  • Because I just dropped some of my extensive stash of scrapbooking goodies off at Paula’s. She is going to be having a sale THIS Saturday only from 9-3 at her house. I’m glad I’m not going because I’d probably end up coming home with as much stuff as I dropped off! Considering my latest layout didn’t use a single piece of patterned paper, that could be a problem:

    We are going to be doing tons of projects around the yard/house this weekend. I hope we get a little sun, or at least not too much cold rainy weather!

  • I’ve been working on some swap fun…
    Progress-1
    A little easier to paint with out my helper, though I think not quite as fun. Just wanted to put up a little reminder, also Sarah sent out an email. Monday is the last day to send things out!
    Thanks for all your suggestions on cleaning out the washer, I’m still working on it (by working on it I mean letting it air out for a day 🙂

  • I tried to set Tuesday up to be my helper today while making some embellishments (this has been posted on my sidebar for a while, finally trying it out). She wanted to do her own thing:

    Which ended like this:

    hehehe I love toddlers.
    In line with getting dirty… Bj decided to “help” me today by doing a load of laundry (me=laundry, him=dishes). He washed some car-washing towels with some of Tuesday’s clothes and our cloth napkins. They all have a petroleum like smell to them. Plus he used some weird soap (yes, I should have just tossed it). So I ran Charlies through (2 scoops in our front loader) with a few clean rags. I still have a strong smell in the machine, and I haven’t tackled the clothes/napkins yet. Right now I’m running it just with vinegar and the rags. Any other ideas? I want to get the machine really cleaned out before I try to get the smell out of the clothes, and before I do a new load of diapers (since diaper laundry has to be as residue free as possible).
