I spent most of the day today in Fort Smith finishing my shopping. The kids are older now so they basically know what they are getting this year. I was planning one gift to surprise Craig and who do you think I ran into when I had the gift in my cart. Yep, you bet. It was Craig. He said he heard me cough. I really need to get that fixed, don't I. So now, he'll just have to act surprised.
I really enjoyed shopping today. I just took my time and only went to a few stores that I really wanted to. I dropped by "Crackle Barrel" first thing to use the bathroom and look around. They had all of their Christmas 40% off. I don't think I've ever been there before at Christmas and didn't realize they had so many beautiful things. They had two sizes of acrylic deer that I really liked and each would be under $10. I planned to stop back by and get them after I checked another store and forgot. I have to go back to the doctor in Little Rock on Monday so maybe I'll remember to stop by the one in Russellville.
So no sewing this week, but it does look like Santa will be coming.
Plans are to sew tomorrow all day. Larry just remembered this morning that he is working an extra shift tomorrow. So it will be a slow Sunday with the kids popping in and out. And no work for two weeks. What a life!!!!
Happy snipping, stitching, and quilting.
I love Cracker Barrel to look around at the holidays but I totally forgot about it this year. One time I actually went in a day or two before Christmas and everything on the trees were down to 75% - I think I came home with about 10 new ornaments that I didn't need but caught my eye! I will need to run in and see what they have this week.
ReplyDeleteGood luck at the doctors office = are they getting closer to solving the problem?

Sounds like a great plan. The thing I miss most about teaching is the breaks! LOL! Have a lovely, relaxed day and week. :)
