Good Morning MMC !!

lovely morning here, sun shine, not to hot.
enjoying some time at home organizing, cleaning and getting some projects done.
Nephew coming over later to put new battery in the car. ( my daughters car)

In August I will be doing my first ever 30 day art challenge. It is put out by the facebook group "Thriving Christian Artists". We are given a topic every day to do in what ever medium we choose, so mine will all be done in sugar art. Then we post the pictures to share what we created. This will be a great challenge for me to think outside the box and learn to express myself better.

Sounds interesting! I hope you'll share pictures of your creations!!! Have a great day CS!
 
It’s rained everyday since I’ve been home from vacation.there has been so much flooding here. I was surprised when I woke up and saw sunshine, but I think the rain is to return this weekend.
Stay safe & dry!!!

Good morning, MMC! Not much planned for today. We’ve gotta do some shopping and then my niece is coming over around lunch time for a few hours. I work tonight, so I’ll probbakh try and catch a nap this afternoon.

Hope you all have a great day!
Enjoy the time with your niece & have a great day!
 
Merry Friday Eve, Holiday!!
Enjoy the fresh air & gorgeous weather!!
Hope you’ve warmed up by now. It was the same here this morning a few hours ago.
Enjoy the LTD Commodoties catalog!!
I want one of everything in the Autumn Sturbridge catalog I got last week :D
I may have to place an order over the weekend.
Have a great day!! ♥️
So fun!! You'll have to let us know what you end up buying! :) My CIJ presents from LTD Commodities are supposed to be delivered today!! (Nothing like waiting until the last minute...)
-gift-
 
Have a great day, Holiday! I hope I get my LTD catalog soon!

Aww....what a cutie! I am sure her and Lucy will be fine!
I hope they do. Lucy is very jealous & Piper is a scardy cat!! ;)
Have a great day!!
 
I can imagine, It’s hard to keep up in this day & age. We take so many photos with our phones.
Scrapbooking is so neat! I never dipped my fingers into it, but have always admired the results.

Thank you~
My friend & I did scrapbooks together of our cruise. WOW did that take a lot of time. We had her kitchen all set up for scrapbooking & I was there almost every week night - for weeks!! Just time consuming!! But so cool!!! Usually if I do an album now, I do them online...which is still time consuming!!
 
Piper is so adorable!! ♥️
Hope the girls have fun together!
xx
I hope so too!! xx She is a cute dog. Normally when I have Lucy at moms, if Piper is there she curls up around the back of her mama's neck!! ;)
 
Hello all.

Very tired today, for no good reason really, just...tired.

I have been trying to write more on my thesis everyday which is not how I usually work. I prefer to just sit down and write for several hours, but that is more difficult to do on this paper. So, the last few days I have spent 2-4 hours writing. I am not too far from the end, the final draft is due on August 26; however, I am hoping to finish up a week early so I am not overlapping with the start of school.

Football practice has been fun this week, we have practice again tonight. This is just conditioning week so lots of running, exercise and a few small drills. Most of the kids seem to be having fun, but a few are really struggling as you can tell they have spent the summer inside on the couch only exercising their thumbs.

Well, time to get some writing done, everyone have a great day!

Good luck finishing up your paper!!! Have a great day & a good practice tonight!
 
Sounds like a great day! I hope the inspection goes well!! Enjoy!!!

I hope everything went ok with the inspection Minta.

Thanks, Inspection went well. Everything passed. Now just have to wait for the electric company to come out and replace the meter and then we can activate the panels.
 
Good afternoon ... another muggy, humid day here with increased temps today and tomorrow ... its just so nasty feeling out and with an seemingly never ending trail of scattered rain/storms its too unstable to even go to the lake to enjoy the water. On the bright side, I was in walmart last night and the lawn and garden area is getting pretty bare ... not much longer before we see those boxes with the wonderful Halloween and Christmas logos on them :)

I have not been in our local Walmart yet, but I know it will not be long for the Halloween stuff to be out. My favorite is when Menard's starts getting their Halloween stuff out. That usually happens towards the end of August. Their Christmas stuff is always out around the first of October.
 
The big family reunion has come and gone. The highlight of the event was a visit to the train museum in Union, IL. It was a stop for the "Day with Thomas the Train" tour. Yes, we rode a museum train with Thomas as the engine. Whenever Thomas pulled back into the station, all of the kids/families turned and migrated in his direction.
The grandvarmints had a terrific time. They spotted a blow - up Thomas on the property, while we waited to drive onto the site, and blew their parents ears out with their shouts and squeals.
