"Australia"

This was an awesome movie,,so if you get a chance to see it...you'll love it too. Hugh Jackman is so rugged and handsome, took my breath away!

Friday

No stamping today....I did finish a book I was reading though. The Rescue by Nicholas Sparks...it was so good it made me cry. I was pretty lazy today....maybe tomorrow some stamping will get done.

Going to see Australia with my friend tomorrow,,can't wait to see it. Hugh Jackman is sure a hottie. The previews look really good.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my family and friends.

Wednesday

I was pretty productive today...spent the day at my friend Danielle's house stamping most of the day. It was great fun! Can't wait to do it again.

Tuesday

Well today was my first of vacation....did alot of running around. School conferences, Tanner got a haircut, shopping adventure at Wal-Mart & Staples. Ran into my sister Judy at Wal-mart,,,was nice to see her. No stamping at all today :( but tomorrow should be an all dayer! I've still got to pack my totes for that too. I'm making dinner right now, so hopefully when I'm done...I'll find some time to get my stuff together.

6 days of vacation!

I'm so thankful that I have 6 days off...work has been crazy and I want to do whatever I want. Stamping lots is on my list of things I want to do.

Saturday

I'm hoping to get some stamping done this afternoon. Right now...my son and I are working around the house...bedding, laundry, floors, bathroom and soon will make a trip to Goodwill. I didn't have to work today...so stamping for sure tomorrow. I work on Monday, then I'm taking 2 days vacation and 2 days for Holiday,,,so I'll have 6 days off,,,I can't wait.
