WOYWW #614

 Another Wednesday, time to peek at each others desks and projects! If you want to know what WOYWW is, just go to http://www.stamping-ground.blogspot.ca/p/what-is-woyww.html  and all will be revealed! 

Good morning/afternoon/evening! I hope everyone is well and in good spirits. Today is the first day our temperatures have gone above 0°C in a long time! Hopefully it means we are on our way to Spring. But there is still a good chance we have a couple more snowstorms in our future.

Anyway, here is my #1 desk this morning:

And #2 desk

Last week I challenged you to guess where I got the base for my bookmarks...here are two more I made this week:

side 1

flipped to side 2

And here is where I got the bases! I just couldn't continue to throw these perfect pieces away every time I opened a tissue box!

Some of you were interested in how I do my menu planning in my BUJO, here it is. I worked for a very long time on this, tweaking and changing things. I started with putting everything on colour coded post-it strips, but that just became insane - I have so many recipes I like! So I switched to writing my menus in pencil, and I erase them every month. And I choose my meals from the 3x5 cards.

That's it for menu planning. I have photocopied the pages to add to my next BUJO so I don't have to do it all again by hand! It seems to be working for me so far...

And here, last but not least, Mittsy in the window wanting in, but just before I took this photo Inky was right there playing with Mittsy through the window. It was so funny! 

Mittsy asks for this! She loves it! Especially the mice...

So that's it for us, I hope everyone has a lovely week, and the kitties say "meow!"

Hello everyone! I hope you are all safe and warm, and getting your jabs! We are no where near getting ours yet, even my 90 year old step-father hasn't gotten his. But we have been promised it will start March 15, but for the likes of us over 60's...probably not until June! Crazy!

Anyway, I think I forgot to post the look out my window for February, but here is March:

Still lots of snow!

And here is my desk in the chilly room

And the warmer room - working on my meal planning for next week

I have been doing some art this week, which is nice. My cold room is slightly warming up...

I made a book mark - do you know what I used for the base?

and some ATCs from the masterboard I made last week, and Tim Holtz words

Here are my last two pages of my March Bujo:

I have also finally figured out my Meal Planning pages, which I will post next week if anyone is interested.

Can you help?

I have been having trouble sleeping lately, mostly due to hubby's snoring, and I've been experimenting with earplugs. I get my best sleep with earplugs. I started using the cheap foam ones which worked well, but after a few days my ears started itching and hurting because they were too big. So I ordered some smaller plastic/silicone earplugs for small ears, which worked great the first two nights, but now drive me crazy with the itching. I couldn't wear them last night, I had to take them out. Has anyone else had experience with ear plugs at night that you could share with me? TIA!

I'm sure you are wondering what Inky and Mittsy are up to...Inky as you saw is sleeping under her hammock at the moment. Here is where Mittsy was this morning...

This window looks onto the backyard, Mittsy's favourite playground. She wants so badly to get back outside!

Anyway that's it for us today, have a wonderful week, Inky and Mittsy say "meow!"

Happy February! Boy January went by so fast! We are experiencing our annual "February thaw" that people forget about every year, it's when February teases us that Spring is just around the corner...then blasts us with snow to prove it's still winter! the blast should come on Thursday...

AND...


15 years today I started this blog! Hard to believe!

Here is my desk today (taken Tuesday):

And some projects I worked on this week. My last week's masterboard went from this

to this

to these

with some pieces leftover!

February's challenge with Nina Ribena is using packaging and clothing tags, which I already do a lot. So I started with these

and made this bookmark

  

and this Belly Band so far

 That's it for me this week, Mittsy, Inky and I wish you all a wonderful week!
