Hard at Work!
The title says it all...hard at work trying to set up and organize this blog. This is really hard work for someone like me who doesn't have a lot of computer knowledge about the world of blogs. I am teaching myself as I go so it is a very slow and sometimes frustrating process. So much for help from hubby, he's either working, out of town working or too crabby from working too much to even ask how to do anything. So I move forward on my own. What's that saying? "Slow and steady wins the race." Yeah, that's me when it comes to blogging. OK, enough whining. My next adventure is into uploading (or is it downloading?) pictures of my projects from my camera. Wish me luck!

So Little Time...
"So much to do...so little time." How true it is. My list of Things to Do grows longer and longer and even though I cross things off the top I continue to add new things on the bottom. At this rate, my list will go on forever!
I have been doing a lot of gardening, a lot of housekeeping, and oh my gosh, NO STAMPING! I have also been trying to make some adjustments to this blog and that is why there has been no time for stamping. I'm not getting very far, very fast so today I finally asked my hubby for help; he's a computer wizard. If you can catch him when he isn't super busy then he is a lot of help. If he's busy however, watch out he doesn't have a lot of patience for the non-computer savvy i.e. - me. You know how it is when you have something in mind for your overall blog look and you can't find what you are looking for? That is where I am at. I am also waiting to change my hairstyle before I post a picture of myself which I will get my DD to help me with. L0ts of things on the platter, getting done little by little with small baby steps. And I only have 5 more days before I go back to work for the month of June part-time.
I'm hoping to have some free time this evening to get back to stamping at least. I have been craving to work on some scrapbooking for over a week now but other priorities always push it aside for...LATER! Gotta run, someone has to cook supper and it looks like tonight I am the resident chef. HHMMMM? What's fast and easy - paninis! Sounds good enough for me.
Keep on stampin',

Hot, Hot, Hot!
That is the only way I can describe the weather we have been having for about the past week. It's too hot; I can't stand it! It just sucks everything out of me and makes me want to stay inside and drink cold liquids and do nothing.
Sorry, still no pictures yet of me or of projects. Yes, as a matter of fact I do have a couple of cards that I want to post but it really helps if your camera works and if you keep forgetting to recharge the batteries that doesn't really help with posting. So for now, words will have to be enough.
I thought I would get some free time yesterday to play with my stamps and do some posting but I ended up sleeping in until almost 11:00. Ahhhhh, that was wonderful. It's so nice once in a while to not get up until you WANT to; not when everyone else needs you to. I love sleeping in; it's one of my favorite things to do. Then by the time I got breakfast, showered and enough coffee in me to get my blood moving it was already into the afternoon. Oh, and lest I forget, HOT! Again! So shopping was next with visits to Home Depot, the local grocery store and then several other stores around here to find two matching metal trellis' for my garden. After all that it was dinnertime, then a little gardening to 'plant' those trellis', some minor weeding and then I was done. My energy ran out and I didn't even try to push it for more. I just gave up and went straight to bed - slept like a rock and woke up this morning - yep, you guessed it, still tired. Story of my life lately but I am trying to find out the cause of it and trying to fix it. That is why my blog posts are so far apart.
I hope to have a card to post tomorrow and maybe even a picture of me, if I can convince my DD to help me take one.
Stay cool,

I Have a Blog!
Hello Bloggers,
I'm so excited! I finally have my own blog. After blurfing for years and wishing I could do something pretty like that, I finally have one of my own. Very special thanks go out to Karen and Shila who helped me get started - well, Karen actually shoved me! But I'm so glad she did 'cause its fun and I really like it. I just hope I can be diligent in my postings. Sorry I don't have any pictures to post yet, I'm still working on learning how to do that. S'all for this time, happy stampin'!
