Day 468

The scrapbook sale went well. All but one box sold, but even without that one I netted a bit over $170 dollars. Not bad for stuff I was never using anyway.

The flowers blooming out front aren't too bad, either.

Day 467

Some totally non-related things I learned today (in no particular order):

• The most delicious breakfast in the world - a chorizo burrito at a neighboring town's restaurant - doesn't taste as great as it used to, especially when you've already had a huge glass of kale, etc. juice beforehand.
• Numbing medicine put in your neck hurts.
• Having something removed from your neck in the exact spot where your seat belt hits hurts even more.
• I hate swimsuit shopping.
• I love the sunroof in my car.
• You have to stand your ground with the pharmacist when being overcharged for prescriptions.
• Working full time, trying to finish up charity quilts, and getting ready for a yard sale all at the same time is quite exhausting.
• Naps feel good.
• Hubby is getting comfortable with the camera.

I woke up after my nap in a bit of a panic, worried about not yet having taken a picture for the day. He had it covered. While I was sleeping a grass fire broke out not too far from us. He headed out the back gate and snapped the picture. That house was okay.

Day 466

Even though I've taken a picture every single day for the last 465 days, some days I can't take one. I have to take more.

Patience paid off today. A series of pictures in the miniature roses - one bee, then another one arriving, then both hard at work.

Day 465: Scrapbooking Saturday Sale

Today could have been called either Sell off Scrapbooking Stuff Saturday or Summer Snow Saturday.

All my scrapbooking stuff is now up on ebay, waiting for buyers. I'm embarrassed to say I had a whole cabinet of scrapbooking stuff I never used. It sat there, waiting patiently for me and I never gave it the time of day. So I have to say I'm sorry and wish it luck with its new family. I hope someone else can treasure it in a way I couldn't. (If you're interested in any of it, you can find it here.)

While it technically isn't yet summer, it is summer vacation for hubby. Although you wouldn't know that summer was anywhere close if you happened to look up when the clouds cleared out today. Yup, snow.
