Nice sunny day and the deer was in the yard behind us after DH came home from Hum & Strum. It rested a while, got up and grazed moving out of sight. Don't know if it visited our bird bath, but probably earlier while I was off doing bills. Saturday we got up early and went across town to be...

It hasn't rained yet but DH still glad he canceled the survey as the morning was very windy (can't really survey by sound if you can't hear over the wind). It is gray and feels like rain. Will sure hope you don't get rain tomorrow, Chris. As to M's jacket, while it is really a weird message, do...

I'm actually caught up now, at least for a couple of days.

The deer was a surprise with the house now occupied, but it lives in a populated area and doesn't seem to care. It was a very pleasant week. Credits: -background papers (blended), dots, leaves, line, design, note, flower: Inspire, Design by Tina -mask: 52 Inspirations {2018} no. 14 by Vicki...

Back tonight remembering to wish everyone well on this midsummer night.

Sunny here for now with pleasant temperatures which should make for a nice day. Rain is coming though and DH may not be able to do his bird survey tomorrow morning. Chris, glad you found an activity in which to express your outrage. It is impossible to read anything about our country's...

Nothing special today but yesterday was so nice for DH's birthday. Felis, that photo is wonderful and how exciting to find all the baby hedgehogs. I don't know about them, but birds do find their young when people think they've been abandoned. Nice your whole family and some pets could enjoy...

Skimmers always seem so unbelievable and you've got a great page for them.

Wonderful colors to float on. It just really stands out.

Kerstin, thanks so much for this on my birthday card LO. I'm so pleased and so is my DH.

I'm back now that the temps are again humane (upper 70s). Yesterday was again a record high 94 and Sunday "only" 92. Meeting Saturday was very nice and nice having DH along. Sunday night when we went out to dinner, found the restaurant closed with their power off. Went across the street (power...

Lovely sunny day and the house feels full of light. DH is home from his bird survey which was nice. We'll have to be up early again tomorrow so hope he takes a nap (and maybe me too.) For the meeting tomorrow we're starting with a recorded webinar on DNA procedures. Next we have user groups and...

These lines ending with daffodils just reminded me of this daffodil hill and what a special flower they are as harbingers of spring. Credits: -background: 52 Inspirations {2018} no. 8 by Vicki Stegall -mask: 12 X 12 Page FotoBlendz No. 9 by Anna Aspnes -frame, dots: Happy Little Moments by...

Beautiful sunny day here with a nice breeze. I'd like to scrap a page, but should be concentrating on getting ready for my sessions at the gen. meeting Saturday. Also errands to run. Well, we'll see. Yesterday's gen. group was fun. Two regulars couldn't come but we had two new people that will...

And now I'm caught up with week 23. Now to try to keep up.

It was a very different and interesting week but outside nearly got missed. Credits: all Anna Aspnes -background: ArtPlay Palette Home -frames, brushes, overlay, transfer: ArtPlay Palette Canyon -brush, tape, brad: ArtPlay Palette Generations fonts: Segoe Script, Erie, Harrington, Catriel

Moving along, here is my week 22. One of the days was just the most fun.
