The Weekend Again

I love the weekend when you can truly relax. We made it back home late last night and after unpacking the car and getting unwound I actually slept like a log. Guess I needed it, lol. The week started out with me being sick and progressively got better with the exception of my back and neck being out. A good nights sleep did wonders.

Today, was a relaxing day. The usual domestic goddess things, running to the store for a few items and laundry. Caught up on computer emails and whatevers. We went to hubby's brothers tonight for a relaxing evening. And it might have been a relaxing evening if their younger brother hadn't been playing his pranks, lol. Seems he had some leftover small fireworks, those things that you throw at the sidewalk and they "POP". Scared the crap outta me, but most of all it literally scared the crap out of their dog while it was on my lap. Only I didn't know it till later!! So the end to my relaxing day was crapped on. Richard will love that, and what a story he'll have to tell for weeks, even months from now. I'll not hear the end of it for quite sometime and I had nothing to do with it. I was just the one being crapped on! Just love it when we go for a visit with them, there's always a memory in the making and a story to be told. And the next family adventure was in the planning for Labor Day weekend.

We'll be headed for Atlanta on Tuesday. Have high hopes of stopping at the kids on the way back. Haven't seen the kids for a couple of months. So cross your fingers on that.

Didn't take pics this last week as I had posted pics in an earlier post of New Mexico and didn't want to repeat. I'll try to get pics this week since we're going in a different direction.

Hope you all have a Great week!
Until we meet again..........................Prim Blessings!

Time To Dream

It's a beautiful day here in Albuquerque. Just waiting until the morning to unload the last drop. So I've had the afternoon to daydream. I've worked on a little needlepunch, a fall design with pumpkins and a crow. I'm using the "New" Valdani threads so I'm looking forward to see what it looks like finished. I love the Valdani threads.

Ok, so here's whats been on my mind today. I'd like to come up with a "New" name for my blog. I'd love any and all suggestions. And, I want a new topper for my blog with some really cute prim graphics. I've been searching on the web today, but to no avail. I'm sure I'll have to have something made. But that will have to wait until I come up with a new name. Again any and all suggestions are welcome.

I've also been looking at web sites and blogs of other creative people. I'm listing a "New" blog under my source of inspirations, KKL Primitives. I love her web site as well as her blog! check it out and it might give you some inspiration too.

I look at all these creative things and the people who are doing them, and I think I wish I were doing something like that, too. I've always wanted to do patterns, for like 20 years I've doodled things but never produced. And now there are the New Etsy shoppes, how neat are those! And I'm always thinking about what I could do with something or make a design come to life. I guess I need a little more time, or maybe I need to manage my free time better, LOL. So, I've spent some time daydreaming today.

My hubby is the kind of person who thinks it, and it happens. I need to be more like that.

It's been a good day! I hope your day was creative and productive as well.

Until we meet again.........Prim Blessings!

Happy Wednesday

Happy Wednesday from Tucumcari, NM. The first part of my week didn't start out so good, was sick with someone's flu bug! Then the aches and pains, now just my neck and back out, LOL. But, I'm feeling much better.

Just dropped off the first drop of my load in Roy, NM, will deliver the 2nd drop on Friday morning. Then? Who knows, LOL.

I'm adding a pic of the little bags I'm working on, keep in mind this is a work in progress. The next time I'm home for any length of time they should be done.

Hope you are having a Great week so far.

Until we meet again.............Prim Blessings

Ahhhhhh, The Weekend

So glad to be home on the weekend. This past week was a good week all in all. Started out in Kentucky and then to New York state and back. But, it's always nice to be home. We actually got home late Saturday afternoon, after stopping for the usual groceries. Brought Chinese home for supper and just relaxed. This morning was a nice cool, but sunny morning. Fall is in the air. Although it's my favorite season, I'm not ready for it yet, because I know cold weather is not far behind.

After a few Domestic Goddess duties, laundry and such. I had time to relax and refresh. Out of town relatives called, a nice surprise. We all meet at hubby's brothers and had a nice visit around the fire. I saw a falling star or maybe a meteor. It's always nice to sit aorund the fire and relax.

I have some crafty things to get ready to take this next week. We're off to New Mexico for the week.

Until we meet again......Prim Blessings!

On the Move Again

After a nice weekend at home and a fun Diva Day it's back to work. We've made a run to a small College in the eastern part of Kentucky and now we're on our way to New York. So far so good for the week. Hope your week is going well also.

