Holiday season again!

Where does the time go? Seems the older I get the faster time passes. Bummer!  I was hoping that with retirement, I would have more time to do things, but for some reason, it just seems to elude me.

Now we are in the Holiday Season and I'm already behind on several projects. I need to finish my Christmas Ornament Swap project by November 30th and then finish up the New Zealand Block for the CQI (Crazy Quilt International) Flag Quilt. Not to be forgotten, there are 5 ladies in a Steampunk Round Robin and I received some lovely blocks from Colleen A., and I'm going to have to have that finished to send off by January 15, 2015.

In between those projects, I must finish two pair of knit socks (almost finished) and a Afghan (only 1/3 is done), so I have to hurry and get things moving. LOL!

I do enjoy this time of year! Winter is coming and I am looking forward to Thanksgiving with family, as well as Christmas Day with my family. It is a wonderful time.

As one who was raised in a warm climate, I now enjoy the snow and long to see it on the ground. I know it is a hassle for those who live farther North, but for me, it is a wonder and makes me smile. It is like having my own giant Snow Globe to live in. 

I just received confirmation for the Crazy Quilt Journal Project for 2015, so I must get busy on the Christmas Ornament Swap and the Flag Block projects, so that I may get my CQJP2015 blocks made. 

So, I guess that means I'm Back to Work!   See ya!
