Dairy of a Much Needed Vacation - Day Eleven and the last true vacation day :(

I woke up to the feeling of a kitty washing my nose with his rough little tongue.....Kirby never does that but for some reason he wanted me up at 8:00am....they had food and fresh water, but he would not leave me alone.

Stayed up late last night reading and I was surprised I was as motivated as I was when I got up this morning.  I had Connor and I go outside just as soon as my coffee was ready to water everything in sight.  All the containers, the flower beds, the vegie garden, the tomato garden, all the hanging planters.  In this heat, it has to be done every day.

Much too hot for two days in a row at the pool, so I spent a few more hours purging and organizing my craft room....wouldn't you figure, I'd get motivated to do this during the last part of my vacation.  I'm starting to get quite the pile of stuff to sell or donate.

The other day when I was at my girlfriend's massage center, she sent me home with this wonderful flower water.  It's the perfect thing to spritz your face with when it's hot.....and I love the lavender scent.   Thanks Di!  It's very refreshing!

I headed up toward Ames in the afternoon, with a pit stop in Ankeny.  I needed to pick up some green cardstock for a couple of pages that I'm working on.  I couldn't believe I didn't have the right shade of green that would work with the pattern paper I am using.  I hadn't been in Memory Bound for at least a couple of months and it was fun to see what all was new.  I did pick up some new DoodleBug Fancy Frills border stickers and a few sheets of a summer themed "Sunshine Happiness" by Bella Blvd, but that was all.

Couldn't believe I got so much done in a short amount of time.....I ended up running out of pages to do...now, I couldn't completely finish what I'd done til I got back to my craft room, but the pages were 80% done.

Made more headway in my craftroom.....the scrapbook sale pile is growing......
