2/15/09-Finally. . .

I'm getting around to posting something. Things have just been crazy. Jeff hurt his back the beginning of January so I've been busy doing everything-cooking, cleaning, shoveling, loading the pellet stove, just things that I take for granted that he sometimes does.

Here are my pages for the 365 project. I really haven't done much scrapping and I keep forgetting to take my pictures. For the next few days I will be posting my 365 pages and some layouts I've been trying to do.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines day. Back to work tomorrow!!!

1/20/08-Inaugaration Day

So my retreat went really well. We all thought we were going to freeze never expected so much snow though. Yes, we got more snow. Holy cats did we get snow. Below is the grounds keeper snow blowing the snow away from our cabin. You can't really tell but there was at least 6-8 inches of snow that fell Saturday night. Then we got more Sunday afternoon. Some fell today but not much.

The top picture is our current snow fall. I know I keep posting the same place but then you can tell how much snow we have gotten. TOO MUCH!! I took the kids sled riding yesterday. We had a blast, till my feet got cold. The snow was knee deep where there wasn't any paths. (which would be between 16-18 inches of snow). The roads were awful again today. Icy. Hopefully tomorrow they won't be bad. I am so tired of driving on black ice.

I will post my layouts that I did later. For now you can thank God you don't live in Pennsylvania. Enjoy the pictures.

1/14/09-No more snow please!!!

So it snowed again yesterday and then again this afternoon. This is my deck. Isn't it pretty?!?!?!?! Now on top of all this white crap we have freezing cold temperatures. This morning we had -8. Tomorrow is suppose to be colder and then Friday is suppose to be a high of 1!!!! Is winter over yet!!! The roads are nothing but ice because they can't put anything down to melt it in these kinds of temperatures. Our road is snow covered but that's good because you can get traction. Where is the main route (Rt8) is nothing but ice. I made Jeff take Taylor to dance tonight because I don't like driving in this stuff. I keep asking myself why I live in PA.

Everyone keep warm this evening!

1/11/09-snow dogs

So here is Mikko coming in from outside last evening. She wasn't out very long and look at the snow on her back. I had my camera in my hand because I was trying to take pictures of the deer out back but you couldn't see them through the lense because it was snowing to hard.

1/10/09-I stand corrected

So our garage is 40 feet long so I shoveled 40 feet wide strip out 14 feet or so. Sorry I am awful with estimation stuff like that. Shouldn't I get an award or something-I know I know-Jeff does it all the time.

1/10/09-SNOW SNOW AND MORE SNOW

Here is the snow on our patio furniture that I was to lazy to bring in for the winter. As you can tell we have quite a bit of snow. This was taken around 4:30 this afternoon. And as proof here I am finishing up a scoop of snow. The dogs loved it.

Twitch I think likes to eat the snow more than anything. For those of you who aren't familiar with our house, I went about 14 feet out from the garage and the driveway is about 14 feet wide. My arms are tired. Our neighbor came down and plowed us out after he got out of work this afternoon. Thank God. I really don't feel like shoveling anymore. Watch for more snow pictures tomorrow. We are suppose to get another 3-6 inches. Then at the end of the week (just in time for my retreat) the high temperature is only 8!!!!! with a low of -3. Yikes! As long as it doesn't snow I'm there!!

Have a good night everyone.

1/8/09-365 page done

So Here is my first page finally. I actually had everything packed away to start putting things together for the 365 project when I decided to just do it tonight. My husband is watching college ball and I really don't feel like watching TV so what other option is there except to scrap.

On the swirly paper I am going to put the Title 365 in there with my cricut letters and then add another journaling block at the top if I have to. I only have 2 days worth here but it's a start.

I have started to print the other pictures so I can stay ahead of that part of the game and then I will work on journaling boxes and arranging them at the retreat.

The weather has turned yucky as I guess I should expect it should but I am hating the frigid cold temperatures. I don't mind the snow if it would just come down nice and easy instead of the snowy blustery storm we had last night. As much as I hate the cold temperatures, my plan is to take the kids sled riding on the 19th because there's no school and I took the day off to spend with them to do something fun. We'll see if we still have snow by then. We should because I think it's suppose to snow from now till eternity (or at least the next 6 days).

I hope your enjoying the new year and working on your 365 project. Remember one picture at day and putting them in these really easy sleeves make it so much simpler. If your in need of these sleeves, please let me know I will be placing an order in the next couple of weeks.

Have a good weekend everyone!
