Snow Day???

So with the gloomy forecast previously mentioned to hit at 3pm we dismissed at 2:10, then I stayed until 3:30 working on things, will we return tomorrow??? The kids were off the wall today ...if we go back it will be ten times worse...Some of us revealed our Secret Santa's to each other, I did...it made my day prior to my reveal to hear, that Lois had been telling others that this was the best Secret Santa ever...that Wednesday's gift (the journal jar) almost made her cry it was so awesome...when I revealed, she had no clue it was me, as I had her before, so she took me out of the running...Woohoo! Mission accomplished, I wanted her to have an awesome one for her last one before retirement...

Freezing rain started about 9 pm here...so fireplace on, will be up for awhile, if electricity goes out, all night...watching the sump pump...need to get an automatic generator so do not have to worry...

Now one more thing to share...

I believe in helping out small business, more than big box stores, so in my addiction I found EverythingbytheHand for my binder storage sleeves, (cards, embossing folders, etc) which lead me to her online store for my Spellbinders Nestabilities...so on her email list she sent this request..


Join CropStop in creating an ABC book to benefit ProLiteracy

We would like to give our CropStop Message Board users the first opportunity to take part in our very first Charity Event.
Use your passion for scrapbooking to unlock the power of literacy in someone else's life. CropStop needs your help in creating a child's ABC book. The book and an alphabet (donated by QuicKutz) will be auctioned off on eBay. All proceeds will go to ProLiteracy's National Book Fund. ProLiteracy is affiliated with literacy programs throughout the United States. (To find the program nearest you, visit their website and plug in your zip code.)

So of course I joined in (yikes as I normally do digi, so be kind) ...Here's my contribution



2 books were done, (upper and lower case) and now are on ebay check them out here

Well will share more pictures of the other photo holders soon, and some other projects ..(sorry I seem to go in crafty spurts...feast or famine ...LOL) Here's hoping we have a snow day! Catch you later!
