Today is the very last day of school. Only a few more hours and the last of the finals before it's all over for the school year. Not only that, hubby is coming home for the weekend. It's going to be a good weekend. I am ready for a coffee break. A long 10 week coffee break... called Summer. No tests, no projects, no nagging. I would say no homework, but I've already got the list of books they'll need to read over the Summer before school … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday – And That’s a Wrap!

Got Caffeine?
If not, I know where you can get some! Coffee is my friend... my best friend. Coffee is my life. Okay, not really. But no day goes by without a cup of that hot, rich deliciousness. Those of you that drink coffee know exactly what I'm talking about. The only thing getting you out of bed every morning is knowing that coffee is in your very near future. We used to have a programmable coffee maker so I would wake up to the smell of fresh brewed … [Read more...] about Got Caffeine?
Send Coffee, We’re Going To Need It
It's the last week of school and here we are crawling to the finish line. I think we can make it another five days. Although it is Finals week, so that still remains to be determined. I have never seen two kids do so much math figuring out what the rock bottom score they can get on the final to keep their A in the class. If only they realized that if they spent the same amount of time studying, the A will be no problem. Send Coffee. We're … [Read more...] about Send Coffee, We’re Going To Need It

Ribbon of Courage Make & Take
This past weekend, I worked the Just Crop Retreat again. It's so much fun seeing crafty friends at these retreats. Although sometimes it is a challenge to show them something they haven't seen before. Thank goodness Stampin Up is always coming out with something new. One of my Make & Takes used the brand new stamp set, Ribbon of Courage. The stamp set includes two different choices of Ribbon: one is a solid ribbon and the second is … [Read more...] about Ribbon of Courage Make & Take
(Belated) Happy Fri-YAY!
**Oops! Sorry this post is a little late. It was supposed to appear on Friday. I’m so happy it’s finally Friday. We are down to the last couple weeks of school and I am counting down the remaining activities. The school year is like a marathon. If you can make it through the first 90%, you can make it to the end. But it’s that last 10% that you seriously feel like you’ve hit the wall and just cannot do one more banquet, team meeting, … [Read more...] about (Belated) Happy Fri-YAY!
Change is…
painful. hard. a new door opening. a learning experience. endless possibilities. Two weeks ago I mentioned that we were having a major life change here at our house but I didn't really clue you in on what was happening. In the span of about 12 days, my husband accepted a promotion and moved to another State. We made the difficult decision for me to stay here with the kids for a multitude of reasons I … [Read more...] about Change is…
