A Busy Week …
But a GOOD week! Our Josie had her babies while I was working Sunday night. DH kept me updated. So, we spent our week on ‘pup watch’, with DH taking the day shift and me watching over the nights. While I miss my studio time, it always amazes me to see our babies grow and …
Silent/Healing …
I’m not sure why I would decide to develop abdominal cellulitis now. I don’t know how one goes about creating abdominal cellulitis … But, I’ve been quiet lately, in part – because that’s what I’ve been doing/GROWING??? Absolute craziness! Not what I had programmed. But, there you have it – this body has it’s own …
So, This Happened …
DH woke me to tell me we have chicks! OMGoodness, they are so stinkin’ cute! Now the pressure is on him, as these babies will need their coop within the next 3-4 weeks … We talked at length and settled on some plans for building the raised bed garden. Here’s my non-architect sketch. Those are …
Bring on the Spring …
I have spring fever. I am so ready to do some things in the yard. I’ve been reading up and watching YouTube videos, and I think this year DH and I are finally ready to bring home some chickens! I’m so excited. But first, we’ll be converting an old shed into a coop for them. …
A Quick Escape …
From Margueritaville – where NO Corona is served! [HaHaHa!!! … while pounding chest!] I received my new Tim Holtz alcohol inks today (ordered back in late January/early February). So, I had to pause for a moment and try a J.McGuire technique. Maybe, 1): I shouldn’t be so SURE of myself [Umm, listen and follow all …
And – In an Instant …
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 …
Pup Watch & Staying Busy …
As a first time mom, Georgie and her pups are doing great! She has even adjusted to having a whelp-mate in the nursery, as Gina is waiting for her pups to arrive (- and growing bigger by the minute!) … So, DH and I are staying close. I’m so grateful we have a finished basement …
Busy … But with Downtime
We’ve had a busy week … welcoming pups on Tuesday. Our Georgie is doing a great job as a first time Mom, but we’re staying close to keep an eye on all. So – I’ve had plenty of time to work on cards – stamping, masking, die-cutting, coloring … And(!) – I organized my growing …
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 …
