Stitch In Time

Week in the Life (Saturday)

I hope I have enough photos from earlier in the week to complete this project.  I feel like the last couple of days I've done a poor job of taking pictures.

We all slept in today and once I finally get up I start cleaning kitchens and bathrooms.  I took one picture the whole time.

I think my goal in life is to get her to stop sleeping on computer keyboards.  She likes them because they are warm but she's already broken my letter "L".

I can't believe I'm sharing a picture of my refrigerator but there it is.

My son asks me if he can make me a drink and then he brings me one with an umbrella and straw, plus a lemonade for himself.  I have no idea who this child is and what he's done with my son.

He did a cute job with the drinks though.

I clean off and on throughout the day.  It's nice out but I never make it outside.

My husband and son are watching Alien.

When it's over they switch it to a movie I like better.

For the first time ever my husband allows Boomer up on the couch, and he doesn't quite know what to think about that.

We make dinner (tortilla soup) and get the kitchen cleaned up (mostly).  There's still one more load of dishes that needs to go in the dishwasher that's in the sink.

The neighbors are dropping by so we get out margarita fixings.

We have an awesome time catching up and hanging out.

Our neighbor teaches our son to play slap hand.  Ouch!  Now everyone's gone home and my husband and son are watching Alien 2, so I'm headed for bed.  I have book club in the morning!

Week In the Life (Friday)

I decided to get some of my words and stories down today for my Week-in-the-Life.  I'm having trouble getting my phone pictures downloaded so I feel like this is a little incomplete, but wanted to get the words down anyway.

I get to sleep in for the first time all summer today and I over-do it. 

After my much needed coffee I start to go through mail and paperwork.  It's a never-ending task.

My son tries to earn some money for an X-box game.  I never turn down help with the laundry.

It's hot and muggy so we pick up drinks on the way home.  Then we spend the afternoon waiting for the cable man.  I would have taken a picture of him but I was too embarrassed.  It takes 2 hours for him to hook up the cable, so the day is kind of a bust.

Jingle finds her sunspot and she spends the rest of the day there.

My daughter is playing around with her hair, I'm not sure what this style would be called.

Once my husband gets home we start dinner.  He never comes home at the same time so I won't start dinner until I know he's close.  On this day he's doing the cooking anyways.

My daughter gets this apron from Breaking Bad in her loot crate.  We make my husband wear it while he cooks.  Our neighbor seems a little taken aback by it when she stops by to discuss the fence between our yards.

The sky turns pink right before sunset.  This picture doesn't do it justice.

My husband and I stay up until one in the morning watching movies (including SALT).  I'm working on getting better people pictures today.  Only a couple days to go.

Traveler's Notebook

I'm working on some fun stuff with my traveler's notebook right now and I'm taking it everywhere with me. 

I'm also loving using black paper with white ink.  I've bene using white Stazon ink which seems to work pretty well.

My notebook even got a carousel ride and taken out to lunch.

I don't know where it will turn up next...  Have a great day!

Summer Vibes Sn@p!

I'm over on the Simple Stories blog today with some easy ways to add stickers directly on to your photos.  I can't believe there's just a couple weeks left of summer... it feels like school was just getting out.  We've been busy with family visiting, trips to the beach and just hanging out.  I hope you are enjoying your summer!
