Just Miscellaneous

Wow, the last seven days have absolutely flown by me!  Again!  Sometimes I just don't know where the time goes. 

I do know I lost a couple of days with my most precious, favorite girl who had an unfortunate accident at gymnastics........

Ouch!!  And she had qualified for the state competition too..........what a bummer. 

The rest, I guess - just miscellaneous stuff to get done.

Hmmm.........speaking of getting done - the condo with the red door isn't going to happen.  Suffice it to say the listing agent was the realtor from the dark side,  so our quest continues.

Oh well......... at least for today I was psyched today to finally spend time in my scraproom with the Studio Calico Joyland kit and add ons  from last month.  Its been a while since I've done several layouts  in one day, and it felt so, so good! 

Oh!  I loved  the bright colors in Pink Paislee's  Queen Bee collection and what wicked fun pleated twill - I'm thinking I want more.  Good thing I'm off to RAH tomorrow!

And these two are getting cuter by the day!  I don't know how they do it!  Fifty-six years married last Monday - I'm so blessed to have them.  Oh yeah.........thats where I was last Monday!

Will share the other two over the next couple of days.

OK - I'm off to watch Idol..........GO LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a List

A quick Wednesday list.

Fall in love, again................check!

Thats it for me!  Now I can go enjoy the sunshine!  Its supposed to hit 73 today!!!

Just another week!

Well, I'm thinking that since I've let another week go by without showing up here, I'll just catch up with a few words and photos.

So, in no particular order.


Been here,

and here twice

The one above may be the one.

Snacking on,

Watching DWTS, American Idol, Army Wifes, Law & Order and 20/20.

Creating with mist,

and mist and coffee filters,

and mist and  tissue paper

and newspaper and paint.

And tags and paint.

Lunching at Quan's, Papa Gino's, Panera and .

And just a few other silly things like little league, shopping for light fixtures with a friend, visiting mom and dad - you know, that stuff!

Happy Saturday!

Just Friday Faves on Monday and More Joy Ride

Well hello and happy Monday!  I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful holiday yesterday! The weather here has been gorgeous and yesterday was no exception!

I'm not quite sure what it was exactly that got me sidetracked last week, maybe the beautiful weather, maybe shopping for new Roxy's or maybe even looking at a few more condos and even a house, but, I never got to posting my faves, so here they are!

First up, I've said it before and I'm pretty sure I'll be saying it again,

this guy, totally

Taking the number two spot, this photo, it really sums it up for me and is the one you'll find at Roxy on line......

Moving on to getting a box in the mail with these inside,

And really yummy, sort of good for you whole grain muffins.....

And taking spot number five, this on line class.  I've loved it.  If you get the chance, TAKE IT!!!!!!!

I finished my RAH Design Team projects for April last week.  I was thrilled to have had more Joy Ride goodness to play with!  So here are those peeks!

See you next time!!  Have a great day!

Just Happy Easter

We've been having some gorgeous sunny days here, and I've been outside doing this and that enjoying it!  Been inside doing the scrappy thing at night, so will be back tomorrow to share some peeks of that.

Until then, a happy easter to you.

Just No More Rain and More

Well, the rain has finally stopped but sadly, has left so much devastation.....schools and businesses are still closed, as are streets, parts of the highway and more.  The mall is under water, a bridge is ready to collapse - its just a mess.  I feel so, so bad for the familes evacuated from their homes..........and I heard if it were snow, it would have been over nine feet.  Lots of water..........lots. 

I did get out yesterday, and meet a friend for lunch at a great local italian place - it was like escaping to Italy in the middle of a deluge.......

And the food?  Oh, so YUM!!

So anyway, there was a special going on at Shutterfly a few weeks ago where you could get a free film strip, so I figured, why not!  I don't think it was out of the mailbox a half  hour the other day  before I did this layout, inspired by another sketch from the class ..........

 I used yellow arylic paint on an old foam stamp by Junkitz for the little area of polka dots under the title.

And I've been working on April design team projects for RAH and will be posting peeks of those soon.

For now, I'm off to the gym!!!  Knee brace still in tow, and I can't do any leg weights, but I'm cleared for the eliptical and upper body .  Yay!
