Slowly

Hi all! Things have been slowly getting back to a normal. Now what is normal? For us it is the routine of everyday life with a new job and our hobbies. So much fun.

I am hosting Bingo at VDBC this July but it is not starting until the 17th? Unless something changes. This will be a super fast power bingo game about the 4th of July. You know what it's about and how we celebrate it. I have some other bingo's to think about but was hoping to do one sometime about holidays celebrated that are not the USA holidays. So Caz what do you think? I may need some help with your holidays. Hope everyone is enjoying some crafting time. Ginger

Working on things!

I see it has been a while since my last blog. I've been busy working on lots of things here at home. Some yard work, flower/weed pulling, cleaning house, the never ending laundry, feeding the horses, cats and dog. Not much creating going on as of late. Hope tomorrow isn't to hot Friday, I need to mow the yard before I have to bale it. Although the horses like it when I have to sweep it. They get it in the pasture along with the two other neighbors. Not that they do this often but it is better than it sitting along the field and going to waste. I have a video to watch later on some craft stuff. Maybe that will get me out of this funk. Off to go get ready for that video. Enjoy your day! Ginger

Time?

Where has the time went? Seems I never have enough of it. So if any of you readers find it could you share the secret?

Did you all see the newsletter for VDBC? It is awesome, and looks like the subscriptions have almost doubled. Sweet! You can find it here or http://hosted-p0.vresp.com/628938/ec87cabd94/ARCHIVE. It also has 2 freebie files to use on your cutters. Then next is the wonderful, new June Grab Bag or http://www.visualdesignsbychris.com/store/product.php?productid=17268.

I can tell you you won't be disappointed with the grab bag. So go get yours today.

Enjoy your day!

New for us

My hubby got his job and school notice last night. He has been hired by CSX and school starts June 14th in Atlanta. He will be there for 3 weeks. Not forever but it will seem longer once he has gone. I have some projects to work on, hope it makes the time go by faster. We have been trying to get things around the house done. Like the driveway resealed, mulched flowerbeds, carpets cleaned, clean up the horse barn and garage, get him a new netbook with software loaded he may need, making sure I have gas for the lawn mower, and much more. On top of all this he has decided I need a new scooter. Which I really do and should have gotten one a year or so ago but you know with his job issue we put it off. So he looked at a Honda Ruckus (think that was it). Anyone have one? I'm looking for something that can go on the sandy grassy ground and still be on road. I liked the fact it has bigger tires than my Yamaha Razz. She has been  good to me (30+years). Anyway if anyone has any experience with this please let me know.

I also started helping Alison at the Free Digital Stamp Blog. If you have anything you want posted for a freebie let me know and I'll get you posted. I know she doesn't do much word stamps but loads of great other stamps. Maybe I can get some digital scrapbook and cutting stuff in there? I figured I had a little time and was searching anyway why not help her on the blog. She really does wonders for us, Thanks Alison! So, I'm off to go do some more projects. Enjoy! Ginger

Bingo

If you have not heard or signed up, Bingo at VDBC forum starts in 2 days. I'm hosting this month. Please go sign up. We have lots of files and challenges going on as well. http://www.visualdesignsbychris.com/ Well I need to go work on things before the storms get here tonight. It is getting old, to many tornado's and way to close for me. Enjoy! Ginger

New Card

Hope you all had a great Mothers Day! We did even though my mom is not in Ohio anymore. We did have a tornado go by this past Friday. Thanks god we were on the edge of it and just got some nasty hail. Lots of branches to pick up. Hubby and I did this over the weekend, now the woods is under water so it is not a priority. Had some more around today but not close. Not looking forward to Thursday since it sounds like they will be back. Hope everyone fairs well with them.

I did finally get some time to make a card.

It was fun and I hope you enjoy it! It is a freebie from Sew Many Cards.  The paper is double sided camo and the cut file is from I Scrap Designs.  I colored the little one with my copics. Love this card, I might just add a sentiment for my FIL for Fathers Day. He is an Army man. Well thanks for reading.
Enjoy! Ginger

More time

Well, I have been busy working on things at home, thought I was only going to have a week to get some stuff done with my hubby. But as luck will have it, we get a few extra weeks. He will know soon on a new job. Finally got to do the last test, now they are waiting for the results. The missed the deadline for this class but may go in the middle of May. OK by me...this way he'll be here for my birthday and mothers day.

One of these days I have to finish loading things in my gallery with the links and convert some files to share for those cutters. But first I should get everything moved and working to the other PC. It is getting there. Seems every time I get going on it I get a frantic call with PC troubles. Back to work I go...Thanks! Ginger
