There are Only Two Things to Worry About--Either that Things will Never Get Back to Normal, or That They Already Have.

OMG, I have had THEE worse acid reflux going on today!
I even bought some Zantac when I went to town today, and now I'm drinking Peppermint Tea!?
And.I.Don't.Like.Peppermint.Tea!
On my second cup!
Hope something kicks in!

Dentist was wonderful (she says sarcastically)!
Another crown, andthisclose to a root canal!
Had to get drugs so there'd be no inflamation when I unfroze!



These geese were checking out the campground last week.
It's Rays' sister & husbands.
It's where I get the bottles all summer!
This is what it did on Friday night!


The fire pit is out there somewhere!



Took the van to Peace River on Saturday so they could fix my cruise control, 2nd time......still not fixed.
Taking it back on May 4th, when I go get my real crown in!
They're thinking it's wiring, and I've told them I have a short, 3 times!
They keep saying it's not related. Alrighty then!



This is the album I made to keep track of my stamps.
It's a wooden photo album, so is kinda funky.
I cut the stuff out with my Cricut....I think I need to mod podge the whole outside, but it looks great, and is evben kinda alphabetical!

I think I may finally be over the heartburn/acid reflux all day attack!
I even got drain cleaner in town today, as the sink in our bathroom has been getting s l o w e r & s l o w e r!
I dumped half the jug in like it said.
Waited for 1/2 hour.
Went back to run hot water down the drain & nothin'! 
I put the plug in, filled the sink with hot water, pulled the plug and YES!
It works like a charm.......Ray shoulda done that when he started complaining about it!

Better go.
Gonna try some cards tonight.
V's birthday's coming up, and so is Mother's Day
Talk to ya later!

Ta ta for now!
p.s. Hopefully there's no scary pictures in this post!

I'm up InSanely Early!

Gawd, I can't sleep!
Went to the Quilt Show Saturday!
Holy Moly, there's a lot of talent out there!
I took a picture of this quilt my friend did!
She got a new sewing machine, then spent months traveling 400 miles to make a square to learn what the sewing machine did!



I thought this next one was cute....it's a baby quilt, and the pockets hold dolls!


Here's the Easter cards, all finished!


Here's a close up!
They're all mailed too!


Here's Shadow, and she smells something!


I took this picture on the way home one day!
The geese & swans, and who knows what else have arrived for the summer, but the lakes & rivers are still frozen, so they're swimming any where they can!
I think it's amazing to see them together, in the middle of a field!
Basically in a big puddle!



The 'creek' behind the house has started running.
I use the term loosely, as it just runs in the spring, and is the run off of snow.
Don't tell oceans & fisheries, cause I guess if it runs more than 4 days or something crazy like that it's considered a 'creek' and there's living organisms and such in it, and we'd be in trouble because of the outhouse!



This next one is along the 'creek' bed, and is how much we have left to clean up this spring.
About 60' to the neighbors fence, then we'll go south!
We're getting rid of the dead willows and crap.
Fire hazard!
It's waaaay messier in real life!



Our dugout is full.
Which is odd, because it usually fills last, AFTER all the snow is gone, and Ray starts to fret!
Oh well, it's full, and it will get a good rinse, because all the snow run off; across the road where the bush is down there, still has to go through it!


It hasn't been melting much, been cool this week; snowed Monday, and is supposed to snow again today!
I'm going to PR this afternoon.
Dentist.
Still NOT SMOKING people, only yesterday I could've killed for one, and all day I kept smelling smoke!?
Anyhow, because of my (now) bad habit (traded one for another) of shoving everything in my mouth, I'm trying to pack healthy things in my lunch; broke a tooth eating carrots yesterday morning!
The girls at the dentist got me in for this afternoon!

And about the wonky read on the gas pump in my last post.........D told me that there's a light out, I'm not the only one that noticed, they've ordered a new face plate.
I'm so gullible!
Tell me anything that sounds the least bit techy, and make it sound like you know what you're talking about; and I'll believe it! hahahahaha!JK!

Hope you're all well!
My latest project involves putting all my stamps into an album, alphabetically no less!
Ihaveover50stampsandsets!
If I say it fast it's easier to take!?
Organizing the punches is on my to do list too!
So far, no doubles of stamp sets anyway!
Did a few cards for challenges, and mom needs Birthday Cards, so I'll be busy!

Went out for supper with the girls last night.
Going to PR Saturday, they'll fix my cruise control, and the Trade Fair is on!
I haven't been to one for a while!

Better go!
Have a great day!
Ta ta for now!
