Cardmaking with Linda: Disney Cruise

Time to

Let ya'll know were still here. The past few days have been busy for me. We went on a Disney Cruise with Sonsearae and all I've done is sleep and do laundry since we returned last Saturday. We had a grand time!

Yesterday a local restaurant, Mission BBQ was celebrating US Navy Veterans by offering a free BBQ sandwich so we met Sonsearae there and caught up. We always like spending time with her and Chris. He couldn't come but she took a sandwich home for him. It was the first time we left the house so on the way home we stopped and picked up some groceries.

Today Jim had a dermatology appointment. They had to see how his cancer removal was doing and lo and behold they had to remove built up skin that was tangled in a dissolvable stitch...it's healing ok but it will be awhile before it's completely healed. I get to be his nurse for awhile longer. After that we were hungry and headed to a new to us restaurant. Unfortunately it was lunch time and this particular strip mall has way to many restaurants and we could not find a place to park our black beastie. So onto plan two.

We had lunch at Food Glorious Food, each of us grabbing a sandwich. Then it was off to CVS to pick up some ointment the dermatologist said was an over the counter medicine...not so! We drove home and Jim informed the doctor so I'm guessing tomorrow or the next day we'll have to go pick it up.

We both ended up napping today!

Our weather pattern has been foggy upon arising, sometimes the sun comes out to heat us up. Then we have rain, sometimes the sun comes out again. Everything is very green and lush

The following cards were made in April.

these three cards show off both side of the DSP in what is called a fun fold

More cards for the Disney Cruise. On the cruise you can sign up for Fish Extenders gifts. Six to a group and you exchange fun items with your fellow passengers. We included the cards in the bags of gifts and also used them for the tips at the end of the cruise

Springtime Weather

Saturday started off foggy and chilly. Low 50's around 0800. Jim decided to sleep in. But I was up at 0400! Quiet time is good, I can work on my cards. It can be messy once I start getting the supplies out. Since I use the kitchen counter (not very big) it quickly looks cluttered.

The sun did come out for a couple of hours, then clouds moved in and by evening we had rain. The system wasn't all that bad but it did cause Netflix to stop and some of our apps didn't work on our tablets. It was still raining when we went to bed but didn't keep us from sleeping. Gone by morning

Sunday... let's see, we had some overcast skies, some sunshine and more overcast skies with a threat of rain. Sounds like Spring!

Spent some time with Sonsearae and Chris. They're going to Disney World Tuesday so we were cleaning out their fridge! Brought some food home with us
