My Frame of Mind

These are my thoughts, however I may quote those who are smarter and wiser than I am.

Catch Up!

I've been a very, very bad Blogger!
Here's just a recap of the goin's on in case you aren't a FB follower, grab a beverage and sit back and relax!
In January, darling daughter turned 25. TWENTY FIVE?
I laid down on her unused bed, sucked my thumb and slept for a week.
My fabulous Team the Keys to the Heart had a Birthday Card Workshop and we had a great group of ladies!



We had our Stampin' Memories Scrapbook Getaway in February. I hadn't been in so long I had to GPS the Bradley House! Good times!
 By gosh I even got a layout done using our new SuperHero paper pack from CTMH
Since our local firefighters and EMTs ARE my heroes I used the pictures from our fund raiser dinner for them...

Then of course the Battle of the Old vs Young at my Alumni Basketball Challenge!
It was hairy (and sweaty) but our Old Guys prevailed…and another $40k raised!
 We are NOT the Bulldogs…we ARE the Apaches! And lookin' good!

Our new tradition instead of a Holiday Party (aka CHRISTMAS luncheon) at work, is we now have Summer Parties. It must be a PC thing. This year the theme was related to the Olympics and each team designed a Flag. I was volun-told and opted to NOT use photoshop or CGI of any kind. It didn't win the contest. 
Harumph! Can you guess which is mine?
The biggest news of course is my daughter moved to Col…Colo…ColoradO! Yes, I am, well needless to say NOT enjoying the empty nest!

She sold off all non-essentials and all of her furniture, vacuum packed all of her clothes,  added 2 pieces of furniture, broom and toilet paper shoved it all in her Accent. We had a don't-take-any-help-or-rides heart to heart over breakfast, created accounts on the app Latitude so I could keep an eye on her travels, and off she went!
Then I laid down in the middle of her junk stuff she couldn't take, sucked my other 4 fingers and slept for another week.

Watch soon for the next adventure after I woke up with 5 wrinkly, waterlogged fingers!
