No crocheting done

Ok I have to admit I didn't get any crocheting done yesterday. I spent most of the day researching jobs, then I worked from 6Pm to 10PM. I'm going to try to get some done today.
I have to work from 8am-1230pm then again from 6pm-10pm. Maybe doing my long break I can get time to work on the dedication outfit.
Black Friday is over. Traffic was crazy here. I am amazed every year at how many people get up in the middle of the night to go shopping on their day off. The stores were packed, with the exception of most grocery stores. I have never participated in black friday nor do I have intentions of participating.
To others who did brave the crowds and cold weather, I hope you were able to all that you went to for. I know they have some great sales yesterday morning. Sorry, but for me it's just not worth it. Loss of sleep, angry crowds, & disgruntled mothers.
Free feel to leave in comments what you were able to pick up yesterday.

Day after Thanksgiving

Hello everyone, Hope you had a very thankful thanksgiving. We now have enough leftovers to last a week. I'm not one of those that gets up early on black friday to shop, there are so few days I get to sleep in that I'm not missing that to fight crowds of nasty people to save a couple dollars.
Now that Thanksgiving is over I'm going back to crocheting. This week I worked more than usual, thanks to the economy, and haven't had time to crochet. I'm going to spend some time today working on the dedication outfit. It is taken me longer than I expected, it has been the hardest pattern for me to follow. I don't think it looks quite right. Of course, everything I make I think looks too small. It's been so long since I had a baby, that I have a hard time looking at something and sizing it up. My baby is 17 years old, and getting ready to leave for college.
I hope everyone spent time with loved ones, and had at least one thing to be thankful for. Remember everything you go through God is with you, and give Him praise for the difficult times as well as the good times. Every difficult time strengthen you for His glory.

Happy Thanksgiving

Hope everyone is having a Happy Thanksgiving. I have to get the house ready for guest, so this will be short. I'm still working on the dedication outfit. It has been the most confusing pattern I've done. Baby Evan Flack was born Nov. 7th 2008. He was a big baby, I hope the outfit fits him when it's done. I think they are waiting til the end of Dec. to dedicate him.
Be thankful for all you have and don't have. There is a reason you don't have the things you want.
Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms. Ps 95:2

christening outfit

I know it's been awhile. Things have been crazy here. Hubby started a second job this week, and I've been trying to get all the work I can between my 2 jobs. This past week I helped with a wellness clinic for AEP. I was in Bluefield,WV and VA. This was first time I had ever taken a trip by myself, and stayed in a hotel. I guess if I do enough of these I'll get comfortable traveling alone. I have 2 clinics this week, but they are close to home. One of them is only a couple mins from my house.
I'm still crocheting and right now I'm crocheting every second I can. Our worship leader's wife had their baby on Friday 11/7/08. I requested to make his dedication outfit, but had put it off too long. Now I'm trying to get it finished. I'm working with a new pattern and it's been very confusing. It's not wrote in the style I'm use to. I have had to rip it out and start over 3 times. I think I have it now, at least I hope so. I have the sweater almost completed. When I get the outfit completed I will post a picture. I feel honored to be able to make these for people who appreciate them. I love making things and giving them away. Whenever there is a need for something crocheted, God always provides the funds for the materials. When I finish this I have another outfit to finish. Then I'm going back to making hats for awhile. It's getting cold and the cancer center and neonatal units need them badly.
I found someone at church who is taking treatments at our local cancer center and she is willing to take the hats there. I hope to be able to send new ones every couple weeks. I would like to spend 1 week crocheting for the cancer center and 1 week for the neonatal unit.
Have blessed week and remember to pray for lost souls, those hurting, and strength for the believers.
