I wasn't even sure I was going to make one this year, but I started and so far I am done through day 11. I'm enjoying it very much.

Hey girls...I'm ok! :) I was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in September. I'm not symptomatic at all, and it was found through routine blood work. (that's a good reminder to keep up with your routine testing) It's a very slow progressing disease, and the doctor said some people go...

Sorry for the constant struggle with Louis Lisa. :( I can't say it was constant with mine. They seemed to take turns driving us mad! The only one we were able to figure out was Mikey. Whenever he acted up, we found we needed to spend more one on one time with him. Sometimes that was hard with three ...

The only thing I really want is an Epson photo printer. The Picturemate PM400 model. I've been on the lookout for a sale, but nothing so far.

We haven't had a white Christmas the last two years, so I'm crossing my fingers for this year. It's hit or miss really. Some years nothing, and some years we get dumped on!

Hello Daisies... Hang in there Lisa! My boys aren't into family movies anymore either. If I want to watch something with them, I have to watch what they want. The other day I watched 'The Grand Tour' with Mikey and Brad. Not what I would have picked to watch, but it was fun laughing along with them....

I will decorate this weekend, but the tree won't go up until mid month.

My 30 days of thankful. I completed the first 5 days, then I stuck notes and pictures in the pockets for the next 5 days or so, and then I just totally stopped. I'm kinda bummed that I let it slide. I really enjoy looking through last years album. I have so much to be thankful for.

Picking out the Christmas tree. I don't think it's quite as fun as it used to be when the boys would join us, but I still really enjoy it.

So much good stuff to pour over!

Thank you again for inviting me this month Emily. At first glance, the kit might not look so versatile, but it really was. I challenged myself to do a bit of everything with it. I managed to do layouts for Christmas, winter, and fall. It certainly would work well for spring and summer too. I also us...

I've done a December Daily album the last couple years, and loved the project. That said, I'm not sure if I will do one this year or not. I'm kinda still in fall mode. Maybe I need to get some Christmas decor up, and pull out my Christmas scrappy stash, I just don't feel ready. I guess it's coming w...

Mmmmm...pie! I don't think I could pick a favorite!

Don't hate me. I do like coffee, but I'm not a Starbucks fan. I find it bitter.

Carolyn! How did I miss this? Dottie is adorable! Great page too.

It's been a while. I don't crop well with others though. I get too distracted with socializing!

Hey girls... Chris is coming along. We had a follow up appointment with his surgeon on Monday. He (quite literally) vacuumed out his sinuses, which is really gross by the way! He was very pleased with Chris's progress, and gave him the go ahead to increase his activity, but keep it light. So Chris w...

I will cook turkey or turkey breast all through the fall and winter. It's something all the guys can agree on!

Lucky you Denise! I wish my boys would go to the movies with me. Chris is really the only one who watches them. If I want to watch anything with Mikey, it's usually some sort of documentary. Brad will go to the movies with his girlfriend, and he usually falls asleep. Cracks me up! Any way, Brad and ...

Carolyn...would love to see how your pages are coming along. I really like what you did with the Daisy Dory. I've not tried that kind of book yet. I have this weird thing about having all my pictures behind page protectors. I think I need to get over that! Anyway, I finally decided to go with a 6x8 ...
