Good afternoon - I guess I have been missing in action - actually I have been too lazy to post - I have been making some cards but have not wanted to be on the computer - I must be working too hard at work.

I indulged in some retail therapy yesterday - made a round trip - went to Brookfield to Creative Pals - home store for Whipper Snapper Stamps - did manage to drop some money there - got some new stamps (come back tomorrow to see my new penguin), some new copics and some new paper and ribbon. Next stop Polka Dots in Mukwonago - dropped another boat load of money - but I guess that is good - I am stimulating the economy - they had the new Stampendous and Penny Black stamps - I got the Penny Black penguin stamp I have been looking for - I figure the gas money was less than shipping fees. But I feel so much better.

Today's cards - are actually using a very old pad of Basic Grey paper - I think I only have a couple sheets left of it - this stamp always makes me smile - so I know it will make many people smile because they are cards I made for Operation Write Home. The challenge (midweek throw down was to make a masculine card). I do believe this qualifies. I hope they put a smile on your face.

My dinner is made - yeah - will need to do laundry - watch the Sunday night football game - and I need to rake the leaves into the street. The kids and I got them to the curb on Friday after much enjoyment by the kids with the leaf blower. Girls and boys enjoy a good powerful tool. Lots of smiles by all of them and by me also. It is something they look forward to every year.

Well I must go - keep moving - lots to do and I would like to make some more cards. Everyone have a wonderful day.
