Is it Friday yet?!?!?

I have worked for 2 weeks in a row. Every day. I am only suppose to work 2 days a week. Oh well. I only have one more day and then I'm off until next Tuesday. Or so I hope!! :) I work in the kitchen at a private Christian school. The kids are hillarious. I just love being around them. Today a little kindergartener was running around the tables (our *cafeteria* is in the gym) to go talk to his teacher and another little girl was running the other way. Well they ended up plowing into each other and banged heads. They both ended up on the floor crying. I hated to laugh but it was so funny. The kindergarten teacher sat on the gym floor indian-style and put one on each of her knees and hugged them until they stopped crying. It was very endearing. :)

We're getting ready for our Thanksgiving trip to WI. Well at least somewhat. Hannah and I are doing a craft show with Gina (my SIL) the weekend after Thanksgiving. Hannah's been crocheting what she calls scarflettes. They're scarfs that are just a crochet chain with some fancy yarns. They are really cute. She's planning on asking $5.00 each. I think she should get that. I'm going to....hopefully.....make some cards and finish a felted purse to sell. I'll have to finish the purse here at home because there's not where to felt it up there. Gina has a front-load washer and the laundr-o-mat machines won't felt them. I haven't figured out why, but they don't. :(

It's gotten colder here in the western NC mts. Today it didn't get out of the 40s. I am hibernating tonight. Today Iwent to work, stopped to deposit my $$$, then came home. I've been home ever since. This is hibernating weather as far as I'm concerned!!

Kevin's got a tooth ache and will be going to the oral surgeon on Mon. They'll extract it and after it heals he'll be fitted for partials. Not too much fun if you ask me!!

Hannah's fealing better from the sinus infection she had over the weekend. That's good because she's no fun when she's sick!!! LOL!! :D

I guess that's about it from here. I'll try to post more often.
Thanks for checking this out.

How did the craft show go? Were the scarflettes a hit?

I think the reason front-loading washers won't felt is that they don't agitate the clothes nearly as much as top-loading models. Also, things felt best in really hot water & lots of laundromats don't have that.
