Hubby's Coming Home!!

Darn! I didn't realize it'd been so long since I posted on
my blog! I should be beat thoroughly! :)

Hubby's phone call last night was fantastic!! If nothing
goes wrong or changes on his end, he'll be coming home on
July 3rd and get to stay until the 7th. I can hardly wait!
Our Jaylan was very excited when I gave her the news
also. She immediately wanted to know if she could
talk to him, the little thing thought he was home now.

My yard is absolutely beautiful! My flowers are
flourishing, the lawn is nicely groomed, no undesirable
items laying about, it doesn't look like the same place.
But I've worked my hiney off getting it all spruced
up too. I'm just thankful it's finally done.

I'm getting an addition to my little family in the next
couple days. I'm getting a Great Pyrenees puppy. I've
been wanting an outside dog for some time now, to help
deter the critters carousing around at night and
hopefully this new pup will do the trick. It's been a long
time since I've had a puppy so I'm a little excited
about his arrival. Hubby wasn't too thrilled when I
told him what I was getting, but I guess he'll learn to
live with it.

I've been sewing this evening, making some more of
the burp cloths from cloth diapers. I had a few diapers
left and decided to get them all made up and just get it
over with. I got a bunch of new ribbon when I went to
St. Louis, so these look completely different than the
last bunch I made.

After almost four months, I've finally made my first
sale on Etsy! Yippee!! I was really starting to wonder
if I'd ever sell anything. I sold 2 bingo bags last week
and low and behold I sold another one today. Maybe
things will start looking up now that I'll start getting
some feedback for people to look at. I really think that
was my main problem, people didn't have any clue as
to what kind of a seller I was. Now they'll know.
These sales have kinda given me an incentive to start
sewing more and post some more items. That'll be
my project for tomorrow, I have lots of stuff in boxes
hidden in the closet I can sell.

Two weeks ago my sister and brother-in-law took us
all to Branson. It was a lot of fun, but by the time we
got home I was completely pooped! Silver Dollar City
was absolutely nothing like I expected it to be. I
thought I'd get to see people doing their crafts, NOT!
The only thing I really got to see was a man working
with glass. I enjoyed shopping though! We went to
a Ben Franklin store that was exactly like they used
to be when I was a child. It was a fantastic walk down
memory lane. And of course my Sister took me to a
wonderful fabric store, I found some fabric I'd been
looking for and got some new ideas for projects. And
we went and saw the newest show in Branson, "Noah".
It was awesome! I enjoyed it soooo much. At first it
was a little slow, but about half way through it picked
up and I was mesmerized.

I'll try to be a better blogger, but I'm not gonna
promise anything! LOL
