Been playing ref for the past few hours. These cats are so cranky! Louie is still home, this is the longest he has ever been here. It was also the longest he'd been gone. I think he left back in May/April
Wilbur is a bully toward Tommy and now Louie really sets him off. Spook thinks everyone should just play with him, even when they are snarling.. which really makes Louie mad.
Tommy is a marshmallow and gets caught in the cross fire a lot.
No stress here! LOL Oh the kitty Drama! LOL Couldn't resist!
Okay, I am making my goal today.. clean off my poor table again! LOL
I am cleaning and getting things ready for the LSS Rummage sale. Love store credit! I am bundling up old kits from back in the day when I did classes at the store, and when I was a demo, and did workshops, and making up baggies of scraps and left over stuff. They sold like mad last time. take Zip locks, and half a pound of scraps, had $5 on each and sold every last one!
Making room for new things in here..LOL
Actually my number one goal is to buy a 12 x 12 scrap book for the baby. Carrie says I can do a scrap book, cuz she's just not crafty! I laughed at her!. She takes millions of pics, they just sit on her phone or comp. I gave her my Shutter fly log in and told her to start uploading.
Well must get off my butt!
What's for dinner? I just had a p'nut butter and jelly sandwich for breakfast/lunch.
well....spill the beans woman! baby boy or girl?????????????????????????????
by the way, love the new avatar!

If you receive an email from the IRS or the United States Treasury - DO NOT OPEN IT!!! It's a virus. The IRS will NEVER contact you via email. NEVER, EVER. I heard there is a nasty one going around again.

Meet my Bug
I deleted the pic after I did this in MDS, sorry!
Clint said.. Holy Tele Tubbies!
Joe said.. Are you sure it's only 1 in there?
She isn't as big as I was with Andy, so I told her she's got a ways to grow!
It's hard to believe it's been 2 years since she broke her back, she is still training horses and teaching kids to ride. I am hoping she isn't riding, but I know better I guess.
She is in PT a lot with her back and this pregnancy. Her leg is ok, she says she has cramps in it, but considering.. she can live with that.
I am feeling fine. I have been drinking a lot of water and trying to get rest. However, last night I did not sleep well at all. Terrible, terrible, terrible dreams. Tonight, it's 10pm, and I am wide awake. So, maybe I will start to get inky and see if I get sleepy.
It's windy here tonight, and I think it's supposed to rain tomorrow. Who knows!
We get our new furnace installed on Saturday. That is wonderful news because then I won't hear that awful CLUNK every time it runs. We found out it's 35 years old!!!! We had no idea. Anyways...that's my fun on Saturday. I will clean the house in the morning and stamp the weekend away!
Are you all sick of me posting these? I will stop if you are.
Barb and I got wonderful news this afternoon (very late afternoon)! Glue Dots is going to make a donation to my event, and I am SO excited! It's all falling into place. Well, we still have some stuff that is unanswered, but I am just going to go with the flow. No more stressing if possible!
The third card (using SU's Upsy Daisy set) is a CASE (only different colors, and did the ribbon a little different) from a shoebox swap I had. Colors are Cherry Cobbler, Elegant Eggplant and Garden Green.
Barb, Winter theme are OK. We will be past the Christmas deadline though. So go ahead and do snowmen, snowflakes, winter scenes. Good stuff! I LOVE snowmen!
Where is the greenhouse going to be? I think that's awesome! How exciting!
Don't be surprised if you end up in John's voicemail. I did ask him to mail my ticket to me so I don't have to deal with running over to the Will Call window. He said yesterday he already had one voicemail for a ticket, so that's exciting!

OK--snowy wintery cards on the agenda today. I love your lighthouse one--I think I'll ink up that stamp too,
Garage is going to the left of the existing garage, at a 45 degree angle---kind of over where our vege garden now is. The greenhouse will be attached to the back of it.
I actually just talked to John and ordered my ticket--he said the ticket would be mailed. He did not answer--someone else did and when I asked for John, they asked which one. I am glad I had heard you mention his last name.
I did thank him for all he has done and said I hope the event works out well for everyone involved. He kind of did not want the thanks--just said he is the middle man, trying to get some things organized. Maybe your messages kicked him into gear!
I didn't know there are two John's. I usually deal with John Bitter, Nathan or Kim. All three are really nice people. Glad you chatted with him! YEAH! That is the general office number for the Admirals office. Sorry I didn't clarify that.

That's OK--I think if someone calls and asks for John--and they ask which one and the caller explains what it is about, they will get him.

i talked to the paint guy at Lowes about nonslip surface paint for the floor, he told me to take the paint we have and mix in some fine grade sand, like playsand or craft sand and it will do just fine. so, we will try that once i get some sand......... give the floor some grip....
dinner tonite was good ol chicken and mashed taters! i think i will do bean soup in the crock friday...thats always nummy......

Good Morning--I am checking in a bit later as I have been playing with my blog this morning and changed the template. I know it is not spring, but found some cute flowers that look like they have brads in the middle along with buttons, so my ribbon themed blog went away. There are themes for every holiday, so some people might change theirs numerous times a year.
I have to go to the post office to pick up a package this morning and this afternoon, I get to swap out the snowy cards swap--I love swapping as I get to see all of the cards again.
I got woke up at 4am by a car horn. I am sure I made two bad decisions. First bad decision was to go outside to see where the heck it was coming from. I couldn't figure it out. Granted it was 4am, and I wasn't totally wide awake. Second bad decision, I did not call the police. I felt that if I wasn't sure where it was coming from I wasn't sue I should call. I didn't feel it warranted calling 911. I don't know. It lasted for almost 45 minutes...just steady car horn, not like an alarm. I should have stayed inside and just called the police. DUH!
I did get my CRV taken care of today. I had a spot on the back where someone hit me and took the paint off (remember that?), and I had a few other scratches that needed some attention. I especially wanted to get it taken care of before snow which brings salt on the roads.
Karen, speaking of snow, how much are they saying you are going to get with this storm that's headed your way? Ugh. I am not ready yet.
I am listening to my beloved Admirals while coloring Frosty the snowman images. YEAH!
Our new furnace is being put in tomorrow. I'm happy. We won't have that huge CLUNK noise every time it runs!
