So when I'm not in the naughty corner this is where I will be. Any one want to come play???

Hubby in for the holiday, as was the son in law. Everyone happy except for Courtney who couldn't come up due to having to work. I sure hope they give her Christmas off!!
The hood in kitchen bit the dust. I could have called the Home Warranty people, but just decided to go and buy a new one. Got the one I wanted and after 4 hours, it's finally installed.
Yesterday, we were out looking for the hood, and hubby says...hey, why don't we go and look at the dining table you said you wanted. So, off we go. On the way, he decided he has to use the bathroom. He couldn't go before we left. ARGH!! So, we stop at the wine store and he uses the restroom in there. Well, upstairs they have a brewery. So, up we go. After him sampling a couple beers, we get out of there without spending a ton of money. So, back on the road to the store for the table. We get there and I can't find the table. Ahh...there it is! It was moved to another section of the store. Hubby likes it and asks if it the is the one I REALLY want. Well, duh! I wouldn't have brought you here or talked about it almost non-stop if it wasn't THE ONE I wanted! So, he says....do you like any of the hutches that match? Well, of course I do!! Do I like the pricetag that is attached? No, but he says....well, if we are going to get the table, then we should get the matching hutch too. That way, we have the set and all is good.
Hmmm....so, is he ACTUALLY saying I can have the table AND the hutch? Yeppers! So, after about an hour in the store, we walk out with the receipt for the table and hutch and the paper saying it'll be delivered on Thursday! WOOHOO!! Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Valentine's Day, Happy Mother's/Father's Day and all other holidays to me!! Didn't really plan on spending that much, but we aren't moving anymore, so this is going to be my forever dining set! It's beautiful and I just love my husband!
Now, if I can only figure out HOW to get the Brother Quattro that I want. lol

TERRI

what is DH getting out of this purchase might I be so bold as to ask ???????

You betcha! I think we have twin machines! I have the QueenQuilter18, the Tin Lizzie knockoff. Still made by Tin Lizzie, but cheaper. Yours looks identical to my Queenie! I've not had mine long, but having a lot of fun with it. Learning with every quilt I do. I'll join you playing anytime!

Boy Terri, you hit the jackpot for the year! If you can manage to get the dining room set, you'll get your Brother too! Just keep up the chatter about it like you did the dining room table & you'll have it! Christmas is coming, put a bug in Santa's ear & maybe he'll bring it to you for Christmas!
