Update on the updates

Looking back, seems I forgot to mention a few other things about this weekend.
  • Thank you Wendy for the nice lunch.
  • For setting me up for the upcoming scrap. I tell ya, she and Mom are invaluable!!
  • I got presented with my first actual Scrap girl t-shirt!
  • That I actually did find the AC Moore, which I am eternally grateful for.
  • Forgot to take my memory medication, which I can't remember what the name of it is, or even where I put it.
  • My wonderful sister Judi presented me with a friends award, which I will treasure!
  • Did I mention that I'm putting a GPS on my Christmas list?

Weekend Update




Had a pretty relaxing weekend. Had an adoption event on Saturday, had 4 dogs get adopted, including these 2 and 1 kitten. Started out as a pretty sunny day, then it started to rain a little, got quite a few folks out. As usual, if we only have 1 adoption, it's a good day :)

After that, went over Wendys to do a little pre-scrap stamping. Debbie and Mom were there as well, learned a few things from Debbie, she is so talented. Came home and relaxed after that.

Today Mom and I headed out to find our local AC Moore, ha ha ha. Let's just say, I wish I would have borrowed Wendy's GPS, I'm gonna put one on my Christmas list for next year. I cannot believe how turned around I was, by some grace of God, we made it there, in one piece. Had a really good time. She is so much fun to be around.

So, I'd have to say it was a pretty good weekend.

Gathering Supplies



Been a busy month here, as usual lol But I have found time to start collecting some thing for the upcoming SDV.
Everyone has offered to let me use their things, but it just doesn't feel right, having to constantly borrow from others. So, I've been checking out EBay, trying to catch some good deals, and hopefully have done pretty good so far.

These are some inkpads that I got. I really wanted to get the "Stampin Up" ones, but Mom assures me that they'll be fine. There are 30 different colors.

Stamps that I have gotten off of EBay. Some of them are used, but in great condition. Now I just need to find some storage boxes.

We have a little drugstore downstairs from where I work. One of the ladies has given me all of these envelopes from their left over cards. They have to send the unsold cards back to the company, and they have been throwing away the envelopes. So, not only did I get free envelopes, i'm recycling...how cool is that? lol

SDV

Well, looks like I'll be attending my first ever SDV (scrappers dream vacation) with "the girls". Not really sure what to expect, they always seem to come back from these things totally exhausted, but have had tons of fun!! It's been so many years since I've scrapped, not even sure I would remember how to do it. Wendy has gotten me into making cards, so I guess I'll be working on those to fill up the great card box she gave me for Christmas. To bad I couldn't take my jewelery stuff lol.
