Quickly, Hi, all! :hello: We have to leave in a few for an appointment a 45 minute drive away. Sounds like Chris, eh? Speaking of Chris, sigh, cars can be the pits. Expensive meds more so maybe? Trudy, can't believe your med expense story. What is wrong with the world of pharma? Nancy, saw...

Recent photos of Caspian Terns with Ring-billed Gulls seemed like a nice feature with some of Maya's birds. Credits: all by Maya de Groot -template: Express Your Creativity Challenge: Artchies -background, other papers, birds, eggs, nest, paint: Brocante -paints, papers, white flower: Aero...

Felis, congratulations on that good week, even the lottery ticket! Here's mine.

Sorry I never made here until now. At least I finished my weekly LO and am working on Maya's cute artchie template. Got up, washed hair, read paper, got ready then off to gen. group board meeting, then home and catching up - still not done - with group stuff. Chris, NO, why can't those cars...

We're briefly warm here today which is nice. Not much happening though. Chris, you all will have an interesting time with another dog. Hope it happens and goes well. Sounds like lots of photo opps. Did you get any of the puppy? Enjoy the day in the garden! Nancy, lots of sports today and...

I love the red of cardinal flowers and the surprise of finding them this day was accented with their reflection in the river. Credits: -background, frame, flower: Oscraps Collab Falling For You -word art: Oscraps Collab Sizzle -brush: Countryside No. 2 by Anna Aspnes -mask: my own creation...

It's beautiful! Wonderful how you took the bandanna colors/patterns and made that the page design. Really nice how you jazzed up the template. And the doggies look so cute.

If anything, colder today! Slightly rainy, just the tiniest edge of Harvey passing by. Got good word today about nephew who lives in suburban Houston. We knew he and his family weren't in Texas, but learned their house never quite got flooded. Now the trick is trying to get a flight back from...

I'm being a real wimp feeling like it's so cold. Out in the sun is pretty nice though. There's an air show this weekend and they practice today. Just now hearing one of the jets. They come almost over the house. Love to see them! Otherwise, nothing special planned. DH restrings his guitar in...

Back to clouds today but yesterday was nice and even pretty warm. End of August? How can that be? Wish summer could go on and on... Chris, not sure I can still remember what it was like first day of college classes. Hope Cait gets into it quickly. Hope your day improves from dentist and lab...

Happy to see sun today and need to get outside. Chris hope you do well with your busy day and have a good ice cream treat with BFFATS. And no buttons!! Trudy, I think you must be right about the US having different laws on inheritance. At last, something more friendly here maybe. Hope you...

Wow! That impressive bridge photo makes this such a striking page. Super word art and like including the map.

Felis, wonderful new direction and reclaiming those plants. Lovely page too. Here's my week 34.

Nothing planned today, maybe grocery shopping, always genealogy stuff. We'll see. Chris, the irony lady? I think your mom's comment about sums it up. Too bad about the pool, but the bakery does sound nice. How cool what Christopher named his wolf. For the eclectic LO will you have to use the...

The colors and feeling of "Migration" by Ann06 is still so exciting.
