Cold in Florida?
It's true, it has been cold at night here in the Sunshine state! We have the sunshine that warms us up to about 70F in the daytime. Last night DH and I actually had two quilts on us. One cotton quilt and midnight he pulled up the comforter that covers our bed. Time to put the electric blanket? I think not! Monday is supposed to be back into the 80'sF! I enjoy the cool, dry weather and do not wish it away. My two little dachshunds are shivering and burrowing under the comforter!
I have been so tired following Cracker Crop, not allowing myself time to rest as I try to rush back into the groove of a SAHW! This morning with my aches and pains I had DH bring me an Aleve in bed. I stayed in the bed nestled with Rustie and Josie until almost 10 AM. Now up and at 'em time to tackle my studio and replace all the items I took to Cracker Crop in thier rightful homes. First I plan to actually clean the room even sweep the floor of all the chad, glitter, embossing powder and sand that gets tracked in. Once I do that I can set up my computer, printer and Cricut straighten my stash and go back to creating!
The cold weather has brought out the crock pot. Chili on Monday and chicken with noodles last night! Tonight may be left-over night! I still hate to cook and be in the kitchen. I must make myself unload the dishwasher and tidy up the house so that I can get on to cleaning the house another day this week.
Staying home, while I'd hate to go back to work, sometimes is lonely and boring! My girlfriend time is very important to me not to exceed my time with my husband! He's gone 10 to 12 hours a day, commuting about the state with his Civil Engineering Inspection job. He goes to Winter Haven, Bartow, and Tampa primarily, although of recent he has been going to Orlando and Kissimmee as well. Thank God he has a company truck and fuel!
Enough of my rambling and up and at 'em! I think I need some perky music to motivate me!

Thank You Amy
Thanks Amy for helping me pimp my blog! I spent days, literally composing the Cracker Crop entry and I apologize if it is difficult to read! I'll be using larger font and black lettering from here on out! I just can't go back today and change the blues to black!

Back to Bloggin'
It's been a long week for me! Friday is here and I didn't make the Reminisce DT! My style is my style and I'm not changing it for some fly by night one photo page trend! My scrapbooks tell my story. They each have a title, plenty of journaling and lots of pictures. I sure could have used that $500.00 prize to go to Scrapology in January! Maybe I'll be able to make, save up my cash, something as I need to get my air tickets and train ticket from STL to KC! I love going somewhere cold in the winter time! It's so refreshing to get away from this never ending Florida heat! I'd like to have a dozen wool sweaters and be able to wear turtle neck cotton t-shirts! I'd love to wear socks with my crocks!
My Cracker Crop is coming up quickly! I have lots of work to do, still! I don't think it's as bad as it seems but there's so much I want to do for the girls who are flying in from all over the country and driving 3 hours each way to the Atlantic coast of Florida to crop for 5 days! I'll love hugging their necks and laughing and giggling like girls into the late night!
I'm so excited and will be even more excited once I get all of my gadgets packed and ready to roll!

1. One of the best concerts/plays/movies I ever saw that I really didn't think I'd like was Mama Mia.
2.DH made mojo criollo chicken, stir fry green peppers and onions, rice and black beans last night and I enjoyed it mostly because I didn't have to make it! Is a meal DH recently made (or meal I recently ordered) that was delicious!
3. It's time for a "cool change".
4. Sweet tea is quite refreshing.
5. If I never hear the words mama, I need money! again, it'll be too soon.
6. To one side of the curving road was a golf cart, and on the other was a kid on a bicycle.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to chillin', tomorrow my plans include Scrappin' at the ABC House with friends and Sunday, I want to pack for Cracker Crop!

Friday Fill In!
1. Cracker Crop and my birthday are some of the things I'm most looking forward to in October.
2. Sometimes I have a melt down.
3. I do things I thought I'd never do, and that's why there is a saying, "never say never"!
4. When I'm down, I "face the music".
5. Home is where you'll find me most often.
6. A rainy day is good for scrappin'.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to sleeping, tomorrow my plans include more house work and planning for Cracker Crop and Sunday, I want to resting!
