Work, Work, Work


That's all I seem to do these days.... work, work, work.... Monday through Friday 8am-4:30pm at the "real" job then head home to spend a few hours at the computer with a head that goes mysteriously blank with creative ideas when I actually have the time to put thought to pixel.... but this past weekend, I actually managed to create some really FUN holiday backgrounds and get them in the store at ..... Deco-Pages... A few hours tonight should let me finish a full holiday kit that I've been working on this past weekend, too.... I still haven't thought of a name for the kit, so I guess I'll have to give that a little more thought!!! Hope everybody is having a great day!!!

Quick & Easy Gifts

Special gifts should be easy, don't you think? The Design Team at Deco-Pages has come together and created a 19-page 4x6 quick page brag book.... and I must say, it's pretty awesome.... (see it Here) I'm planning to make my daughter and daughter-in-law recipe books using November's Brag Book pages.... take my files to Walmart and get 4x6 double-prints, pick up a couple of SEI's Preservation Series brag book albums (under $5 each.... less with a coupon at Hobby Lobby).... and for less than $20, I've got two very personal gifts all wrapped up!!! Now that is SWEET!

Weathering the Weather

Well, I guess it had to happen sooner or later... after near-record temperatures of 70+ this week, today the temps are dropping into the 40's with misty rain and snow... it's supposed to be getting colder this afternoon and evening with the snow increasing. Looks like we just might be in for a "White Thanksgiving" this year! While we aren't looking forward to that, spending time with family (and eating too much turkey and pie) will be great! Here's hoping your Thanksgiving is great!!!

On The Road to Recovery

Well, my little guy was one sick puppy for a couple of days but, a trip to the vet's office --- a shot, two prescriptions, some specific food, and a vet bill of $150 seems to have him back on the road to being healthy! Whew.... now all we need to do is go over the house with a fine-tooth comb to find and clean any areas that might have been missed!!!

Sick Baby

Oh my, I have one sick little guy at home today! Our 6 year old MinPin has been one sick puppy for the last two days... and we (well, really Del) has had to clean up a LOT of sick-puppy messes!!! Del is taking him in to see the vet ASAP and will let me know what they say as soon as they are finished.... Keep your fingers crossed that it's just a 24-hour puppy-flu virus that he's picked up and not something really serious!!!

Giving Thanks

Family, friends, even our pets... WOW... they can really get under our skin, can't they? But... (admit it; they can really be frustrating at times) where would we be without them? Who else can we call on in emergencies... who else can we lean on when we need emotional support... who else can help us celebrate the really great times in our lives? Thanksgiving week seems to be the one time every year when we give that some thought... I'm hoping this little 4"x6" brag book page will help you identify at least ONE individual who makes your life complete... Here's a few of mine...

Night, Night..... For the Winter

Today is kind of a sad day for me... It's gotten a little too chilly for us to be out camping (well, mostly it's an issue of being out in almost freezing temps at 6:00am to walk the dog) and we're putting the RV to bed for the Winter today... Night, night, Big Guy.... we'll see you in the Spring!
