Just a quick Hi as I'm "attending" a live webinar in 15 minutes. It's on maps in genealogy which I think I should see as I'm talking about maps, from a slightly different angle, at my computer genealogy group in January. Hugs to all.

Today was nice with a great group, larger than usual, at the senior center genealogy group. One came in a Santa hat with little blinking lights. It was really cute but I said he was all lit up. We do have a good time and talk about genealogy. I think two discovered relatives in common! I'm a...

Beautiful, festive and very joyful.

Oh what a wonderful idea and simply gorgeous front to the card. Lovely glow too.

What a beautiful card! Wonderful colors and swirls.

Beautifully done! It would make a wonderful cover for a year's book.

This song has powerful words, even to a non-believer, sung in a group setting like the Hum & Strum sing along last week. Credits: -background, border, music, stars: Oscraps Collab Merry & Bright -paint transfer, evergreen leaves, white branch: Oscraps Collab Rustic Christmas...

I finished my gift shopping yesterday (not that much to do) and finally got a swag for the front door. I looked at them a while back but they were outside and all frozen together, but better now. Started a little decorating inside, put up a tree - all of about 8 inches tall. It was given to DH's...

Got a thank you reply from the attorney and no questions, so I hope the report will be everything needed. Last night got a little back into the party here, but still behind. This morning DH was at H&S and I did bills, etc. This afternoon I'm going out for a little shopping and to pick up some...

Well, I finished and sent off my (hopefully) final report before 4:00 this afternoon. If BIL thinks it's OK he'll pass it along to the attorney. Sure hope I'm through with that! I didn't do anything else and got pretty cross-eyed in the process. Tomorrow I need to get back to where I was and get...

:hello: Just took a break to see what's up at the O. Thinking of you all.

Yesterday I thought we were not going back out, but got the call that the new vacuum cleaning was in, so went to get it, but not before BIL called and let me know I have until "before Monday" to get something ready for the attorney for their cousin's estate. I worked on it last night, but it...

Hum & Strum sounded great at the senior center, but the room had to be cleared out for a class so they only had 30 minutes and the folks next door at the pot luck mostly stayed there to eat. Their loss! But when we came out, the ground was already white with more snow coming down. We just came...

Neat story and wonderful colors to the page.

A variety of wishes that would be wonderful if fulfilled. Credits: -background, tree, evergreen twigs: Oscrap Collab Merry & Bright -ornaments: Trimmings by Vicki Stegall -Santa transfer, art stroke: ArtPlay Palette Christmas Nostalgia by Anna Aspnes -background overlay: Joie, 12x12...

Week 48 and the next week isn't even over. That makes 5 weeks in a row done even though I still owe a lot of previous ones.

A week of contrasts and maybe getting into the holiday spirit. Credits: all from Oscraps Collab Merry & Bright fonts: Erie, EwieD, Doodle, Catriel
