She dances around the fire, beats her fist on her chest, high-steps it Gene-Kelly-like … SHE DOES ALL THE THINGS! Her family is protected! Her family is INSURED … She can breathe again! So, next up – ‘Margueritaville’ … YOU stand NO chance CORONAVIRUS!!! [I’m a rum and coke (Jamaican) girl at heart!] But, …
I’m so defeated! My year has been turned upside down, all on one day. At first I was incredulous … Then it started sinking in, and my hands started shaking, and then – as I was tearing my office/studio upside down, I broke down and cried. Thus went my Friday … pre-filled with crazy ideas …
Wrapped up all of my mandatory nurse classes last week, YAY! Got through the weekend shifts, and heard such bizarre complaints, I can’t even mention them… My goodness, but folks are losing coping skills by the bucket-loads! Moving on … On Tuesday, DH and I made nachos, making the chips (cut tortillas) in the air …
Yep … I did it again. I bought another plotter. This one is the (Brother) Scan N Cut DX. It’s sole job (for me) is to cut out stamped/colored images. Now I don’t have to fussy cut, or buy dies, or fight with my Big Shot … I LOVE IT! So, we cut some images …

Chloe had her babies! On Wednesday, she started stage 1 labor, and when she ‘returned’ her food, we were off to the vet.

But first … I made a few cards this week. And, I’ve got a few (hundred) more ideas rolling around. I did feed DH – my version of Eggroll-In-A-Bowl. He loves it. And, we made a small stock-pot amount … Leftover’s for the boys! This week-end we’ll be making a giant crock of (my) …
I’m TRYING to be good. But – I just spent the last 3 hours attempting to save the lives of virtual (plastic) babies … Judged by how quickly I threw ‘life saving items’ “IN MY BASKET(!!!)” … And, I’m not done yet. On Thursday, I’ll endure another 90 minutes playing ‘lets pretend’ with REAL plastic …
I got home from work Sunday morning (12/31/17) to find my studio furnace had died, literally exploding within itself. Fortunately, the damage was to the furnace only. My studio was a brisk 49 degrees, and the water lines didn’t freeze. Goodbye 2017 and goodbye furnace. As we roll into the 2nd day of 2018, I …
