Couldn't sleep in this morning, so I got around 7:00, got into my exercise clothes, made a pot of coffee, retrieved the paper and sat down to enjoy both.
The weather is so nice, I decided to bike to the gym. Did a 15 minute round trip bike ride, 25 minutes of cardio and 25 minutes of strength training. Feels good to get back in the rhythm. Fred took a day off, but we both intend to go tomorrow morning.

I've had yard work that I needed to do today, but I didn't get to it. I'll get it done tomorrow morning. My boys went to see Gamer this afternoon and came home saying they liked it. I adore Gerard Butler, but it's not my kind of movie so I'm stayed home.
I'm trying to finish the "Photo Editing Workflow" class I signed up for at Jessica Sprague's site. It's only been 6 months since I signed up for the class and I'm only on Lesson 3 or 5. I promise that by the time I go to bed Monday night, I will have this class completed.
I also worked on organizing my digital scrapbook stuff. I figured since I did a purge and organization of my traditional scrapbook supplies, I should do the same with the digi supplies. Ya got ta love ACDSee Photo Manager for that!
I wanted to share a a project that I put together last weekend. I've had this haiku that Connor wrote back 2005 on my inspiration board in the scraproom but I wanted to do something with it, so I had an unfinished frame I purchased at IKEA and I took my Zig markers and decorated it. It's now in hanging in the guest room.
It's one of my favorite pieces of schoolwork Connor has done.
My flowers are still looking good, well at least, the flowers in the ground and in some of my containers. The hanging baskets are starting to look worse for wear and that's one of the things I need to do tomorrow.
Here's my wave petunias going to town in the front of the house
Believe it or not, I DID NOT place these lavender petunias, there must have been some seeds down in my rock garden that liked it there, because here they are -
Hope your weekend has been nice! Thanks for stopping by!

I am so glad you're feeling better :) and that you've organized and purged and scrapped this weekend. LOs look fantastic. :)Very impressed w/your sewing skills on that dress!
And tell Connor nice work w/the haiku!
OMG the haiku, Connor's illustrations, and the dressed-up frame are AWESOME!!
I wish I could have petunias in the ground; the rabbits would eat them off at ground level in less than a day. I doubt I'll ever try it again, though I love the look and smell of a huge wad of them!
