Last week Red finally developed his case of chicken-pox. He handled it pretty well for a four-year-old and loved being home with DH. Red is always saying that he lives in a little pink house with a very tiny key. So last Friday, in an attempt to divert his attention from his crop of poxies, we pieced together his little pink house. Just realized that I really should find a tiny key charm to sew on too!

Well, back to work today after two lovely and chicken-poxy weeks off. Yes, Tig had chicken pox and, so far, Red has no symptoms. I'm sure he will spot out at the most inopportune time. :-)
Here are some more pics from my Christmas crafting. The first is a little angel ornament I made  for the swap at work. The pattern is from the winter issue of UK Handmade. This is the first time I came across this magazine and it was great. Full of great ideas and wonderful interviews with UK crafters.Next is a pic of the CD cover I made for my CD case. I keep all my Christmas CDs in an old Army gimme cd case Magpie gave me years ago. It is not attractive so this is how it ended up.   Magpie really liked it so together we made this for her:
And then my mom wanted one too!    Friday, January 01, 2010So, what to do in 2010?
I have a huge want-to-do list.
There's lots more ideas but I misplaced my project notebook! On a personal note, I am going to get serious about being healthy. I've watched my mom fall into a lot of health problems due to her diet and I dont want to follow that same path. I will continue to get on the treadmill, will modify my diet, and will decrease my caffeine intake. (The last a real sacrifice. Will make everyone at work switch to decaf!! I buy the coffee anyway.)
