    T stands for Tuesday_200Welcome to another edition of T stands for Tuesday hosted by Elizabeth and Bleubeard. It’s time to share a beverage and talk about what ever the heck is on your mind!water for tea tuesday

    Holy cow!! We’ve definitely had a week to remember…or at minimum…an early morning to remember. We found out that our volunteer fire dept has a really good response at 6:20 in the morning. And we didn’t even have a fire…just needed EMT’s.  They just kept walking through my front door. I won’t go into the details but no transport was needed and all is fine now.

    After commenting to friend about all the men in my livingroom that morning I saw this on Pinterest and it made me laugh!!

    And back to normalcy. I created a cover page or perhaps it would be the title page for my latest journal. I decided to leave the name of the original owner of the book. It gives the book more history in my mind.

    My seedlings are doing really well. I picked up an herb pot at Trader Joe’s and have placed it inside the protective plastic bin as well to keep it safe from you know who. Naughty Miss Gracie.

    I also got the pink streak put in my hair again.  halfThe kids are on Spring Break this week. We are enjoying a mellow week at home. Little J and I saw Cinderella yesterday. It was pretty good. More sad than the animated version but not as dark as the original fairy tale.

    I’m not sure what the rest of today has in store yet. That’s the beauty of vacation right?!?

    What are you doing today?

    life is short full page

    My back is finally feeling up to sitting at the computer for a bit so I can show you a journal page I made several days ago. It was created from bits of this and that laying around.

    life is shortA couple clothing tags…tissue paper…sheet music and an image I stamped on an old book page. I used watercolor pencils to give her some color. I didn’t even remember that I had this stamp. She’s just so darned cute.

    Alright…that’s it…I’m cashed out. Something about having my arms out in front of me just kills my back. I’m going to have to try a laptop on my lap sometime and see if that is any better.
