Work, work, work & more work

Picked up an extra shift Monday from 3-12, worked 3-11 Tuesday and the from 11-7 sleep shift. Have today off and then work Thursday all day for training, Fri from 3-12 and then the weekend from 11-2230 hours. When do I have time to play?

Happy Monday

My family will attest to the fact that I've been grumpy lately so I have decided I'm going to try really hard to be more positive. Have a wonderful Monday, whatevcr you are doing today!
I work at 3 but have some time before then to do some errands and have lunch with my daughter. Aaron can't come home for lunch because of volleyball practice but maybe I'll be able to catch him for coffee on Wednesday.

Reorganzing my craft room

I am in the middle of reorganizing my craft room once again and wonder why I ever started. I would like to start from scratch but that is not possible. My room is the size of a small bedroom with one large window and a closet. All of the walls are covered almost to the ceiling with stuff. There is too much in there so I can't find anything. I'm going to have to purge. I think I may donate a lot of things I don't use to my son's teacher who wants to start a card making club at lunchtime with her grade 7 and 8's.

First I cleared the punches from the over the door rack and put them on curtain rods hung on my wall behind the door. Now I can close the door and no one will know what is behind it unless I want them to.

Next I have to relocate some of the shelving that is sitting on my table taking up valuable workspace and find a spot for it all.

Its all taking much longer than I first anticipated but that seems like it is my current reality. I will show you my changes when I am happy with them but for now,

Happy crafting.

Remembrance Day

I just attended the Remembrance Day Ceremony at my children's school and as always was very moved by the young voices. The following video was one they showed.

Visited by 2 witches

Jenna and her friend Gabby were Bewitched tonight. The girls had lots of fun and Aaron couldn't wait unitl they got home so he could raid his sister's bag.

Happy Hallowe'en

Have fun this perfect Hallowe'en evening.

Wishing Jenna's teacher the best

Jenna came home today with the news that her teacher will be undergoing surgery for breast cancer next week. We wish her the best and hope she'll be able to resume teaching soon.

Cool Hallowe'en suckers for card

Found these cool suckers and thought they would be perfect to use with the Hallowe'en stamp from the Sweet Centers set. Inked up the square stamp with 3 different colours for a fun look and I used a retired itty bitty Hallowee'en set from last year for the background of the card.

Today is the Annual GI Fundraiser

Jenna and I are off today for Heather and her Simply Starts team's GI Cancer fundraiser. Can't wait!

Wow its been a while

I can't believe its already the 21st of October. Been busy working and then came down with the flu on Monday evening. Will post when I'm feeling better.

Checking out the new car

Aaron and Jenna were almost as excited as I was to have the new car home. I'm a little scared though. Canada's Worst Driver tv show has taught them more than I want them to know about my driving habits.

Warm and snuggly

My afghan is not finished yet but Kally thinks its warm and snuggly
