Birthdays, Card Making & EPIC
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 …
Hibernating …
I haven’t decided if I’m battling some wimpy bug or just hibernating this week. But, I’ve been sleeping for long spells, with short periods of consciousness – to eat, peruse the internet and play with cards/paper. And then – back to sleep … Tomorrow is going to be a long one, with mandatory work competency …
Deadline 2 of 4 & The New Year …
I started the week off by meeting the (latest) new deadline for online work competencies. Which made the next two weeks mine! YAY! We had beautiful skies on Monday, along with some snow fall on Tuesday … I caught photos: [DH and] I gifted ourselves with an air fryer – so we spent much of …

We made some comfort foods (nachos, mostaccioli and quesadillas), played with pups and talked about Christmas plans. I made a card and moved some dichro cabs along: On a positive note …
I’m Not Dead … Yet ;)
Sorry for the really long lapse between postings. The reasons are varied, but combine busy-overload with creative funk, along with a bit of cleaning and reorganizing. And … officially entering my 5th decade of life. OUCH! My family knows me so well … And they all came to celebrate with dinner and cake at our …
Moving Past a Creative Rut …
Or trying to … I haven’t been making much, but I’m starting to get a bit of the mojo back. Last week, DH and I went to one of our old stomping grounds (bar/restaurant) to meet up with work friends. We had a good time, and I made a card for a dear friend (who …
Cuteness Overload!
So, I’ll start with the bulldog puppies. Even after diving into some home-made yogurt (as seen on Viola’s crusty head), they are still too darned cute. They love exploring in the yard, climbing rocks, cruising through grass or stopping to smell (and maybe taste) the flowers … Then we move on to cards – …
