Rocking Your World--Week 7

Yay, it's Friday! That means two things first I'm done with work for the week and it's a long weekend here so woohoo three days off and second it's time to visit with Virginia and Annie.

The little Gorgeous celebrated her third birthday on Monday so we had some gifts and cake at home since she had her party with friends last week. It snowed heavily all weekend so Nana and Papa didn't make it out to get birthday wrapping paper. That meant that all her gifts were wrapped in Christmas paper. Not that she noticed--I think the paper lasted all of 5 seconds 😂

The icky weekend weather did mean that I got to spend some quality couch time with Mr R and I got to spend time in the craft corner. That's a win-win as far as I'm concerned.

And the mid-season premiere of The Walking Dead aired on Sunday. Weirdo I may be, but it's my favorite show and I've been missing it.

The rest of the week has been pretty quiet which suits me just fine. We got some more snow, but not as much as over the weekend.

Now I'm just gearing myself up to pick up my parents tomorrow and make the trek to my sister's in Ottawa to drop them off for a few weeks visit. Ten hours round trip is not making me smile, but it will be good for them to get away so trek I must.

In honour of the not so lovely snowstorm, here are a few funnies.






Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week.

Happy Stampin'!

Rock Your World Friday--Week 3

I don't know where the week has gone. What is it about getting older that makes the time seem to pass so much more quickly? In the blink of an eye it's time to join up with Virginia again and revisit the happy moments from the week.

I'll start with my Saturday visit to my parents. They are both elderly now (88 and 90) and neither one of them really drives anymore so it falls to me to take my Dad out grocery shopping so that they can eat for the week 😀. Sometimes it feels like a bit of a chore as they live about an hour and a half drive from me, but I know that I am truly blessed that I still have them both in my life and the lives of my kids and grandkids.

Saturday evening was Chinese takeout for dinner (Mr R's choice as it was his birthday dinner). One word: nummy! 

I've been trying to blog regularly and to that end I've been trying to get the cards done for my posts on the weekend. I would say it's been pretty successful. I only had one card that I had yet to make, but sadly, it didn't get done. Oh well, guess I'll just be posting it late.

That's about the extent of it this week, but I did spend it with family so it's all good.

I'll leave you with a poem that made me smile and will, I think, speak to most of us, no matter what type of crafting we do. I'll have to share this on Annie's Friday Smiles as well, because I think this counts!


Thanks to Lyssa Griffin Zwolanek for this fun poem!
