Day of rest *(arm update)

Yesterday I took a day of “rest” which cracks me up as I worked all day, went to physical therapy for an hour on my shoulder, then grocery shopping for an hour ($300 and NO meat. What up with prices!!)…and I consider that rest. What is wrong with this picture???  The only “rest” I had was not doing water aerobics. I should have gone but lost my mojo after physical therapy, a run to the PO and on my way home to get my suit I lost the mojo out the window - why didn’t I take my suit with me?? Well therapy was at 3:00. Who thought it would go to 4:00 plus?  Not me!

What did they do? Tests then they did some acupuncture then exercise then electro shock therapy (tens unit). Then sent me home with exercises to do at home. 

On that note I AM going to “rest” and craft and laugh with some wonderful women this weekend. I’m goi g to a women’s retreat. Most will be sewing, some will be scrapping. I will be listing things on eBay, eating, sleeping and a few card kits. I’m also going to try to use my Big Shot this weekend to see if I really want to keep it or sell it to Mike. 

Oh yeah, that’s another update. I sold the whole lot of scrapbook supplies to a person in Florida. He and his friend do scrapbooks. They have classes and everything. They will have a ball with all the stuff I sold them. This is what went out the door!!

Why YES that is a LOT of paper. But let’s be honest. I was never going to use it. I have made exactly two scrapbooks in 5 years and I felt obligated to do them for the Europe castle tours. 

WHAT are these you ask?  Invitation blanks. What did I use them for?  Christmas cards. Yes, they make great blanks for cards. No one likes or commented on the ones I made the last time. I DID get comments that they missed my kid picture cards. So. Harumph. Guess that was not a good idea and with invitations going electronically now, they’re rather useless to me. So OUT they go!  Pretty or not!!

These are embellishments. Lots and lots of embellishments!!. 

Washi tape overload!!

Card blanks. 

Kits because let’s face it. Not gonna. Happen!!

Calendar blanks. And stuff more stuff!!

ALL have a happy new home in North East Florida. 

Florida Family time

It’s been a while since these boys got together!  

This is the only picture from the weekend. It was fun seeing Donald and Robin and spending time with them. We had a few great meals out enjoying Florida when it wasn’t raining. Surprisingly we had a few days of rain over the weekend. We sat around and visited and just enjoyed catching up. 

We got some sun in the late afternoon’s - which is opposite of what it normally is. Normally it’s sunny throughout the day and rainy in the afternoon as heat sucks all the moisture into the air. Nope. Rain in the morning clearing in the evening. 

Sally got a new pool deck - it’s so pretty!  I took this picture for Liz as we bought her the two plants on the corner earlier in the year and planted them. They are doing great!

Fun relaxing weekend. A few things done around the house for maintenance and headed home later on Monday.
