About Me
- EnStitches
- Hi, my name is Amy and this blogging is new to me so here goes, I'll give it a whirl. I have 2 beautiful daughters who are both married to wonderful husbands and I have 2 beautiful granddaughters, ages 3 and soon to be 6 years old. They are my heart!! I have always enjoyed working out to stay in shape and boxing is my all time favorite thing to do now. I have been boxing for fitness for just over a year now. It is totally addicting and I love it. If you are interested in boxing for fitness check out www.hadleysboxing.com. My passion is my sewing. So much so I wish I had more time to do it. The "Melissa's Bag" you see displayed is the one I just did for my daughter. She put in a special request for this tote bag. I had alot of fun designing this one with her. She is also very talented and has her own business which you can check out at www.offthewallhome.com. I also took a couple of the fabric pieces I had left over and made her a picture frame. I forgot to take a picture of it but she is going to take one of it and send to me, so I will be posting it soon. This blogging is new to me so be patient as I learn more about it. Thank you for visiting.

It's cleaning time
It's thursday evening and I am housecleaning and doing laundry. I try to do this on wednesday or thursday nights so that it frees up my time on the weekends for my yard work and other things (such as sewing). Oh the single life! I started doing this years ago when we were busy planning my oldest daughter's wedding and every weekend was tied up. And sometimes just sometimes I might just do nothing on the weekend. Do you ever have plans and then change your mind because all you want to do is stay home and do nothing? But isn't this way of life everyone's. Anyway, this weekend I have a retirement party to go to (unless I change my mind again and not go) and my neighbors are leaving again for vacation in Florida. They just got back from Michigan week before last. I always take care of their cats and mail and paper and such while they are away. I seem to be the one neighbor that looks after things while everyone else goes out of town. I don't mind though. One day it will be me going somewhere fun all the time. And when the Good Lord blesses me I will have that special someone to share my life with. This is really coming across as a "poor pitiful me" story and actually I don't mean for it to. I am quite happy and he has blessed me with so much such 2 beautiful daughters and 2 grandaughters and the rest of my family and my friends. My granddaughters really light this world up! They are so much fun and such a joy to be around. But aren't all grandchildren. Well I hear the dryer buzzing so I will go now and talk to you this weekend. Have a wonderful one!
