I am here now too. Had to cook, eat, do a bit of crafting, bathtime for the little 3 then bedtime for them. I got to take a nap from 9:00pm til now cause it takes Benjamin (2.5) forever to get to sleep since his naps are relly late in the afternoon.
I was thinking of you all though!!

I got here late late late. I had to drive in town today for an appt and then elfmama and I (and our kiddos, of course) had our Christmas exchange! Then I had TSiS chat to head up and now I'm here wondering why in the world I don't have a gold paint pen???? How many trips to micheal's can I make in one week????

I don't know about you but I think my record is 5:eyeroll:
when i did the shell boxes for the mermaid swap, I went back 4 times to get more shells...when didn;'t I just buy more the first or second trip you ask?????.....Well it just didn't seem so simple at the time
ok, I must know
do you all go to Michael's so much cuz you haven't accumalated a cellar full of every craft imaginable or is it that your cellar isn't organized so you can't find the stuff(like me!)
does anyone know the cheapest cost to buy wool felt...I can open a wholesale account with mericurius(sp?) but even still I'm not sure...I was on this site yesterday that sells large sheets of wool felt(in white a brown and 2 grays) by the oz and it was $2.25 an ounce each sheet was like 3' x 4' or much smaller....I forget and it was like 18oz a sheet! This was for thicker wool felt for coat lining, etc.
and wool roving, dyed
and the wool fleece for stuffing.....that's what it's called right, the not so fine and pretty fluffy wool stuff?
I was up until 1:30am with stomach pains, (I was just surfing, too much pain to type much) I had a diet creamsicle bar and I think I made myself lactose intolerant, lol, cuz I can't tolerate any milk anymore, I just don't drink it at all, and since Maegan had diet issues we switched her to soy/rice and almond combo I use almond milk in my granola which I only have 1-2 times a month anyhow...
off to make coffee...

And see what I've been up to at:
IO was dealing with sick kids. Can I just whine and say this is the third cold we have had in the last 2 months! We just got semi-well and went to have Christmas in Maine. My sister had 4 out of 5 kids on medicine so it was a losing battle. And to top it off, I am not allowed to even approach Maya if Daddy is home or she throws a fit. Here's hoping I can take a nap today.
Sorry for all of you who are sick or dealing with sick kiddos
I made a run to Michael's and Joann's yesterday and came home thinking I need this, and that, lol.
Stacey - if you go to Joann's asap, they have an unadvertised special on their wool felt - it's all 50% off. I got 4 yards of 100% wool (natural, dyes up beautifully last night) for $7.50/yard (usually $14.99).
