How was your weekend?  We pretty much stayed home.  Just a couple of walks...wait...yesterday we didn't leave the site! Obviously I make it outside everyday to check on my plants.   I do try to mail out cards everyday but for some reason never on Sunday.  Of course I could take them down to the office on Sunday.  Must give that some serious thought

Sunday was a very lazy day for me.  It was almost noon when I got dressed.  I did fix my breakfast and then later fixed some eggs for Jim.  But the rest of the morning I just sat...

Then life kicked in and I got dressed, made the bed and started laundry.  Jim did the breakfast dishes.  Part of the reason I just sat is because I keep getting up way to early.  I can't sleep.  I think it was Saturday when I got up at 0330!  I did go back to bed around 0630 and got up when Jim's alarm went off at 0800.  Most of the time when I get up early I take the time to make cards.  I've been making a lot of cards

We had this turkey wandering around the north end of the RV park.  Apparently it lives next door and it escaped.  I was a wee bit concerned as to why he was coming straight towards me!  Someone said it was a pet, others said 'until he's dinner'...

My goal again this year is to make 500 cards.

In my feeble attempt to organize some stacks of supplies I discovered some unfinished cards.  So I busied myself with getting them completed.    The supplies are mostly Stampin' Up!  But I like to work with other companies paper and stamps.  These are mix and match!

Colorful Cards!

Here I am again... not much to report in our lives.  For two days it's been rainy and downright yucky.  Neither one of left the house yesterday.  We eat, sleep, jump on the computers, tablets etc.  We read and watch TV.  Speaking of TV  we have been enjoying Agatha Raisin on Acorn TV.  Cute who done it from British TV.  We also watched the Rise of Skywalker (?), a Star Wars movie.

For our midday meal today we had that leftover spaghetti from Olive Garden, thus ends the pre-made meals.  Now I have to menu plan and cook.  We had some brocolini with it.  I've started getting a veggie box again, this time from Farmbox Direct.  Every two weeks and I opted for organic.  I have a referral code so if you're interested send me an email.

My goal again this year is to make 500 cards.

All of these cards were made with the June 2020 Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin kit.  The kit made 8 cards, two of each and with the leftover bits and pieces I made 8 more using my card bases and envelopes...I love the colors!

The top two pictures are the eight I made from the bits and pieces.  In my stash I had gold rimmed card bases so it worked out perfectly.

These 8 are the kit cards, the envelopes came with the gold foiling
