Some Cards and Ramblings

I've been bad. I've not made it into my room in forever. I've been spending time with the family. So, here's some stuff from a few weeks ago that I never got around to posting.

This one I made when I got some new stamps and was dying to try it out. Just a simple shamrock. I used Polka Dot Punches.

This one I used Branch Out (SU!) I love this tree. I need to make more time to play with it. I can imagine so many things to do with this set!

This next one I made for my SIL. She was supposed to have breast reduction surgery. It got moved because she developed an infection so they could not do the surgery. I'll have to come up with something else for when she actually has it. I used my nesties and then cut the circle in half. Took a couple of thin strips to make the straps. Easy as pie.

That's all for today. I've been cleaning the house for Paul's birthday party this weekend. I'm working on getting my scrap room clean today. Hopefully I'll get things cleaned up by tomorrow and I'll be able to play some. I sure do miss it!!

Misc...

Oh my gosh I did not know that it had been so long since I posted. I have not been working in my room lately. Here are my excuses, I got started on the Twilight series so for a week and a half or so, I did nothing but read in my spare time. Then I got caught up in life. My hubby has been working super long hours. He's been leaving at about 6am and not getting home until somewhere between 9 and 11pm. So I've basically been a single parent for the last 2 months. We've got a big bump in the road of marraige to get over right now and that has and will continue to take presidence. I am going to try to get back in the groove today. I got the laundry mostly finished yesterday. I'm finishing up the jeans and towels today. The house is mostly clean. Besides I am sore from working in the flower beds this weekend and can hardly move. I need some stamp therapy. Soooo I am working in my room today. I hopefully will get something done. I am being a bad parent, Joseph is parked in front of the tv watching sesame street. But on the other hand I will be a better parent, and wife if I have a therapy session. Wish me luck.

OH just in case you haven't seen yet...GinaK is starting her previews today. You have got to see the Easter set. It has the gorgeous cross. What are you doing reading this?? Get over and look at it. You are going to LOVE it!!

Addictions

I have a new found addiction. It is one of the reasons I have not been productive in my scrap room. I have gotten HOOKED on the twilight series. OMG!! I love it!! I bought book one, read it over the weekend. On Monday, which is Laundry Day, Wal-Mart Day, In general, Chore Day, I bought book two. I finished it that night. Like I said, I am HOOKED. Yesterday(Tuesday) I went to Hastings to see if they had the paperbacks for 3 and 4. They did not. I knew by looking at the price that I could get the hardbacks cheaper at wal-mart. So off we went. I am only about halfway through the 3rd one. I've been trying really hard to get some work done around the house. I'm hosting a Stampin Up! party at my house on Sunday. I've got to get my house and scrap room picked up but this addiction keeps getting in the way. Anyway, this is why I've been MIA lately. When I get finished with these books I am so going to have withdrawl.
