Well this morning started a little earlier then I wanted to, 3 am to be exactly. Thank goodness I'm going to the allergy specialist tomorrow to figure out why I'm getting these horrible hives along with swollen, burning, itching hands. So rather then laying in bed with unbearable hands I decided to get up and be productive. I had cleaned out the desk files and started to organize my 'drool' book by sections (craft ideas, wall hangings, house plans, bedroom ideas, etc)before Chris even got out of bed. That is a first!!
I then decided to work on a sewing drawer that I bought for $5 this summer at a flea market. It was pretty rough looking. A little paint and distressing and it is going to look great in my bathroom holding odds and ins. 
Finally, I conquered the Cricut. I got it as an early Christmas present the day after Thanksgiving and got around to opening before going back to school. However, I couldn't figure out how to get it to load the paper (yes, I hit load paper). So Saturday I asked the Scrapbook chic at Craft Warehouse what I was doing wrong. She said you have to help the machine load the mat by putting a little pressure on it, sure enough it worked great. Here is my first card made by the Cricut! A little thank you to mom and dad.
Excited that I have gotten a few projects completed today. Didn't get to the Valentine's Day cards but hope to sometime this week. I know what layout I will be doing so hope that it will go fast. This will be a busy week even though it is a short week, I have meetings on three of the four nights. Need to enjoy the peace tonight.
