Good Morning! I am at work and get to use their computer! It is wonderful to see all the new challenges and all the post and challenges/games from the NSD crop. I have been leaving some love in the gallery, too. I don't think I will ever catch up with it; there are so many new submissions. A lot of work has been done while I was unable to get online. Wow! Well, you know my drill by now. When I work, I only get to work, sleep and cook dinner for dh. So that will be my day today. Maybe I will be able to get some scrapping in here at work. I am going to try.

What are your plans for this blessing of a day? I hope you each have a wonderful day!

Good morning. I am up WAY too early, as you can see by this post. I woke up at 3am as though I had slept 10 hours. I hate when I do that, makes a very long day. I am hoping the sun makes an appearance again today. It was such a nice thing to see yesterday afternoon. I even went to the beach for about an hour, just to get the cobwebs out of my head! That was needed!!! My little one goes home today, so after I get some much needed housework done, I hope to scrap. Time is ticking on all those great challenges! I hope you all have a great day!

Morning ladies!!! I'm up way too early too, but that's what happens when DH is on 12 hr. dayshift. He gets up at 4am for work. Oh well, it just gives me more time to scrap and catch up on everything else! Have errands to run this morning, start packing for vacation, and of course get as many challenges done as possible! LOL

Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Good morning, Bibi. I'm dressed and drinking coffee before heading to work. Of course, I'd rather be home and catching up here too! I hope you found some NSD challenges to get done this week, at least you can still participate in that way. OH and Brandy's lovin game, I saw you entered that. Get some good sleep today, and be ready to work and scrap tonight!

Good morning...or at least I hope it will be for me. I only slept about an hour so it's going to be a really long day. DS#2 got home from the Army last night about 6pm, and it was wonderful seeing him again. But I'm so mad at DS and DH right now I could SPIT! They decided to go to the bar down the street to play some pool...my son loves to play pool. Well I don't know the whole story and never will, and to be honest, nor do I care. But I was still awake when they came home a little after 1:30am and some moron was banging on the front door and yelling, then coming in the back yard (our back yard is fenced in) and pounding on the BACK door and yelling! He woke up my DS#4, and I'm surprised if he didn't wake the neighbors as well. Apparently there was some disagreement between the 3 of them that spilled into the street, and this guy followed my son home (he walked home) threatening and swinging at him. It came to blows, and Evan's and DH's glasses are both broken. I had to call the police to get the guy to leave because he refused to...it was either that or I'd take a baseball bat swinging at him. Both men had originally lost their glasses...I took a flashlight and walked down the street looking for them. Thankfully I found them. Evan's frames are broken and will have to be replaced. Hopefully we can find a frame to fit the lenses. Since Evan was discharged from the Army he doesn't have any vision coverage, and I can't afford a full new pair for him. DH's are bent to heck and back, but at least they aren't broken. So neither one can even drive right now. There is even more to it than that, but I'm spitting mad. Nice welcome home, huh? Morons.

DD goes to Frankenmuth today with the German classes from school. In the push for making more students fluent in a foreign language, they are dropping the German program! She's in her 5th year of German, but they're dropping it in favor of Japanese and Mandarin Chinese...stupid school system. Anyway, the teacher wants to use up the funds in the German club account so she's taking the German student out to Frankenmuth (our local fake Germany lol) for lunch and they get to make strudel. She'll have fun...she's such an upbeat kid.

We were going to go golfing today for our first outing of the season, but in view of so little sleep and DH still smells like a brewery downstairs (I wouldn't let him sleep in our bed last night - I had no desire to smell him and deal with the horrible snoring he gets when he's been drinking - he got mad at me about that last night but I don't care - why should I sacrifice sleep for HIS stupid decisions?), and the fact he spent our golf money at the bar last night, that won't be happening.

However, the weather is gorgeous (mid 70's and sunshine) so maybe I will try to get a little yardwork done today.

Good morning! Lots of sunshine today!!! Working both jobs and running kids, it's what I do.

Sorry about the night Nancy. But maybe count it as male-bonding??!! (OK, ok, I know that won't work but thought it was worth a shot).

Have a great day everyone!

So good morning, Cherries. It's going to be the same merry go round for me today. Out the door soon for work. With my boss in town I'm not sure when I'll be home tonight.

Have a great day everyone.

OMG Nancy!!!!!! What a terrible way to spend your night!!! I would have been as angry as you! Hopefully your day is much better!!! Thinking of you!

Good morning ya'll. Still got that massive headache from yesterday. Its due to the weather, we've got storms all around us. Just ain't getting nothing here. Anyways, got lots of work ahead of me since the emails kicked my butt yesterday afternoon. I also need to upgrade the system for my client, hoping it goes smoothly. I also hope I can squeeze in some scrappy time. The most I probably will get done is finding pics for the Wacky Challenge.

Good Morning - another busy morning here at work, but all caught up now. I hope the rest of the day goes fast. I need to look for a hairstyle for my Bestie's wedding next month. So I can do that while I wait for more work to come in. Then tonight DD#2 and I will go for a walk. We started back up last night and it felt so good to be out there we walked an extra block So we will get out there again tonight. Molli and Tucker sure like going on our walks. Tucker is so funny. He has "Big Dog" syndrom. He doesn't bark at any of the little dogs, but he sure barks at the big ones. I taught him a lesson last night though. He started barking so I scooped him up in my arms and wouldn't put him down until he stopped. It worked So we will see if he remembers tonight.

Good Afternoon! It started off as a beautiful day today, but now the skies are getting cloudy and dark... The rain will probably be here in a few minutes.

I didn't sleep well last night at all - was awake at 2, 4 and 5...Finally went back to sleep to get woke up by a stupid woodpecker! Sounded like a jack hammer in the tree next to the bedroom window. Haven't felt too wonderful today - a combination of allergies and lack of sleep, I'm sure!

I have managed to get the most of my errands ran today and have plans to make a good dinner since I'm off today. I've even managed to sit and scrap a little, too! Hoping to get more of that in this afternoon.

Hope all you cherries are having a wonderful day!

[Charleneanne]

morning. up fairly early for a Tuesday. Breakfast, cats, housework, etc. Now waiting for shower water to warm up after running dishwasher. DH has an optomologist appointment downtown at 1:45. DS#1 coming over for supper tonight as usual on a Tuesday. Tomorrow is garbage day so that needs to be dealt with at some point. Yard waste week but not bothering to cut the grass today. Maybe in the morning early if I feel like it. Not very long anyhow. lol

Have a nice and safe day.

Afternoon ladies!
Almost done working here.
Then home for dinner, homework, some cleaning up, and the last bit of laundry YAY!
I am hoping to be able to work on some layouts this evening.
But I need to get some photos together that I took for two mother's day gifts.

[jrrah4903]

Hope Every One has been having a fantastic day!

[sugar_crystalz]

Morning! Or I should say "afternoon" since it's almost 4... it's GORGEOUS out today which made for a long day at work. Nothing too interesting going on here, lol!

[writerlady]

Hi - I know it's late, but it's one of those days. I just can't get moving. I sat at my desk and tried to scrap, but nothing. I sure hope I can find a bit of motivation. I have a layout in progress and I have one finished (almost). It needs "something". What do you all do when that happens?

Nancy - I would have gotten angry, too. Hopefully dh and ds will be penitent today and try to make it up to you.

A boring day at work. I have killed another hard drive in my computer. My 2nd one 11 years - not too bad. Now just some house work and I have put my feet up. I'm exhausted.
