Project 365 Day 3

8:14 PM |

This was church...I only attended Sunday School this morning. I still have this cough that just will not go away and last Wednesday night at church I thought I was gonna hack up a lung..well not really..but it felt like that. Anyhow...I came home and took a small nap. Afterwards

me and Shaina headed out to Kohl's to return a shirt that did not fit her. So with our exchange credit and 10 Kohls cash she had 26 dollars to spend. My baby girl did good. One shirt exchanged for three. WhooHOOO!

Now the funny and serendipity part of our trip is that while we are in the return line...My husband's ex-wife's BF (did ya follow that..hahaha) walks out from the restroom and starts talking to me. We chat for a few minutes and come to find out...the ex-wife is in line behind me...GO Figure! She didn't realize it was me and of course we just exchanged a few polite words...the funny part is that her BF is just gabbing away with me the whole time. I bet that wasn't a pleasant trip out of that store. That's the funny part..the serendipity part is that right behind the ex-wife in line is my SON...can ya believe it. He rode up to go shopping with his Grandmother and was exchanging 2 shirts I got him for Christmas that was a bit too big. So we shopped and visited. Who know's who else I would have seen up there if I had stayed any longer...hahaha!

So all that brings me to my Day 3 Photo for P365.

My 2 Kiddo's Christopher and Shaina.

Here is my very first art journal page. I did not even know what art journaling really was unitl I signed up for the Art Journal Caravan at Scrapbookgraphics with Tangie Baxter. Our first assignment was to journal our word for 2010. My word is Faith. To me Faith is timeless and will carry you along when there seems to be nothing there. I want to grow in my faith with God and lose all my doubts that seem to niggle about in my brain at the oddest times. With that said..this is Page 1.

I forgot who the paper is created by..but when I sort that out I will give proper credit.

Things I needed to do today but didn't were

1. Go buy Groceries

2. Exchange a shirt for my daughter at Kohl's

3. Clean up the computer room.

What I did do was

1. Relax

2. Play Deal or No Deal DVD game with daughter

3. Surf the net

Not too productive, but very nice =)

Here is my Day 2 Photo for P365.

It's what you see when you look directly out of my front door. It's the ugliest little

tree in the winter but when spring comes it's quite pretty and the little birds love it.

Day 1 Project 365

Today kicks off Day one of Project 365 2010. I am excited to give this a go. I think our life is pretty mundane but I would give my eye teeth to know what mundane was for my Grandparents growing up. So mundane or not it will get documented.

So here is my Day 1 Photo that I snapped of my daughter as she was sitting across from me playing her Nintendo DS (that I can almost swear she sleeps with but she denys).

We have all spent a leisurely day watching movies and playing dominos.

Last night we rang in the new year pretty much the same way. We went to our church and had a soup/sandwich supper and played games. The kids were supposed to pop fireworks but that part got rained out. I am glad that my daughter had her BF with her so at least she had another

giggling girl to holler Happy New Year at midnight. =)
