I'm baaaaaaack!

I missed blogging SO much!  It was a much needed break, but the thing I missed most was my daily interactions with everyone.  I love posting everyday and checking in to see what everyone else is up too.  I did get down to my craft area on Sunday and got caught up on Project Life, made several cards and started on another project.  I still don't feel like my mojo is 100% back though.  I think about crafting 99% of the time but it's getting myself down to my room that's the issue.  Anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

So last Friday was my 35th birthday.  It didn't feel like my birthday, at all.  It was the weirdest day, we had rain, snow and sun, I HAD to be at work for a meeting, we didn't get to go out and celebrate because the school carnival was that night.  It was just an odd day.  One thing about Mike, he's always been awesome about making my birthday special.  Awhile ago I mentioned, in passing, that I wanted a vintage typewriter, for scrapbooking.  He remembered and this was what he got me...

I was SO surprised!  It came in the original case and everything!  I've already ordered ribbon, the ribbon in it was dried out and you could just faintly see the type.  I can't wait to use this with my Project Life!

On Saturday we had no plans.  Yes, zero, none, nada!  It was fabulous!  I made a trip to Big Lots and was rewarded with the following:

Halloween glitter Thickers!  Only $2!  My favorite is the 31 on the backside of this.

These Hampton Arts stamps for $1.50.  I have a card to share later this week with these!!

Finally, some Basic Grey chipboard letters, which I've put to use in my PL album already, and these fun fall Woolies!  I never find anything at Big Lots so I was so excited when I found this stuff!

I hope you have a beautiful Monday and thank you so much for sticking with me last week.  Your comments and sweet words meant the world to me!  I'll be back tomorrow!!!  Thanks for popping in today!
