Well, I’m here in South Bend, IN. We keep trying to remind ourselves that we are actually living here now and not just visiting. But since we’ve only been here for about 24 hours, I think we have time to get adjusted. 😉 You all will be proud of me. One of the very first […]
Well, I think that this will be my last post from Louisiana! The sewing machine is officially packed up and my chair was just loaded onto the moving truck seconds ago! lol.

Well, I’ve had an interesting couple of days. I went out to get the white thread that I needed in order to do any more sewing. I happily found it on sale and everything. Made my purchase and was coming out of the store carrying my package and my daughter when I ran into a
