I HOPE YOU ALL HAD A FUN + SAFE NEW YEAR.

I WENT TO FIRST NIGHT IN FULLERTON AND THAT WAS FUN. THE FIREWORKS WERE AMAZING. THE BEST I HAVE SEEN IN THE PAST FEW YEARS ASIDE FROM DISNEYLAND AND THE BIG A.

I’M GLAD THE FULLERTON MUSEUM WAS OPEN BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID I WASN’T GOING TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE PURSE & THE PERSON EXHIBIT. SOME OF THE PURSES WERE SO NICE AND I WISH I COULD HAVE TAKEN PICTURES OF EVERYTHING BUT THERE WAS SO MANY PEOPLE THERE. HERE ARE A FEW PICTURES

THIS SEWING KIT IS SO SPIFFY

I LOVE POST CARDS

2 OF MY FAVORITES

IF YOU LOVE PURSES AND ARE IN ORANGE COUNTY, YOU SHOULD GO CHECK IT OUT. I THINK IT’S CLOSES ON THE 4TH.

WHEN I BOUGHT MY LAWN MOWER (SEWING MACHINE) I WASNT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT .  I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE IT WAS ON SALE. I DIDN’T KNOW MUCH ABOUT SEWING MACHINES. I KNEW THAT SINGER HAD BEEN A SEWING MACHINE THAT HAD BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS AND THEY WERE VERY GOOD QUALITY. I HAVEN’T HAD A PROBLEM WITH MINE. I LOVE IT AND AFTER LEARNING A FEW THINGS  HERE  AND THERE I HAVE MANAGED TO KEEP IT OUT OF GETTING SERVICED AND HAVE AVOIDED REPLACING IT . THERE ARE FEATURES ON OTHER MACHINES THAT I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ON MINE. I WILL HAVE THEM IF I EVER HAVE TO REPLACE MINE BECAUSE I LEARNED THAT I NEED TO TAKE MY TIME WHEN LOOKING FOR A SEWING MACHINE AND THAT BRINGS ME TO MY

TIP OF THE DAY: WHEN SHOPPING FOR A SEWING MACHINE MAKE SURE YOU PAY ATTENTION TO FEATURES. MAKE SURE IT IS SOMETHING THAT IS PRACTICAL FOR YOU AND THAT IT DOESN’T HAVE STUFF  THAT YOU AREN’T EVEN GOING TO USE. DON’T JUST SPEND HUNDRED’S OF DOLLARS TO HAVE THE BEST MACHINE OUT THERE IF IT DOESN’T EVEN MATCH YOU. NOT ONLY IS IT A WASTE OF MONEY BUT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE HAPPY. THERE ARE TONS OF STORES OUT THERE THAT HAVE THEM ON DISPLAY AND WILL LET YOU PLAY WITH THEM TO MAKE SURE IT’S WHAT YOU WANT. BE SMART ABOUT IT BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE HAPPPY WITH YOUR MACHINE FOR YEARS AND NOT JUST FOR A FEW DAYS!

I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A FANTASTIC 2009
