I love this post Helen!!!! So fun to know what's going on in each others lives :)

Bernadine said...

Definitely going to use this for a blog post this coming week. :)

I also don't feel in control but one day at a time as worrying about the future or even yesterday does not change them. :)

Michelle said...

This is a fun post and fun to see what is going on. Bernadine is right and although I know I shouldn't, I do end up worrying about things I shouldn't.

Right now, a minor warm up. Made it into the teens on the positive side! Lately, our highs have been in the single digits (Fahrenheit). Windchills about -30 even on some days, but mostly nights, so longing for spring.
I am back to work at the tax office and spent the day planning this next weeks meals for them. Shop tomorrow, cook the rest of the week and drop off and work in the office on Saturdays. My life until the end of April.
Lots of home projects being planned. More out of necessity as we have some serious issues with ice on the inside of our windows when it is really cold. Furnace not running properly. Got to love a crappy builder. Our own fault as we should of researched them. Greg fell in love with the model home and there was no convincing him. So now we pay to fix some serious screw ups.

I hope your new business venture & 2013 is an in-control year that goes your way, Helen.

Loved this little peek into your life. We are about to start a new chapter in our lives too...so I'm also hoping it goes our way & 2013 is good :)

Hi Helen, really enjoyed reading this post. And yes, I am swooning over the new Glitz products too!

Planning - a short trip to the city to meet a new scrappy friend.

Eating - low fat, low carbs - yes it's diet time again

Discovering - similar to you, we aren't so different after all

Looking at - my husband brewing his beer in the kitchen

Wearing - 3/4 jeans and a white t-shirt, red thongs on my feet!

Cooking - steak and veggies for dinner

Wondering - about this crazy weather

Trying Out - some new chipboard!

Sandie said...

Yes, very scrumptious products coming out everywhere, love Glitz though.

Planning: Taking photographs of my work area, doing a clean up (I always seem to mess it up so quickly).

Eating: Just ate lunch with Jesse, salad and crumbed chicken with an apricot sauce.

Discovering: New doorways, and exploring them, even if reluctantly.

Looking At: Besides Laptop screen, toy story the movie, for the 100th time :-)

Wearing: My PJ's - dare I say it is 1.47pm LOL LOL

Cooking - something easy for dinner tonight, as cooked a large lunch.

Wondering: Just how bad the damage is going to be with the weird weather experienced in Australia at the moment. I feel for those concerned, and worry for family and friends.

Trying Out: Mixed Media a lot more.
