My daughter in law, Heather,
has asked for my address twice
in the last couple of months.
I love her dearly but she's a little
unorganized. (Sorry, Heather, but
you know it's true!) I hope she's
not reading this because I haven't sent
her birthday gift out yet. In an
attempt to keep her a little more
organized, I made her a rolodex.
Naturally it's more than just an
ordinary rolodex. I used to trade
them on a site I belong to, but I
haven't traded anything in a couple
of years so I decided I would
repurpose it. And, yes, I
already put my address in it!
The cards are decorated on the
front and a small area on the back
and there is plenty of room to add
any information, address, phone,
birthday, etc.
Looking at it now, I think I should
have added something to the puzzle
pieces, but it's in the box now. I didn't
have a pattern for the bottom of the cards
but it's in the rolo box so who cares, right?!
I was pleased with how most of them
came out.
I have to mow today. Last year
I was having so much problem with
the mower and I finally (I think) figured
out what the problem was and got a
part for it, but I don't know if it
solved it because my neighbors
started mowing my lawn for me! So I'm
about to find out. I charged it all
night so it should be ready to go.
Naturally my arm has started hurting again.
The cortisone shot hasn't lasted as
long this time, and I can't get another until
after May 10. But I'll take a little
pain if the mower works.....
Wow! Your muse is back!! Of course I love the cards! Such neat phrases. The rolodex is really unique. Do all the cards go in it? She'll love it! Even with the recent snow, you are mowing?! I love the smell of fresh cut grass. Your neighbors are angels! I love how they help you out. Hope that your shoulder will behave 'til 5/10. Welcome back! Hope your week off was rewarding!
ReplyDeleteThanks, yes, they all fit in, but I only could make two for each letter. but most of the time you don't know people with all the letters anyway. Have to buy a new mower. This one is just never going to work. Mowed my lawn with my BIL mower, not self propelled and feel like I've been run over by a truck. :(
ReplyDeleteBummer - maybe you can find one on sale. Aleve tonight?
ReplyDeleteNot allowed to take any pain med like that because of kidney disease...because of pain meds.....long story!
