My Husband...

My husband is still battling his knee infection. So I've been hanging out with him at night watching some TV. He's very bored after laying around on the couch all day by himself. I'm is social event of the day! (poor guy) He's on his 2nd dose of meds. and has a follow up appointment with the doctor today. He's been saying all week that today I'm going to work, I just look at him and smile. Yesterday I finally told him that he has all week off and if he's so hip on doing some work he could finish up the tile in the kitchen. When I came home he was still laying on the couch, but he did get dressed. Being sick his not his thing that's for sure!!! He's driving me CRAZY!!!
On the good side I'm getting my Christmas cards
colored. I'm hoping to get those finished up this weekend.
Here's a couple of Lucky and Lulu cards I did this last weekend. I know brown isn't very Christmasie but I really like that one.
Sorry there so dark, but it's dark when I go to work and dark when I come home so I really need to make me a light box for picture taking.
I also pinned my quilt and have started quiting it... Hopefully I will finish that up this weekend too... If I can escape my sick husband....
Until later... Have a great day!! :)

Lucky and Lulu...


I've been playing with Lucky and Lulu. I think they are super cute! And easy to color.
I have a bunch more colored up and waiting for the stickles to dry so I can make some more cards today.
I can't wait for the new set to come out. I've seen it posted on a couple of blogs already. Very cute!
This is the first time I've really use the stickles... I like it and will be needing more colors!

I also think I need some more snowflake stamps this is the only one I could find. I like it but it has a bunch of little dots around the snowflake that I could do with out. So maybe I'll go ahead and order the Star Burst stamp set in the SU Holiday Mini catalog after all.??? Where did you get your great snowflake stamp? If you have one.
I still haven't pinned the quilt I'm suppose to be working on!! I need to do that some time today! I'm just not feeling into it, but it must get done.... So off to shower and get started on some things.
Until later have a great day....

Happy Thanks Giving!!!



Hope everyone got enough to eat! I had a lovely
lunch at my brother and BJ's house. She did an
awesome job making everything. I'm heading to
my sisters house to eat dinner at 7. Hopefully
my lunch will have settled by then. Luckily I
didn't stuff my self. :)
Here are a couple of cards I've worked on this week, but didn't have time to take pictures of until today. It's just to dark outside when I get home for picture taking. I need to make up a light box... Maybe I'll have time this weekend?
Recipe: Top Card
SU Stamp: Stem Silhouettes
SU CS and Ink Pads: Purely Pomegranate and River Rock
CTMH Ink Pad: White Daisy CS: Colonial White
Misc: Ribbon, Metallic Embroidery Floss, White Baubles, SU Photo Corners Punch
Bottom Card everything the same except I used SU Brocade Blue CS. I think they both turned out very pretty.
I'm off to work on some Christmas cards now and let my dinner settle some more.
Have a great day! :)

I Had a Shadow Today...

Today at work I had a shadow. A nice girl named Nicole who came to follow me around at work to see what I do. I'm not really a people person ( I don't do training) so it was an adventure, but not to bad. She spent a lot of time running up and down the stairs getting charts ( I'm the head receptionist at the doctors office). And we keep all of our charts down stairs in the basement. Saved me some leg work.!! :) Maybe she'll think twice and go to college instead! She gets to follow me around again tomorrow. Maybe we'll copy charts or make new patient files... That's SUPER exciting.... NOT!! All in all it was a good day though.
My husband had to come into the clinic today for his knee that is huge and this ugly red color. It's not pretty! Evidently he had an irritated hair follicle on his leg that let an infection get into his knee, but the hair follicle wasn't infected. ?? Who knows... He got to get a shot and these huge pills to take 4 times a day. He'll be having the rest of the week off, with his leg up. Way to get out of the Thanks Giving weekend honey do list!! I'm pretty sure he planned this I don't know how, but I'm sure he did. :)
I'm off to read my book and get some sleep until later...
