Hey Cherries. I didn’t fall asleep until very late last night. I was lying in bed thinking up ideas for my games and challenges for NSD. lol. Luckily I do remember the ideas I came up with. I have to go write them down with my notes and other ideas before I forget. It’s amazing what you can come up with while lying in bed. Lol.
I’m off to my mom’s house again today. Going to be packing up more things for donation. We all pretty much took what we want so we are donating what’s left. I still have a layout started on my screen but haven’t had the time to get back to it. Maybe when I get home later today. We’ll see how it goes.
Have a great day Cherries.

Have a good day, Barb!!
Maybe you can get back to your layout later!
Hey Cherries
Work went well yesterday and hopefully will go well again today. I got asked to come in at 1 instead of 4 so I'm happy to get some extra hours on the clock!
(Though I wish I was home to play all day!
I have an unfinished layout waiting for me! No clue how to finish it but LOL I'm sure I'll think of something!)
I'd like to order more photos, but ALSO feel like I should work with some of what I have first. Especially ones of the kiddos lol funny how fast they grow, right?!
Have a blessed day Cherries!

Good Morning
Like, Barb, my brain is on overload thinking about NSD. It is a good thing though
Super excited.
Work is going smoothly so I am hoping to be in my crafty space this evening. I got my order of 400 prints to sort and need to order more.
It is a beautiful day here so I also hope to get outside for a bit!
Have a great day!

Good morning cherries. Feeling mucho better today compared to earlier in the week. Still no tummy issues and my headache/sinus/allergy issues are better too with a front that blew in overnight. I also slept in by an hour this morning too. That seems to be helping..sleeping in in the morning so I can power thru the day. Unloaded the dishwasher, swept/mopped floors, and went to get groceries. First time all by myself since my surgery. I even had no problems loading/unloading the car either. Came home, put everything away and made myself something to eat. Now I'm on here and working. Like many cherries, today is a good work day! Yesterday was decent, just B.U.S.Y. The state is rolling out new training for foster homes now that they are switching over to a new service package format for the foster children. Just trying to keep up with everything. Thank goodness this all doesn't go live until Q4 2026.
TGIF cherries!

Ugh. Up early. Today is neighbors bday. 84! So all of us
old(er) women are going to lunch. Weather is nice with the usual hazy blue skies and sunshine.
then later more tomatoes and flower seeds to plant. One of my neighbors left a card, flower seeds and a couple exotic tomato plants on my porch as a gift! Lol sigh. The tomatoes are called pineapple tomatoes because when ripe they are yellow! And maybe my sons are coming to dinner but not sure yet. Told them if they do just bring pizza with them cause no last minute cooking. Hahahaha
have a fun Friday

How nice that you are all going to lunch together. I've seen yellow tomatoes but have never heard them called pineapple tomatoes.Charleneanne wrote: ↑Fri Apr 11, 2025 12:14 pmUgh. Up early. Today is neighbors bday. 84! So all of us

Good afternoon. My allergies are terrible today. I was up later than usual watching Vicki Boutin introduce her new collection for 49 and Market. I thought I had ordered everything on preorder yesterday, but I found a few things I didn't order but must have.
I did get layout done for a DT assignment and hoped to get another layout done but my eyes hurt so bad. I hope to feel better tomorrow.
