Stampin' Up Fun

Went to my sister-in-law's Stampin' Up open house this afternoon. Sandy is a SU demonstrator extraordinaire! She is WAY "craftier" than I am! Her cards and scrapbook pages are beautiful. Anyway, I've been in her Stampin' clubs for several years, but sat out this past year (they usually run September through June). Today she was selling retired stamp sets - some new, some used. We also got to make a card:If you signed up for one of her clubs (one you agree to spend $15/mo. for 10 months - one you agree to spend $30 every other month for 5 months) you got their new catalog ($9.95 value) for free! (Can you tell I've already "post-it noted" some pages?) I signed up for the $30 every other month club again (me bad girl!). One perk of the club is that one of the months you are the hostess and get a hostess set plus $15 worth of product! She has classes at her house (in Benton) throughout the year, AND a hostess appreciation party at the end of the year. It's a great way to pick up stamping and scrapbooking supplies. Anyway, this is a plug for Sandy and her clubs! Let me know if you are interested in joining. Her card classes throughout the year cost $7.50 - you get to make 4 season/month appropriate cards. I have some coupons for $2.50 off a class if you'd like to try it. You don't have to belong to a club to go to her classes.

And my niece Michelle made some great chocolate chip cookies for the open house! Thanks Michelle, I didn't need them, but they were yummy!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore
