The Winkle Fairy !!!





Hey Everyone !!! This is me getting ready yesterday morning. Now before I start this. I will be 45 in May of this year. Yep.... I also have the luck of having the bad skin of our Duncan family gene. Well I started putting on my makeup... you know fill in all those creases and landfills with that putty stuff that is suppose to match your skin tone, but doesn't... This was after I put moisturizer all over my face. about a gallon.. LOL I am used to doing that all the time. Well.... I then started with the eye shadow... Now remember I have not worked ( outside the home) since February 2009... and I have been sick, with no reason to wear makeup, in about 2 months... Well.. I go and start with highlighter at the top over eye lid and under my Brow,,, My brow is going away for some reason and I am having to pencil me a brow.... LOL That is another story... That highlighter goes on great... Then I go for eyeshadow in the middle of my eye lid.. Well I started going across real slow.. the brush started going over things, like speed bumps... WINKLES !!! urghhh. I couldn't even get the eye shadow to go on smooth. Looked like I had lines running downward... OMG.. What is going on ??? Has this came on all of a sudden? What Happened? Then... I look in the mirror.. My whole eye lid has been swallowed by the eye socket !!! Oh Please.. Now what do I do...Do I just put eyeshadow on the top near bottom of my brow.. That is the only part of my lid you can see!!!! Is that even a part of your eyelid??? I can't wear brown shadow up there, can I??? I didn't think so...Even though we did wear bright green and blue in the seventies !!! LOL When did The winkle Fairy leave me this wonderful gift of age? Whenever it was, I didn't even see this coming !!! I can live with the winkles beside my mouth, Those are my smile winkles...LOL And I can almost live with the double chin.. It is loose skin.. ( I can tell myself that, if I want too) But having absolutely NO Eyelids.... I don't know... I love to paint up my face !!! You can stop laughing now !!!


Anyway, I finished painting on my face and dried my hair.. Oh, I did cut on my hair myself... It was bugging me. Put on Dress clothes ( go to work clothes) and this is final picture.


Well, I will be 45 in May... If you see that winkle fairy around you, Kill her for me !!!

PS... Please excuse all Freckles in first picture. They are freckles aren't they? Please don't tell me they are AGE SPOTS !!! Just shot me NOW !!!

Cross Stitch Post !!!!





I am feeling better lately. I had better not jinx myself with saying that I feel better. LOL I have a picture of framed birds by designer Valerie Pfeiffer. I had these framed at Hobby Lobby during one of their 50% off frames and services. I thought they came out great! I finally got around to hanging them last night.



I also have been stitching on 2 Valentine Freebies. One from The Sampler Girl and the other is from Primitive Betty. I stitched the Be Mine with some thread that a friend from the Netherlands sent me. I really like that thread.






I am going to make these both into little pinkeeps to put in a basket. As soon as I get my sewing machine moved in my room and can find the floor in the front room. LOL

It didn't take long to stitch these... Next is my 2 little future projects. I work on these little charts when I turn in to bed at night. I listen to the TV because my hubby is an Andy Griffith Show person and we have seen every episode. So I stitch and listen to Andy. It is like having a TV screen in your head. I know that words and see the pictures. LOL
These 2 charts are by Designer Brenda Gervais. I stitch some of her models. I thought these would be cute for Easter. Here is a link to her web site. http://www.countrystitchesonline.com/
She also designs Needle Punch & Jewelry. That is all for today.
Mom has a doctors appointment today. We are headed to town as we say. We used to live in the country but the city has moved out here to us. LOL I am excited to just Get Out Of This House !!!! Till later !!! Have a great day !!!

LOL #8 - Nothing More Today.
With being sick since we moved in, I told Hubby last night I think this place is Haunted... I have been sick since we moved in... LOL Dewayne just laughed at me me and said. " I am not moving, Period." This was after he had been outside for 3 hours trying to unfreeze water pipes and has been trying to unfreeze since Monday.
Now... I didn't say anything about moving... I didn't even mention that if it starting icing or snowing, Me , Raeanne and babies is headed South to Childersburg. ( my mom's house) We both are total electric.. Mom has gas logs and Heat . LOL

Cross Stitching with Mittens On !!!

It is Colder than a _______ here in Alabama. ( you can fill in the blank) I am not complaining one bit. Maybe a little.... I know my northern friends have been freezing for awhile now, not to mention the snow. The Almanac said this was going to be a cold weather. How do they get these things right?....

I have been getting some stitching done. I finished Housework by Lizzie Kate. I had to get out in the 16 degrees this morning to run and get black seed beads for her 2 eyes. That is Love... Only needed 2 beads but have to buy a whole package. I have every color I thought, till I was looking for black ones. I went to Hobby Lobby... No Beads in Cross stitch section... went to Michael's, no beads in cross stitch section. So, what did I do?.. I went in the jewelry section and found this round case with black, dk gray, white, clear, and silver beads. Problem solved. Had to go buy some groceries.. Yea, I know... I did not buy all the bread and milk out !!! lol There is still some left on shelves. That always happens in the south when they call for snow. Yes ! We are to have snow on Thursday.

I have been working on the heirloom afghan. I will have to get a picture posted. I do have a picture of the Housework. I am going to make it into a pillow. Planning to put it out in the sun room when it stops being a junk room. Here is picture of Housework. Not to good. Blue linen is always had to get to come out clear in picture. I did change the word Croak color to mulberry.

I am also working on the Cricket Collection's Halloween Ornaments. They are a lot of fun to stitch because of the specialty threads and different color linens.
I am also going to start stitching along with the Olympics on Melissa's 2010 Winter Olympics Stitch a long. Take a look here.. http://2010olympicsal.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2009-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&updated-max=2010-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&max-results=1
Well, I have to go stir the chili !!! Stay warm everyone !!!
