Well, did everyone survive the holiday? Whew! Am I glad it's over. My mom is going to kill me, I totally forgot to call her yesterday AND today, but I talked to her on Wednesday, so it should be ok. Note to self, call mom tomorrow!
So for the day after the holiday, I decided to hit up a couple of quilt shops. I decided the traffic might be bad, so I just went to local shops. I went to the Fabric Patch and just got a few 30's fat quarters and a couple of notions, then I went up to Ginger's and picked up a few fat quarters and signed up for a really cool block of the month Ginger is offering and had a nice chat with the infamous Jane of LA Quilter's blog. Jane said she reads my blog all the time. Hi Jane! I'm testing you! Oh, and speaking of Vicky, I am this month's lucky winner of the Simply Sophisticated drawing she puts on every month due to the generosity of Kimberly at Fat Quarter Shop. I won this month's $25 gift certificate. Now I just need to decide what I want to use it on! How fun! Thank you for hosting the drawing every month Vicky!
I puppy sat again tonight, my daughter just came and got her baby after work so now my poor cats can come out from hiding. Hey, for all you parents out there who know how hard it can be to get your kids to visit when they move out, it works for me!
Well, no quilting occurred today, the doggy didn't want me doing that, so maybe tomorrow.

Hi Beth!
It was good to see you today. And yup, I really do check your blog every day.
Happy New Year!
You two crack me up! I stayed home yesterday in my PJs all day! If you only picked up a few FQs and notions, you did good! I'll have to check out the new BOM at Ginger's!
I sure am glad all the holiday preps are over too. And I know ALL about doggy sitting! I dog sit for my daughter's black lab.... permanently! It lives with us. SIggghhhh...beautiful dog, good dog, but BIG!
Hi Beth,
I almost went to Ginger's and Fabric Patch yesterday too! I was just afraid of hitting traffic coming home. Instead I went to Quilter's Garden & Calico House.
Happy New Year!

I think Jane needs a blog of her own! LOL! And that reminds me--I don't think Vicky's written about any of their adventures lately unless she's written this week--I need to pop over there and catch up!
I hope you get some sewing time in today--or do something fun, anyway! I'm going to be doing my tamale thing this afternoon, but I think I'll do some sewing this a.m. first.
