What have I been up to?

Making invitations... with friends and family illness's, busy lives and just plain ol' living, I had the pleasure of being able to make my daughter Kelli's invitations to her baby shower. (I say this, as the whole etiquette thing is weird sometimes as to who does what, I say whatever!) Anyway, I finally finished yesterday with the total number of 85 invites, and late last night figured out I counted wrong and needed 15 more! So I'll finish those up today. It's been a fun project, but labor intensive as each piece of paper is distressed with ink and then taped and layered. I enjoy the repetition a bit, it's kind of stress relieving. Isn't it funny how that same "job" would throw another person over the edge. It's good that we are all have these wonderful unique personalities or nothing would get done!

Anyway, that's why I haven't blogged in a while about a project...

FYI: A lot of those invites go to people out of town, so we really don't have 100 people show up to our parties, but we do have so many FABULOUS friends and family that support one another, it's is truly unbelievable! I guess that is what happens when you live in one place for 30 plus years!


"Thank you for being my friend...." I'm singing to myself.......
