Happy Holidays and Seasons Greetings!

Hello to all!! thank you for stopping by and taking a look!! Here is whats been happening and what is to come!!

1. i did go to the ENT specialist. he says i have TMJ (Temperomandiblular joint pain) that my ears are ok right now. that its the pain from my jaw making my head hurt so bad. He put me on 600mg ibuprofen regimen, saline spray and my nasonex.. and i go back in 6 weeks. and oh.. a "soft" diet for a month.. only soft food.. ick..

2. I never look at the merchandise from dA.. and the reason is.. there are some awesome things available that i want.. and cant get.. but i did look yesterday.. and i fell in love with some of the shirts!!

3. my project list right now is sooooo longgggg.. i just kept adding to it.. and once again feel that i overwhelmed myself at the moment.. and its really bad because lately, ive not been able to work on anything because of my head hurting so bad i havent been able to concentrate..

My to-do list:
*Finish Eric's sweater- over half way done with sleeves, then i have to do neckline and sew together, which i have no idea how to seam it.. *runs to youtube*
*Finish nephews/niece christmas gifts- 1 needs to be sewn, 2 need to be finished crocheting
*Make SIL snowman basket for christmas gift
*Start hat test pattern- give to son
*Start cowl test pattern- keep or give to MIL
*Finish dA holiday cards and ornaments- have 3 done and one to go.. wont reach my goal.. but i will send a few..

wow.. i think thats it at the moment. well, as far as my to-do list is concerned. :)



Everyone have a safe and happy work week with a wonderful weekend to come!!
