I had a semi busy weekend as I worked the day shifts on Saturday and Sunday. I am a night owl -- always have been -- and have a hard time falling asleep before 2 am. My usual wake-up time is around 9ish. Getting up at 5:30 am takes a lot out of me. However I did survive and it wasn't all that bad for a long weekend. Some of the guys were cranky but that is a usual thing there.



One of my highlights of the weekend is when hubby came home with these for me for Easter. Pink roses are one of my favorite flowers and it thrilled my heart. They are still as beautiful today as they were on Friday.












Here is a close up of one of them. Roses are so delicate in there shape and these ones smell so good. My hubby is such a sweetheart and I feel blessed by having him in my life. Now we do have out fights and we had a doozy of one the other day but we manage to talk it out and then press forward. Neither one of us are ones that hold grudges and we are able to forgive one another quite easily. It is hard to believe that we have been married for almost 3 years now as it feels like we were just married not so long ago. I think it helps that we have some of the same interests and that we started out relationshio as friends and we are still friends -- in fact he is my very best friend. When I was a little girl I said I always wanted to marry my best friend and that is exactly what I did. YAY me!!!!!





I have been working on more cards the past few days and have been enjoying seeing the outcome. When I sell something from my etsy store I used to send a little note of thanks with my buisness card. Well, I bought this really pretty paper so I decided to make mini - mini cards that are blank inside so that I can write thank you to my customers -- they are just a little bit bigger than my buisness card so it fits so nicely inside. I love them so much that I have decided to sell them in my store. I listed the tourquise and brown ones yesterday and have two more sets that I need to list -- will do that in the next day or so -- I have them in purples and greens and pinks and greens -- Here is the one that I listed so far . I like all the colors so I am making myself a set of all of them and am also using them in the books that I send to others with my bookcrossing and bookmooching.




Well I guess that is all for now -- gotta go and do some of my "chores".

Very pretty roses, isn't it nice when the hubby is thinking of you. It's been awhile since I've got some. :)

I'm from BC too and have lived in Abbotsford as well.

Very nice cards your making. Have a good one. :D

In my first winter in NYC, my then-boyfriend bought me wool socks. And I cried. It's been 17 years & my now-husband is as caring. Xue means "snow", snowy652 !
