Well, a month since I've blogged. The short version -among a few other things, the big guy had yet another heart event and was hospitalized and our family suffered a tragic loss with the sudden death of my 34 year old cousin. Please say a prayer for Stephen - drug addition is a cruel thing.
I'm convinced that every once in a while, a particular month presents challenges one right after the other - October was like that. But, all one can do is have faith - I am though, glad this month is coming to a close.
We were fortunate though, to be able to get away for a bit, take some time, and try to relax and refresh. ........
I finally managed to start doing some Halloween decorating around the house when we get home. Gotta love Martha - I had picked up these cool bottle labels last month from her tons of Halloween craft items. What a quick, simple, fun way to create that spooky spirit. I saved a couple of wine bottles and an olive oil bottle, washed them out and reapplied Martha's labels. I refilled the bottles with water and added some food coloring. The end result? I love my tray of creepy potions in the kitchen!
I've not scrapped for quite some time - since my last Magpie kit, actually. I am starting to miss it a bit, and am off today, so here's hoping! I've an Amy Tan class that I totally missed!
Enjoy your Wednesday. Happy to see you again.
