Wow I was busy busy yesterday and today doing almost nothing. My whole plan for today is make a football themed bday card for youngest grandson. Oh and I did wash my hair. lol.
Weather is hazy sun/slightly overcast alternately. I made chx noodle soup for dinner last night and have leftovers for tonight so no cooking today either. And although tossing stuff into a pot for the soup is easy cooking but making those egg noodles is getting harder every year. (Yes I have a machine to roll the dough out and cut it but I never think to use it).
have an easy Sunday!

I am not sure if you are referring to Chicago Med but my son's best friend since third grade, kind of a "third son" was on Chicago Med this week. He plays the husband of a pregnant woman with cancer. Small part but we are soooo excited for him.pawprints wrote: ↑Sun Apr 06, 2025 10:02 amHey Cherries. Lazy, cloudy Sunday morning. Spent all afternoon at my
mom’s house yesterday. A lot of us were there and we hung out together and went through a lot of old pictures that we found. Got home around 7 and ordered pizza and just chilled and caught up on watching the Chicagos the rest of the night. Today just going to chill. I may get in my scrap room but not sure yet. We’ll see how it goes
Have a great Sunday Cherries.
Yes, I watch all three of the Chicagos. I saw that episode last night! That is so cool!

Gorgeous card Brandy! Love that hearts cut file with the watercolor background behind it!blbabe1234 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 06, 2025 1:23 pmHi cherries! Busy weekend here. Yesterday, we went and got groceries. Came home, put things away, had breakfast and ran to PetCo and Home Depot. Then back home to start laundry. By 2pm my energy was totally gone so I just watched TV the rest of the day. We ordered pizza for dinner. Didn't sleep well last night so who knows if I'll squeeze in a nap like I did on Friday.
This morning I've been in my room working on an Anniversary Card for DH. It's on April 14th and I can't guarantee I'll be able to make one next weekend. Did some mxied media, cut file and even some heat embossing. Kind of hard to tell in photos, but heat embossed the sentiment. Its better IRL.
Now I need to clean things up and hoping to get started on some challenges.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Just chilling in my space making cards- for Easter and a couple boy cards. Using Tim Holtz Rupert the dragon dies. Super cute!! Have had this die set for a bit and never used it!
And thankfully we are back to gorgeous weather. Headed into the 60’s abs sunny. Got out for my walk. Cleaned up the kitchen, started a grocery list for tomorrow. Need to do some meal planning. Last week worked out well.
My oldest granddaughter has been in a high school skills event this weekend. It was a state wide event. Her skill entry was in photography! Thanks to her grandpa teaching her. She won gold and is headed to Nationals in Atlanta! So proud of her. Need to think of fund raising for her.
Yesterday, the boys were having a food drive for their Scout troop, so ran a box of canned goods out to them and went out for lunch.
Happy Sunday!
Congratulations to your granddaughter! That is really awesome!





This is so cute! The photo is adorable!blbabe1234 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 06, 2025 3:06 pmDug thru some old stash and used DCWV "Playful Pets" for the weekly sketch. I only have 2 pieces of ephemera left, half a sticker sheet and some scraps, so I might make some tags or a card or something. Who knows!





Sorry to hear about the water pump. EEEK!!!GinniG wrote: ↑Sun Apr 06, 2025 3:26 pmHello Cherries! It’s windy today and grey. It rained most of the night. At one point it was raining hard. Then it started raining harder. And THEN it rains a LOT harder - if that’s even possible! It was crazy! But it filled all of our water buckets so that was nice.
Steve ALMOST had the water system working the other day. The pump had a crack in the weld. Grrrrrrrr!!!! So he took a smaller pump from an underground stream that we’ve been drawing from hoping that would work until a new pump arrived. It just isn’t strong enough. Boohoo!!! So until the pump arrives around the 19th we’re still carrying buckets of water and taking showers and washing dishes and clothes in the cabin.
BUT in the meantime Steve’s getting everything hooked up so when he installs the new pump we should have EVERYTHING ready to be used!!! Showers, tubs, sinks and everything!!! I won’t know hoe to act!!! Lolol!
While he’s doing all of that I can’t really help so I’ve been planning layouts for the challenges and team points. I have to walk over to the cabin today and bring more scrappy things over. I’m running out of room to put things! Lolol!
Hope you’re all having a wonderful Sunday!!!
