Last Saturday I went to the annual Craft Christmas show at the United Methodist Church. What a surprise. There were no egg noodles and only 2 tiny little angel food cakes. I did find a nice lady to visit with and purchase some Avon things from.
She told me her name and gave me permission to use her photo but my old mind has forgotten it. Sorry dear lady if you are reading this and sorry it took me so long to get this in my blog. Wait, I think her first name is Pat. I hope that is true. There were lots of nice crafts there. I don’t have room in my place for more crafts although I do enjoy them.
I have to go now. Have a wonderful weekend. Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
I hope the storm passes you by,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely lady and its always a treat to go to the Christmas bazaars!!
she looks kind. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, although I don't have SAD I do struggle with depression so I can empathize. Stay safe, dear one. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI don't like this iffy weather either. It was 29 yesterday, going top be 70 Sunday, and back down to 35 by Tuesday. Too much wishy-washiness LOL
ReplyDeleteYes, we have gloomy weather predicted. I love the Christmas craft shows at our churches and schools, they will be coming up soon. Love your new blog design, Beth! So colorful!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
Beth, It's gray and cold here today...bummer. I like my sunshine. Tomorrow is to start out very nice, then rain later in the day and Nasty by Sunday...but it suppose to be up to 60 degrees. when it warms up then it rains. I was hoping to get lots of yard work done and wash my windows. I may do them , if nothing else. Hope you can find something fun or interesting this weekend. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteI don't mind a dreary day now and then, but don't like them day after day. I put on lots of lights in the house and pretend its the sun shining. : )
ReplyDeleteWe're having a bit of a gray day here, too, though the temperatures are much warmer than the past few days. The week-end is actually predicted to be rather nice.
ReplyDeleteI hope your Friday is a good one!
xo Nellie
What a nice lady:) I had SAD and moved away from Wisconsin and now I'm not sad anymore. I can take all the crazy weather but not the long gray overcast skies:(
ReplyDeleteWe have very few gray and dreary days in Arizona, so when one does come, it is actually a nice change. The craft show looks like it was fun! Hope your weather calms down and brightens up!
ReplyDeleteI don't suffer from SAD, but I do feel for people that do.
ReplyDeleteThe Avon lady looks sweet. Sounds like you enjoyed yourself.
Stay safe in that crazy weather.
Better late than never right? Nice picture! Our weather is actually fairly good for this time of year...I'm actually pleasantly surprised at the moment.
ReplyDeleteHello Pat I am sure that is your name I am glad you met our Beth.
ReplyDeleteOh take care Beth, HUG B
She/Pat is a lovely lady in her beautiful blue shirt. I really used to enjoy the church sales, but since I used to go with my mother, they're not the same anymore. Life changes, but I should try again...perhaps go with a friend.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you were able to get out and enjoy the craft show., I quit buying crafts, too. I have way too much already (unless I make it myself!;>) Hope you have a good weekend- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHi Beth. Hope u have a good weekend with some sunshine - Hugs Nita
ReplyDeleteOne of my boys gets down when it is weather like that. But now he's married I don't think he thinks of it too much now. :-)))
ReplyDeleteI am not aware of SAD...I suppose because we can still go out and about in our winter where I live.
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of the lady :)
I like "safe" storms!! I love to stay home and bunker down for a day and feel like it's o.k. to stay in my p.j.'s and eat all day!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if they have initials for that ;)
It's rainy here, but fairly warm. I think we're having chillier weather than we usually get, though.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I know you had a great time at the craft show. I love that kind of thing. We had some guests last week from Russia and they talked about how it is dark for most of the day in winter where they live. I would not do well with that!
ReplyDeleteWeather here will be nice until Monday then we may get what you had. Of course I'm talking about the weather.
ReplyDeleteCan I interest you in 1500 comic books?
It is a windy, windy day around here! I sure hope we don't get those severe storms! I am making noodles next week, please, please email me your address! I would be thrilled to send you some!! mypipeliner27@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteSo easy to suffer with SAD this time of year Beth, chillier weather predicted by Wednesday here. Hope it's not to bad where you are ,stay safe.
ReplyDeleteWarm hugs x
As I posted on my reply to you Beth, the weather here on the south coast of UK has bee quite pleasant for a couple of days, they forecast an icy blast for next week though. I love your new look, so seasonal.
ReplyDeleteI've started doing some crafting , making cards, so therapeutic, but a drain on the pocket money :-) I must post some up. Take care and wrap up warm.
Isn't it terrible when you can't remember someones name...................I love Avon, Tim says I buy to much....................lol
ReplyDeleteHope you are safe! The weather reports from down that way sound really scarey!
ReplyDeleteHey Beth:
ReplyDeleteHow you doing? i trust well.
Craft sale huh, do you know i have never been to one of those?
have a blessed week.

I go to a Methodist church here in GA - we have had a craft show there for years - and we always have a great turn out - it is so much fun. Sandie
ReplyDeleteWORRIED to death about you and your family there..so horrible seeing all the damage to Pekin and to Peoria..Until I hear some good news I will be holding you up in prayers.. XOXO
ReplyDeleteI'm just now reading this for the first time - after the tornado hit your area. Thank God you are okay -shaken up from the ordeal - but okay. Carole had notified as many as she could on your behalf, which I was thankful for. I've been watching the radar all afternoon and was afraid your area had been hit. Thoughts and prayers will be with you as you recover from the shock and your community gets put back together. Love and hugs, Mary
ReplyDeleteDear Beth ! My thoughts and prayers all time with you a long time you my dear friend, I'am so sorry for long time of stress ..I hope you are enjoy to read nice book today.
ReplyDeleteOh Beth I do hope you are OK after the storm. Hug B
