Since I posted last! Lots to catch up on:)

I believe this is the longest I've let the blog go, in like....ever:)

Lets see....in a nutshell....if I can get you all caught up on my life...*giggles*


Early Feb - Injured my hand at work. It was worse than it looked I guess. Modified Duties make me bored, and being short handed at work, also frustrated as well..... It's been let's see....10 1/2 weeks.. and at least I'm having more good days than bad days with it now:) Sometimes I think it would have been better to break the hand, and get a cast, than to bruise it, and then keep re-injuring it with walking the dogs, or picking up a plate, or even driving....it was crazy!!

Valentine's Day - DH got me Sapphire earings!! They are gorgeous, and I love them! He did wrap them in a hard drive box, so they seriously were a surprise! At first I was like, Thanks Honey, another hard drive - exactly what I needed...*giggles* That's the best hard drive ever, if you ask me!!!

March was the same - doing nothing, getting frustrated, etc. One thing this hand taught me - was that I spent too much time on this computer. So does DH. So we worked a few things out this month. Communication is the best relationship advice I can ever give anyone:)

The end of March brought some changes to my life, in the scrappy world. Just before the retreat with Annie's group, that week I believe, I became only a gallery moderator for SNS, and the board moderator for AF. I love both sites dearly, but with my hand and not scrappin for 8 weeks, I was at a cross road. (Best way to describe it) Now I have no deadlines, and less responsibility. At The retreat, it was the first time I could scrap what I wanted to, when I wanted to, in a long time. I usually end up catching up on DT stuff at crops and retreats. It was so liberating! Annie - you seriously rock at retreats girl!

So that brings me into April, DH was gone the last week in March, First of April. It was so quiet in the house...until Max heard an ant think or something:) I swear DH told him to go on guard duty while he was gone:)

I tell ya what was seriously sweet though, when I came home from the retreat, DH & I were both driving on 1-75, in the middle lane, doing 70mph. lol Only I was in Northern MI and he was in KY. lololol When I got home that afternoon, DH left me pretty flowers on the stove. I think he missed me:)

So I survived a week of Max Guard Duty - a whole lot of sleepless nights, NOT because DH was gone - but because he kept protecting me from the imaginary burglers in our house. Barking at 1AM & 3AM every night is not a fun experience. Specially when he's tearing downstairs like a bat outta hell and waking Maggie up:) Not fun, not Fun!! When DH finally made it home, I was like glad your home, Love you, now I'm off to bed:) And I did just that *giggles* I need my beauty sleep!!

Easter came and went, we had a great time at his sister's house. It was a lotta fun. They really get into finding the easter eggs too. Some seriously funny shit happened!!

This week - Mom and I started Missy's Bridal Shower invites. I have seriously worked out my wishblade. I started with two new mats, and I think they are almost done now:) But I've made approx 100 or so. 60 are completely done, and 40 or so to finish up tomorrow.

I think this gets me updated now!! LOL I'll update with some photos, if not this weekend - then this week:)

and if you've made it this far - Thanks for reading:)
