Live a balanced life--learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. --Robert Fulghum

Good morning peeps!

There's a full blown blizzard happening outside right now!
Guess I'll just feed the birds, and cats & Shadow, fill the stove, & save the snow blowing for later!

I've decided not to go to Phoenix..........
Ray's brother's getting married on March 22.
It's still winter here people.......we both can't be gone at the same time.
We also got hooked up to town water last fall, and as long as it gets below 0, I worry!
I was talking to Kalen last week; he called from the Walmart parking lot (hahaha), and I said:
"Who can I ask to clean my roof off when it snows, feed the animals, make sure I have water, AND fill the wood furnace?"
He said: "There's lots of people you can ask; but it's a lot to ask."
When did he get so wise?
Ray and his sister are going, I booked their trip!
It's Easter/ Spring break, so they're taking the scenic route!!!

Kalen's also getting an award on Monday.
The little $%#@!
Surely he knows more than 5 days ahead!?
"It's a long way mom, but you can come if you want."
OY!
If he'd give me a couple weeks notice, I'd so be there!
He sails the next day!
Guess I'll just make him a CONGRATULATIONS card!

Got a few pictures for you!

I got some Happy mail this past week!
A friend of my moms, who we went for coffee with when I was down in August sent some pictures:

Me & my mom.............

 
It's blurry, cause it's a picture of a picture!
And no, I don't look like my mom, I look like my dad!
 
Yesterday some friends invited me for lunch;
that's a real treat for me as our office is out of town, and my peeps forget about me!!!
 
This moose is painted on the side of a building just when you come into town......
I was parked there!
 
 
I DID get some cards made this week;
I got my SU goodies I had ordered from the workshop,
so more playing is on the agenda!
I also ordered some stamps from here:
You're Welcome!
 
Here's a card...........
 
 
It's a Chalkboard technique, and I just read about another one, so will be trying it!
 
I've been slacking off, as I'm playing a new game; Candy Crush,
and it's as addictive as all the other ones!
 
 
 
Better go,
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

  1. Hi
    Great card. Blizzard means crafting??doesn't it? :)
    Sorry you can't go south. If I was there I would gladly do your chores for you.
    Love the moose pic and it is so good to see pics of you and your mom.

  2. Well, you might look more like your Dad... but didn't you inherit your Mom's nose? But then the picture is a bit blurry... Anyhow, love that chalkboard technique card and am looking forward to seeing more. We have snow, too (though not exactly a blizzard) and I was lucky to be at my Dad's and allowed to do the shoveling. No time for skiing this time around, though. If you can't go South, maybe you'll have an all the more creative time!

  4. Great photo of you and your mum. Your card is lovely, I like the technique. We have been having quite hot weather here, but chilly wind this morning.
    Hugs,
