So It Is Sunday

I have certainly been a lazy slug today. Just no motivation, energy or will power to get up and get going. I guess last week was more taxing on the brain than I thought. Just a few days left of training and then we will be up and running (said with fingers crossed) on our new EMR. Can't wait till it is running smoothly and all those wonderful Medicare reports that I have to do monthly by hand should be available with a click of the button yahoo!!!
Yesterday Kim and I headed to Mystic Paper. I dropped my apron off and we caught up with Kim J and a brief howdy with Jennifer. Carlene was in so was able to visit with her. Judy B was also hanging out and it has been a long time since Ihad seen her. It was nice to catch up. From Mystic it was to Sweetcakes for lunch. Yummy pecan chicken salad and a lemon bar. Then it was off for a amarthon of ribbon, lace and trims buying escapade with Kim. Hmmm I may have to rethink who can spend more Kim>Colleen. I think Kim won this one. Of course I managed to pick up some beautiful laces too.
Then home we headed. I pretty much was a bum the rest of the evening:)
Today I have tried really hard to accomplish something. I finished packing Easter goodies, worked on a mini album and sat and sat and sat. Did drag myself to the grocery store only because I was out of Diet Pepsi. Otherwise no I wouldn't have even gone there.
So as you can see I am truly having a day of rest

I joined an ATC Easter Swap with Sandy of Her Vintage Sage. I was so excited to get them in the mail Saturday. They are beautiful ATC's


Working on some little Easter goodies for my staff and my kids and grand kids
Susan Kueter has a fun blog with lots of good ideas for layouts, cards and a cute Easter project. So you can see where my Easter bunnies originated from Check out her blog at Scrappy Land
Here is my work station set up ready to make more

and here are my little bunnies. I didn't have the QK dies so I used my Stampin Up punches and my cricut for the ears. I think they turned out pretty good

So I guess I should get off my behind and finish the laundry and maybe clean a bit or not.
My sister arrives home in Iowa from a month in Florida bet she is just going to love the cold weather back in Iowa.
Have a great week everyone

The Stockings Were Hung

Image
I hosted a small group for a Christmas Stocking Swap. I kept the group small due to my time and work constraints and deadlines I was facing. My idea for the swap came from a wonderful online class I took with Nancy Maxwell James of Sugar Lump Studios . I really enjoyed her class and all her helpful tips and so the idea was born. I assigned secret partners, to each of the members as well as a Dec 10th deadline. Christine suggested we all wait and open our boxes on the same day. So today is the reveal. The stocking are gorgeous and it has been fun as the photos came in to see how each of us interpreted the theme. We designed and filled our stockings with goodies and then mailed to our partner. Below are the photos of our stockings and a little thank you I sent to each of the gals. The stockings are in no particular order just how they came up on the computer. I am already thinking of next year :) and what we could do and to being more organized time wise so I can invite more ga

Today: Chaos, Cooking, Cleaning and Creating

Image
What a day. I think I put the "Labor" into Labor Day. After yesterday, where I basically sat all day I needed to get going. And get going I did. From laundry to cleaning to grocery shopping to creating I have had a busy day. I have decided that what I eat sucks. I rarely cook a good meal and then at bedtime I am back to starving. So in my great wisdom I decided I needed to get with it and start fixing better meals for myself. Cooking for 1 is not the most inspiring thing. I am so used to cooking for larger groups and I tend to make too much. any how armed with a list for the grocery store and determination I headed out. I shopped and shopped, loaded all the groceries into the car and unloaded all the groceries from the car when I got home. From there it was a whirlwind of mixing and making my meals for the week. But let's be honest I probably made enough for 2 weeks plus. Groceries waiting to be put away and made into meals It only took about 30 minutes to whip this all t
