I'm going to try to post a few thing that I had completed a while ago before we leave for our cabin for the weekend. I was at a SWARM, my third one, the last weekend in April. I had bought a BIA last summer and had never used it!! I think I was too afraid! Anyway, after going on a girls weekend in the with 2 of my friends, I decided I would make a little book for my BFF who had never gone on a girls weekend before!! Can you imagine, she was 38 years old and had never done that! If you knew her and knew what a socialite, party girl she is, you would never believe it. It was a pretty big book, so I won't post all of the pics, but here are a few.....

Well, I knew I'd have a hard time keeping up with this blog, but this is ridiculous!! School will be out in about a month, so then I should have a little more time to try to keep up. I won't have to be a taxi-driver near as much over the summer!

I attended a Cricut SWARM, my third one, last weekend and had a blast! I have some LO's to share and I FINALLY finished my book that I made for my BFF Amy. Since it is opening of fishing this weekend, and hubby is an AVID fisherman, he will gone for 3 days, so I am working hard to get all of my housework done during the week so I can play this weekend! I have many things to download and share with you all. So stay tuned.....

Well, I think I have finally figured it all out!! Really this time -- no foolin'!

I haven't had much time to create lately. I had the week off last week for spring break, and had really high expectations about how much 'crafting' I would get done. Unfortunately, I didn't get one thing done, except a birthday card for my niece, which I forgot to take a picture of because I finished it right as we were walking out the door to her party! But, I did get a lot of spring cleaning done, much to the kids' dismay!! We also practiced are Mario Kart skills and watched several movies. So all-in-all it wasn't a bad week off, just not as I expected.

Then this week has been crazy right from the start. I usually work from home 3 days a week and go in to the office for 2 days. I have an 80-mile round-trip commute, so I really enjoy the days I get to stay home. However, I've already worked in the office 2 days this week and drove to a funeral that was an hour and half away. Plus each night, there has been at least 2 other activities going on, so I really haven't even had any time to breathe yet this week! But, I'm working from home today and there are no activities planned except going to the gym later this afternoon. I am really looking forward to the slow pace of today! And hopefully I'll get some crafting in this weekend to share with everyone!

OK, I'm for real this time! I think I am ready to 'go live' as they say, however, I still have some work to do. I just can't seem to figure out how to set up my header so it's a little more interesting. If someone has any advice for me, it would be greatly appreciated.

So I thought I'd start out with some things that I have done recently that I think turned out well. Hopefully you think so, too.

First, here's a birthday card that I made for a co-worker of mine.

I'm here!!!

Well, here I am!! I have finally gotten my blog up and running. I have been wanting to make one for so long, but I was afraid that I wouldn't have much to blog about, that I wouldn't have time to keep it updated, and that I wouldn't have very many people that would want to come and visit my blog. But I have decided that I will bite the bullet and go ahead and give it a try and see what happens. Tomorrow I will try to upload some pictures and share some things with the world!
