It is getting closer to Christmas!!!
Well I have been thinking about Christmas and such because. For one Im making Christmas presents this year and so I have to embroider 21 towels and also crochet some dish cloths for the gifts. Im also thinking about getting the quilts done that I promised my neices done as well. I know I better get hopping. Im also making aprons for Christmas baking on the 18th. I do really like to sew and create things from my own two hands. I sometimes wish that others would not put so much into the holidays as needing to get soo many presents. I hate that I have to buy not only for my family but also for all of the other children in the expanded family. I buy for my parents,brothers and spouses and the 5 neices and nephews. Then I have to get something for my cousins kids and that is 6 more kids plus one more on the way. I also need a white elephant gift as well for the other gift exchange. I feel that I need to supply gifts for my family but not for the cousins kids. I do not mind baking cookies and treats and taking down to share with the family but Im not really wanting to spend a lot of money on kids I see once or twice a year. I do not really have much in common with a few of my cousins or their spouses. I would rather remember what Christmas was about before it became so commercial.
