I so agree with you Carol, make the decision and don't procrastinate! Sounds like a fun class for the kiddies, and I am sure you make it so interesting.

Good going on the chair project. I had to laugh today, while driving to my dentist appt, I was looking for some rocks, but I am sure neighbors don't want me stealing theirs! LOL Did you post the turtle and frog?

I am doing embroidery today. DS2 and I are going out to dinner this evening. DDIL is out of town with her family.

Everyone is busy! I am feeling super relaxed after a three and a half day break in Wales. Plenty of family time, fun and recharging of batteries.

Frugal - I am glad I am not alone in my diet and exercise struggles. I have no excuse as I know what is healthy and what is not I just choose to conveniently forget all that when I am hungry

Today I have been in the garden although not my garden. I bought some fence paint and it is too light, so I asked my neighbor next door if I could paint her fence panels with it as she has just bare wood. That way it is not wasted AND my neighbor who is pregnant does not have to buy paint and do it herself

I want to get that finished tomorrow as well as put some more grass seed down in my garden. The lawn has a few bare patches.

Dianaro...That is SO funny about the rocks! I actually haven't made my frog and turtle yet because I haven't been brave enough to "steal" the rocks from the pool area, and I haven't found any lying around any place else that will work. I'm still rock hunting though!

Bubblegum....You are BUSY!!!!

Karen...I'm right there with you and Frugal on the diet and exercise struggle. My DD is doing wonderful by exercising every single day with different videos, but me, I just sit here and do my projects while she works out and hope it will somehow make my body change into a lean, mean machine rather than the rubenesque (sp?) figure that it is. I look in the mirror and I see one of those old statues looking back at me. You know the ones where the lady is very voluptuous. That's me! Curvy!

Speaking of projects, I've been working away on some more of them. I painted a frame this morning for an embroidery that will hang in my office area. It says "Calm, Peace, Tranquillity". It used to hang in my bedroom two homes ago, but now I think it needs to be near my work space.

I also sewed up a little black/white gingham curtain to go around the front of my desk. I had originally wanted to hang it with a tension rod, but for some reason the tension rod was just not staying where I wanted it. So....not one to give up too easily, I got out my trusty glue gun and glued that puppy right to the edge of the desk front. I can hide things under there to my heart's content now. I won't, but I could.

I went through a big box of pictures this afternoon and choose a few summer shots of my kiddos from over the years. I used fabric covered clothespins to hang them on a wired frame that I made. It now sits on my mantle. It is SO easy to just change out the pictures as I want to this way. And, it's cute!

Tomorrow is my birthday, and for the first time in a very long time, I actually have a plan. I will be teaching my 3rd day of Dino Camp in the morning (LOVE IT!). I will read and craft in the afternoon. Then, I will pick DD up from her summer job of teaching music at camp and we will head to DS' new house with Hunter Kitty. (He's getting his new home tomorrow. Right now, he is sound asleep on the couch totally oblivious that his world will be changing tomorrow.) DS is making dinner for us tomorrow and his girlfriend is making me a chocolate cake. I can't wait!!!

Carol
I have found some rocks! (See it must be a GONer thing about not giving up!) and I wondered if you used acyrlic or enamal paint!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY tomorrow! Love when you can enjoy the day, week or months (you know my record!). Only went to June this year, I believe last year it went to July! LOL Have a great day.

Karen:
You can move next door to me any time you wish! What a lovely and kind gesture for your pregnant neighbor! That is so nice.

Glad you had a great time in Wales.

Bubblegum:
You are doing great on your monthly goals! Good luck with your school work. Sounds like you have everything in order. Knew that you would do it.

I too love eating dinner out! Have to rent some movies...not much on tv, or maybe read some books I want to.
