Wow, it's been over two weeks again...

I can't believe how time flies when you're busy. It's been a rough couple of weeks, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger, right?
Martin's been working long, long days and is so stressed it's not even funny. I've been trying to keep my head down and ride out the storm.
Last night we finally settled down after he had worked all day plumbing the new house with Adam at a reasonable hour to watch a new movie I had picked up. If you haven't watched it yet, go out and rent "The Prestige", can't go wrong with Hugh Jackman. **sigh** Love those abs. A great suspenseful show. Also loved "The Illusionist" with Edward Norton we watched a few weeks ago, another show in the same genre.
Grace has been fighting this yucky cold where she wakes up in the morning with her eyes completely glued shut by mucus and gunk. Gross! She doesn't seem to mind, until you try to clean it off, but it sure looks painful. Needless to say her coughing all night and Martin tossing and turning has not made for restful nights these last few weeks.
I did go to the Spring 27-Hour crop here in Bellingham last weekend. Got a little bit done, but not as much as I would have liked. Isn't that always the case? Most of the problem lies in the fact that I don't know how to pack effectively for a crop. I always want to take all my supplies including the kitchen sink. But then I don't end up using half of them so that is a waste of time loading and unloading my junk. If I just take a couple of things to work on I usually forget a part of the project and halfway through get stuck. Then I get frustrated and put the whole thing away unfinished, which isn't' really the point of the whole thing.
I have another crop coming up in April. It's the Treasury of Memories sponsored "Mighty Max" crop. The fee is $100 and all monies go to the Mighty Maxwell Guild, to support Children's Hospital Uncompensated Care Fund so that EVERY child in the Pacific Northwest has access to quality medical care. So open your checkbooks and help me out here... Anything will be appreciated, we are trying to raise $10, 000 for the fund. It's a great cause and I can't wait to see all the wonderful ladies that participate in this fundraiser.
