thanks everyone for the comments on the button tree. it is cute sitting up in my studio … even though it was tedious to make! lol!

my weekend didn’t start off that productive. friday dina and i went out for the afternoon … hit a scrapbook store a few towns away, had mexican for lunch, got starbucks. nice to get out and hang with a friend. once i got home and the girls came home from school … i was done. joe turned on a movie around 4:30 … "flicka", with my boyfriend tim mcgraw. i had already seen it at the theatre … but next thing you know the three of us (alyssa had gone to her dad’s) were stuck on the couch for the entire movie. i never watch movies … and certainly not during the day. lol! we ended up grabbing some burgers for dinner and the rest of the night was a boring blur.

for some reason i decided not to take a sleeping pill last night. not sure why. they’ve really helped the last few months … and i think with getting more sleep, i don’t have as much pain when i get up in the morning. but since i didn’t take one … i was awake the entire night. sucked! i layed in bed until 11:00 am just not even wanting to get up. not really sleeping … just had no desire to get out of bed. finally got up though and actually started some laundry and picking up around the house.

then i made myself do some cleaning in my studio. not that it was messy. i’m a very neat scrapper. but i did have some piles of stuff that just wasn’t being used. put stuff away. unpacked some monthly kits. cleaned out my pattern paper … made up a whole stack to give to a friend that wants to maybe start scrapping. then took out a bunch of the layouts that are half-finished … the ones i never got around to adding a title, journaling, or embellishments. and i finished up a bunch of them. most of them aren’t even ones i would bother sharing … just simple and plain. but they’re done. that’s what counts, right?

also stared pulling out some supplies for the scrap-a-faire classes i signed up for. 2 of the classes have huge supply lists … luckily most of it i have laying around. just trying to get it gathered up so that i’ll be all ready and actually do the classes.

also made another successful rachael ray dinner tonight. i need to do my post on this subject … will do that tomorrow. i’m totally addicted to cooking her meals. which i think the family likes at times. but other times they get a little scared. lol!
