She's back! Diva that is

She's back! My Diva is back!

I got her from my sister-in-law. She was going to use her for mending. I took a class on paper piece (photos soon). I'm now going to start Christmas. I can't wait. I'll also have to show what TDH (Tall/Dark/Handsome) did for me while I was at work one day. A sewing area that doesn't have to be cleaned if the house would show. Know anyone wanting a house in Lexington, Virginia let me know.

Flowers

Remember how I told you I love floral surprises? Well I got one on Sunday when one of our cadets parents brought me flowers. It was VMI parents weekend. Mike and I adopt cadets and take them to church and feed them after and provide phones and a bed for them to nap and a place to relax away from VMI post. We had three of our cadets and parents and two brothers. It was a wonderful day of fellowship with some Godly parents. They are so happy to have their boys that have a church home and adopted parents locally to help them. We were missing two of our boys, one had a baseball game and then went out of town and another got to go home for a bit with his father.

No Picture Friday

Well it's been a great day. I took today off and slept late, really late for me. I ran errands which included buying a pad of newsprint do work on my Christmas patterns. I'm going to do some foundation piecing. I'm excited about it. Mike and I went out to eat with our pastor and buy some mums for the church and go to the store. You know the kind of trip when he looks in the cart and says we don't have much food in there. Nope we don't, but basics we needed almost everyone of them. I'm off so I'm away from my computer that has the software to upload pictures from my phone hence the no picture Friday. Have a great weekend everyone. I'll post pictures again on Monday.

Chocolate Cheescake!!!!

I love surprises! Mainly the floral variety, but today when Justin walked in the library he brought me cheesecake. Not ordinary cheesecake, but CHOCOLATE cheesecake. He wanted to thank me for helping him with equipment reservations all summer. Can you say desert? I did and it was YUMMY good. That man can cook.

Ode to Em

So the reason for the toes being cut and pampered was to go into my new boots! Well I shouldn't say new since they have been worn almost non-stop since they were bought weeks ago. I wear them with my skirts - my go to for work. They were not as fancy as some, just 39.99 at Target, but I LOVE them.

Burgundy

And the nail color is Burgundy! Stay tuned Wednesday to see what these toes now have to wear.

Reduced to tears

I was reduced to tears tonight when the fajita wraps came to the table at dinner tonight. I know you are thinking food brings you to tears. Well yes in this case they did. You see I used to take my fajita wraps home for my Zoey. I heard from her new owner today about how she is doing well adjusting. He was she's very attached to Wanda (his wife) and I'm well she was my dog so she's attached herself to your wife. He promised to put pictures up on Facebook this weekend. I hope I get to see her in her new environment.
