WOYWW 759

Welcome, it's the day we share our desks....Here Ms Julia keeps us all together.

We have had some unusual weather here....no Snow and nights 20's  days 40's. They are talking possible 50's over Christmas !  

My workspaces are atrocious...................This is a wheel around book rack, No books just most all my Christmas papers, etc is stored here and wheeled out of storage area when the season arrives. 

My main desk pretty well done creating here.  I've finished my 3x3's up through 28th

I wrapped most of the gifts and mailed almost all of my (short list this year) cards. It's the 1st year in most of my adult life I have not created a Christmas letter. Just a short note  on the card. 

This is a small patio table, glass top which has never been outside since I moved to the farm 20 years ago.  TOO MUCH WIND/DIRT to keep it safe.  Have used it for special projects and this month that was doing Christmas cards. Not many homemade ones, just the store box cards. 

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH  for 2 wks ago's  for your support. It was a rough November

Here are Four cards I haven't shared to our group yet  But they are  Dec 23 to the top left, the journey to Bethlehem, and right the24th  night before Santa comes, bottom left 24th arriving at the stable. AND the 25th  The birth of baby Jesus.  

May you all have Merry & Bright Days ahead and  a Wonderful CHRISTMAS.

Good Morning,  or Good Afternoon  it's 3:40 am here and I've been missing you.

The day we share our desks  Ms.Julia's blog is how you link up to join or visit others desk.  Haven't been up to posting,  And now it's a busy time of the year.  

November had lots of issues.

MY Desks/ are a BIG MESS  as is the whole downstairs, I've got 2 small trees that stay decorated so all I do is bring them up sit them in a favorite place and make sure the lights are working.  I can't carry up the big totes,  so little by little this week maybe a few of my favorites and only ONE Nativity.  My spirit's broken !!!!  We are home alone most Holidays  Hoping to send out Christmas cards to the many friends who have lost a loved one the past few months.

a Couple of my daily 3x3 cards for December's  Collage Art Collective...

Can see daily ones on my Facebook or Instagram 

And a 5x7 Christmas Collage.  Trying to Master bigger collages 

I'll be around not sure what time   He is still in the process of yes or no  on going to Wisconsin  (5hr drive ) for a very dear friend's funeral Thursday, would be a night away , but the weather is suppose to be great 50's and no snow ..... I'd go alone if it wasn't for my driving knee and the overnight stay.  

Wishing you all the best forpreparing for  the upcoming Holiday,  

 Sylvia.....I was unable to move the signature at the very top.

Good morning, thought I had another day !  It's freezing cold here, but weekend snow has melted.

Could not sleep so started my November Nature  daily 3x3's 

And my desk, I had it cleared before I started and now kayos, 

My hubby finished up his anhydrous spraying of fields and is officially DONE with field work and one tractor now in storage !

He is going to put clear film on 2 big windows to keep cold air at bay. Winds have been terrible. I plan on putting up heavier curtains so best do that this week. Warmer weather next week !!

Thanks for your comments last week and Enjoy a great week.

Happy WOYWW

Happy #750, what a great milestone for sharing desks, fun and love to all who've been enjoying Julia's great Wednesday's  *the day we share our desks and lots more !   Julia's Blog 

Well Fall in all it's glory has brought back some great temps, 60 and 70's and Color is really taking place with all the trees. My favorite season.

My desk wondering about my next few 3x3's for our daily posts  Ocean theme is dwindling

I brought out Halloween boxes (on the floor left) and scattered about papers, Need to get busy If I want to mail to the grandkids.  On this table to the left are paint chips !  I sorted out by color/size and found a great display piece in my storage area.  The box below that has lots of  advertising/with colors of paint chips in groupings. I do use some 3z3 's  for backgrounds and I love the green's to make leaves.

One of my daily "Ocean October 3x3's"  #16  

Hubby finished up corn/beans just before the rains came, and now he's preparing fields for next springs crops, Ripping corn stocks, then disking ground to make make it a black dirt field again.

Wishing you all a great week ahead, enjoy your season changes and I'm praying for our world to have PEACE. Everyday the news is devastating.  

 Thanks for all your visits and comments, last week.

Oh the signature sign is back !!!!   Welcome, maybe a start to a great day.   Harvest is winding down. All the corn and beans are now in storage. Only discing to bring the black ground back and  should beat being complete before the rains. WHEW!!!

Posting a Corrugated Journal I made a few days ago, as I had no where to go. Ended up with a dead battery in my vehicle. But after charging it's ready to go !  If necessary.

Now to my desk !    oh the joys of SPACE....I'm so blessed,  and I did take time to clean up the biggest share of the area, so I did some decoupaging using some tree disc he cut last fall. 

 The biggest was a darker wood and doesn't show up as bright.  I am new to this so will have to do a bit more  research !  .   Today's the day we are sharing our workspaces at Stamping Ground  many more desks to visit  and you can partake.

