thanks for all the Hi's and How do you do's.
yall are the BESTest people eh! most kind peeps on the planet.

secondly:
thanks for being patient while my life spins out of control.(once again)

so what's going on in the duncan house?
well i haven't touched my scrapbooking supplies since December, however my sewing machine and I got reaquainted this weekend to catchup on my Mystery Quilt Blocks! i won't even admit how long it's been and how far behind I was....
our laundry is beyond breeding. it's taken over the laundry room and the hallway now.
Staying up til 1am decorating barbie birthday cakes has made me realize that the stupid chick has a perfect body, great clothes she can now each cause they are made of icing and she's my 5yr olds favourite today not me! :(

i have a million and a half emails to answer.
the Secret Sister quilt along is staring at me and it's making me nervous.
and i'm up against a major quilty deadline with my competition quilt.

it's times like these when i wished there were 3 of me.
the good news is, one of my Peeps LC is back in town, let the fun begin.
{hey ma: maybe you'll come help me with laundry, please?!?!}kidding!

i know my blog has been quiet.
please just know i am thinking about yall.
{and all the stuff that i should be getting done.}

for now i will continue to live on yogurt and Starbucks coffee to get me through the days.


miss everyone.
Weighed in last night....-5lbs...yeah!

Prep for Retreat

Well today is Sunday and I have a retreat on Friday, 3 days with some great scrapbookers and quilters. I can't wait, it's the best time for me, getting everything ready to ensure everyone has a great time.

Seeing all the creativity that happens at retreat is mind blowing...I honestly think I get more inspired at retreat than any other place.

Well, off to pack and prep! Have a great week everyone.

Saturday Morning and the Weekends Here

What is your weekends like? If you're a mom, they could be full of transportation with kids from one event to another....if you don't have kids at home, it could be full of volunteer activities, or for either it could be tidying the house, laundry, planning meals for next week or and I hope scrapbooking or quilting for at least a few hours....

My weekend started at 7:30am, up and breakfast then taking the 4year old to gymnastics, home to throw in a couple loads of laundry, vacuum and tidy the main floor. prep camera for the 1:45pm hockey game for 13year old and help the 14yr old with homework...geesh and it's on 11:30am.....my plan is to be in my craft room by 6pm tonight, locking the door and staying up late.....
