Getting Old

Seems like lately, every day, something else either hurts or is wrong. I'm getting so disgusted with it. Today it's a pain on my head that feels like a bruise. Didn't hit it or injure it in anyway. So..... being that it's been going on for about 5 days and getting worse... off to the Doctor I go.  I'm thinking it might be caused from upper back and neck pain I've been having for about 2 months. Hope that's all it is. :(
I know it's normal to get aches and pains the older we get, but, seriously, this is getting ridiculous. There's not too many days that I feel good.
Think it's time to really start taking better care of myself.

It's the second day of Spring and it's still only in the 20's. Last year at this time, it was easily in the 80's! We had our concrete all replaced last March and it was absolutely beautiful out. It never even got cold again. Oh, how I wish that were the case this year.  I'm anxiously waiting ......
The only thing I don't like about summer is the wardrobe. I hate summer clothes.... show off too much of me that I don't want showing. LOL!
So much is going on this spring, starting with  my daughters combined baby/wedding shower in 3 weeks. After that comes her wedding and then the best part of all.... the addition of our 4th grandchild! I can't wait.
Well, I'll try to be patient.... It'll all happen sooner or later....
Happy Spring everyone!

A couple more Cards

A couple more cards that I made tonight. Lots of birthdays and anniversaries coming up in the next couple of months. Have to get my supply of cards up!
Let me know what you think?

A new kitchen appliance

I've finally bought a pressure cooker. When we were first married we had received one as a wedding gift. I rarely, if ever, used it. My mother used one all the time... the old time kind that went on the stove and blew up every chance it got! Thats the reason I didn't use mine.. I was terrified of it. Now, 35 years later; I bought a new electric, digital one. I love it!!  Can't believe how delicious the food is that comes out of it. I'm always amazed that it's actually cooked in that short time frame. My favorite recipe is a chicken and rice dish. It's amazing... if you like that home style comfort food. Perfect when it's cold outside and the candles are burning inside. If you haven't ever tried to cook this way; give it a try. It's super fast and delicious. My husband and I were always deciding what to eat at the last minute and that's not conducive to a good healthy meal. With the pressure cooker, you can cook last minute and it's wonderful!  I find we're funning out for fast food a whole lot less than we used to.
My family teases me all the time because I have just about every appliance that's out there on the market. This one, however, is definitely a keeper! They won't laugh when they sample one of the terrific meals that comes out of that bad boy!

some of my cardmaking projects....

Have been trying to use my cricut more in my cardmaking. The cards have been turning out pretty good, don't you think? I was having a bit of a creative block after I cleaned my craft room. Think it was waaaaayyyy to neat. Need a little mess to get my creative juices flowing.

I love making cards!!
