Crafts To Do

Hello one and all! It feels good to be back after my break. Sorry to put blogging in the back seat, but with family in town, parties to go to, and goodies to cook, I figure blogging might help bring a stressed induced aneurysm this holiday. But now Christmas is over and the New Year is upon on.

To get ready for this new year I have been making a list of goals, ideas, and activities I am wanting to do this year. But I did something different this time around... I decided to also have a craft goal list. So, here is my list of crafts that I am planning on completing.... wait.... um, I'll change that to planning on ATTEMPTING... we will see how successful they are :)

    I think just about everyone went on a bloggy break. I know I did. And it felt great. It is a little hard to get back into the swing of things now. ;)

  11. "I figure blogging might help bring a stressed induced aneurysm this holiday." I am ROTFL. Only a busy mom could relate to how very real this risk seems.
