When you are reluctant to change, think of the beauty of autumn.-Unknown

Happy Daylight Savings time!
Like that makes a difference with my sleeping habbits!

Still no snow...knock on wood!
It tried this morning, but didn't get too serious about it!
Between yesterday& today, I've got a pile of stuff done.....I did say to myself a while ago that someone needed to vacum, but no one volunteered, so...............

I put up another motion light yesterday, as the one on the north side didn't need any motion to turn on....it just stayed on!
Today I had a do-over!
The new light didn't work, thankfully it was just the bulb, which I had in wrong!
Lesson there folks, start with the easiest thing first!

Got 1 and some bags of apples in the freezer & made 2 pies!



I also have to do something with the pears, and believe it or not, found a pie recipe for them.
I'll try it later this week!
Got the bag of peppers in the freezer, defrosted the beer fridge in the entry; ok, so it's technically NOT the beer fridge; it has beer in it!
And yes, it's THAT old  it has to be defrosted....remember those!?! I figure it's over 30 years old!
Still doing laundry, put out my big a$$ bird feeder I got at mom's in June.
Cleaned a bathroom, cle3aned the bathroom fan, fed cats, & hauled cat food from one cat house to another!
The old washer got hauled away
Dug out my snow shovel...who are we kidding, I'm gonna need it one of these days!
Got out the roof rake & broom for the skylight & roof.
Put Halloween away. Brought out some snow people!
Coffeed with some GF's that came out yesterday.
Got a roast & fixins in the slow cooker, and baked a loaf of bread. Don't get excited, it was a mix I found in the process of defrosting......I added a can of beer to it, mixed it up and wah la! Sure smells good!

I had a Stamp Club the night before I left for moms.


This next one is the wonky Birthday card. I say that because in order for it to stay open to be displayed, the ribbon just fall down & sits there!
Also, the BIG circle thingy on the front!



We made another Birthday Card, but I didn't finish.
Hey, she just gives suggestions....we don't have to play along!
I'll finish it up, and show you!

I've made some SAS4K's (Canada) cards.
There's a link at the top right of the blog.
We're playing in Alberta now!
I got some awesome colors of embossing powder so made the following!



I made 3 others with a different saying.
Then I made 6 Christmas cards for them.


I got the inspiration here!
I didn't have kraft card stock, so used ivory.
I'm going to make some Christmas tags, then send them in!

I've been making treats for my Stamp Club.
We're not meeting in December so have to be done this month!
I'll show you those when I'm finished too.

I volunteered to help with appetizers for a Cancer fundraiser the town is having on November 19th.
I know, I know; JUST SAY NO!
But my little mind says 'JUST DO IT'!
I also volunteered to drive the handi van for the community run on Thursdays.
My turns are the next 2 Thursdays!
We get a turn about every 9 or 10 weeks, so figured I could handle that!

Better go, you guys have a great week!

Ta ta for now!

Boy, you made up in this post what you lacked in the latest post! Good God woman, I wish you could bottle that energy and sell it because I'd be buying it by the case! More great cards but I honestly don't know how you have the time to make them! I need a nap now. . .Hugs, Curt

You have been burning the midnight oil again, girl. How do you do it???
Love your cards, especially the Peace on Earth card...very classic. As far as the upside-down card goes, I just figured that you were so tired from all of things you had been up to that you were just too tired to re-take the photo!
