Dang!!

I swear that I have not been a slacker for the last two months!!!! My laptop was down with a broken cord that was just miracleously fixed tonight!!! YEA Nick....thank you so very much!!

I do not even know where to begin with the updates...
Christmas was good!! Shawn was lucky enough to make it home for a couple of days for Christmas. We (mostly I) moved us into a new place closer to my work.
News Years was lonely since Shawn was not home. And the puppies (Mojo aka Cash and Chunky) went to new homes :( It was heartbreaking for me and I still do not want to talk about it. We did however keep the brown puppy who has since been named...Rolo aka ZoomZoom!! We STILL do not have a working camera so the only pictures I have are the ones taken on my blackberry. I did go and visit Shawn on one of his rigs for a weekend, that was an experience! It was nice to actually see for myself what it is that he does.
We also finally got a couch!! Which may not seem like a big deal but it is to me after sitting on camping chairs for the last 5 months! Since no washer/dryer but I guess one step at a time.
Lily got spayed so we wont have anymore "accidents", as much as we love our accident we cannot handle another batch of them!

With Valentines Day around the corner I decided to try out my nonexistent crafty side and am attempting to make Shawn a quilt of denim patches from my old jeans and some flannel. In order to accomplish this task I got my Valentines gift early from Shawn today....my very first sewing machine!!! Please let me know of any secrets or tricks you may have to make my first sewing/quilting experience a nice one!!!

Hopefully from here on out I will be better at keeping our blog up to date now that my laptop will be able to charge/power up!!! Hope everyone had a wonderful new year!
