HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!

Yes, today at 6:25 p.m., I am officially another year older!!! I have decided that getting older isn't too bad....life is good,I have my health, and I have my best friends and family. The only thing I don't have that I wish I did is a job...yep, I miss working if you can believe that one. I've been thinking about trying to find something part time again just to have something to do besides housework!!! My DH is retired and really wants me to not work now so when he feels like doing stuff, we can just take off, but I told him I'm getting a little bored staying home afterall, I've worked since I was 13 and am not used to being idle....I also miss having my own spending money---my 20 yr career in Property Management did not offer retirement options, so no pension...anyway, regardless, I think sometime in the near future I will be searching for something.

It's cloudy here today, not sure if it's going to rain or clear up...preferrably, I hope it clears up but that's Indiana weather for you.....changes from one minute to the next. Guess, we'll be catching the Colts football game at 1 today since it's crappy out right now...oh and I need to return a couple things I got at Target yesterday--2 shirts that are the wrong size. Then it's out for dinner at 5!

A Little Sunshine today...........

Just a couple of new layouts that I did during an online crop last Thursday night!!

Gosh, here it is the middle of October already...we've had alot of dark, gray, chilly days this past week...but today, there's some sun and blue sky showing...Still chilly, but not like it has been; we're at least in the 50's instead of the 40's!! Just not ready for winter yet!

Well, I've lost another 2 lbs so only 15 more to go to reach my weight goals!!! I'll be so happy when it's done....It's taken me 3.5 months to get this far and I'm really hoping that by Christmas, I'll be where I want to be..then it's a matter of maintaining it (that's going to be the hardest part).

Nothing much going on here today...doing a couple loads of laundry and trying to pack for an overnight stay in Indianapolis tomorrow night...visiting old friends and co-workers for dinner and drinks then spending the night with one of them.

Hello FALL!!

Well, it's definitely fall with these chilly temperatures and gray skies....in fact, this morning at 34 degrees, I thought winter had arrived!!!

Update on the Lil Scrappin Mama Design Team callout...only 9 more days left before the deadline---midnight, October 20, 2009. They have been receiving alot of applications from some very talented scrappers...it's going to be hard to chose who will be on the team...

My friend, Kristie, and I did a virtual crop last night, it was a blast!!! We started doing it on a new blog she created, but ended up doing by email because it was quicker and much easier since it was just the two of us. I made it till 1:00 a.m., then pooped out...of course, she's in Phoenix, AZ so it was only 10:00 p.m. there; but we plan to do it again because it was so much fun and it's the most cropping I've gotten done ever!! Usually when I go to crops, I end up helping another friend do her stuff and my stuff sets untouched...so online is the way to go for me if I want to finish something.

This is a lazy day for me nothing much going on and nothing to do around here, so I'm just web surfing, listening to some good country tunes, and printing out some pictures to scrap...GREAT DAY!!!
