and then I blinked and it was over........

Wow, I am appalled at my poor use of grammar in my last post. It is a true testament to the craziness surrounding me yesterday. But today the tree is down(too dry),Pete's in bed(too tired) and my dad is at home(no work, sliced part of his thumb off). I was hoping to post some more Christmas photos, but they are inexplicably missing from my pictures. There is still so much going on here. Pat has had the kids out all day. We still need to find my parents an apartment. Most exciting though is that I am going to buy a new sewing machine, a really nice one. It's akin to buying a new car and I have a lot of brochures and a lot of shopping around to do. So, does anyone have any suggestions? I am super excited about it. I hope everyone else had a great Christmas and is enjoying some well deserved rest. I think it will take a couple of days to get back into a regular blogging mode, but it will happen. Love to you all!
