First, I have to thank my favorite cousin, Sara, for the picture she sent me last week - I have yet to get it framed and hung on my art wall, but I promise to do that soon and I will post a pic of it once I do.
It was a fun day of scrapping - working on two pages to submit for the Milwaukee Pugfest scrapbook contest to benefit pug rescue. Wow - it's hard to be given a theme and requirements to scrap. I've never done it before and it really makes you stop and think about what you're doing. I do believe, however, that I have finally gotten off to a good start and will get them finished yet this week. Which is good because they're due by Labor Day. And thank you to Mary for helping inspire me!!
Ah, yes, the reasons I don't have kids - Karaleigh (Mary's granddaughter) is one sweet little girl, but man that kid can wear a person out!! Just watching her run back and forth through the living room in her cowboy boots made me tired!! Oh, and she's very picky about the quality of stickers she uses - I tried giving her some of my stickers to play with and she never hesitated to give me back the ones she didn't like!!
And cannot forget my usual fireworks rant. Here's the deal, people. Fireworks are for the 4th of July. It's currently August 21 - long past the 4th of July, so if all the idiots can stop shooting off fireworks, I'd be forever grateful!!
Trip to Chicago next weekend with Josh and my FIL. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Chicago so am really looking forward to a fun weekend. Maybe we can manage a stop at the outlet mall in Kenosha on our way there or back - not that I have any money to spend, but hey that's what keeps Discover, Mastercard and Visa in business, isn't it?! Well, that and my vet expenses!
Have a great weekend, lord knows the warm summer weekends will be over before we know it.
I am so happy that you like your print. I saw it and thought of you, then I saw the Keep Clam and Eat Cupcakes one and thought of me. Love you.
ReplyDeleteDebbie is looking forward to your scrapbook submission....
