Hey Cherries. We are warming up here. Today our high is expected to be 47. I’m in today all day with laundry and scrapping on the agenda.

Hope you all have a great day.

Good Morning , Barb! Here’s Hoping your day is great!

I’ll be cleaning my house this morning. Looking beautiful out, except another super windy day. Snow is melting away quickly. I waited until 5 pm yesterday to go and walk and the crazy wind had died down some.

Finished a couple more layouts yesterday, which I need to get photos of.

I hope that everyone has a great start to their week.

Hurray for your cold snap ending AND for this being the last week you have to wake up at 5am!
Can't wait to see your new projects, Carrie!

It's a good Monday here.  The high today is 54 and it's already 48.  What a nice break this week from the bitter cold. 

Today is our DGD's induction ceremony for the National Honor Society.  She is very excited and so are we.  It's been a rough few years for their family, but she has persevered through it all, got accepted at the magnet school for high school and now she''ll be in NHS too.  This morning I did picked up flowers that we ordered for her.  Photos will definitely be scrapped!

Now, I need to finish her card!!

Good morning cherries. Slow going this morning. Didn't really want to get out of bed this morning. Got the pups fed and unloaded the dishwasher. Got cleared to do that starting today. Took me a little while to do it, then moved onto putting some doggie sheets in the washer. I was planning on going on my morning walk, first time since surgery but didn't have the energy. Instead, I showered, made myself a cup of coffee and was resting in my recliner with my laptop. Paid a couple of bills and kind of cleaned out my InBox too. Finally had enough energy to move into my office at 9:30. Hoping to work at least 3/4 of a day here, then, if needed...move back to the recliner. We shall see.

Had a quiet and restful weekend. It was in the 20s/30s all day Saturday with rain, so other than groceries, we just stayed home. Managed to get very well caught up some shows we watch together and DH helped me with laundry. I even went grocery shopping with DH. He didn't let me push the cart and when getting items, he only let me get super light stuff - blueberries, bananas, place order at deli, etc. He didn't let me pick up a jar or the OJ. I then had to let him put everything on the conveyor belt and then just get in the car when he was loading up the car with groceries. Sigh...I'm still learning to be a patient patient.

It is nice to finally see the sun and we will be in the 70s for afternoon highs. We were 40 this morning and already 60!

Hope everyone has a great day.

So glad you are feeling better today Holly!

Well overcast this morning but no rain and upper 60’s today. I don’t run the heater at night but house still only got down to 63 overnight. 

I’ve managed to get 4 of the Valentine crop challenges done.  Thinking to just stay home and try get the other 2 finished today.  Maybe wash my hair.  Didn’t finish all the leftovers yet so just heat that up for lunch or dinner.   Hmmm starting to sound like a plan. lol

have a merry Monday.
