I'M BACK !!! :-)

I'm back to posting to my blog. I was away at EDAC (Enchanted Doll Artists Conference) last week. This week I have been here in Las Vegas helping put on ODACA (Original Doll Artist Council Of America). It was a FANTASTIC Day!! The luncheon was FANTASTIC!! Everyone enjoyed ODACA DAY! It was so nice making new friends, seeing friends and meeting ODACA's newest Artists. I did not get to take any pictures as I was way to busy sitting up the Luncheon, Helper Dolls, Table Favors, etc etc. I was very busy BUT loved every minute of it. I was happy to help.

I'm going to be working on new dolls. I'm sending some dolls to various places for display and for challenges. I'll finish working on 2 RR Cookbook Journals and get them in the mail. They are way late. SORRY!!! I have a Pincushion swap I have to mail out. It's ready to mail. :-)

My house has been wall to wall with my children and grandchildren since mid June. My son left this morning for his home in Texas. My daughter, her husband and my 3 grandchildren and one of their friends leave tomorrow afternoon to go back to their home in PA. GOSH!!! My home will be quite. I won't know what to do!!! I sure will miss them. It's been nice having them around.

My granddaughter Brittany had surgery on her ankle today. They had to reconstruct her ankle inside. Long story..... She will be in the split they have on her now for 2 weeks, then she will be
in a hard cast for 6 weeks, then she will be in a soft cast for 4 weeks, then she will go to PT for 8 weeks. She won't be back to herself until Dec.

Just wanted to touch base with everyone. I haven't posted in awhile.
Have A Wonderful Day
Love & Hugs

HELLO OUT THERE IN BLOG LAND

Hello OUT THERE IN BLOG LAND. I've been so busy I haven't had much time to sleep. LOL
I'm working on lots of things and I'm leaving for EDAC (Enchanted Doll Artists Conference) on Tuesday. You know, I always have a year to get ready for EDAC, one would think that was plenty of time to be ready way ahead of time. NOPE!! NOT ME!!! I'm working as fast as I can. hehehehe!! Got lots of loose ends to tie before I leave.

I don't know if I will post again before I leave or not. If not, I will post pictures, etc of EDAC when I get home. That will be July 21st. Please don't expect to see any post that day or several days after that. LOL I have ODACA here in Vegas a few days after I get home from EDAC. :-)
Soon after I will post pictures and details. I WILL. :-)
Love & Hugs
