I think I have an election hangover. Somebody let me know when it's ok to start watching Good Morning America again. I don't think I can stomach the Obama love fest for the next week or two.
Locally, I voted for more democrats than I ever have before, but none of them won, which I kind of expected. Sangamon County GOP machine at its finest.
Everything here is still going swimmingly. Will is 4 and a half months old now, he's smiling and laughing and squealing all the time. I'm trying to teach him to turn over but so far he's just frustrated with it. He's a little over 14 pounds, and 2' tall now. Such a cutie! If you want more details on our journey with DCFS shoot me an email.
Gearing up for Black Friday. I'm disappointed with the lack of ads so far, but have to keep reminding myself it's still a little early. I'm really anticipating the Meijer ad, that's probably where I'll be hanging out, but I'd like to see the rest for comparison shopping. And I'm sure I'll be at Joanns for their thread sale! Anyway, sign up at gottadeal.com to find out more on the ads!
The Fleece Project is done for the year, we ended up with a little over 200 hat and scarf sets. Shortly after that I was asked to make some hats for a couple of Chinese orphanages, and we'll have those finished by the end of the week. We're also making fleece blankets for every homeless kid in town, for Christmas. Those will also be done this Saturday. I'm really looking forward to being able to work on some of my own stuff for a month! I need to make some more pajamas, and I'd like to try my hand at a capsule wardrobe. I'm not convinced that it's exactly what I need to do, but I'm willing to do 4 or 5 pieces that all coordinate.
Work is still work. We have some new projects/customers coming on, and that keeps me busy and/or entertained.
I think that's about it, lots of sewing and taking care of Little Tot. Now it's off to work!
