Birds are butterflies hatched. The plan is to mail them Monday. So they will be winging their way shortly.; Have a safe night- the Storms are still firing up out there. Hugs- Mary

Big big thank you to those that have sent me tags even though I backed out of the swap. I have shared them with my mom to decorate her room :) She is doing quite well and will hopefully be able to go home in a couple weeks.
thanks again you have really brightened both of our days.

Okay gang.. here is my sad story. And I'm sticking too it! I finished the bird and butterfly tags... put them together in a clear plastic bag and planned a small message on the back. But that never happened. I think they Flew Away!!! I kid you not. I have been looking for them for 2 days. They are no where!!! Guess I should not have used that magic fairy dust on them instead of glitter. -------So.... wherever they are currently hiding... still can't find them.........I will be starting a new set this evening. I will put little balls and chains on their little feet and not let them get away until they are safely in their envelopes. And... if the first set wings there way back, I will send them to you also. So very sorry... Mary

Mary you are funny. I lost a set here a while back. I looked and looked. Finally I asked God to help me. Sure enough he reminded me of some bowls I had set on the buffet for my great neice. I had put the bag of cards in there for safe keeping.

Yup, Marilyn. He always helps me find things-- guess He's enjoying me making tags. My mom used to say: "Your mind is like a sieve!" and "Out of sight out of mind." I never understood what she meant until I was on my own managing my own affairs. Totally spot on, Mom. I always say I have the mind of a slug. I,used to be a snail, but I took my shell off and can't find it. I would blame it on old age, but it's been a life long problem. So, I spend 30 % of my time looking for stuff. I try to think of it as " house walking" exercises.

STILL LAUGHING!!!! I finally found my B & B tags that flew away!!
It seems when Texas was having all those tornados a few days ago ( and Canton was devistated). I packed my back pack with tuna salad packages, water, Meds, and TAGS! That's right!! I figured if the big storm came, I had to save my MJ Farm Girl Tags!!!
Oh Ladies, that's devotion! Guess they will visit the Post Office in the morning!!!
Too Practical Mary'. (Ya think I'd grab a family scrapbook or two???).

Glad to know you have your priorities in order!!! ROFL That completely sounds like something I would do. DH has strict orders if the house is on fire, he saves my completed crosstitch and bag of projects!!! Then Me ;)

Sounds like devotion, Bridge. You're right. We must have our priorities!!
Last Tornado day, I put my new quilt in the closet too... to put over our heads, of course. LOL. Mary

I received cute tags today, one set from Brenda, so cute.. I love your precious long legged blue birds. The other set was from Mary. Sweet sweet tags. I love the "ribbons" you used, so pretty and delicate. Thank you both.
