Two down, only 1998 more pounds to go!

2008-01-02T19:01:38Z

(No, I'm not talking about person weight loss here.) So, my first and primary resolution for the year is to reduce the amount of stuff (for lack of a better word) that I own and eliminate a literal ton of stuff from my existing clutter. Now, just...

What a productive weekend!

2007-07-30T15:15:20Z

I can't remember the last time I had such a productive weekend. Seriously. Everyone was productive this weekend, too! Chris and our friend Doug painted the front room until the paint ran out. (I didn't know how much to buy and only bought a gallo...

National Craft Month

2007-03-09T20:13:34Z

Did you know that March is National Craft Month? I had no idea (or perhaps I did but it was one of those random things that I actually forgot), and here we are, almost a third of the way into the month, and I really haven't done anything crafty. ...

30 things put away

2007-01-19T03:19:29Z

And, yes, they really are put away this time. Or thrown away - I did leave that option open. Of course, when I say "away" in reference to those things belonging in my scrapbooking closet, I mean "put in the appropriate drawer where available or pl...

Making progress

2007-01-13T17:35:47Z

Well, some progress, anyway. I bit the bullet and finally decided to get rid of my gigantic box of recipes I've been collecting since, well, 1999. I did a very cursory glance through them and decided on keeping a few (my mother-in-law's waffle rec...

So far, so good!

2007-01-07T16:14:10Z

After one week, my housework is still caught up. Hey - baby steps, right? I woke up yesterday morning, looked at my laundry bins (which I use as my gauge to determine how much housework I will have for the day) and saw they were still fairly empty...

QotD: Just Can't Get Enough

2006-12-29T15:20:01Z

What is one of your addictions? Submitted by Paperheart. I love paper products. If I can use it for making cards or scrapbook pages, I want it. If I can use it to store said supplies, I want it. If I can even use a little scrap of something, it...

So impressed with myself!

2006-12-21T19:03:31Z

I had to run a quick errand at lunch (to pick up the last piece of my husband's Christmas present), and I stopped off at Michael's on the way back to the office. For one thing, I needed to use the restroom (it seems my bladder doesn't hold as muc...

My Publisher

2006-08-24T15:59:47Z

I will need to give an update report once I’ve actually completed building and publishing my book, but I really have to give My Publisher some credit as being, so far, my favorite program to use for creating photo books. I played with it for a f...
