first
let me
say
thank you
to my dear friend Judi
who sent me this awesome votive holder
it also has an aromatic oil defuser
thats it
on the
top
it inspired me
to get my tush
in gear
the holiday card
it is printed
the envelopes addressed
stamped
ready to go
yea me!
while printing
a
boring
repetitive
process
I mind surfed
remembered
that several years ago
I 'documented' the epic card making process
it went like this
print the card
stuff the envelopes
those
are not
this year's cards
the air blast can
is no longer there
and
the printer
now
well
my
printer
refused
to print monochrome
it had a mind of its own
and
was printing
a sort of sepia
so
I commandeered Toonman's printer
what
you didnt know
we're a two printer family
anyway
that
and
an amazing 90 minute massage
were how
I spent my Saturday
et tu?
the massage sounds nice...
ReplyDeletebut no stopping here..
in final prep mode for the
road trip...MONDAY..... at last !
Wow, a 90 minute massage. I could do that.
ReplyDeleteMy Saturday was devoted to my son. And that's fine.
Moi? I spent my Saturday finishing my Christmas shopping, returning a few items I knew I should have tried on before purchasing & getting pictures together to download to the Walgreens holiday photo site. I'll let them do the printing this year. xo
ReplyDeleteJust running around doing holiday stuff Daryl...always a very busy time of year. Tonight, I'm looking around trying to figure out just what I should do first!! I decided to go on Amazon and finish up a few last minute purchases...they have had some AWESOME deals!! Best part is that two day free ship thing!! I just adore that votive holder that your friend got you. It's beautiful!! Happy Sunday!

beautiful votive holder! The massage sounds yummy hope it took away all the stresses of the week...
ReplyDeleteMe - I stayed home and worked on a few Christmas gifts. Should be done in a week or so - nothing like waiting till the last minute!
Have a nice Sunday!
It's always good to accomplish your goals, isn't it? Your massage sounds divine. I baked cookies, then put icing on them. Wrapped most of the gifts, and baked a casserole for dinner. Then I watched White Christmas. Again. I think I've had my fill of White Christmas for the next 10 years.
ReplyDeleteAhh! I'm having massage envy Daryl.. But I have one to look forward to, Aimee and I are giving each other a spa day for Chrissy, so we can go together..Saturday was spent painting and gardening...both 'back breaking'!!
ReplyDeleteI cried most of the day. I expect to do more today.
ReplyDeleteWe are a two printer family as well. I like color and he prefers black and white. Not sure if I am doing cards this year.... it's just SUCH a lot of work. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteWe had a very busy Saturday and it included nothing to do with Christmas. I desperately need to start massages again so I'm trying to track down the lady I went to a few years ago. She was great and so many are just barely adequate. Yesterday we ran errands, did laundry, I cooked, and so many other things....this morning it is a little rainy and that gives us permission to take it easy. Holiday cards? Nope, it's not going to happen.
ReplyDeleteOhhh, a massage. after doing the card thing you deserved it!
ReplyDeleteDaryl, all those greeting shooting out into the world! How exciting! And don't you love getting cards! I'm sorry it's seems to be going by the way side.
ReplyDeleteOh, a massage sounds so good right about now.
ReplyDeleteI still have to finish Christmas cards, but things are getting done little by little, and I may actually be done a bit early this year!
That votive holder is just beautiful. What a treasure.
ReplyDeleteyou are an artist, Dar. That votive touched something in my - it would be a great card! Do I have your address? gotta look [ or just send it along :)
ReplyDeleteAloha from Honolulu, my Cousin

Beautiful votive gift....Congrats for completing your cards!
ReplyDeleteI walked almost 8 miles all around Brooklyn! Good for you for getting the cards done.
ReplyDeleteThat votive is beautiful indeed. You are a machine Daryl. Cheers!!
ReplyDeleteI pretty much gave up sending holiday cards a few years ago out of pure laziness. Now I get few and send fewer.
ReplyDeleteI did have a wonderul weekend though...spent in Boston with good friends.
