Yes, I've been doing those things.
I'm working at my uncle's greenhouses making wreaths for Christmas. If you're local and are looking for something new to try this season - maybe starting a new tradition - you should try making your own wreath. They offer classes if you're interested. It's fun and it smells so good when you walk in the greenhouse!
As for the wearing of different shoes, well, luckily I caught that before heading to work yesterday. I looked down at my feet and something just didn't jive. It took me several moments to figure out that I had two different sneakers on. I thought oh man, Patty, you're losing it and then I went in to the living room to see if the kids could figure out what was wrong with my ensemble. They looked me over and got nothing so I told them to look at me from head to toe and then Sarah figured it out.
Other than that, let's see.... what else is going on around here.... The kids just got their school pictures and they look so mature. Sarah thought she got the wrong picture because it didn't look like her.... Report cards came home yesterday and the grades were very good across the board for Sarah and Ben. Todd and I are very proud.... Sarah is nursing a sore toe. She ran to get into bed last night and whacked her baby toe on Ben's bed post. It's a lovely shade of purple (her toe, not the bedpost).... Todd is waiting for a calm day to finish cleaning the chimney so we can start the coal stove. The lights came on up at Blue Mountain last night (it's about two miles from my house), so that means the cold is officially here.... I just ordered the Twilight series to see what all the hubbub is about.... My mind is aflutter with things to do/make/buy for Christmas.... I think that about wraps it up. Time is flying the closer we get to December. Busy busy busy!
:-)
Oh Patty that sounds soooo familiar! I am in the muddled up jumble of thinking about Christmas but trying to WRITE school reports! I haven't got my shoes mixed up yet, but I did get the time for my hair appointment wrong by 4 hours today!

You are definitely soooo like me! Done the dif shoe thing
but didn't catch it while still at home!!! I went to a
Designer House tour this spring with friends and had on
a blue and a black sandal (at least same style). They still
tease me about that.
Thinking about making a wreath. I'll check out the site.

LOL!!! i've actually done that before too....lol...
the wreath making sounds fantastic...that beautiful smell alone makes me jealous of your daily jaunts to the nursery...
& yes..it is getting cold FAST! our little squirrels have such big bushy tails already...i think we are in for a freezing winter...maybe that means we'll get lots of crafting time in? or it could mean we'll be crazy from saying "PLEASE stop squabbling!!!!" 8 million times...ugh! i think i need to get some baileys for my coffee...lol
