EDK got to play!

Yesterday, I spent a few hours at Jamie's house. I finished a couple of projects for her that I had promised to do forever ago. We also got to play on Yoville and she was showing me how to edit things for my blog! It was fun. I am hoping to start blogging more regularly now. I am also hoping to learn how to scrapbook digitally and rid myself of all the paper clutter around the house that I have acquired. Not quite ready to give the tools up yet, though, because i am still hoping to find/make time to make cards. And, I suppose, do the occassional scrapbook page for a real album.

Difficult Adjustments!

I have been having a hard time adjusting back to the routine schedule after such a nice break without obligations. Back to therapies and lessons and scouts. 

Therapies and lessons and scouts, Oh My!

This is the reason for the difficult adjustments:

too much fun with family here for Christmas, a birthday/New Years' party, and spending a relaxing first weekend of the new year at Snow Mountain Ranch with the family! 

I guess we wouldn't know we were relaxing and enjoying ourselves if it weren't for the oppositional grindstone! (LOL)

Happy Holiday Blahs!

OK, so here it is 2 days after Christmas and I have been very tired and feeling kinda lazy too. The relatives have mostly gone (my BIL leaves tomorrow), we've eaten mostly leftovers for 2 days (we had fresh pizza last night), there are toys everywhere, again (we just cleaned the house 4 or 5 days ago), and now I can't bear the thought of even starting on the cleaning process again until after the boys are back at school, but I know I've gotta get on it Monday because I am hosting a birthday party for one of my very close long-time friends!

OK, enough with the "woe-is-me" and onto the "whoa-is-me" for another 2 days at least. 

Then, I know I'll get going again on Monday! :)

I can't wait for the party. My friend's birthday is Dec. 31st, her favorite holiday is Halloween, and, she's never ever had a birthday party before. So, we are doing it up right for her 40th. Since everybody stays up all night anyway, we are going to have a dress-up halloween-themed party for New Year's Eve, featuring the birthday cake as a kitty-litter cake. I am so excited about this. It should be lots of fun!

Well, I am really going to try to update this more often,  try being the operative word.
