At Pat's Gift Gallery you are sure to find just that right gift for the upcoming baby shower, or welcome home gift. One gift that is sure to please is my one-of-a-kind Snugglie. A snugglie is today's version of the old fashion security blanket, which I am sure all of us are familiar with. My grandson, when he was 3 years old, was going to pre-school and he needed a blanket so I made him one so

Kids, and even some adults, have trouble eating a chili dog especially if you have no buns and you have to use bread. You fix your chili dog, take a bite and the hot dog slides out the end of the bread and leaves you with a chili mess. I have come up with a way to take care of that problem.After fixing the hot dogs and warming the chili sauce, take a hot dog and place it on a plate. Cut the

I know it has been awhile since I have been here to post but things have been so hectic in my life the past several months that I have not really had time to be online. I hope that all my friends are doing well and are having much success in what endeavers they are doing.I have gotten my online store up and running but that is all it is doing....running. So far no customers. Plenty of lookers

Yes, I am just about ready for the Grand Opening of Pat's Gift Gallery! I am so excited. I cannot believe that I am just about ready to reveal my first attempt at opening an online gift gallery featuring my Snugglies and hemp necklaces, bracelets and anklets. I got my camera yesterday. It is a real nice Kodak camera. Now I just have to take pictures and post them online. My husband has been

I know that I have been MIA for quite awhile but I have been so busy trying to to get my new online business up and ready to go that I haven't had the time to blog. Well, there went my good intentions to blog for 365 days. Yesterday I got a lot of my jewelry supplies in and it was like Christmas morning for me. Lots and lots of new gemstones, hemp and other supplies to make earrings. I also

Due to this crazy Indiana weather, school was out for two days so I had a very active 5 year old grandson under foot. He only goes 1/2 days so I had to cram a lot into one day because I played hooky on Valentine's day. My husband and I went to Hobby Lobby and spent about an hour looking at beads and making creations up in our heads. They had a 50% off sale on beads so we took advantage of it.

Got my list all ready to go and all I have to do is wait for our taxes to come back, which should be next week. My husband has been giving me design ideas which helps me out a lot. I just hope I have the time to get it all done.(lol) I am getting more and more excited each day. I bet I check the jewelry catalog at least once a day, and each time I do, I find more stuff that I want. I told my

Well, they are calling for another winter storm but hopefully this one will pass us by just like the last one did. According to the weather channel we may get snow followed by sleet and freezing rain. A general all around mess. Hopefully if we get this mess it will wait until I get home from work tonight. I want to just sit inside and watch it, not drive in it.Been busy getting a supply list

Yesterday it was windy and in the 40's. Today I wake up, go outside to feed the dogs and the bottom has dropped out of the thermometer. It is in the teens and feels like 1 degree. BRRRRRRRRR. And we are getting ready for an icy mix to come in on Tuesday, maybe even some snow showers before. Why in the world can't it do all this when I am off work? (lol) I don't mind the snow but hate the

Today my husband, my 5 year old grandson and I went out to eat supper. On the way to the restaurant my grandson said that his tummy was growling and he needed to feed it. About every 5 minutes he was asking if we were almost there. I should have realized that was a clue as to how he was going to act at the store...very talkative and antsy. Well we got to the restaurant, he got himself some

I was skeptical about ever seeing my dream of having an online website to sell my hemp necklaces and snugglies ever becoming a reality but I think it is really going to happen. I have started a web site at freewebs but it is still under construction, so to speak. Hopefully by the end of March I will be ready to have a grand opening. I use to sew and make hemp necklaces but it sort of fell by

You know, I am not even sure why I said happy Tuesday because it is a dreary rainy morning. I guess it is because I am happy to be alive and kicking...but not too high. I might fall and break a hip.(lol) I cannot believe it is the first week of February and we are having thunderstorms and warm temperatures. I even had my window down when I came home from work last night at 11 pm. I was under

Yep! We are under a "Winter Storm Warning" from 7pm tonight until 7 pm tomorrow. When I came in from work it was just a watch but they upgraded it to a warning. Rain, sleet, ice and snow....3-5 inches. YUK!!!! I have to work until 11 pm tonight so hopefully it won't be to bad. If it is, I'll just inch my way home...all 6 miles of it.

Yep, it is raining here in southern IN and it is 44 degrees according to The Weather Channel. The type of day that you just want to curl up in your favorite chair with a cup of coffee, a good book and just be left alone. Unfortunately I am not going to be able to do any of that. I have to take my grandson to the doctor in just a little bit. Being of the generation where they did not have

I know that there are a lot of people that do not have insurance, inadequate insurance, or insurance without prescription medicine coverage, especially the elderly. For some people, medicine is a necessary part of their lives and without it they could die. I know that without the help of medicaid, we could not even begin to afford my husband's medicines which are over $2,000 a month. Before

It may only be 15 degrees outside and feels like zero, but inside our home it is warm. Not only warm from the heat but warm from the love also. My grandson and I just finished making peanut butter cookies. He tried to help me stir them up but said it was too hard and it was my job. He had to pour in the sugar and flour, and of course some landed on the counter but that was okay. At least he

Hope where you are the weather is sunny and warm. Here in southern IN it is sunny but COLD. It is 7 degrees but feels like -3 degrees. That's okay because I am inside where it is nice and warm. I hope everyone's weekend has been going well and everyone that has been sick or had sick kids are on the mend.

Everyone that is pregnant or has been pregnant knows about these embarrassing pregnancy symptoms. And if you are not pregnant but thinking about getting pregnant, then you will be knowledgeable and know what to expect. I would also print this out and hang it on the ‘fridge so if anyone complains about any of these symptoms, you can show them this. Or else make a big sign that says, “PREGNANCY

Well, the old saying is true. Don't like the weather, just stay around and it will change. Yesterday morning we had snow, about an inch, maybe just a bit more. In the afternoon it started to rain and melted away all the snow. Now it is dry and cold. Who knows what is next. I cannot wait for spring! Spring and fall are my two favorite seasons. I would be happy if it stayed in the 70 degree
