My giveaway.......almost.....

Can you believe I'm stuck on 99 followers!!!!  When I hit 100 then I'll explain the rules of the giveaway or if I get to 400 posts first, we'll celebrate that.  I've been into making lampshades so decided on this for my prize.

The lamp and shade go together.  

I've been at home for 3 days now and it's been kind of nice.  Today is so cold that I can feel it when I stand at my windows.  Nothing is melting and the ice is staying on the streets.  It's the third day for Leola's to be closed.  Our public schools and colleges are all still closed.  It's supposed to warm a little over the weekend then more snow and frigid temps.  So much for the groundhog seeing it's shadow.  Oh, well, it is what it is and I figure God must have felt like we all needed to slow down and appreciate what we have.  I'm so grateful to have a nice warm house and plenty of food when there are so many suffering & doing without right now.  Also, I think it was so good for the public schools to be closed for a few days and maybe get rid of some of the germs.  Seems like everyone had sick kids at home.

Hope everyone stays warm and pass this on so we can get on with the giveaway.  Thanks!

The winner is......

The winner of my give-away during Fall Open House is Laura Tennison and she's already been in to pick it up.  Congratulations, Laura, & thanks for visiting during open house and also, for being a follower on my blog.

It was an amazing open house.  The shop was buzzing almost continually and we heard so many wonderful comments and, thankfully, lots of people were buying.  It's so gratifying after you've worked your tail off to have your customers appreciate it.

I worked today and it was still busy.  Tomorrow, the quilt shop 3 doors from us, is having a huge seminar so should be another good day.  We are truly blessed.

Have a great week!!!
