How many of you watch the Charlie Brown specials during the holidays? I do! My siblings and I watched them every year as children, and I still watch them now. I can still remember us kids getting excited when the commercials started popping up on the TV... and my Dad grumbling about how we'd seen the shows before... and my Mom telling my Dad that we are only kids once. LOL
SCHOOLWe got our midterm results. The instructor listed the grades on the white board:
A's - 3
B's - 6
C's - 4
D's - 0
I said to myself, "Self... at least you didn't get a D" *whew* I really thought I got a C, but was secretly hoping for a B. I literally had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I saw my test. I was one of the 3 people who got an A! (I *must* be a really good guesser!) Talk about a huge relief off my shoulders. Funny thing about one of the questions I got wrong... I rarely change my answers once I put them down, because the first one is usually right. I even debated in my head when I changed it. And guess what? The first answer I put down was right! Doh!
I spent the weekend writing papers for class. The first was a 4-page case study. The second was our group project paper (again, We're doing Ford -- just a different slant). The last few weeks of the semester is going to be hectic... again!
RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS
A few weeks ago, Jo from Tuscon RAK'd me with some stitchy goodies. I've been remiss in putting them on my blog.
BLOG GIVEAWAY
A few weeks ago, Katrien of Little Stitches sponsored a blog giveaway in honor of her 30th birthday. Guess who was the winner? Moi! Here's what she sent me:
STITCHY STUFF
Let's see. I finished an ornament for an exchange, but can't show pics until it's been received. I finished "Blessed Be", but won't show pics until I make it into something. This will be going to a new home also. Last night, I was able to do some stitching on TMQ. Not much, but a little is better than nothing, right?
JUST CUZ...
I wanted to share what sits on my fireplace mantle.
I appreciate each and every kindnesses my online friends have shown me over the past year. Thank you very much!
