8 weeks, 5 days and counting

Don't you just hate it when bloggers you follow don't write for a long time, then apologize for it?






I hate myself.

Seriously. I've got my reasons. Losing my last pregnancy then getting pregnant right away and then thinking I lost that one and then having to sit around and wait to find out if I was right or not. Not fun.

Right now I am 9 weeks this coming Monday. Thursday is our next ultra sound. I'm not out of the woods yet but right now I'm dealing better with it. Mind you, out of five times I've been pregnant, I've only made it to 9 weeks once. Enough about the sad stuff.

Well, almost. Hubby fractured a hip three months ago and finally two weeks ago, an MRI found it. Last Monday as in the Monday we were to be getting ready to leave for Thanksgiving, we dropped Sarah at a friend's house and headed to the hospital where Hubby had surgery to put three titanium pins into his knew. Whew! With Thanksgiving plans canceled, I played nurse maid...as in nurse and maid. Miss Wiggles was not to be left out so she decided to teeth. So much for my resting.

I stink at being a nurse. I'm just saying. Hubby makes a much better nurse. I'm not feeling sorry for myself on that one or even attempting humility (which would be a false humility anyway), I'm just being honest. I'm praying about it.

I'm also praying about wanting to cook but in the mean time. My awesome friends have provided all our dinners for the last week and we are already stocked for the next week pretty much.

I am amazing friends, really amazing friends. For that I really am humbled.

All that said, I am so excited Dan's hip is fixed. I am so thankful for my friends. I'm thankful for each and every one of my babies. God is good.

No reason to apologize, hate yourself, or feel awkward about not blogging. You've certainly had your plate full - several plates, in fact. God gives grace, so do friends. Bask in it! Praying for things to smooth out for you. wb

Don't hate yourself! You've been busy. I'm glad that you and Dan made it through this last week. That is good news. :)

Congrats on the new little one! I totally understand about finding time to blog. I have been loving it - but it does take some commitment - I am finally hosting my first giveaway on my site but it has taken a lot of work.

Don't say you hate yourself, that's silly. I'm crossing my fingers as tight as they can be possibly crossed for you and saying many prayers my friend!

My second greatest creation!

I did it, I really did it. I've never done something to at this scale of work. It took me many hours but I did it. I am so proud of this DIY project. My first DIY Day! I would be remiss in mentioning that this little beauty is my best DIY and that handsome man there, well, he just melts my heart and fortifies it all at the same time. Here is the plain old dirty six paned window I have been hauling with me every where since I found it a few years ago at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I had it done up before but that was a novice's attempt at crafty. I knew when I saw the other crafty DIY projects floating around the blogosphere that I would need to get serious in order to play with the big dogs. Good thing all you blogger peeps were also my inspiration. ;) With out further adue . Did I spell that right. I need to learn French. Not really. I'm so doing this on purpose. Ok , here it is..... Three French Memo Boards, one cork board, one pane for a grocery list and ...

DIY Day a bracelet and another Frenchh Memo Board

This week, I have two DIY projects. This is a faux pearl bracelet I made last week for a friend. It is a three strand bracelet. I couldn't really say how I did it though. I can say it has taken me a while to get the nack of jewelery making. One thing I have sufficiently gotten the nack of is this French Memo Baord thing. Here is a magnetic one I made for my fridgerator out of left over scraps from the window from last week . For the month of September, all my DIYs will be giveways. Atleast one will be...well, a guest DIY and a giveway by my SIL over at Read Be Tween the Lines. My sister, Candy and Ladybugs has a picture in her side bar of her latest crosstiching (did I spell that right? My spell check didn't catch it but I don't think thats how it is spelled) project. Its pretty sweet. Check their blogs out on my side bar of my favorite blogs. I've found so many new favorite blogs, I need to update that list. Add that to my to do list. :) Update: Happy To Design...

A New Side Table Arrangement and Jewelery Give Away

Image
I did not think through planning blog posts on certain days when I had a Beach Trip planned. Shortly before we arrived at our rented beach house for the Labor Day Weekend, the owners cut off the Internet service. Bummer. Yes, I could have gone to the Dunkin' Doughnuts and gotten free Wi - Fi but that would have meant being pulled away from this cutie. Miss Wiggles does not like the bright sun (she is a fair skinned red head so I suppose its only natural) so she loved loved loved her sunglasses. Never once did she try to pull them off or attempted to touch them. I think 'cause she sees me where mine, she just knew. In the DIY blogging world, there have been so many neat table arrangements, and arranging every where else from bed sides, dressers , mantles, windows, etc. that I felt I should try my novice hand at artfully arranging my side table to the cozy leather chair in my library (aka, home office). So hear it is. I had this silver platter fit for a Thanksgiving Tur...
