Scrap a Day, February 1st
Hey Cherries. Wow February 1st already. And we are getting cold again. Temps will be dropping down to the teens tonight, but right now our wind chill is in the teens. So who knows what it will be tonight. I’m in all day today. Got my car back yesterday and my mechanic did the oil change but could not reproduce the problem. It started fine and he started it throughout the day and it started every time. He did some testing like tested the fuel pump and it passed everything. So right now she’s fine. So hopefully it doesn’t happen again. He’s a good guy not only did he pick me up but he only charged me for the oil change, not for any of the testing.

Today I’ll be working on getting my Music Challenge up and getting last month’s closed out. I started the layout for it last night and was up late, so right now I’m feeling pretty lazy. I may sleep a bit more first. Lol.

Have a great day Cherries.

Good morning Barb, glad things worked out with your car. Stay warm.

Feeling very lazy today but have so much to do.  Kindergarten cooties caught up with me and I'm fighting a head cold.  We had testing all week again this week and I am worn out. Weather here is about 75 degrees, I should not complain in light of what a lot of you are facing but it's getting pretty muggy here. 

Hoping to get my new challenges up today and close out last months. Wishing everyone a great Saturday.

Hey Barb 😊 You've certainly got a stellar mechanic there! 😉 Hold on to him! Lol! I hope your car continues to work well! 🙏🏻 
Can't believe it's the first already either!!
Enjoy your day! 😊

Re: Scrap a Day, February 1st
Hey Cherries 😊 I'm up having some coffee. 44 today with abundant sunshine! Too bad I work later this afternoon! 😂 
I woke up at 5 this morning in a bad mood but maybe slept some of it off. It is what it is.
Time ticked by too slow here at home yesterday. At one point, DGD and her boyfriend were both at work and I was home alone with just the cats. They're extra affectionate lately, or seem to be. 
My mom and my sister are supposed to come see me again today. I'm truly blessed to have so MANY good people in my corner. 
I can't believe it's February 1st ALREADY either! I'm gonna finish my layout for the rewind; idk when but it's so hard to JUST try to enjoy myself. I KNOW Omer would want me to, but it seems weird. 🤷🏻 I JUST KNOW that God will carry me through this! 
Stay blessed, Cherries! 🍒 ❤️🙏🏻😊

Re: Scrap a Day, February 1st
I was pretty busy yesterday and had a pain day with my shoulder.  I thought I was doing so good. Then a pain day.  Today is better.  You wouldn’t believe the dream I had last night!  A lady was selling her extra SU! Supplies, and I was going down the table picking up stuff, like I need more!  Another lady said, not a very good sale, and I am thinking what do you mean, this stuff is cheap!  What a silly dream!  I need to set up a table like that to sell all my excess SU! Stash!
Today, I have done my home PT, and went to a craft day at church.  It was our first, and will be first Saturday each month.  What a great idea!  Everyone just brought what they wanted to work on.  I took stuff, but mostly talked and ate.  Someone brought homemade blueberry scones!

now am watching a scrapbook zoom, and then we Skype with our kids and grands.  After that , maybe I can really craft! LOL

Have a great First, everyone.

Hi Barb!  I am glad your problem is solved.  With these fluctuations in temp sometimes condensation can build up in the fuel.  They have a product you can put in the gas tank for it.  It fixed my problem.  A cheap trail that doesn’t cost much.  An auto store can steer you in the right direction.  Good luck!

Cold, grey, rainy - lovely day to stay home.  My sons who were not coming to dinner this week are now coming to dinner tonight after all.  Seems their plans were canceled by the rain.  However I’m just going to get some take n bake pizza and do a salad.  

managed to actually do 3 challenges for January.  Going to the bull riding tomorrow and dentist on Monday so no crafty time again probably till at least Tuesday.     

have a safe Saturday

I can totally relate sweetie. My DH was a talker. Always telling me things and sharing everything about the sports he was watching, or the article he was reading, things like that. Always sharing with me. When he passed I found the quiet in the house to be deafening, if that makes sense. I HAD to put on music or something just to not "hear" the quiet. And it was a mixed feeling as in, like you said, I don't want to listen to music because I don't feel like enjoying myself, but I need it to quench the silence in the house. Hang in there sweetie, you are doing all the right things. Omer would want you to do whatever is best for you. So many ((hugs)).

Oh and my doggies were very clingy afterwards, especially Twinkie.  I never saw the saddest eyes on a dog. To this day she is still more clingy than she was beforehand.

Thanks Sandy. I asked him if it could have been water in the fuel line but he didn't think that was it. Unfortunately he had to start the car to get it to the station, and he didn't like doing that because with it being here instead of there he didn't have the tools to test it and find the problem while it was happening, so if it happens again he said we should have it towed in so he can test it while it is experiencing the problem. Good thinking though because I thought maybe that was the problem too.

What a nice idea for  a craft day.  Our local library does something similar twice a month.
