So, Ginny guilted me into posting again. All I have are the usual excuses, nothing fun to write about, I've been really busy, etc.
So today I sewed (well, all but the elastic waist)6 pairs of bloomers. That was a labor, not because I'm not normally able to make them in decent time, but because I'm sick. I have a sore throat (I blame Isaiah)that started yesterday, which was the day after I was over at the, hmm, some friends of mine's house, looking after their kids, one of whom had a bit of a cough. Ya, I know, I dont have a cough, but I still blame him. :P It is weird that when one has an illness, that they automatically start thinking of someone to attribute their contraction of it to. Anyway, my throat is very sore, and I am very whiney as a result.
So Jody has been working on our site for the last ever (just kidding, she's been busy too), and it's finally almost ready to "launch" (that sounds way more prestigious that it is, no offense Jody, it does look really nice). Anyway, so thats exciting, now if all the dresses can sell immediately before we go to Canada and then I wont have to worry about closing the store for that time, as I wont be able to ship things from afar.
Speaking of Canada, YAY! Shawn and I are going for two glorious weeks! It'll be so nice to get together with all the fam and church people there.
Oh, and speaking of Canada, Irene was here for a bit a few weeks ago. It was great to have her around, I mean, her and Tony around. :D I did actually get to visit one on one for a bit, twas nice. She's a dear girl, with a great love for God and for discussing spirituality. I haven't spent much time with her in the past, so I got to know her a bit more than before. There was so much "partying" while she was here, we were going to and fro for days straight. Ben and Kathryn had a going away party, the same day as we had a shower for Laura and her baby Deiderick, and then we had a Lord's day filled with worship and pot-thing at Ang's, and then we had a picnic bbq the next day, and then, quilting (no one quilted) with the girls Tuesday, and then prayer meeting Wednesday, and I dont recall the Thursday, but anyway, you get the picture. And then babysitting for the friends, I didnt get a rest until the 7th, and it was no rest, I had orders! Anyway, right before Irene got here my serger broke down. It's too long of a story (it involves my breaking a $50 part while trying to "fix" it, it didnt need fixing in the end). So I did get to be the chaperone with more pleasure and less guilt for not getting my sewing done. At last my machine was fixed on the 3rd and I could sew, and it was great. All orders were done as of yesterday, so I am a free man, a free sick one.
Man, that was a long messed up paragraph. Sorry folks, I feel to low to fix it. I must go elasticize some waists. Shawn should be home soon, he's bringing me pizza, I love him so much!

It was nice to read an update, Tammy though I was not trying to put you on a guilt trip - at least not intentionally. :-) I hope you get over your cold soon. I am just recovering from mine and it was a brutal one. Your sewing business sounds fabulous. All the best to you and Jody in that venture. We are looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks. Take care....Ginny
you're welcome ladies. thanks for commenting and for your well wishes Ginny. we do look forward to seeing you as well!
Strange I kept looking here at your blog for an entry and only saw the new ones today... I hope your cold is all gone by now.
Looking forward so much to your visit next week,
May the Lord give to you all safe travel.
love
