Funny cat video

I saw this link on Kristina Werner's blog.  So funny!  I don't know how to embed it into my blog post so here is the link.

scrapbook.com commercial is pretty cute!

Check out this cute video from scrapbook.com here.  I have purchased items from them.  I got a good price and they ship really, really fast!  I would buy from them again...they did NOT pay me for this endorsement.  I wish they would but they did not.

I need to remember the real meaning of Christmas.

I was reading the Nancy Creative blog this morning and it really struck a cord with me.  The real meaning of Christmas is not the decorations that I do or do not get put up but it is the plan that God gave us through His son Jesus to redeem us from our sins.  I get to feeling a little guilty about not plowing through a whole list of things that I think Christmas should include.  I get alot done but never quite enough done to make me feel accomplished.  What a burden I put on myself.  I need to enjoy the season and remember all the blessings that the Lord has given to me.  I hope you can do the same.

Do you have to interview people for jobs? This is funny.

I came across this funny job interview on Jenny's Blog here.  What's funniest about it is that I can totally see that happening.  Funny...sad...crazy.

Shari has made the cutest ornament from switch plate covers

I am so amazed at this gorgeous ornament made from switch plate covers.  Shari is really talented but this is over the top in my book.

I love Christmas movies

Well, the best thing about November to me is that I break out the Christmas movies!  I have a few Thanksgiving movies but not as many as I have of Christmas movies.  I love the older ones best..."Miracle on 34th Street", "The Bishop's Wife", and the coup de gras for me is "It's a Wonderful Life"!  Oh boy, I just love watching those movies.

I saw the cutest pin made from recycled denim

I found this adorable recycled denim pin by Veronica Goff over here.  The ladies at our church are cutting up old jeans to make quilts for the kids at the Baptist Children's Home.  They have scraps that would work perfectly for this project.  I ordered the Tim Holts tattered floral die.  It came today and I cannot wait to play with it.  I hope to use this as a "make and take" for the annual Ladies Christmas Gathering at the church next month.  I think that will be double recycling on the jeans.  I will get a picture of one of the quilts to put on the blog.  We are going to be tying them this weekend.  Kristine and Sue are working hard on sewing the finishing edges, etc.  I am amazed at how well they turned out.  The quilts are for teens so the denim is perfect material.
