I was so happy to hear from my sister that she got a new (to her) car! She just got a 2000 Honda Accord. She’s needed a newer model family car for a long time; she’s been “making do” with older, less reliable cars for a very long time.
We belong to a very large, extended family, and we are all so very excited for her, to have this new car! We want to help her make it as great an experience as possible; she deserves to have a few nice things! Life has thrown quite a few curveballs at her, and this is something nice we can try to help “keep nice” with a few things here and there.

One of my biggest joys is creating things – I love to make things with my hands. It brings me great joy to decorate my house with things that I have made. I am a “true blue” crafter. One of my favorite “crafting” past-times is sewing. I love to sew quilts, quillows, pillows, curtains, clothing, bedspreads - I love to sew! One of my favorite pastimes is wandering through as many fabric stores, just drooling over all of the fabulous fabrics and trims, dreaming of all of the great things I could create with all the great “stuff” I find there. I especially love looking at designer upholstery fabric, dreaming about how great my old sofa would look with that fabric on it!

Well it seems that my sister may be the only one in the family that will really get what she wants for this Christmas since no one is responding to my email that I sent out weeks ago asking for gift suggestions, except my kid sister who didn’t waste any time sending me request for all cotton scrubs for her to wear at work. She even sent me the direct link to site that has a ton of medical uniforms at http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/Original-Scrubs/ that she has used before and is thrilled with the prices, the quality and the various styles that they offer there.
It just drives me crazy to have to wait until the last minute to have to find all the presents that are required of me to purchase for our ever growing family. With Christmas less than two months away there really isn’t a whole lot of time left especially since I do most of my shopping online and you have to wait for your purchase to be delivered, which of course takes time.

One thing I can say about mens underwear is that it is pretty darned easy to order them online. I don’t know about you but when I need new underwear I have to go out shopping and look through endless piles and racks of under garments and then try all the ones that I have found on. What a pain that is considering that you have to (and really need to) keep your own underwear on underneath the new ones, for sanitary reasons of course. It is so hard to get the real feel of things that way, if you know what I mean.
I have been buying my son’s and my husbands underwear for as long as I remember and now I have been purchasing them online which has been a time and money saver, both of which are awesome. I can usually find good deals and free shipping is always a must when ordering anything online, if not those shipping and handling charges can really rack up the final total bill and we can’t be having that these days.

Tea is one of my favorite beverages. I love to drink a cup of tea in the morning when I first get up. My youngest son also enjoys tea when he first gets up. I learned to love tea when I was a little girl. My parents drank tea in the morning, the basic black pekoe tea with sugar and milk. It was a great treat to be allowed to have a sip of it in the morning!
