QUOTE OF THE DAY – “When the sun is shining I can do anything; no mountain is too high, no trouble too difficult to overcome.” — Wilma Rudolph
I hope that the sun shines in your windows today and that as you feel the warmth of it on your skin, today’s quote will remind you… you can do anything! Go tackle that project or that task that you have put off because fear has stopped you. It’s going to be a GREAT day!
Today my family and I are headed out of town for Thanksgiving. I have never seen a family of 4 more in need of a vacation than this one. Christina has been SO sick with an upper respiratory infection causing her to cough so hard she actually bruised a rib. Poor thing, she is just miserable so the rest will do her good. Ginny had a major life change this past week when she decided to change her major in college from Music Education to Special Education with a minor in music. I have no doubt this was the right decision for her so she can pursue her goal of teaching music to students with special needs. Mr. Awesome has been working on a HUGE project at work that he just finished up so I know he is in need of a break. Me? Well, I stamp for a living. My life is pretty swell but I will never turn down a week with my family.
Thank you for sharing part of your day with me. I can’t tell you what an honor it is to have you join me in my stamping journey. I love you all so very much! Have a great day my friends!

Thank you for this video, Connie. I have actually been making my own shimmer mist for years and, as someone who loves sparkle, I use it often. Champagne is my go-to color just because it seems to be more noticeable than the white.
Have a lovely Thanksgiving!Reply
