Talk about withdrawal! Keeping in touch with my blog buddies has become such a big part of my life, that I think I was suffering far more than I imagined possible with no Internet access from home for nine whole days!
Yes, I have been doing my best to keep up by using my smart phone, but it just isn't the same. I NEED my computer!
One advantage to being disconnected was that I did a lot of reading. I read the entire Hunger Games trilogy in eight days. What a great series! I didn't realize until we went Christmas shopping this past weekend that the series is being made into a movie. I'm usually disappointed with movies after reading books, but I'm sure looking forward to this one!
I received a lovely surprise from madtatter80 this past week. Isn't this a beautiful little case? And inside...
a hand carved Sea Turtle Shuttle! The detail is amazing!
I also finished a beaded bag for a teacher at school, who's getting married New Year's Eve. This isn't Jackie's bag. I forgot to take a picture of hers. This is the one I made for daughter Joanne's wedding in August 2010. Somehow, they each turn out a little differently!
I'm almost finished with Jackie's wedding hanky. I'll take a picture as soon as I've finished.
Today I was really excited to receive my Christmas shuttle from Chris and Erin Hinton at The Shuttle Shop!
Isn't it angelic? Sorry... I just couldn't resist! : )
