Grateful

Dayv got to FL. safely.
I am SO thankful.
He is scheduled to come home today around 1pm.
I am prayerful that he does...

Today is a new day! I've pulled my big girl panties up and moved on! :)

I finally opened my SC kit for this month. I was beginning to wonder if I'd ever
play with it. I've been so busy getting ready for the party that I had to put
it away and decide to play with it later.
But...
On Thursday I got it out and played, practically all day!
And I even played with some BG and liked it! *GASP*!
I got the main kit and a couple of add-on kits as well, I love their kits!





Want to hear a funny?
Although had I not gone back in the kitchen it wouldn't be so funny.
But I put a brownie in the microwave to warm up. I left it in there.
I forgot about it... When I suddenly realized it, there was smoke coming
out of the microwave. The brownie was completely fried. Burning.
And it got smoky in our house right quick. So I opened up the windows in
the kitchen and tried to air it out using a hand towel as well. The alarm
didn't go off, thankfully {because both Kira and Alyssa are afraid of it}
but the brownie was sizzling and smoking.. Figures. I probably shouldn't be
eating the brownie anyway. :(

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get burnt smell out of a
microwave? Great... And we are having company tonight.
Hopefully the smell in the house will be gone by then. Definitely opening
up the windows today!!!

I have a million things to do and not enough time in the day to do them!
Home group comes over tonight.
Saturday night is the scrapping party!
Sunday after church is another function!
Sheesh...
But it's all SO exciting!!!
Everything is ready for the scrapping party!
I made these last minute small gifts for the girls.

My grateful list this week.

1. People whom I do not know in person, have never met but pray for me.
2. Hot tea and cocoa because I love both this time of year.
3. A beautiful neighborhood that we live in.
4. A plan for our future.
5. Being in a different place than we were 2 years ago.
6. Being able to multitask.
7. God's laughter.
8. The new friendships that are forming in my bible study on Monday's.
9. God opening up the door for us to become more involved in our church.
10. A budget we can follow!

I love all your pages! I also was wondering how long D will be home? I would try boiling water with lemon to see if that helps the smell! Well enjoy your busy weekend! It sure sounds fun!

Jen said...

All your pages INSPIRE me! Hoping to get out of this dry spell quick with your help!

Love the Decor! said...

Elizabeth
Just checking on you to make sure you are doing okay and hubby made it home safely. What ever you were going through the other day I pray is better and there is resolution in your heart about it. Have a lovely weekend and remember I am praying

did you get that burnt brownie smell out??? I don't think it can be worse than burnt popcorn...can it?

love the LO's. they are drop dead gorgeous. and awesome work for someone who says their mojo is out gallivanting!!! LOL

BTW...I LOVE that Tea cup. Give it a while though, and memories of your mom will be sweet and make you smile instead of miss her. it's still sooo recent though. You DO have that peace of mind that she is saved and you will see her once again. So you're right in cherishing that! HUGS!