Thanks for all the visits last week,  It's cool here but with no winds it's been  a good fall for us.

Good Morning, it's 2 a m here, having to ice my knee and unable to sleep so what better to do than share time with the folks  HERE for our weekly visits to share What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday !

Today's 3x3 card for our theme is Ocean October, I used an embossing folder to make the background

My desk:   the start of a journal...........cardboard pages and who knows what I am applying to them. No doubt distressed collage, vintage fabric, lace and a surprise...(to you and to me.) for the theme.

This will be the cover.....will bind together with jute or a metal ring .

#29 One of September "Stamps" 3x3's  A real envelope as came in the mail to me  I cut in 1/2 and I rubberstamped the  middle   

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.  Hubby is finished with corn harvest, and is working on beans, but today we take the combine into the shop for repair. Some bars? need to be replaced, had to replace bearings last week, hoping it's only a one day job and that they can do it TODAY.  He's ahead of the game this year so there is time if no storms come.  We have errands to do:   replenish household groceries/a new battery for my car/lunch !!!!/ food for the cat !!!   So a trip to the city again. 

Thanks for the visits/comments last week. Helps a lot when I sit and wait for him to change fields.

Good Morning....running late but wanted to post. It's cool here and was great to sleep in.

It's the day we share our desks  All the updates are HERE at Ms. Julia's BLOG

My little cart I keep upstairs   It has all the makings of Reinker/Watercolor flowers/leaves.  On Facebook I follow Make Art with  Wendy Vecchi, she has Tuesday Tips and has some great classes offered .  

Then my desk  starting the process for a journal from cardboard and using black/vintage papers.  

Plus my Daily Inkbox cards 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.  It is to get warm here again 80's or so. Hubby is almost finished with corn  and will be doing soy beans all weekend. So it's moving equipment for me I guess.    Thanks for your visits and comments last week. 

ENJOY.....each day is a Treasure.

WOYWW #746

Hello everyone!  The day we share our desks, you can connect HERE to join in or visit others. 

 It's been awhile, but hubby is using his equipment to pick corn. He had some fields earlier hit by hail, so the insurance man accessed damages and with no rain it's good to process. SO I have time, late meals when he's in for the night.   Previous weeks have been time taken to attend some County Fairs. Enjoy relatives visiting from hot climates in Arizona.  I also have been clearing out the storage area, selling fall decor, and dealing with muscle issues. Almost done dealing with computer issues got a new home computer but haven't been home long enough to back up photos/documents from the old as yet.  I don't do well on comments with my phone.

My crafty space has been limited to doing 3 or 4  3x3 cards at one sitting so I can partake in the weekly challenge.  Hopefully next week I can have time to clear the desks and start enjoying open space for other projects. 

My desk area found the hot pink pen storage on sale at Dollar Tree and will be a handy item for my next weeks plan.  

This is a far away photo actually sharing my floor such a mess. 

Here ia one of the Inkbox cards 

I'll be happy to play catch up  visiting all of your blogs, Enjoy a great week.

Welcome, thanks for stopping by. It's our What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, Our hostess Julia will be happy to add you to the group HERE or you can visit by way of Mr. Linky deskers all about our world. 

I have had creative time....I can go up and down the steps pretty well once again, Right Knee (but lifting even a few heavy books isn't fun, Left Shoulder/Neck muscle issues.  SO I HAVE A BIG MESS  on all my work spots !!! 

 This is why I haven't posted for 2 weeks.  No home computer. I ended up ordering a new Dell hard drive then the monitors I have would not be compatible so had to get a new one. SUCH a WASTE  Had very frustrating times setting up 1 printer out of 3 imagine THREE..I had to also order a new one of those. HP.....words I can't say here..............the one I love ECHO ink is no longer compatible with Windows 10/11....I used it 2 years with 10 and no issue. I'd spent over 9 hrs in 4 days with them on the phone to get PINK ink on all 3 to stop printing. Mailing me defective color cartridges.  AND MONITORING MY EVERY MOVE.  The new one is a piece of junk.  Prints ok but the loading of paper isn't simple. And I change textures of paper many times.

No lack of  connective cords or power strips........................he'll help me get the no longer usables moved out...SUCH A WASTE.

My desk today  Preparing 3x3's for September's daily theme Stamps. (postage/rubber) These can be seen on Instagram or my Facebook page.

Workspace for ink play...I've a tag book to play with at some point. 

I've a few of the August theme Architecture.

Hard to believe August is almost over.  Weather was really an issue here, extreme heat for a week and a storm that damaged his corn and bean fields East of our home.  He has Crop insurance so it will be assessed during harvest time only a few weeks away. 

Wishing you all the best in whatever you are enjoying.  Thanks for stopping by.
