I thought that I would post this and see what everyone is up to tonight?

DH brought pizza home for dinner and we split a small bowl of ice cream afterwards.  He's in his man cave catching up on season 2 of The Night Agent.  I'm in my scrappy room finishing up this 2 page layout while watching old reruns of CSI on Pluto.

What about you?

Trying to squeeze in a layout as I have a little down time before dinner.  DH is in charge of entertaining his sister and her husband (I have been with them all day.)   Having a glass (or two) of wine!

I just got the puppies fed and I’m doing some laundry and cleaning. Lol not very exciting - and listening/watching Darby & Joan  on Prime.

I share my ice cream with no one. 

I've been doing laundry all day and am on my final load.  I will be having some unhealthy but yummy french fries for dinner because . . . I can.  Everyone else is having spaghetti. 

I think I just plan on sitting around doing some crossword puzzles.

I feel you on eating what you want!  Got my bloodwork for my annual checkup back today and newsflash...my cholesterol is a bit high.  After the holidays....shocker!  Anyway, doc recommended more exercise and work on diet, so I will try, but mostly I'm still going to eat what I want. Until they tell me I need medication, I'm not too worried.

Ooh...that sounds like it could be British, and we love British shows.  What's it about?

I just finished up my work day and thinking of going to the craft room!  I have projects I want to work on and finish a few more challenges before the end of the month.

Also need to figure out dinner...wish it was just ice cream.  LOL

Pizza and movie night here!

Sausage sandwiches with onion, peppers and mushrooms here.  In my scrappy space working on Valentines for the GKs.

Usually, I don't - but this wasn't my favorite flavor, so I didn't want too much.

We grilled steak, potatoes and veggies for lunch.   Afterwards,  spent several hours in my craft room working on tags.

I've  been on cholesterol meds for years.  Diet and exercise didn't  work for me.  

Nothing on TV tonight.  Looks like either reruns of Acient Aliens or reading a book.

So we have never been wine drinkers ( or drinkers at all....) but I did buy some wine recently - we are saving it for Valentine's Day.  I prefer things to taste sweet - so I'm hopeful this is a good one. It's from the XOBC wine club/company - Brandi Carlile, one of my absolute favorite musical artist started it... funds go back for a cause so I felt good supporting it!

Did my grocery shopping this afternoon and got everything put away. Then sat down with a drink and some shrimp cocktail. Going to put the heb meal simple salmon low carb dinners in the oven soon.

My favorite is mint chocolate chip!
 

Enjoyed my chili and a lovely salad, watch an episode of "On Call", then headed to room and started a layout, with a little glass of wine

 I LOVE mint chocolate chip too!  This was chocolate and peanut butter...

We had to bring the cat to the holistic vet today to try and figure out her allergies/itchies/overgrooming. Completely stumped them…so still at square one. Brought her home and went out for pizza and spaghetti and then to have an ice cream at the cute little shop. Now I’m on the sofa under a blanket trying to make it to 8:00 

Spent the day caring and stuffing my parents (dad had a nasty spill) and got maybe one work thing done. Apparently, a third “new” person in the house meant telling ALL stories of the months, opinions, questions, and more. My ears hurt.

So happy to be in my little crafting space. Trying to figure out how to attack the Mood Board challenge and the Make the Cut challenge tonight. And maybe a card. I want so many new supplies but am not allowed to buy until I use some stuff up. I swear I am going to glue ALL my paper together and sprinkle with ALL my brads, gems, and dots just so I can buy all the new shiny things!

Sorry to hear about your Dad taking a spill! I hope he is ok!

I was bad.  Very bad. I ordered some things here and then had a gift card for scrapbook.com (even though I said ACOT, they thought scrapbooking and I guess that was the first thing that came up) - I even found a couple of cute scrappy shirts (I have one....) and I bought them too.
