teacher appreciation – November

These got put together pretty quickly. T was needing something for his “team of 25” at work. These were pretty easy to put together in SCAL — I did however forget how heavy all those apples would be — and that T would need to pack them about 1/2 mile into his office from the gate — We did find a way to pack them in hopes that he wouldn’t bruise them too much. That duffle bag sure came in handy.

Background paper from an Autumn Collection in my digital files, I think. I used Fairy Sketch and Ink Free from my Fonts library on the PC. The tag is printed on a white base and I was able to 12 to a page and still have room for the registration marks to cut using the Print 2 Cut option in the SCAL software. Tags were cut using the Skycut C24.

Hoping you’re finding some creative time doing something you love! Enjoy! Keep nurturing your soul in a creative way.

3 Positives:
answered prayers
7 of 12 pieces of current project completed
a lovely “let’s catch up” call with a creative friend I haven’t seen or talked to (my bad) in nearly 10 years

My Journey Notes:
Short term memory was definitely in “short” supply yesterday. UGH! Not sure how to tackle this one – but the first thoughts are not to start a project and not stay in the same room to see it through. I have a feeling the hard boiled eggs are overcooked and likely a very thick black ring around the yolk. I’ll find out this morning and then we’ll likely have to do another batch. There were a few other things as well… not a very good day overall. Hoping today will be a better day all around. Fewer things on the general to-do list and maybe some time in the studio working on the 8th piece and tackling a couple of cards before having to get deep into making December’s group of b-day, anniversary and ministering cards.

an every day favorite

My Journey Notes:
Switching pharmacies again. Sadly, the two prescriptions that were called in early last week were not filled by the date promised. We even gave them two extra business days to get them done as they’re now closed on the weekends. They told A and T the 2 scripts weren’t in the system – um, yeah, they were and both prescriptions had been filled at the store previously and a new scrip for both are on file. I’m definitely not happy and now have to deal with completing the forms to get things sorted out and make sure everything is transferred over correctly to the new pharmacy today as I do need both of the prescriptions refilled ASAP. Sadly, they didn’t seem too concerned… yesterday was the third strike for that pharmacy. It’s a good thing I had an extra week of meds for both prescriptions, so I haven’t run out… yet.
