Long time no post......

To say that the last few weeks have been weird would be an understatement. It seems that its been non-stop illness for at least one of the four of us, and the weather has been so roller-caster ride like that its not even funny! We've had threats of snow, tons of rain, days of gray skies and nights of thick fog....and we've had gorgeous spring weather too....days in the 80's, sunshine, gentle breezes and the smell of fresh air!

I'm still working on redoing my scrapbook room. The project started almost 2 weeks ago...and I've not made any forward progress lately. I have 2 walls to paint still, one bookshelf to assemble and LOTS to rearrange. I hope to get in there tomorrow....if Aiden is well enough to go back to school!

I'm so ready to welcome Spring in on Friday. I can't wait to have some warmer days, so we can have the windows open (thank goodness for no seasonal allergies here!). I want these germs to MOVE OUT already!!

Ok....I better get busy...another load of laundry is calling, there's a kid asking for food (first time all day) and my dear husband will be home soon....he's probably gonna want food too!!

To my Drinking Team---HAVE A GREAT time tonight!! I miss you!!!

Happy St Patrick's Day everyone!
(I'd post a pic of the kids in their green, but its not something anyone wants to see.....I promise!)

Time flies...when you're caring for sick kids....

It seems I've been running in a big circle lately...and the only stop seems to be at the Dr's office! Both kids have had wicked chest colds and coughs that can shake the walls. And now Aiden and I have pink eye! We've been to the drs office (either mine or theirs) at least 5 times in the last 3 weeks. Today's visits were hopefully the last for awhile. Got some good meds to kick my sinus infection and eye drops for our eyes. Hoping that the warm weather coming later this week will help a little too!

Other stuff happening around here....LOAD ended on the 28th. I was glad it was over, but sad to se it go too. Started LOAW (Layout A Week) and have my first page due by Saturday.....so will need to get on that soon! Here's the last couple pages from the LOAD Challenge:

I've not done any scrapping since the 28th...but I am redoing my scraproom, so I've been rearranging, painting and organizing! I hope to get to IKEA one day this week to get some bookshelves that I want, so I can get things back together a bit more this weekend!

Other things happening...its Dr Suess week at school for Ashleigh. They are celebrating his birthday ALL week. Monday was supposed to be pajama day, but they had a snow day (even tho we had NO snow...not even one flake). Today was Green day and tomorrow is Crazy Sock day. Thursday is something about wild color combinations and Friday is hat day. We made Ashleigh's Green Eggs & Ham hat today....gonna try to get some pics of her with it on tomorrow. She thought of almost all of it herself, and it's pretty ingenious I think!

Erik is finishing some training at work, and will resume a normal work schedule next week (I think), so I'm hoping we can easily adjust! (although, in the overall scheme of things, there's no point in readjusting....since he'll be switching jobs/schedules/etc again in May....).

The end of March brings the Scrap Shack's Crop A Lot Weekend Bash! I'll be scrappin from Friday morning til Sunday at dinner time! I'm psyched! I can't wait! It'll be like vacation....cuz I'm NOT coming home to sleep!

Ok....I'm just rambling, so I'll stop......night!