I frantically finished some ornies for a swap I'm in, and I do mean frantically! They are postal now via priority mail, Thank goodness. I have some goodies in my bag to work on if I get time this week. I'll post pics of the ornies later, but can't at this time. Some of the girls from the swap might take a peek, lol.

Hoping the rest of your week goes well. I'll post more later.

Until we meet again.......Prim Blessings!

Diva Day

I'm behind on my blogging again, lol. It's been a long week and I'm glad to have a few days at home to rest and relax! We just returned from University Park, Pa. To be exact we delivered to Penn State University. Wow a big place and a very nice campus!

Friday was a day to run errands. got to the chiroprator, stock up on groceries for the weekend. I had computer issues this last week, so hubby took some time to fix that for me. What would I do without him! He is the computer wizard! We spent the evening with hubby's brother and wife, relaxing around the fire, Yes, a fire in 90 degree weather,lol, and visited. It's always fun to visit with them and relax. I have been friends with my sister in law for many years and we used to do everything together, I miss our fun days we used to have! Ok, that was our Friday.

Earlier in the week my friend Pam, the only one who keeps up with me, emailed to see if I were coming home. She always emails to see how and where I am and ask "are ya ever going to come home", lol. We made plans to get together this morning. So, off I went with my basket of current things I'm working on. Thinking we were going to sit and visit and just work on our projects, lol. She had ideas of her own, making "dottie dolls". Never heard of these before, but she filled me in and our creative minds started working. How fun these were, and the ideas are still flowing! She has already posted a pic of hers on her blog, www.grammysalteredlife.blogspot.com and I will post of mine later as well. It was an awesome morning, visiting, creating and playing with her girls Winnie and Dottie ( they're dogs, but don't tell them that, lol). She is a BIG inspiration for me and I was needing inspiration, Thank you Pam for being you.

After all that creativeness, I needed a nap, lol. A much need one. Hubby fixed supper on the grill. A couple of loads of laundry and now just relaxing and catching up on computer work.

Tomorrow will be a quiet day. Finish laundry, repacking for the week ahead and making sure I have plenaty of things to work on with me. Next week we start out for Kentucky with a short run and I'm sure a long run towards the latter part of the week. So we most likely will be out for the weekend.

Hoping you all had a Great week!! I'll post pics later.
Prim Blessings to you all.

A Creative Drive or Driving Creatively

Why is it that I am the most creative when I'm driving down the road????? Seriously, I have ideas running through my head as fast I am driving sometimes! OMG, and then when I get stopped they are gone! Well, my friend told me to jot it down for later, LOL. Ok, I tried it, now remember I am driving along anywhere from 55 mph to 70 mph, she said even if it's squirrely you will know what you mean later, ROFL!!!! Love her for her inspriation and friendship, but she's a hoot. I can make out some of what I wrote and some looks like gibberish. Ok, then she said get a recorder and record your ideas, well now she's talkin. So, I have a voice recorder on my Blackberry, and it worked very well and was safer than trying to make notes, LOL. For the Love of God why didn't she say that first, LOL.

Home for the day. A little bit of laundry and that's about it. Hmmmmm, learned a New Spanish word this week. A word for little bit, po-ke-to or po-ke-ta, of course the spelling is not right, but sound it out you'll get the picture. Anyway don't remember which way it is, o or a. Anyone know spanish?

It was a good trip to Tucson, a couple of short nights and a couple of long days. I did get a few pics of the pots I mentioned in an earlier post. So I'll put them on here. And I ran through a swarm of honey bees! What was I to do??!!?? I felt bad, and I had pollen allover the front of my truck from the pollen the little bees were carriyng in their little baskets on their legs. Ok, they need to stay off the Interstate.

I changed a couple of things on my blog, and added some places I like to visit. Check out the web sites I added, like kmprimitives and pumpkin seed primitives, both are among my top favs. Both of those girls are an inspiration to me in a lot of ways.

My Riverbend Friends will be headed to Kansas City this week for the August Market. Best of Luck girls, sorry I'm not going!! They'll have a blast.

Oh, almost forgot.... we went through the chile Capitol of the world this past week!! Hatch, New Mexico. It didn't look like a lot, but there were Chile stands and Chile's everywhere. No place to pull off on the way down, and on the way back when we could have pulled off they weren't OPEN!!! Oh well, I don't eat chiles anyway, but hubby would have tried them, LOL.

Hope you all have a Happy Sunday!!!

Until we meet again.......Prim Blessings
