Even though it is now February, I still have a hangover from the January blues that I seem to get every year. That is about the only kind of hangover I get. I know that made it sound like I want a hangover....I do not. I had a few of those during my earlier years and I really don't want to repeat that wonderful feeling.
I made my bedskirt. It looks marvelous! It was easy and fun to make. It makes my bed look so big and HIGH! I have the material to make my curtains. I really wanted to find some trim for the curtains, but I wasn't able to find what I wanted at the price I wanted to pay. I need 18 yards. So I have improvised.....I will let you see the finished product when I am....like....finished!....and you can tell me if it looks hokey (cheap). If this was my forever and ever house, I might pay for the trim I want, but unfortunately, this isn't the forever house. We are closer to that house, but not there yet. I got a pattern for the curtains for my kitchen. I am excited about that. I may be sewing alot this weekend. I really want to finish my bedroom before I go to South Carolina. I need to sew all weekend for sure! But I might need to sleep some too....we will see.
I can't remember if I told yall we were going to Las Vegas. Well, that trip has been cancelled. I didn't think I would care that we weren't going, but I guess it did cause it has made me even sadder. Suck it up Frannycakes!
We are, however, going to beautiful Italy. So I shouldn't be too sad should I? Dick and I don't seem to be able to talk about what we want to do there because he has been busy and I feel like we will just be going there with nothing planned. Vickie has been so nice with suggestions. I just don't want to be the one responsible for everyone having a good time. Too big a trip for that, right?
The shower is calling my name and if I don't go to the grocery now, we will be eating cereal all weekend. Hey! I may be on to something! Dick, take a deep breath....I will have "adult" cereal for you! I will take care of my man!
Talk to you all later! Tootles!

Fran,
Congats on finishing your bedskirt. I am looking forward to seeing the pictures when you finish your drapes. In your spare time"ha ha" you should desigh for Pottery Barn" or "Ikea". Did I tell you about our trip to the Orlando Ikea store. Oh my goodness--talk about retail therapy on a big box scale. Oh well, didn't buy a thing as it would have to be moved.
Please call me about Italy. Do not take a step into that country without planning a few days in Florence and the Tuscan countrside. So beautiful and romantic. My favorite place on earth, except for home.
Cheer up, spring will be here before we know it and we all (southern for youse guys) here in the south will be complaining about the humidity.
Later,
Nancy in Florida

You know I love Italy and am planning a trip in May. You need to stop in at 'Slow Travel' There is a link on my blog. It is a great site and you will find oodles of information, and a chance to talk about your trip.
It will help to pass these dreary winter months~ come visit!
A presto
Ohhh- Vegas pales in comparison to Italy. WooHoo!
Yeah...I need a shower too. But first? I've got to run. And then eat breakfast. Afterwards? The grocery store. I live such a wild life.
