Dog, cell phone and craftiness

I know my title sounds crazy...but that's what the last few days have been. As usual we've been crazy busy. I have gotten most of my Christmas stuff out and up. I still have to decorate the tree, but I'm waiting to make sure the lights all still work. I have to get an extension cord tomorrow, so hopefully tomorrow night I'll get the tree done. I've looked for several years for new Christmas stockings for Wesley and I that I liked and have not been able to find any. I decided I was going to make them this year. I'm not quite done with them but...



I think I want to add ribbon or something to the top where it is turned down, so look back for new and improved Christmas stockings!

Wesley and I went to a friend's house for a hog cooking. Yep you read that right a hog cooking. I didn't think to take pictures of the hog cooking but I'm sure you can imagine. The took the hog, sliced him down the middle and put him over fire. You could still see the legs and head. It was a little weird, but quite yummy.

I normally don't go anywhere without my cell, but it was dying and Wesley had his, so I left mine at home charging while we went to the hog cooking. When I walk in the door, I see what I think is a remote control in the floor. The dog has used one of the remotes as a chew toy in the past. At closer inspection....it is, you guess it, my cell. The phone is unplugged, the battery is off and the phone in general is in about 5 pieces...



I put the battery back where it went, hoping to at least be able to get my numbers out of it. No luck! Of course I have no insurance...but will be getting it for mine, Lauren and Wesley's phone. Lauren's phone went flying out the window and broke. She got a new one, well it was refurbished. It worked about 2 days and the microphone went out. You could call her all day but you wouldn't be able to hear her. A cousin gave her another one...so hopefully we can talk to her again on Monday. I spent way more than I should have on a blackberry on ebay. Hopefully it'll be here by Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest.

so all you whores whose number I had...you'll have to give it to me again but wait til I get the new phone!

Sounds like fun! You should use your embroidery machine to add some snowflakes, wreaths, or holly at the top. Or add something red for some nice contrast. They look great!
The hog thing does sound weird. I am sorry you had to spend lots of money on a new phone. I'll e-mail you my number.

Jenna missed the tree trimming party because she had to work as a hostess at the local restaurant that she works for now.
