!!~~**Away for a Bit and other stuff**~~!!
Just wanted you all to know my hubby got a new job!! He starts Wednesday as a custodian for the local school district. Since this is the type of work he did back in Michigan for nearly 30 yrs. we're very hopeful that this will work out for him. He'll be starting on the first of October, this coming Wednesday morning.
I'm taking a bus back to Detroit later today. It will be nearly a 20hr ride. My son's best friend, Gary, is coming down to stay with us. He wants to make a new start for himself (and his wife and son who will be remaining in Detroit for the time being). He has a full size van and will take me to my oldest son's and load his van with as much of my belongings as we can cram in it and bring it all down with us. I have to be back by Wednesday morning to take Cabrylla to work since hubby will be at work when she needs to go in. It will be hectic but worth it in the long run. I have really missed having a lot of my stuff here, especially my sewing machines and all the fabric and goodies that go with them.
On those rare occasions that I'm not online at Pixies, I do love to sew.
So I'll be away from around 4 this afternoon, Central time, until sometime Wednesday. I'll be sure to let everyone know when I get back. 
We're getting a King-size bed delivered on Monday. So now I'll have a bed!!! No more sleeping on the couch for me. YAYYYYY!!! After exactly a year, I'll be able to sleep in the same bed with my hubby again. I doubt it will make any difference  , other than my back will feel better, but only time will tell.
Gary will now have my spot on the couch. I hope he enjoys it! LOL
So until Wednesday sometime, I bid you all a very fond adieu. I'll miss you all like crazy!!!! |

Well a hot fondue to you too.  Have a safe trip and hurry back. More than just hubby and Cabrylla will miss you 
Thank you for the notice. I think my monitor will tip over if I don't have "pixies_sugarsprinkles" lit up in the bottom corner of my screen.

I'm BAAAAACKKKK!!!!!
Hi Everyone!
I made it back around 5 this morning but was just too damn tired to check in before heading for bed. (Can you imagine that?? )
I'm drop-dead tired. We still haven't unloaded the van but that can be done later.
I found a few important things I had really wanted to find. But on the other hand I discovered some stuff of major importance to me was put into storage, rather than in my son's garage. That wouldn't be a problem except that we've had trouble keeping up the payments on the storage and there is a real possibility that everything that was there has been put up for auction. That means I no longer have a sewing machine, possibly some family pictures are gone, and some other irreplaceable things. I'm really quite upset about it but there isn't much I can do at this point.
I'm just glad to be home and back at my 'other' home, right here with my Pixie's family. |

SS, I'm so glad to have you home. You know you've had me and at least one other Pixie I know thinking about you and hoping you'd make it home safe.
Welcome back!

Hey SS I'm glad to hear that you made it home safe and were able to get somethings. It just means that you can get a new sewing machine for Christmas. Glad to see you back at your home here with us.

I guess it's not who I was thinking of.
Thanks Steph, dm383, and kleclere for the wonderful welcome home! It really means a lot to me to know I've been missed.
