WHEWWWWWWW from the whole family. We are very, very lucky and once again, life gets put in to perspective.
I was talking to Nan, well not talking but writing, but really honestly I feel like I am talking to her when I write..well anyway I was saying I just didn't feel like I had anything blog worthy!!!So I guess I will give a rundown of what has been happening here in Polka Dot land blog worthy or not!!!
PARCELS OUT -cottages on their way to Nanette and something also off to T! My third and final Secret Stitcher Angel giftie off and on it's merry way, plus a couple silly cards out the door. Bet you
are wondering about this.....well we had a panel light in our kitchen that we have wanted to change for a loooooooong time. When I came back from the store one afternoon, retirement man had ripped it out and started on the job of rewiring, sanding and prepping for paint and texture - YIPEE!!! Very exciting and I can't wait for the finished results.
Bindings - 3 actually, but it's too late to get pictures of the other two. This time of year bu
siness really picks up! My Turkey and Merry Christmas quilts are back from being quilted and they are wonderful, so a couple of my own bindings to get done..another yipee!!!Today was a fun day at the zoo sharing the giraffes with some big and little friends.
What a great day and that baby has grown a couple feet already!! Had a wonderful lunch at The Elephant Bar - where else would we eat :-)??Driving home I definitely found something that was blog worthy 
........... when I drove by early in the morning on the way to the zoo it was $3.09 at the same station. With only 1/2 tank I definitely made a stop and did a little happy dance at the same time!! Then my final stop was at Vons for some dinner fixins. The deal of the day, get your flu shot and you get 10% off at the register. Now how could I possibly pass up that deal! Hope that everyone is thinking flu shots!!

you are ALWAYS blog worthy...=)...and something for me? yipes! so not necessary but i can't wait! =)))))
So glad of the good news! I can identify with the light thing...our house had one of those when we bought it. Reminds me of fluorescent lighting you see in gas station bathrooms. My husband removed ours when we renovated our kitchen. Handy hubbys are awesome. Thanks for sharing giraffe pics. :o)
Gas prices are lower here too and yesterday hubby filled up for $2.29 a gallon, lowest we've found. I hope the low prices last a while.
Happy news, indeed! Life IS Good!! You're always full of blog-worthy news and notes, keep 'em comin'! Hugs.

Glad to hear there is good news in your home! That little one of yours is just too cute!! I stopped by Nanette's blog and saw the beautiful thread catcher you made for her. Do you sell them? I would love to get one.
Oh that's good news about John's dad! I love the Elephant Bar although I haven't been in a long time bet you had a yummy lunch. I saw gas today for 2.55--makes me very happy :)
Glad to read that all is back to well in your family. We won't talk about the price of gas in NY. Although Price Chopper has this fuel advantage program and the other day I paid $1.69 a gallon. I had accumulated enough on my card for such a discount! Doing a bit of catchup here. Cute Pumpkin! Looks like you and Sharon had a great time. Life is indeed good! Cheers!

I paid 2.22 today but it is cheaper around town I hear. The cottages are off! You should get yours very soon. It has been very fun. It is always nice to read what is going on in Polka Dots and Rick Rack land.
