Project Life 2011-Week 3 POTD

Are you all frozen??

According to all of my Facebook Friends it is around 20* BELOW 0 in my hometown.

Ack!

All I can say is:

I'm sorry- that sucks!

Be careful & stay warm.

And

This is why I live in Texas now!

Here are this week's POTD

(I love sharing these with you- totally keeps me accountable to keep taking them!)

 1/16

Steve made me his fabulous Sausage & Potato soup for dinner- one of my favorites!

Yummy!

 1/17

I have a dream...

of living into my 80's (or more!) like my Gram.  

Which is why I put these on & went walking, even though I really didn't feel like it.

 1/18

I received an email from Uncle Johann about Aunt Mariette's surgery & prognosis.

I made her this card so that she will know that her family in the US cares about her and is thinking happy thoughts for her quick recovery.

 1/19

I spent an hour or so today taking pictures of the house so that we will always remember what the first home we shared looked like.

 1/20

Brrrrr...

Time for some hot tea.

 1/21 

I made some fresh, homemade bread today.

Yummy yummy yummy

1/22 

A visit to Lowe's to pick up blinds, light bulbs & a shower curtain rod after our final walk-through of the new house!  We're in the home stretch!!

We close tomorrow!  Whoohooo!

We'll let you know how it goes next week!

Stay tuned for crafty-ness tomorrow!

Project Life 2011-Week 2 POTD

Phew... 

What a crazy, busy week it has been.

But we're 1 week closer to having our house!

I can't wait!!!! 

And I've gotten lots of super-fun DT  & blog-hop projects finished. 

I can't wait for you to see them!

But not today-- today is POTD day.

Here are this week's photos:

 1/8

IHOP for breakfast. 

SOOO not on the diet, but oh well.  

IHOP pancakes are worth a few more sit-ups.

 1/9

Snowy day in Dallas.

Not something that happens very often, 

so I just had to have a picture of the new house, all covered in snow.

 1/10

 This was not quite the picture I had planned.

I've been doing most of the cooking around our house for the last several months, 

but once in a while, I can talk Steve into making me something special.  

Today, he made his famous meatloaf for dinner. 

As this is one of my favorite meals, I had planned on taking a picture of it as my POTD.

But when the time came to eat, I was so hungry & it smelled soooooooo good, 

that I forgot.

Oh, well.

The empty plate probably gets the point across better anyway.

:-)

 1/11

 19*F outside. 

Brrrrrrr.

Gotta start my day with something warm....

 1/12

 Still super-cold outside (for Texas anyway)

Even Claire-Cat needs a blankie to keep warm.

 1/13

 Clean My Desk Day.

It certainly needs it.

Maybe I need to have this day more often...

 1/14

 Stamp, Scrap Art Tour Make & Take Night.

Something I do with The Posse every year.  

We spend a couple of hours making pretty stuff & driving Ted crazy, 

then head to one of the local restaurants to eat junk food, drink margaritas & traumatize  young waiters with totally inappropriate conversation. 

One of my favorite events of the year!

1/15

Stamp Scrap Art Tour.

An entire day of demos & shopping for stamp & scrap supplies.  

What could be better?

Like I said, it was a crazy busy week, but a good one.  

I'm still loving taking photos every day. 

And I love coming here on Mondays to share them with you.

I've got some great projects to show you this week.

Stay tuned!!
