Update at Bottom. Whew! I have been going threw the house to try to "down size" myself. There are lot's of things I have for "just in case" (gift boxes, small gifts, an extra collander, 8 bread pans ... Reg kept shopping for different ones to change the crust on his bread ) that there will be no room for if we move into the manufactured home. So - we are going to have 2 carport sales. One this coming Saturday with the wild and crazy what we don't need, have never used, why did we get this stuff...and one later after we've had a chance to really see the space we will have in our new home. Here's a picture of what the living room looks like. Now - just think - We are having a tree trimming party on Sunday - Don't worry honey, it will all be gone and clean again! UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE It was one of the hottest days this "wonter", in the 80's. We only sold about half our stuff! Not to worry, whenthe time to move gets a lot closer we will have another Car Port Sale. Boo Hoo, I only sold one Christmas Stocking .
If you ever have wondered what Reg & Val are up to, here are some of our pictures for U 2 check out :)
Finally - Arizona --- it's cold cold cold
It's 11pm and only 54 degrees. BURRRRRR

Christmas Stockings Keeping Me Busy
Last year, just a couple of weeks before Xmas, the PBS show
"Sewing with Nancy" had an episode on serging to make Christmas Stockings. It was so close to Christmas I only had a chance to make 4. I fully intended to get back to that project in the summer and make a bunch to sell on ETSY. Of course, that didn't happen. BUT just a few days before Thanksgiving pulled out all my notes and the DVD I had made of the program and I got sewing. Althogether now I have made 22 of them. (see Picture) . They are cotton, machine washableand fully lined - also with Christmas fabric. It is becoming a complusion - I love doing them. We are having a carport / sizing down carport sale this Saturday and I am going to, hopefully, sell them. AzGrandma
