Vacation time!

We leave for our Alaskan cruise Thursday! I cannot wait. A lot has happened here & we are in need of some time away, so this came at a perfect time! We are going with Tim's dad & Maureena. I just checked out the weather and it's going to rain! :( So, gonna have to pack my umbrella. We plan on going whale watching & we are taking a train ride into the mountains.We will have about a day on our way to the ship to spend in Seattle & a day when we get back so we are taking full advantage of that too. I have heard Seattle is a great city. We have to be there anyway, so why not check out the sights. We must go to the fish market, so I am told! I hope we can catch a fish! Will post when we return! (unless we decide to stay!) ;)

I did it

Well, I finally took the plunge & tried out for 2 design teams. I am so excited, and really hope I make it. It would be a dream come true!! I was also offered to teach a card class at a scrap/stamp store about 50 miles from home. I talked to the store owner last week & am just waiting for the e-mail to finalize things. If she agrees to my prices, etc I will have my 1st class on May 2nd! I made 12 cards this weekend plus some little bunny baskets for the girls at work. I still managed to cook dinner, do dishes & laundry! And, yesterday my parents & sister came down. The guys went golfing while we shopped. Well, we really spent 3 hours looking for my keys because I lost them at the mall! :( I got a phone call at dinner from the mall security, and they found my keys! YEAH! I don't ever lose things, so this in unusual for me. We couldn't get in the house or anything so we went back to the mall & kept looking for them until the guys got home. We then went to dinner at The Yard - my mom & dad love that place! (so do we) We then went grocery shopping. I bought my very first ham! Yep, we are having Easter at our house. We might have around 15 people. I am a horrible cook so this should be fun!!!

WOW I am a slacker!

WOW, I can't believe I haven't posted since last Nov! I am a bad blogger! LOL This weekend I am working from home so I am on the computer a lot so thought I better update. We are going on an Alaskan cruise at the end of June with Tim & Maureena. I am so excited. I am really looking forward to seeing all the wildlife & the glaciers! I hear it is just beautiful. We just need to buy our airfare and we are ready.
We are doing fine, just busy. I spend a lot of time on the road for work - it makes me so tired! I hate driving anymore! Since Tim bought the Equinox my car sits in the garage the whole weekend! Tim is going back to Sandusky at the end of this month to work at Nasa again, he is not looking forward to it.
I have been making a lot of cards, and just last weekend I finally started to scrapbook our cruise - I have 7 pages done (took me 10 hours). I never finished Vegas but I got tired of looking at the same thing so switched it up. Thought I better start on our last cruise before we go on another. LOL I would still love to be on a stamp company's design team. I am into card making much more than scrapbooking now. It used to be the other way around. I do sell my cards but not very often, and mostly to the girls at work. I just made a cool thank you card for one of the girls to give her aunt. She loved it, and it turned out so cute.
I will try to do a better job at keeping this updated!!!
