It seems so quiet here...

Recovering mostly.
I made so many layouts last week, posting, taking part in games etc.

And you?

 

catching up with normal house stuff.

 

Catching up and playing with all the photos I took this week!

 

It rained all day yesterday so we stayed in and wore jammies all day long! Today it is sunny and frigid. There was a frost advisory out for our area thru today at 9 a.m. So we hauled the potted plants into the garage. If it is dry enough outside, we may haul some brush over to our burning pile.

 

I'm trying to get some scrapping done! With all the other DSD festivities, I didn't get to do much actual scrapping! I also have to mow the lawn this weekend and we may go to the drive-in.

 

I'm working on a hybrid Halloween goodie bag project to mail to my grandkids. We always went trick or treating together, so this year with them out of state feels a little sad.

And don't laugh . . . no, go ahead and laugh, cause now I'm "that cat mom" who is pulling together costumes for my cats. Cat photo shoot scheduled for tomorrow!

Our town's annual PumpkinFest is this weekend, so we may mosey over there tomorrow to check it out.

 

Did some house cleaning so it didn't look bad when my cousins from out of town stopped by yesterday. Also, did laundry.

But, I did get back into scrapping! I did a double page layout last weekend for the song challenge. That challenge gave me the idea of how to scrap some concert photos from last year. So after I did those 2 pages I actually felt like scrapping another concert I went to last December. Then I decided to scrap the visit of my cousin and her granddaughters to the Armstrong museum in July. That led to the photos of that cousin's newest granddaughter born in June.... which led to finishing up scrapping the wedding of the new parents in 2017. Add in a layout of lunch get together in July with 3 high school friends. All in all I have scrapped 23 layouts in 3 days (not including the 2 done last weekend). Helps that on the multi page events I used the same kit for every page. And, I do minimal elements so it goes fast!

I think I'll continue scrapping today. No Buckeye football to distract me.

 

We’re at our trailer in WA this wkend so we’ll be shopping this morning in town, I am looking for a coat and purse. We’ll binge watch some shows later and I’ll get out for walks with Taz later. Not sure if I’ll scrap or not but probably.

 

It has been a busy week. I worked our election polling station - just a 15 hour day - on Tuesday. Recovered on Wednesday; ran around on Thursday and Friday. I did some scrapping last night. Today, I had a women's prayer breakfast and took a nap this afternoon. I am thinking about going for a very long walk because I need the steps. DD made sourdough bread yesterday and I indulged so it set me back. I may scrap this evening around 7pm or so...

This coming week is "off" before I start back on the repeat cycle of election work. It is surprising how exhausting it is to sit all day, but they are paying me...

 

I'm away from home - came over to the east coast of Florida to hang with two of my gk's while my DD and SIL went out of town. I'm catching some scrapping time in the evenings.

 

The usual! Chauffeuring my kids to their activities or working in the box office.

 

Don't worry, it'll be full-on Halloween fun before you know it!

It's back to school here tomorrow so we went (offline) to my mum's for a few days & so i'm catching up on laundry stuff now but my carpal tunnel issues are much better after feeling it during DSD so the down time helped with that You reminded me I'm meant to be sorting books from all our shelves to take to donate to the 2nd hand book fair next weekend though; we all end up doing more reading than sorting when we start though so it is kinda slow going!
