Holiday Gift Plans

Well, since funds are always tight for us, this year my daughter wants an 18" doll. I have a springfield doll that I plan on making a wardrobe for and giving the whole thing to her for Christmas. I am also teaching her how to sew as she is working on some badges for Brownies. (Girl Guides of Canada) She has no idea about this. I will also crochet a few things for her new doll as well.

For hubby, I plan on making him a sewn shirt. He picked out the pattern and the fabric. He always gets something made by me for Christmas and he loves it! It's usually pajamas, but this year he wanted a shirt made of thermal knit fabric with red skulls. :)

And for my son, I plan on making him a pair of flannel pajamas. His first had made item from me!

So Very Sick

I have been sick in some way since August. It started out with chest pains and having a hard time breathing. Finally, in October, we discovered it was my asthma acting up. Just when I get started with my puffers, I had to go to the hospital to get a different puffer as the one my doctor put me on, was not enough. Oh, that happened on my birthday. Nice way to spend the evening. A couple of days later, I now have a nasty chest and head cold, but the good thing is, I can breath at least. Just not through my nose. I know, TMI! But at least the nasty chest pains are gone. I will gladly take a cold over those pains any day!
