Make-A-List Monday - Life Is Getting Back To Normal! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Well, a week has passed and Monday has rolled around again - a fresh week and a new start! Let week was busy but things are finally starting to come together around here and I'm beginning to feel a little less stressed out. Hooray!

So let's see how last week went...

Make-A-List Monday - Better Late Than Never! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

I am more than a little bit behind this week, it appears - since it's Tuesday night and I'm watching This Is Us while I write this blogpost! But it's been a good week - in addition to working on my list, we FINALLY got the carpet done in my husband's office (third time is the charm, apparently!) and we found some floor in the garage.

So let's take a look at last week's list....

1. Finish getting Jolene and her frame set up and connected.

Done! It's so nice to have her ...

Make-A-List Monday - Guess Who's Back? from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Monday, Monday, can't trust that day... did you ever wonder why you couldn't trust Monday? I actually like Monday and the fresh start it gives us! And today's was especially fun, as the grandkids were out of school and I got to spend time with them. I'm going to like living closer!

But enough about that - let's see how last week's list went. (Please bear in mind that I had a wicked cold most of last week that is just now vacating the premises...)

1. Work on organizing/setting up the quilt ...

Make-A-List Monday - New House, New Start! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Rumors of my disappearance being totally inaccurate, I am actually alive and well despite my minimal presence here on the blog over the last two weeks. And I've missed it! Now that I feel like I can finally keep my head above water, it's time to get back into the regular swing of things.

Since I haven't done a list in a couple of weeks, here's a recap of the ministry quilts we've given away recently...

All of these quilts went to people dealing with serious medical issues and are giving quilt-y hugs ...

Make-A-List Monday - It's Getting Real! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Wow, has it only been a week? Seems like much longer since I made a list (not!) - because at the moment I am living by the list! Every day starts with a list, and I'm enjoying the thrill of crossing things off. Closing is on Thursday, and so far, the stars are aligning. Keep your fingers crossed it stays that way!

So now, let's look at last week's list...

1. Pull together fabrics and pattern for a gift quilt.

Done! And I've got the top a little over halfway pieced...

2. Pack.

Hi, all!

Well, we've finally made it to the Monday before Christmas - are you ready yet, or are you still working on last minute projects? It's been crazy around my place, but I think I've finally finished all the gifts and just have a little bit to do to get ready for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day cooking. Hooray!

I've been so busy this week working on packing things up that I haven't even thought about my week from last week - but let's see how it went...

Make-A-List Monday - My How Time Flies! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Make-A-List Monday - Oops! Tuesday! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Monday has come and gone - and I missed writing my post on time, so I am up early early early on Tuesday trying to get it done! My Monday disappeared in a flash of unexpected activities (more on that later) and ended up with an ornament exchange party and a long drive home in the pouring rain. Here's hoping Tuesday will be a little less eventful!

But let's get down to the nitty-gritty, and see how last week's list went...

1. Make some samples for the Joann's class open house this weekend.

Done! I ...

It's Monday again, and it's going to be a very short week, because I get to go to New York City for a very long weekend!
