Hey Cherries. Another fun day! I can’t believe it is also May 1st. I woke up with a plugged ear that hurts when I swallow. I’m hoping it pops soon. My right ear is usually what causes my dizziness and vertigo so I am concerned about it not triggering that. Hoping Claritin D clears it. Pollen and blossoms have been blowing around everywhere.

Hope you all have a fun scrappy time today! I had a great time hosting yesterday, playing games, and I even did a Fast Scrap! Going to play all day again. Just have to take time out for a grocery delivery late this afternoon.

Oh and I will get the May Master List up in between everything today.

hope it clears up soon! enjoy your day!

Good Morning! Oh no, Barb that is terrible with your ear. Hope it clears up SOON!

It's turned a lot colder here, only about 45. I'm just planning on having a scrappy day today.

Oh dear - I hope you ear clears up soon so you can play along with us today.

Sorry about your ear!  Hope it clears up and doesn't cause any more problems for you!

My plan is to just be HERE today!  Other than board stuff, the only thing I need to do today is write a scathing email to Michael's about my delivery that came this morning!  I ordered a large, somewhat expensive "Welcome" sign for above the kitchen doorway.  Well, it was dropped off at 8:30 this morning and I was so excited to get it!  Opened the box to see there is NO "O" on the sign!!!!!!!  And, what's worse, it's not in the box or the packaging, which means someone deliberately chose to ship that without the "O". 

But, I won't let that bother me for too long.  Too much fun to be had!

I have sinus too! Came with ear pain and dizziness. But Allegra fixed it. I am looking forward to today! Thanks for hosting.

OH NO!  I hope you feel better quick, Barb!  I am hoping for a successful day today.  Going to get my 2nd cup of coffee

Wow...that is bad.  I have been getting my HelloFresh orders missing a recipe card for one of the recipes, several times over the past few months. It seems, since Covid, places can't hire conscientious workers anymore. Sad...  I am sure Michael's will make it right, though. At least I would hope so!
 

Barb, I hope your sinuses and ear clear up quickly!  It's that season, right?  My eyes have been wonky for the past week with all the pollen blowing around. Rain and colder temps have taken care of that for now, though.  Very crisp outside right now, although the sun is shining.

I plan to play all day here, but I will try to tear myself away to do some scrapping.  DH is helping his aunt and uncle move to assisted living, along with his cousins. I am happy they will be in a safer place, but glad they didn't ask me to help move! lol  I can't carry heavy things, anyway, and they know this is a busy time of year for me (didn't mention the scrapbooking, though. )  They have DH, his 2 cousins, and their high school/college age kids to help, so they should be in very good shape.

Have a great day, cherries!

 

Good Morning, Barb!  Hope that ear gets open for you real soon.  

Just chilling.  Put some towels in the dryer that didn't quite make it yesterday.
Looks pretty decent out.  In the 50's
Just put away 37 layouts that I completed in April.  Hoping May can be as fruitful.

Everybody enjoy their day.  Hope lots of you are getting to scrap today.  
I know I will be.  

Hope your ear feels better soon Barb. Laura, sorry about your sign, I would be upset too.   My plan for today is just to be here knocking out challenges. Feeing tired but getting extra coffee this morning.  Having a lot of fun with all the activities 

Barb - I hope you feel better, I think this crazy wind is making allergies worse. Yesterday, I looked out the window and it looked like it was raining petals. Later it hailed. We had all kinds of crazy weather yesterday. The frisbee game was a disappointment, they played sloppy because of the wind and lost by 2 points after leading at the half, and it was there biggest rival in the state. They play them again next weekend here, with hopefully better results.

I just finished my shaker card, so I am off to photograph it. And then I will try to figure out my next project.

My husband has been wanting to organize his tools in the garage, in preparation for the move. (We're moving in a year and half, but we are moving very slowly to make it less stressful). Anyway, since he is in the garage with his music doing his thing, I am in my craft room with my music.

We're heading to Philly late this afternoon so tomorrow I will planting flowers there so I will miss tomorrow's festivities. My in-laws are coming over so my mother-in-law can help me plant. My FIL is not doing well and if my husband can sit can keep him company while my MIL plants it will make her very happy. She has a lot of energy for a woman in her 80s and really enjoys things like that, and I can use the help of course.

 Happy Scrapping everyone!

Good morning!  Happy NSD and May Day!  Hope you are feeling better soon, Barb.  The pollen count here in SE PA is really high too.  We have a T-Ball baseball game today for our grandson who turned 5 yesterday.  I am hoping to play along a bit over the weekend!

Awwwwwe I hope you feel better soon!
And yes, yesterday was super fun!

Good Morning Cherries!

Barb, I hope your ear clears up without more pain!  I started like that 10 days ago then it went into my throat so bad I could not even sip water without it feeling like my throat had been slit.  Of course started Tylenol and allergy med right away but it was the beginning of the weekend by the time the fever started.  Did get to dr and get cough med and steroids, but had to have covid test too - that is negative of course.  Again its the weekend, steroids almost gone and I am still very congested and cough and choke so bad.  My throat does not hurt per se, but I cannot eat.  Living on water and yogurt!

Its a beautiful weekend so I am hoping to get outside a bit today and then scrap.
Have fun and havea great weekend all!

Good Morning!

I'm here though no coffee as yet. It is pouring rain and has been all night. Everything is soaked. Hope to play some games today and work on some challenges. I had a big day yesterday as DH was out for most of the day. Got 3 LOs done for challenges.

I am hurting today - had problems yesterday too. Now that my right hip is replaced and working well , my left hip is getting worse. I know that it has to be replaced too - just wish it would calm down. It collapses on me when I am walking. In the RV there is usually something to grab onto and I use the cane outside but it is scary besides hurting.  

Barb hope your sinuses clear up and your ear!

It is a lot better thanks. A hot shower and a Claritin D helped a lot.
