Beautiful morning here in SE PA!  It was 62 at 7 am and the high today is 82.  Crazy weather for November 6th.  I'll take it!  We went from heat to AC to heat and back to AC.  LOL!   DH helped me pack the car this morning for my departure tomorrow to a crop for the next 4 days.  So looking forward to it as my sister will be there along with a couple of my Pocono crafty friends.  Had our water system and well checked this morning and all is good.  Picking up DGD at noon for an afternoon appointment.  Then, this afternoon I will finish up printing photos to scrap.  Thankful yesterday is over....

Lol that is some crazy weather, Vicki! 🤣 We've got it here, too! 😂 
I hope you have SO MUCH fun at your crop!!! 😊

Same old, same old here. I'm starting to fall into routine (not baseball season LOL) with freelancing. I also want to get started on some household / decluttering projects too, before the holidays. Do any of you cherries follow Flylady? She's always in the back of my head but I think I need to get back into her routines/program. Doing something is better than doing nothing. 

As for scrapping - I finished sketch 400 and need to take pictures. I am working on a card for the Black Friday #1 challenge. And I have some pictures out for Flasher's Halloween challenges. 

Is FlyLady on YouTube? I'll have to Google her lol Anne-Marie, I need to declutter badly! 😂 I LOVE that, too: doing something is better than doing nothing! I'm gonna put that in my journal!!! ☺️
Hope you have a great day with fun crafting time! 😊  
I'm pretty sure she would be on YouTube. I use her website -- flylady.net --- and have been on and off for years. Her other big saying is you can do anything for 15 minutes. And sometimes you (I!) put something off thinking it's going to be overwhelming and take forever and then it takes like 8 minutes LOL!

Hey Cherries 😊 lol I don't think mine posted yesterday but it's okay lol yesterday was an intense day! I was brain dead again after work last night! 😂 
I'm off the next days and am happy! ☺️ I plan on doing some crafting! I want to do some challenges! ☺️ I REALLY have a variety of projects on my mind! (When it's slow or annoying at work, I JUST think about all the arts and crafts stuff that I want to do! LOL!)
Have a wonderful day, Cherries! Stay blessed! 🍒❤️😊

THAT sounds like ME! 😂 😂 😂 Like I ALWAYS have a (clean) like of laundry to put away, AND my work area in the living room is overflowing with assorted supplies! 😂 (Though, I sometimes forget about things if I can't see them lol I'm doing better though!)

You are my spirit animal! LOL! I'm lucky that my scrappy area is a corner of the bedroom so it's not out in everybody's way. But I always leave things out so I remember to do whatever with it. Then my husband comes along, puts it away, and wonders why I forgot to do it. I really have to operate under the "if it was a snake, it would have bit me" way of thinking  :lol:

Woke up early to rolling thunder and lightening.  Big and loud.  Still pouring rain with occasional thunder but accuweather says no rain by time grandkids bus gets here around 2:30.  DD says they’re used to it and I should not walk down and meet them at the bus stop if still raining!  apparently 7 and 9 year olds don’t melt in the rain but old grandmas do.

nothing much going on today.  I’m shopping on the phone and trying not to buy anything lol.   I am halfway through and so far only ordered once.  lol. I really want my craft stuff to play with. 😞  doing my laundry today woohoo. lol

oh well. Have a wishful Wednesday

First major snowstorm of the year hit us last night.  This means hubby is working from home today...in the craft room.  Oh well.  I was able to finish up a card and clean my desk before he started, and maybe I will get a chance to do some crafting later.

NO way!  I do not want to see any snow for a very long time!  I feel like my summer just flew by, so seeing snow would be so depressing right now.

Good morning cherries! We have finally cooled down and humidity has came down....but only for the day! 😂  Woke up to 55 and will warm up to 90. Tomorrow? Low 78 and high in the upper 90s. 😂  Went on my morning walk to enjoy the cooler temps. Bedsheets in the dryer and am about to get started on work. Yesterday was even more brutal than Monday. I was so cranky and brain dead 😜  Slept okay though. Hoping today is alot smoother. Need to finish something major than do an upgrade this evening.

Hope everyone has a great day.
I hope things are better for you today Brandy!!!

Good morning!
the rain finally stopped and the sun is out, but it's a lot cooler today.  I am hoping today goes by so quickly.  I just don't want to be here.  i want to be home scrapping and snuggling my kitties.

I'm trying to finish up the Halloween party challenges - 1 more to go.  And my Halloween pics won't be here until after the deadline.  So I am searching older pics to find stuff to work with.
I finished up 2 pages last night and was pretty happy about that.
IF today turns out to be a slow day, I'm hoping to meal plan, grocery list and plan pages for the weekend.
Bowling season has started for Jason, so I'll be getting home a little later almost every night.  Time to do some prepping!

Have a great day!

Hope you can do your meal and page planning at work! Good luck to Jason and his team!

Good morning. I just found out I'm getting a delivery today at an unknown time. I was supposed to get my roots colored this morning but they were nice enough to switch it to the evening after my husband gets home in case it hasn't come by then.

I plan to continue working on my Tonga album. I'm making great progress after doing nothing for a month. Here are the pages I did yesterday. most are 6x8 but some are much smaller

Louise your pages are gorgeous! What a pretty place it is!!!

Charleneanne, I got a little giggle from your comments about the kids handling the rain but grandmas melt in it! So cute! I remember this Florida thunderstorms! They can be as bad as a Category 1 hurricane sometimes! 

You’re on the downhill side of your trip. Your crafty things will be happy to see you! Lolol!

Hi Cherries! It’s absolutely miserable weather today! Even the geese don’t want to be out in it!!! There’s little water streams all over the yard. And puddles too. I think I’ll be staying in the cabin as long as it’s like this!!! 

I’m feeling better so far today… Hopefully it stays that way! I started the candy corn layout last night so I want to finish it today. And I want to do the weekly sketch today too. I also need to do some cleaning. 

Have a great day!!!!

Snow already!? Ack! It's about 80 degrees here today. I'm glad we didn't put all the fans away yet. Boo on hubby being in the craft room though!

One of the things I want to do is go through our old audio cassettes. We don't have anything to play them on anymore and I was thinking to go through and make up "mix tapes" on Spotify and get rid of the cassettes. It would free up a couple of bookshelves...you know, for books LOL!
Happy Scrapping!

Been crazy busy this week, but I got home today and finished the Black Friday challenge # 1.  Not sure I love it, but it is different!
