This layout was picked for a Gallery Stand Out last week! I loved going back over some older photos to scrap this page. Those were happy days for the grands. I'm glad someone else liked this page enough to pick it!

Where Did the Week Go?
So much for my thinking I will be writing here more often. My intentions are good but my follow up is not. So with no more explaining, here are two more weeks.
The week spring showed herself, the week that the cherry tree was in full blossom, the week of a full grocery shopping via Wegmans curbside pickup and the week we got our masks!
The week that I Zoomed a lot, the week that I felt like cooking again (all that Wegmans food was inspiring) and the week it rained and rained so I ordered Ledo pizza for pickup.
See you again, some time...

Weeks 13 and 14
I got my life a bit more organized recently as I felt I was all over the place with it. Sometimes I don't think I am as affected by outside events - such as the Covid virus - as everyone else but then it hits me, I'm not thinking clearly, I can't prioritize etc etc. Yep, I'm just an ordinary human being. I got my trusty old paper Things to Do papers and wrote down some of the things I was procrastinating on. One I realized I really didn't want to do but had made a commitment. I did something really fun first then Just Did It. Of course it was easier than I thought it would be... So much for wasting so much time and energy avoiding the doing. Aren't we humans such foolish creatures!
and look..my cherry blossom tree went from buds to blossoms!
See you again soon.

Here Again
I think I got more overwhelmed when I dropped off the radar with Week 10 of my Project Life layouts. How to get food, what to eat, who was going to clean the house, what about the garden... while they have never all been my jobs, if no one else is doing them I feel put upon. But if I want something done that I don't feel I can do just now, I must ask for help. Sometimes, and these are Those Times, I must accept that a half assed job is better than no job. That's a hard thing for me to accept. But moving on... here is Week 11. I must say I really like that cool blue background border with the textured overlay.
Then there is week 12. March seems like it was last year at times. The truth of Covid 19 was really hitting me/us and it was depressing. I've only cleaned one more drawer since that first one. Sigh.
And I decided to get some more color into my backgrounds which also helped what I was doing for the CT I'm on, Lynn Grieveson's at The Lilypad. Plus the spring flowers started to bloom reminding me that life is strong. Mood elevator to be sure!
