AAM Monday: Project Life Weeks 46 & 47

The flowers were still blooming this week and I wondered if it would ever get really cold. A lot of jobs were done on houses on my street with the rush to get things done before any bad weather. But while we had a snow sprinkle, that was it. Not much hope for a snowy December.

And then we move on to week 47. Getting closer to the end of the year. But the leaves were still falling. Yes, global warming. But look! The Christmas tree came up from the cellar! and we had our 2nd Thanksgiving at an Indian restaurant. Kind of a tradition with a vegetarian daughter.

Back with more another day!

December 28 2018 - Finished Challenges

I really do enjoy doing some challenges from different scrapping websites. This December I only managed to do the ones from The-Lilypad but that's ok. There are 7 quick stories told and telling the story is my point. Next month I'll be doing the January MOC, Month of Challenges, at The-Lilypad which is a layout challenge for each day and it IS a challenge when you see some of the requirements. Definitely takes me out of my comfort zone but that's good. While I know my style now and know how I like pages to look, sometimes trying a new technique is fun! sometimes it's a lot of $^*#! kind of mumbling or even tears but I've done that month two times.

But this winds up December 2018 for me - plus the ongoing Project Life of course.  That wants finishing up so I can get into 2019 with it ready to go to the printer!! See you next year!

Yes, she did graduate

I pray that she takes this degree, B.A. in Criminal Justice, and finds herself a well paying job so she can have a safe and comfortable life for herself and her daughter.  It's time to create good things. insh'allah!

AAM Monday: Project Life Week 45

Well not a lot of catch up has been done, but I finally got my Christmas spirit in gear and have done most of what needs to be done in the house. Actually, it's what I wanted to do despite having a dh who has been sick with a bad cold for two weeks. I have said I think it's going into pneumonia but naturally he doesn't listen to me. Oh well...

So here is week 45, eons ago it seems, doesn't it!

AAM Monday: Project Life Weeks 43 & 44

It's time to get this Project caught up here so I can do the same with the one or two weeks I've yet to document. Travel seems to take its toll on blog posting and unexpected events do the same. But those of us who are pretty well dedicated to this project just forge on! And yes, Week 44 included Halloween. Kind of funny to see as we have Christmas decorations up now. Oh well!

Once in a while I read something that let's me laugh out loud.  Henry did that yesterday. Ah the worry about cooties...

it's all here

Travel With Me Tuesday: Boston 2018

My patient daughter in law took this photo of us on the T. Patient? because her husband, my son, will always try to give the middle finger to me, her, anyone. No, he isn't 14 but I have decided it comes from his father's genes not mine! even though his father would never do anything like this. 

I just shake my head and wonder....
