WOYWW #191

I forgot it was Wednesday...but it is and that means time to participate in What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.  Julia at the STAMPING GROUND hosts this get together and she has all the details on her sidebar.  It's fun, it's addivitive and it's worthy.

These are all areas that I work at and most have the start of Valentine ideas laying there.
 My main workspace
this is to the left of this bottom picture, I use this a lot for fabric cutting and sorting buttons. It is a gateleg table so I can make it bigger and smaller with the dropped edges etc

This is directly behind my main workspace, my die cut, embossing table and turn back and stack area.

Don't know if it is our weather or what but this has been a hellish post to complete, we missed most of the snow that is throughout Iowa 6-10 inches, but we are having the winds  45mph (maybe it all blew away!). Hehee. Wind chill temps can develop this evening.  So definitely staying inside.
Have any of you heard of Babylon?  I have been having it pop up as a search engine and I don't use it, just close it.  Wondering if that is slowing my system down.  Cannot load my pictures or do any speed typing for this post.  

At 1pm I had to call my provider, suggested I run a complete scan of my system as he could see no connection problems either there or from our lines. It's 5pm and I just have been able to load pictures and continue.  BABYLON is still here, but 8 other problems were reported fixed. So will see what happens.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks to all who left such nice comments last week. Glad I could make most of the visits to your creatiave area.  Best wishes for a wonderful week ahead.

It's #190 on WOYWW

Over at Ms. Julia's STAMPING GROUND  it is the 190th post for What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. She has all the details if you are new to this addiction.

This Wednesday caught me off guard. I was sorting tags. Since I rearranged my crafty space, I've had times I cannot find things. I had put all my tags in a cute little lunch box and forgot about them. So today while I was searching for my sympathy cards,  I found them.  The box is now labeled and will be handy for me to find from here on out.

We've had 4 people, ages 47, 59, 60 and 70 die since last Wednesday. My supply of Sympathy cards is gone, so I've intentions of making more.  But want to work on some Valentine projects also.

We are having unusual weather, in the 40's with sunshine, then below zero with high winds. Not much precipitation since before Christmas. Just thankful I have no where to go. ! !

Thanks for stopping by, have a great time enjoying WOYWW.

WOYWW #189

Where oh Where does a week go? Hello Everyone, thanks for stopping by. Today is the STAMPING GROUND 's What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday chance to post your picture, get your number and hop around the world for some fun.  Head over to Ms. Julia's blog and get all the details.

 Desk #1 has bits and pieces of some White Valentine Tags. I've a swap for February and got some great MOJO going so got them done early. One never knows what might come up. Sorry but I am only for now showing the back side. Will do a post when the swap is over.
Desk #2 has some sparkle. Finally unpacked a sack from our only area craft shop who had 80% off lots of selected items. Friday I took part of the day and headed east to have lunch at Taco John's and pick up a few sale items.  I was so hungary for their  grilled stuffed taco and nacho's, and I swear it's what brought me back to real living again. Yummy..And something about shopping just satisfies the heart.

Hope all is well your way, enjoy the visits with WOYWW and thanks so much for all your encouraging words and always stopping by.

It's WOYWW #188


#188 at Julia's STAMPING GROUND  visitation allows you to post Your Wednesday Workdesk, share it with the world and have some fun making friends and doing it. She has all the details.

A little late today, hubby took me away for 2 days, wonderful food, hotel room and  a bit more cash in my pocket from playing slots. Weather was beautiful for 2hr travel, but nice to be home. And I am feeling better!

My desk has had a little action, a baby shower card and that is the remains on my desk. Tiny feet and hands,   a stork with long legs rubber stamps, some blue and I forgot to take the photo.
Next project will be a 80th Birthday card for a dear family friend. Party on Sunday!!!!  I've been going thru the Valentine treasures, but come up missing the most important box...my supplies, have one place left to look but means a ladder has to come into the house. And I better do it today while the temps are good.

Thanks for stopping by hope you are enjoying the NEW YEAR and have started to really enjoy some creative time.

WOYWW #187

No New Years Resolutions this year SO far!! But soon I must know what day of the week it is.
 Today is Wednesday...What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. That means at Ms Julia's at the STAMPING GROUND across the pond lots of crafty people love to show off their creative desks, fresh and clean  OR not so.  Just bop on over and she has all the details, it's addictive so be prepared.

This shows the remains of corks, Christmas balls, Santa and some felt.
I am hoping to spend some time putting away Christmas throughout the house today and tomorrow. Can't lift too much yet, but DH will help carry to the basement as he don't like too much stuff sitting around.

Thanks for stopping by, I 'll be visiting as many as I can this week and I want to wish you all a 
WONDERFUL 2013, HAPPINESS & GOOD HEALTH
