Project 52-2: I'm Still Here!

Things around here have been crazy and I opted not to publish any blogs on Wednesday in protest of SOPA. But here I am back again. Today's image makes me happy! I got my replacement Sizzix eclips and I am back in business. I spent the day - well most of it - doing paper scrapbooking of a book I started for my older daughter. That should explain the page. I used the freebie mini-kit from Sweet Blossom Designs available at the Design Shop on My Memories.

Project 52-2 It Figures!

Hubby and I watch one network television show every week - Body of Proof. Thanks to Charter Cable - we missed it tonight because the picture kept going in and out. Yeah, I am one of the customers who reported the problem earlier in the day. So the TV is dark.

Project 52-Week Two: The Gryffindor Room!

No my DH and I DO NOT live in Gryffindor Tower at Hogwarts - they do after all separate the girls from the guys there. However, It was really starting to take on a distinctly Gryffindor-ish look once I crocheted the red and gold afghan.

DH and I found the red sheets on sale at Belk's here in town today. I have always wanted red sheets, but knew they would have to more or less match the comforter and afghan. The light was bouncing all over the sheets, but I couldn't have come up with a better color.

So now you know my dirty little secret - I love buying sheets. And towels, but sheet sets are my fave!

Sunday's Speed Scrap

Thanks Jessica, at My Memories for hosting another great Speed Scrap. And I really appreciate the heads up for number of photos and what we're going to do with them.

My parents were married 56+ years. Quite an accomplishment in this day and age of multiple marriages, divorces and let's-not-even-bother with getting married. We surprised them with a cruise!

Sadly, dad passed away in March of 2003 and mom in December 2007. This page was for them!

Project 52-2 My Memories

I really need to find new subjects for photos. It's just so darn cold out! Sometimes I feel like my diabetes is running my life. Gotta watch my diet, watch my carbs, watch the clock to take my blood sugar. Hopefully, I will continue to keep it under control with diet and exercise and not medication.
