So here’s the thing… Lately I have been more drawn to “real life” than to this Internet wonderland. I have been sewing and shopping and neglecting my blog reading and quote finding duties. As the holiday season is almost upon us things will only get worse. But I’m not quitting nor even going on hiatus. I just might be more intermittent for while, and my regular feature, Quotes From Here and There – you might not see that for a few weeks. Unless I just happen to come across something that must be quoted. You know how it is.

Not that it’s easy to stay away from the Internet, especially when I go to one of the three blogs I’m still reading daily and find stuff like this. Ooooo pretty! Thanks LeeAnn. Also found via LeeAnn and Hello Kitty Hell, this Flickr set of Hello Kitty cupcakes.

But anyway… the last few days I’ve been quilting until my fingers are sore and then keep quilting some more because I love it. I have more sewing I need to do. I’m sewing for Christmas again and just now getting started. Yikes! And there’s that jacket I’m going to make for myself but which I should put off until after I’ve done the Christmas presents but it’s getting cold and I really want that jacket now before it gets really cold and a lightweight jacket won’t be enough. Oh, what to do! Actually, not really a problem. I can finish each thing in two or three days.

I’ve already been doing a little Christmas shopping. It sort of seems too early but it’s really not. Thanksgiving is next week and not long after that everything will get kind of crazy and urgent.
