Nothing exciting here today. It got very cold overnight but warmer now and the sun shone brightly for a while. The computer store has everything computer related, not just computers. It was interesting to see it very busy on a Tuesday afternoon. I had a coupon for a free 32GB flash drive and...

Thank you Kerstin! I'm so surprised and delighted. Guess it was a good decision to stop work on that weekly page when it wasn't coming out as I wanted and later to do a better job.

At last, I've done week 1. I also put it in the 52 Inspirations challenge.

The change is the weather was sudden and everthing froze. Also I've changed my focus to just doing a weekly page with whatever photos I may have taken and not one for each day. Credits: -background: ArtPlay Palette Star by Anna Aspnes -frame: Winter Walk by emeto Designs -gesso with leaves...

Wow, this is beautiful. I love the colors and the tracery of glitter. Wonderful send off to the old year.

Why is the weather the thing for us these days? For me it just seems to effect everything else. Our temps are dropping and it could be single digits tonight. DH will probably cancel his bird survey for the early morning because of the cold. But maybe this afternoon we'll go out for more bird...

This spread is so beautiful! And how important to have this kind of record of a phase in your life. Everything is laid out so well, the blending great. Just super.

Lightly snowing here but not so cold, maybe 26*. No special plans today for the MLK holiday but do need to do regular Monday stuff like bills. We enjoyed the weekend football, especially the Vikings big ending, and working on the trivia puzzle. I got movies at the library, they are just a...

We may have cold and snow, but the sun is shining and that makes so much difference. Going to the library soon and hope to find more movies to bring home. We actually watched four I brought home two weeks ago. Gwen, congrats on doing such a daunting task as deleting. I'm afraid I'm never...

Well, the weather wasn't perhaps quite as bad as predicted and I probably could have gone this morning OK, but it wasn't really nice and this way I didn't have to worry last night and DH was also relieved as he would have fretted a lot. Birds are very active at the feeder and a Cooper's Hawk was...

Good evening, all. Today just seemed to be one thing after another of contacts. One was to cancel the meeting tomorrow at which I was to speak. The weather has turned really nasty and lots of things are closing for tonight and the morning. The meeting is at a library and they weren't sure if...

The senior center genealogy group is always great . After that we had a talk with BIL who had called about more help with his problem getting his printer to talk to his computer. But after he left a message, he found a simple solution. We had a similar problem with one printer and when we...

I've got to go to the genealogy group at the senior center so no time to chat. Sorry.

Still above freezing here, but still snow on the ground and gray skies. Makes me feel very lazy. I'm giving a talk on Saturday and it needs lots of updating from its last time, so should be doing that. Chris, if we can keep each other encouraged and supported in things like yoga we're doing...

It's above freezing, but snowed a little I guess making roads treacherous so all the schools closed. We don't really understand. Sad for DH as the senior center closes when schools do so he missed the Monday Hum & Strum, especially bad as the last two Mondays were holidays and so is next week...

Friend called while I was still reading the Sunday paper so spent a long time on the phone. She is another genealogist and needed help sorting out some new records she just got. Very pleased that it is warmer today, but I'm still sitting under an afghan with DH watching football. Chris, boy...

I'm still down at the historical society to do some research, but the meeting was good and the reception of the book was super. One friend wants to show it (I can send him a pdf of it) to a 7th grader he is assisting in a somewhat similar project. The car said it was 9* driving down and though...

The shapes, the crow, the combinations of things, all are interacting so well. And then it is beautiful too. Love it!

The snow was unexpected this day, coated everything and looked quite lovely. Credits: -background: Color Crush {Two} Messy by Joyful Heart Designs -mask: 52 Inspirations {2016} no. 22 by Vicki Stegall -frame: Quotations, artsy bits & pieces by NBK Design -bird, twig, overlay: ArtPlay...

I love this! Wonderful colors, such nice framing!
