A new challenge in my life...

My baby will finally be going to school this fall. I took the last 5 years to be home with her. Delivering newspapers very early in the morning, 7 days a week. I finally got my life back, since I was done with delivering newspapers.. My part-time job has ended as of yesterday. I have done a few things around my house to make it a better place. Now its time to move on to find a full-time job.

I am looking forward to finding a new job, a new challenge, getting back into the accounting field.

Today's project..

I was quite board today. So I made this project....

Here is a sample of the cards included in the teacher's tin

I spent the day working on cards for Kelli's teacher.

Notice the wire on the top card... turned out cute...

This weeks challenge was to make Anything but a Card.

My daughter, Kelli will be attending Kindergarden this fall and we meet her teacher for the first time on Wednesday. I thought I would make her a tin full of cards. Teachers can always use "thank you" cards.

Stamp Set: Crayon Kids

Ink: Black, Brilliant Blue, Real Red, Glorious Green, Only Orange, Pink Passion, Yoyo Yellow

Paper: YoYo Yellow

Buttons: Real Read and Brilliant Blue

Ribbon: Real Red, Night of Navy, White

Misc. Scrapbook paper

It's been two weeks since

I have had time to do any stamping.

I am feeling better now, since I got on the antibotics for the infection in my incision.

Today going to make a small gift for all my co-workers, since Tuesday is my last day of work.

Our department is being eliminated. So I am looking for a job now.

Then off to my sisters, to work on sweet corn. I hope this is the last of it.

This upcoming week, it will be running kids to school registrations and my pepsi shop.

Busy, Busy.

Take Care

It's been awhile

Well I had my surgery on Friday and now I am recovering. I am sore and been helping make pickles, salsa and canning green beans with my sister. Busy week ahead with sweet corn, beans and whatever comes up.

Well off to my sister's to make salsa again.

Take care....

Just a quick post... Here is my card for Challenge #2 for Pal Paper Arts.

Will post the supply list at a later time, since storms are in the area and I have been busy canning green beans with my sister. So far 70 pints of green beans done.

Dr's Appt...

Had my pre-op doctor's visit today. I guess my surgery is still on.. The only bad thing about all of this is that on Monday I get to start giving myself shots twice a day in the stomach. But it will be all worth it.

I will be glad when this is all over and I am on the road to recovery.

Monday again!!!

Another weekend has come and gone. Mark and I went fishing on the Wisconsin River with no luck whatsoever.

Working on my open house for September, trying to keep my mind off my surgery coming up less than two weeks.

Have a good day everyone.
