March was a total whirlwind, we spent many days visiting Evelyn at the nursing home, then I caught the dreaded flu that has been going around so bad this year, had that crud for over three weeks and I hope to say that I never get that crap again!!!
March 20th was Daisy's birthday, she is a big 3 years old now. Marci had the day off work so I went to visit with her and Punkin and we went shopping together and lunch at Ruby Tuesday......yum!!! Had to stop in Pet Smart and pick up some gifts for the birthday girl. I really enjoyed the day and the time I got to spend with my girls : ) Wish we could do that more often, I sure miss them being just around the corner from me and getting to see them all of the time, more than anything I miss all the girl talk and time I got to spend with Sis. I hate this new city we moved to, it sucks! Closer to everything and away from my family.
I started taking some online Paint Shop Pro lessons and am enjoying them, it helps take up some of my time, gives me something to do and I am also learning a LOT more about this awesome program. I love working with graphics, pixels and doing digital scrapping.
On Marci 31, Evelyn passed away, she is at rest now. The next few days were busy spending time with the family and making all of the preperations for the funeral. The service and funeral were very nice.
April 17 was my baby girl's birthday!!!!! Yeah, Happy Birthday Marci : ) She had the day off from work so we went shopping at the mall together and had lunch, it was a great day and I enjoyed every minute we got to spend together. I wanted to give her something special that you couldn't just go out and buy, so I made her a scrapbook for her that was All About Her!!! I think she loved it and I'm glad I chose that to give her. It took me two weeks to get it together, once I started going through all of my photo albums looking for pictures of her by herself, I got lost in the albums and spent hours looking through them......LOL It also brought back lots of wonderful memories of times throughout her life and the joy and laughter she has brought into my life.
LOVE YOU KATE!!!!
Spring is finally here and I'm wanting to get this yard landscaped and start a small flower garden, right now the yard is totally naked. I've got my flower bulbs started in pots on the deck and they are almost ready to plant out in the yard now. I don't want to spend a lot of money putting things here, just enough to make it feel like home here and give me something to do outside, no pool this year so it will be pretty boring, not much to do and no one to do it with. Did I mention that I hate this place : (
Well, I think this pretty much catches me up for the past two months, going to spend today packing up my winter clothes and see what I can still get into of my summer ones...LMAO How in the hell do you put on so many inches during the winter time??? LOL I need to get my fat ass on my Gazelle so I'm ready for the beach this year, Oh Yeah, I'm so looking forward to vacation time!!!!!!!!! Pack up the margarita's and let's hit the road!!!
Here's one of the birthday pages I did for my baby girl's album....
Till next time.....
