My Countdown To 40

I'll be forty in 14 months and have been spending quite a bit of time thinking about how I want to celebrate and what being 40 will mean to me.  Also, what do I want to accomplish before my fortieth birthday?  The should dos, the want to dos...  The what do I want to do with the rest of my life?

What do I still want to learn, to read about, to create?  How do I want to shape my life?  How do I want to spend my time?  What is most important to me?

3/365:Simon's photo shoot

Spent the day doing laundry, scrapping and catching up on the movies on the DVR.

Day 2 - 365 a photo a day challenge - Pain

 

Today is all about the pain.  Fibro pain everywhere.  Even the Advil didn't help.  I tossed and turned all night last night and I am sure that contributed to the pain.  

New Calendars for a New Year

A Sunday of Matinees

Mom and I took in two matinees today.

We saw Mama Mia for the second time.  And it is still wonderful.

We also took in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 and while it was good it can't touch Mama Mia.

Pages from last week's crop

Mom & I went to the crop at LaRoche last weekend and I created 8 pages in about 8 hours!  A record for me.  Here they are in the order of creation.
