Time for an update

Even though there really isn't anything to update. It's been a pretty slow week. I had a cold for a few days, but am over it now. Haven't started working out again or anything crazy like that, though! Blake is still feeling sick. So, we haven't gone anywhere except to Outback last Saturday. That was fun, especially for James. We had a wait of about an hour, and a server kept bringing by little trays with bites of appetizers on it. Our little picky eater LOVED all of them and kept crying out for more. After we were seated, she even brought him another one. I think she liked how he got so excited every time she came out.

Coordinates Collections had an online crop, and I won a prize! And, when Jamie, the owner, saw me post that I already had what I won and that I was offering it to someone else, she removed the post and gave me something else! That was such a nice thing to do. I got a lot done at that crop, and at the one I went to on Friday with my playgroup friends. I will have to post some pictures later. I am actually getting close to finishing the Italy album!

Tonight, I am going to a class at Archiver's to make a household organizer album. Finally, the answer to all of my problems. After this class, I'm sure my home will become so much more organized. Magically. Well, at least I will have a pretty place to store my "to do" list . . .

I am actually on a decluttering mission throughout the house. Working on an area at a time. First was James' room. After Christmas, we got rid of so much of what he has outgrown. And his toys are divided into 3, with only one batch out at a time. He appears to have about a 2 week attention span. He loves and plays with toys for about 2 weeks, then not so much. So I put them away and pull out the next batch, and he feels like he has all new toys. For about 2 weeks. Now I am decluttering my office. Scary.

Not much else going on. We're hoping to start looking at possible wedding/reception sites soon. It is frustrating when they are only available M-F 9-5, since Blake is working then. So, I guess they have to meet my criteria first!

I hope your entire family starts feeling better!! By the way, I have a 24 year old friend that had an afair with a married person and it was broken off. She checks her blog everyday!! I said "back in the old days, if you wanted to know what your love interest was doing you had to stalk them and drive by their house!!" It's just too easy these days :) I thought that was interesting. Love your Blog Heahter and Bud and I are doing well. Love Lisa

Glad you were able to get something you could use!

If that planner is as magical as you say it is, I might just need one, too. :) I've got some serious decluttering to do, too. One of these days...

Hope you have a great weekend!
