Almost New Year's Eve

Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve. I think they throw the old mattress out the window in Italy. Not a bad idea. Out with the old, in with the new! I'm going to clean the refrigerator! We take our trash to the dump which is a social occasion on Saturday. However Tuesday is the big dump day as it is closed on Monday. Definitely out with the old today ... I'm even tossing a rug. Cheap rugs are a really good thing!

Notice there is no mention here of cleaning out the computer/work room!

Another really good thing is that gas prices and heating oil prices are down. I don't intend to get too political with this blog... But I must say it is a very sad idea (trust the New York Times) to suggest higher gas taxes. Is this another "fair tax" even if it is bad for our economy?

My Yahoo Group and Seed Catalogs

Hi, This is my Asian ball jointed doll group. It is for chat about tinies. We do talk about dolls like Unoa and MSD sometimes.

If you google "seed catalogs" you will find treasure! I also plan to get a gardening magazine next time I get to the market.

Enough already with the Holiday decor. Joann's has progressed to Valentines day! hugs, annie

Christmas Day

Hi, I hope you all had a wonderful Chrismas Day.

My husband took me to my favorite fabric store on the Tuesday before Christmas and I got some delicious Kaffe Fassett FQ's. I really needed more fabric! lol! Now I need the KF Garden Gate book. I also got "Patchwork Handbags" by Chuck Nohara.

(I have a long way to go as a blogger so I just continue on rather than keep trying to re-do things). The Christmas pictures are in part self explanatory. My grands gave me the bird feeder. My good friend Eileen made the bird ornament.

If you look in the back ground of the bird feeder photo, our house is behind me, The shared driveway is in the photo. If you are silly enough to continue reading this, you will read my adventures with this parking arrangement ... the price paid for living in the historical district.

Merry Christmas! Hugs, annie

Watching a Movie Being Made

Hi again, I have been watching the filming of a movie! It has been pouring rain and cold so hard taking photos. All the hard work and long waits are very impressive.

The lights at night were amazing and I wish I could have captured this better. hugs, annie

Another New Machine and Two for Sale!

Hi, I have a lot of news! I guess it has been a year since I bought my Hello Kitty Blue and now I have a Hello Kitty Green which is far more adorable than the photo!

I really like the small machines. I have a new Babylock Imagine and a new Babylock Intrique. They are both too fancy for me and both are mint in ther original packing and boxes. If I can avoid eBay I can sell the Imagine for 750.00 and the Intrigue For 450.00. shipping on each would be about 35.00 (I will charge actual shipping in USA only). The machines and accessories they come with are described and pictured on the Babylock web site. hugs, annie
