Where Does All The Time Go

Where does all of the time go? Seems like time has just been flying by lately. Has been awhile since I posted on here. Have been really busy with work and play. My dear husband helped me to make a light tent for taking photos of my crafts and have been working with my sister in law on a Very Merry Un-Birthday Party for a local childrens shelter.

Hoping this weekend some time to get my pictures of cards I made recently put up on here and also pictures of my neat, inexpensive light tent my dear husband helped me with.

What a Weekend

It was a crazy weekend. Got home Friday and my son sat down to use the computer and the wireless keyboard was not working. Played with it for awhile and realized it had died. Of course did not have a regular plug in keyboard in the house. Then Saturday me and my daughter went to a Slemco (electric Coop) meeting, where they were giving away twenty $2,000.00 scholarships. They also were giving away door prizes and an automobile. Jamie Bergeron, a local musican, was playing music, which was nice. Was a long morning though from 7:30 to 11:30 and lot of people. My dauther did not win one of the scholarships nor did we win any of the prizes.

After running around town and going to one of my favorite places Barnes & Noble, for summer reading books for Tristan, went and bought a new wireless keyboard. Came home and got it to working and my son takes over the computer.

Bought the book "The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane" by Katherine Howe. It looks to be interesting and was on a table with must reads. Also bought a funny book for my husband for his birthday, June 10 is his birthday day, called "Geek Dad Awesomely Geeky Projects and Activities for Dads and Kids to Share" by Ken Denmead. What made us decide to get this for him is they have a chapter called Parenting with Role Playing Games and Bringing Video Games to Life. This is so my husband. Of course he has never used role playing games to parent, but probably because he never thought of it.

It's Monday so off to work I go! Have a great day!

Slipping Through My Finger...


The song "Slipping Through My Fingers" keeps running through my head. It is a song by ABBA and it is on the "Mama Mia" soundtrack. Guess with Graduation and our daughter getting a job and starting college in August it just speaks to me. Seems like just yesterday she was a little girl and now she is a young woman. An amazing young woman! My heart swells with pride when I listen to her and see the young adult she is becoming. She is so out of the box and her own person, truly marches to her own beat. I have always told my husband she is a old soul in a young persons body. Another song that keeps running through my head, as I have sat and scanned pictures of her as a child into the computer, is "Child of Mine" by Carole King. Yes! I'm sappy and sentimental, but such a proud Mama.
