I’m on a pretty strict budget; I get paid every week so I
try to break up my budgeted amount so that I order something every other week
or so. Sometimes I order just once from one retailer so that I save on shipping
costs; sometimes I order from several different retailers because I can’t get
everything I want from one place.
I received some cool stuff on Tuesday from Sweet Stamp Shop,
and then yesterday from Simon Says Stamp and Stampendous. Here is what I bought
this month:
From the Sweet Stamp Shop I bought the Beer Wishes and
Handcrafted stamp sets. From Stampendous I got this adorable dog die from Dreamweaver Stencils. And from
Simon Says Stamp I got the new Abandoned Coral Distress Marker by Tim Holtz, PrimaFlowers Brush Strokes stamp set, and Mama Elephant’s Hello Script die. Sorry for all of the links, but I am cheating and posting this from work, and I can't get pictures to post. Shhhh....
I can’t wait to get busy creating with these new goodies! I
also have the SSS card kits from January – March to play with; the March kit
has my head spinning like you would not believe! I have to get my room cleaned
up (current status: looks like a F5 tornado hit it) so that Les and Jim can
hang my new (to me) ceiling fan/light. I am so excited!! Imagine, I’ll actually
have an overhead light in my room at last. No more getting to work to discover
my shirt has stains on it that I couldn’t see when I got dressed, or that my
socks actually match. It is a really cool looking fan too; it will go with my
ultimate décor once I finally get to start on that. I will post a picture when
it’s installed.
Before I go, I wanted to say WELCOME! to my two newest
followers: Karen Hasheck and Darnell Knauss. Thanks so much for following my
blog; it really means so much to me. Please take a moment to check out their great blogs!
Well, gotta go. I plan to make something for this week’s
Monday Mojo’s blog challenge, so I’ll get creative tomorrow! As soon as I get
up! Which hopefully will be before Noon! I’ve got to say, while I am very
grateful for the new work schedule (Tues-Fri, 7am-6pm), combining it with the
new Daylight Savings Time is just about to kill me. Yesterday I went to the
bathroom and fell asleep in there. I was dreaming and everything! I didn’t even
know I had fallen asleep until I woke up because I hit my head on the toilet
paper dispenser. Sheesh. Oh well; I’m sure it will get better with time.
TTFN!
You got some great crafting supplies in the mail. I haven't been able to visit you for a while so I want to congratulate you on your success with weight loss and taking charge with the issue of the diabetes, both of which requires dedication. My son-in-law lost about 90 pounds in the last year. No fad diets or anything except keeping a check on his calories through use of an app. on his phone. His wife, my daughter, has helped him to stay on track by cooking a reasonably healthy variety of things he enjoys eating.Have a great weekend!
