glad the Giants won. Personally, I'm a Pittsburgh fan...go Steelers...but out of the 2 teams that went to the super bowl this year, I liked the Giants over the Patriots. I like to sit and watch basketball too, even though I don't follow any particular team. Pittsburgh so needs a basketball team.
My sewing machine hasn't arrived yet. It was mailed parcel post, so I'd imagine it will be hear some time this week. I need to pick up some extra bobbins for it. I like to pre-wind lots of bobbins so they are ready when I need them. I just open up my little bobbin container and grab whatever color I need...fast and easy.
We added a few punch needle patterns to the site over the weekend. I've been having requests to do punch needle patterns, so I took the plunge. I'll add the pics here to the blog later...plus I've got 2 more punch needle patterns in the works.
Don't forget about the sale... 40% off St. Patty's and Easter!!!

Friday morning...
Yay...it's Friday!!! Hubs made it through his first week at his new position at work. He's brought work home every single night...and I'm sure he'll have work to do over the weekend as well...ick. We don't have kids...just 2 cats...and I am so not used to him be'n home and us not spend'n time together. He says that after this calms down...probably a few months...he won't have as much to do at home. Right now they are setting up a new account for a new client, and they are starting everything at the bottom...nothing in place yet.
Tonight after work, hubby and I are going to see my nieces last home basketball game of the year. She plays girl's basketball...as well as soccer...but cheers during basketball season for the boys team. She is also...are ya ready for this...the very first girl on the high school boys football team in school history...she's the kicker. She excelled so much at soccer her freshman year, that the football coaches teased her and said you should be our kicker. Well...my niece takes a challenge seriously...as you can see...and she went out for the team. They didn't pull any punches and put her through the same practices and workouts at the boys...and she did BETTER than a lot of the boys. This past season she was even featured on ONN where she kicked the winning field goal for her team. Here's a nice article about her online...can ya tell I'm the proud aunt...lol...!!!

Happy Thursday!!!
Had an appointment yesterday at 3:00 and didn't get a chance to post here on my blog. Met up with my mom and sister before my appointment and we went to lunch. There's a Panera at the mall near my parents...so we all went for a bowl of yummy cheese soup and a hunk of their french bread.
Today I've been in my office all day...except for 20 minutes on the treadmill this morning and a couple of snack breaks. Get'n my biz taxes done this weekend and trying to get everything tallied up and organized. I've been finding myself day dreaming out the windows at times though...lol. This summer will be our first one in the new house, and I'm so look'n forward to getting out in the yard and landscaping. There is some minimal landscaping in the yard...mostly bushes and hedges...but it so needs some flower beds and prim decorations. So I sit in here and stare out the windows and picture all the neat things I'd like to do.
Not sure where the time has gone today, but it's already after 5 pm. Hubs will be home soon from work and I haven't even started...or thought about for that matter...anything for dinner. Whatever it is, it will be quick and simple...I think I've got some chicken in the freezer.
