Made by Me!!


I have seen everyone create wonderful things on their blogs. It's my turn. I made this garland using and old book, chipboard and some old Christmas ribbon. I learned how to make "lollys" and burned the hell out of my fingers with the glue gun. Am I proud? Dam right! Time to watch the Superbowl. For today - Life is good.

Happy Birthday Andy & The Blizzard of 2011

Well, it hit; the blizzard to end all in Chicago. Last night we had snow thunder, lightning and winds the likes I have never seen before. We are literally snowed in today. At about 2 they managed to plow our street. Our work has no power and we decided to walk there to check on the building. Unbelievably a man on a snow mobile picked us up. He was going at least 35 mph and going right through red lights since we were the only vehicle on the road. His name was Daryl, I told him he was my angel - the Lord does work in strange ways. Anyway, Andy is a year older, we are all safe and warm, and this will be a birthday he will never ever forget!
