I am so far behind





Here it is Monday again. I completely missed last week. This is harder than I thought to keep up with. I have my 365 project caught up and joined a couple swaps. I can do this. Yes, I can.
I did get to see the grandkids this weekend. We didn't get to spend alot of time with them. I will try not to make it so far between visits. The picture of Harley was taken at Thanksgiving. I just found it .. I think it is awesome. Two of my favorite things.!!!!!
I have some layouts and cards to post but will do that tomorrow.

This LO I did just finding a way to display these pictures. The first one is Aunt June and her daughter Dixie and her granddaughter Raegan.
The second is of Aunt June and her daughter Kathy and her grandson Eric.

The last is of my mom and her sister-in-law June.

This is a page I did with an idea I've had in my head for a couple days. I knew there had to be a way to mat photos with the cricut. I actually cut the mat and then the photo with the cricut. I think they turned out pretty good considering I was just playing around.

Friday, I got the second half of my 2nd week done and ready to start tomorrow on my 3rd week. I am only 3 days behind printing pictures. Some how I will get caught up. HOpefully before week 52. SMILE.
Monday I had to go to the doctor. Thought it might be blood pressure and sure enough it was kind of high. So they did tests and put me on blood pressure medicine. Not the way I wanted to spend my Monday. Tuesday was uneventful, took my medicine as I was told to and worked.
Wednesday started feeling better, and the weather is nicer. Hard to believe it's January.
Thursday, another day at work and everything going fine. I have a doctor appointment on Monday at the Clinic to go over blood tests they took on Monday and then Wednesday I go to the hospital for a stress test.

the end of another week


Monday we woke up to snow on the ground and still snowing. Didn't last much longer. Was very cold though.

week 2


Still have to print pictures for Friday and today and then week 2 will be done and ready to go for week 3.

1st half of week two

week one

only 51 more to go!!!
I have been working so hard at getting my space organized. Its still not done but its alot better than it was, at least now I have a little bit of the table to work on.

This is a picture of the clock we made for Becci. I still have to paint it black to match the decor in your house. I sure hope she likes it. I think it is pretty cool. I have to thank Sue Mey www.scrollsawartist.com for the pattern. I think she does awesome work. We purchased all the patterns from her for the clocks we made for everyone for Christmas. BUT I forgot to take pictures of them when I got done.

the end of a productive weekend

Doesn't seem like I got a lot done this weekend. But I did get the 2nd week of the 365 project done. and feel pretty good about that. It has been kind of hard to find things to take pictures of. I don't get to see the grandkids often so no pictures there and the dog and the cats, well I have a lot of pictures of them already. and not so exciting taking pictures of sleeping cats. That seems to be all they do. Eat and sleep. I am having so much fun with the project just trying to figure out page designs for the rest of the year. I have decided to use the cricut at least once on every page.

Finally figured out how to do the photo slide. It seemed to take me forever. The first pic is of my granddaughter and her friend at the park playing. It was so refreshing to see two teenagers enjoying the simple things in life. No cell phones or ipods. Just good fun. The next few pictures are of tin I made for my granddaughter of pictures taken at her 14th birthday party. I had a great time putting it together. I hope she likes it. All done with love.

newest project

365 project


I decided on New Years to start the 365 project with everyone else. I think it will be a very creative thing to last the whole year, Here is my first LO for the new year.
