Hey Cherries. The rain finally stopped and the sun is shining. Headed for about 55 today. I have a few errands to run then I hope to scrap for a bit. We’ll see how it goes. 

Have a great day Cherries. 

Good morning Barb! Glad the sun is out today!

Feeling much better today. I think with the busy busy weekend I had, it finally caught up to me yesterday. I was tired, worn out, belly was a little tender. Just felt off. Didn't get a whole lot done either, but I'm okay with that. Slept better last night and already showered and had breakfast and my coffee. I'm on my laptop working at least for the morning - will see how I feel by the afternoon and if I move into my office or not.

Nothing else going on....kind of boring around here. LOL.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Woke up early and no big plans for today. Got my chores done yesterday. Biggest thing I need to do is figure out dinner. But, I did make a meal plan for the week, so that should help. Trying out a few new things. I get so bored serving up the same stuff.

It was raining earlier. But should be a decent day , headed into the 60’s. East coast gals , this warmer weather is heading your way. I am do ready. Grandson #2 had shorts on yesterday! But it was nice to walk in warmer weather with just a light breeze.

Working on reaching 31 layouts for March and just a few more to go. At 25. And still haven’t found the missing layout. Only now I now there are 2 missing.

Happy Tuesday!

Hey, Brandy!  I'm glad you're feeling better today!  I'd say with as much as you seem to always have going on, a boring day will be great for that belly!

Still cloudy here, but at least the wind is gone.  I really need to make myself go up to my crafting studio above the garage and begin to clean it up!  It is terrible, because I buy things after school starts, but I really don't have time to go up there and do much crafting, so there are piles everywhere!  Plus, it wasn't really clean last summer. lol  I need to purge in the worst way!  Wish me luck.

Good morning. it is sunny here as well.

I just finished the last page that I'm dong for the recent Israel trip. It was short trip so not too many pages, but here it is


Have a great day everyone!

Hey, Cherries!

We're not supposed to get out of the 30's today.  Spring, you say? 

I've got a pot of chili on the stove for dinner.  Actually, it smells so good, I might just take some for lunch!  I'll throw some cornbread in the oven later on.  I've also got butter on the counter coming to room temp.  I'm going to try and make a Lorna Doone copycat shortbread cookie recipe.  I've never made these before, so we'll see!

Have a great day ALL!

I'm not a big fan of serving up the same thing either. Always trying something new!

WTG on getting so many layouts done this month! That's awesome!

I always love to hear what you've got cookin' Laura! I'll take some of that chili for lunch too!
 

Good morning!  I like to read all your posts, but then, I don’t have so much to say. I think I have been MIA for several days.  I am about burned out on creating/ crafting, since I did so much the first part of the month,  I am fizzling out.  I have been trying to organize my craft room so it will be decent while I am laid up.  Weather  today, will be 75, cloudy and maybe. the wind is not so bad for a change.  I have been trying to go walking every day,  and am planing to this morning, too.

I went to get my C-scan yesterday for the surgery.  Was real quick and painless.  Today,I begin the no supplements thing for 7 days.  It is getting closer to the big day!

Have a great day, Cherries!

Finished this layout that I started last night for the March Mood Board.  Now, off to clean and purge the crafting studio!  lol

I'm glad you FINALLY got some sunshine, Barb! Hope errands go well and that you get to scrap, too!

Glad you're doing MUCH better, Brandy! (I saw yesterday's post!) Just keep taking it in stride I guess! Sometimes we seem to be healing great then need more rest I suppose. BUT I'm so VERY glad you're doing so MUCH better! Even though it's a common procedure, it's STILL major surgery! Continued prayers for your healing, my friend!
Oh, and I'm about to go check out that new doodlebug/bella blvd kitty cat line, too! I MAY treat myself when my taxes come back! You ALREADY KNOW that I have NO MORE room for paper, BUT okay, as a justification, paper doesn't take up too MUCH storage!

Yay for better weather!
I'm so impressed by how many layouts you've been able to do this month, Leslee!!  I DO hope your missing layouts turn up! IDK where things go when they go but I've had that happen to me! You'll find them at some point - ideally, together! It's incredibly frustrating to me when I KNOW that *I* was the last person to handle something and it's MIA!  
I understand what you mean by wanting something different for dinner, too! We did spaghetti again last night! It may become a weekly thing around here!  
I hope you have a wonderful day!

Winds have died down here, too, Laura. 
I TOTALLY understand what you mean about your studio space being a mess! I'm making a little headway here, but MAN! LOL! At LEAST we HAVE the things, right?! Good luck doing some organizing there! (I find it helpful to put things in boxes and unpack them, although I can say that I start playing JUST about EVERY time I start to organize! So, maybe don't do that!  
I hope you have a wonderful day!
