Anything Worth Doing is Worth Overdoing

I had to wait until the week before Christmas to decorate, but I went all out when I finally did the work.  I am rather pleased with my results and currently planning to leave it up until spring.

You Bloody Bastard Spam Commenters, Stay the Hell off My Blog

I write this basically for me.  I have a few followers, maybe 5 if I'm lucky.  I am so tired of removing crap comments from jerks trying to use my blog for their advertising.  Go away, you rat bastards.

CRAZY Busy

This has been the busiest Christmas season ever on eBay, I have been packing and shipping every day, so unlike the last few years, and oh, do I hope it keeps going this way!  My own decorating and shopping plans have been put on hold, and I am just now getting the trees up and the Santas are still in the cupboard.  Once I get done, I am pretty sure I will leave it up until April.

Here are two trees done, and today I tackle the music room and possibly shoveling out the dining room, which has been an antique disaster zone for two months now, as all my craft work has escaped the craft room and found a new home on every empty space in the dining room.  My husband is no help, as he keeps going to antique shops and just piles his finds on the floor in that room.  Hard to complain when I am just as bad, but I am going to do it anyway!

A Word from our Sponsor, the Color Blue

The mountain of Christmas projects has not diminished, but I took a time out to re-style some of my blues...

Neither the Best of Times Nor the Worst of Times

I spent Thanksgiving week setting up and tearing down my antique and craft sale in Clarinda.  I had over 50 people, so that was better.  It was much too exhausting to be worth the effort still.  All my family was home so we got to have a real Thanksgiving at my sister's house, so that was nice.  Another surprise was my sister sold her house about the minute she listed it, leaving them homeless in 30 days, so she is going to move into my house in Clarinda.  This is really good, because I don't have to worry about burst water pipes or other disasters this winter.

Here is a sampling of my show.  I do think I do good work.
