30 Days Of Thanksgiving, Day 8

Right now I am thankful for:
~Finally being able to see comedian Jeff Dunham live! (Well, we're not going to see him until February 2011 but that's only 3 months away and I've wanted to see him live for Years! Happy Dance!)
~Hubbs, who surprised me with the Jeff Dunham tickets when he got home from work today.
~How liberating purging feels. (I've been purging again all day, tackling the guest room/office/exercise room as well as my yarn stash).
~The blogs I read often. They're such a source of inspiration and community.
~Knitting.
~Inspiring others (i.e. to join me in being thankful each day this November), which is just about the best compliment one can ever receive!
~Laughter.
~Yankee Candle Peppermint Swirls candles.

What are you thankful for today?

Oh, I love knitting! Especially scarves and fingerless gloves (they're my specialties). I made a sweater once - which came out alright - but too boxy. I need to try again. :) Theresa

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! Updated

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return.

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
