Exercising Fun

We are now memebers of the YMCA, so we went and used the gym. It was great.

A little exercise makes for a good nights rest.

30 minutes on the ecliptical machine is brutal for someone like me who hasn't worked out forever.

Going Crazy...

I think I am going crazy. I just don't understand why things have to be done the way they are.

Have you ever felt under appreciated? Well that is part of my life right now. Sometimes I am tired of being overlooked and ignored and treated like I am completely stupid.
I feel like I am being walked all over in one area of my life which I am not going to be specific about because I don't trust people right now.

So I hate planning and hoping for things because they never seem to work out for me. I am waiting to findout about something but I have a feeling that I am just going to be disappointed.

Why does life have to be full of disappointments?

ugh...

Sunday Fun

Well on Sunday I usually sew, talk to family and sometimes read good books. Along with that is Church and meetings. Today I was working on a project that my mom gave to me because she was having a hard time seeing what could be done with the fabric which is very bright and busy. I like bright busy fabrics more than my mom so the challenge was exciting for me. I finished the top of the baby quilt (useing the bright and busy fabrics) and now it is ready for the finishing touches, but unfortunately I do not have any fabric large enough for the backing or that would match. So this project is going to be sent on to my dear sister Jennifer (who doesn't know it is coming yet, unless she is reading this) and she can have the joy of finishing it, which shouldn't be to difficult. (love ya sis).
Last weekend I finished a quilt for Mama Michie. It was nice to see the quilt completed. It turned out pretty nice looking. It feels good to complete a quilt. All the hard work pays off when you can see how it turned out. Now I need to finish the family round robin quilt that I participated in a few years back. I am still working on it. I could have it done soon if I really pushed myself but we shall see how it goes.

Can't believe its Feb.

Well January has gone and now it is February. The days move by fast these days.

Nothing new has happened in our lives.

We just keep plugging along, keeping busy with our jobs and church assignments.

Right now we are reading together in our free time, which is very enjoyable.

Need Help....

I don't know how to put a video that I have made on my blog. If anyone knows please help me.
Sorry guys looks like you won't be able to see mom open her gift.

Christmas Day ----Dec. 25 2009

Paul and I went to good old Moses Lake for Christmas this year. We had fun playing games with everyone and opening gifts. It was a lot of fun watching Mom Jones open her gift. I caught it on video so I could share it with all of you (mainly my siblings).

We enjoyed the games at the Michie Christmas Carnival. The little kids had tons of fun and so did the adults. I won the musical chairs game, which was fun. It was a great idea and a good way to spend some time with everyone. I hope we do that again sometime.

Thank you all for making our Christmas such a wonderful one. We are so blessed to have so many great family members and friends in our lives.

CHRISTMAS LIGHTS BUT DEAD TREE

Ok, so we bought a Christmas tree, but we didn't treat it right or something and now its dead. It's still here. Dried and leaning. Chris took the decorations off and yeah... it just sits there. We'll replace it sometime, maybe. We haven't completely decided what we're going to do yet. It wasn't ever very tall. On the box it stood a grand 4' 10". We thought we'd share a picture of us in our living room with the lights. They're pretty cool. They give the room a festive reddish tint.
