So, it's Monday. School is on and it's really the first day I've had of 'normal' since tax season's end. I worked at the town office for a few hours, came home to have some lunch and work cleaning a bit at the trailer. Looks like my brother and his wife are buying it so I'm working to get it cleaned. It's sad and comforting at the same time to be in the house where Gram lived. I cleaned her bedroom today, still smells of her Charlie perfume. Funny how I used to hate that smell but now it's 'home'. Grace got home and we played outside blowing bubbles, swinging and took a walk to G&G Joe's. Grace rode her new scooter Daddy got for her 6th day. She loves it. Funny kid. She has a rock she loves to climb on when we walk along the road. She asked to climb it today. When she got atop it she says 'Hello, friend, I missed you this winter. How ya doin'.....too funny.

Didn't get any scrapping done today, but tomorrow's another day. I'm hoping to finish up Spring of '06 this month. I want to start on some Christmas projects in a couple of months so that will put the regular scrapping behind again. I'll post some ideas I have for gifts some day soon but one thing I'm going to do are the altered Starbuck's Frappuchinno (sp?) bottles and cartons. I'm going to make an assortment of spiced/sugared nuts and fill the bottle with them and alter the outside along w/ the carton.

CKC Manchester is just around the corner. It's selfish of me to say this since I JUST had a 2 day scrapping get-away, but I CAN'T WAIT. I'm secretly hoping Mike will repair the ceiling of our bedroom while I'm gone. It was damaged this winter when a large ice damn on the roof started to melt. I'm also 'dreaming' about him FINALLY putting the ceramic tile on the laundry room floor so I can get the walls painted. Hey, a girl can dream can't she? :)
