One more delivery

Still trying to put it all in my head...one more week and a new year  will be here. Where did the time go..... oh, if I sit it will all come rushing back to me so I think for now I will not. Yesterday the mail brought 2 more gifts!

Lynda Ruth sent me these lovely crocheted stars for my tree. I love the color, so deep and rich red. They look pretty on my tree.
then the other was from dear Vickie....

a beautiful origami fabric star. She chose lovely fabrics for this one....a bit of sparkle and some print. I had wanted to try this pattern but seemed to run out of time. Thank you both for gifting me this year.
I just had to try my Quesadilla maker.... of course I did. I love gadgets and tools of the kitchen.

Yum.... lunch was very good. Going to love the many different possibilities with this. Quick and simple. I had to get romaine at the market so why not get the fixings and enjoy a quesadilla. The real purpose of my errand was to go to Lowes where they had storage bins on sale... for the Christmas stuff to be packed away next week. I always dread this part of the celebration. Getting all the empty boxes down and organizing them then putting them back. This year should be easier since they will not be going into the high cupboard. Instead they will be on the shelving unit. Anyone who really knows me knows that I am an organized person so having the garage in disarray is driving me crazy. Usually it is New Years Day or the day after that it all begins. Why does it take longer to put away than it did to get it all out!?  Oh well.
So, coffee is finished and it is not yet 5am. Maybe I can just curl up and watch the news something cheerful on the TV. Glad we had time to chat today. Thank you for the kind words and for your friendship.
