Rapunzel

No Hair? No problem!

My daughter made me crochet a hat designed by her, by her desire of having long hair like Rapunzel.

Yes, the "hair" go pass her feet and they lay on the floor. She even hired Spider man to discourage any villain from cutting it.....

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

I'm on the end of the turkey coma after a feisty lunch that included a turkey (of course), mashed potatoes, white rice, corn and buttermilk biscuits as you can see.

What did you have/are you having? I'd love to know.

My lunch was completed by gravy

and followed by left overs of chocolate cake, persimmon cookies with pecans and a fresh batch of persimmon bread

The kids were really excited about Turkey day and they helped me clean up after lunch and we started decorating the house for Christmas.

But that, I will leave it for another post :)

What's going on?

For months now my posts have been very sporadic, impersonal and now come down to barely nothing.

I know you all that used to read me are wondering, what's going on and what happened to me, so today I'm gonna asnwer those questions.

A lot it's going on.

♥ Michelle started Kindergarten this year and I thought that would give me a lot of time for my self....Boy, was I wrong. Between meeting, field trips, school activities, homework and volunteer, sometimes I barely have time to breath.

♥ Gabriel is about to graduate from the Emerald Coast Autism Center. This coming December 15th to be exact. It's huge, it's all we ever wished for, that the therapies he was receiving there would work and make him better. They did. Along with this fantastic news, a fight started with the public school system that want for Gabriel to go back in the same school he was before, where he was mistreated, neglected and regressed so badly. All he wants is to walk to school with Michelle in the morning *sigh
This fight is literally consuming all my energy, I had to study countless law books, local laws, schools policies and county policies....well, you can imagine. The fight is not even half way over and I'm still in my position making phone calls, pleading his case, coordinating teachers, social workers and attorneys.....fun fun fun NOT!

♥ Thanksgiving is here. I don't know how that happened. Was Halloween just yesterday, no? I guess not. At least this year I have all my shopping done, all I have to think about is the cooking and today is the last day of the week of having any kind of obligations. Then I'm gonna hibernate in my kitchen and come out on Friday.

♥ My shops are doing ok but not as well as I wish they would. Normal consequence of being so all over the place lately and not being able to promote. But I'm still here, alive and crocheting.

Just wanted you all to know. Better things are coming :)

Halloween costumes!

This year the all family dressed up for Halloween even tho we went trick-or-treat only for one hour.

The kids thought it would have been funny to dress up in matching characters this years, so Gabriel Went as Super Mario Bros and Michelle was Princess Peach.

Hubby decided to go as a ninja

and I, of course, was his geisha! I tried many times to do mi make up with the white cream on my face but after failing the first 3 attempts, I give up and just did my eyes and lips lol

Too bad my camera doesn't take good pictures at night as there were some very interesting decorations.
