Where did August go?

It doesn't seem possible that the last 3 months are pretty much gone.  School has started in most areas and this week is in the cool 60's.  They predict a verrrrry cold winter, so get the boots and gloves out, and winterize the ol' homestead. 
I haven't been doing a lot of stamping or creating lately.  Just not feeling creative.  Also, my camera is busted and DH is having it worked on as I write.  If the cost is too much it will be a NEW camera for me.  I kinda hope it doesn't get fixed.  I've had it for almost 5 years and in this day and age that makes it a dinosaur.  I want a new fandangled one...lol.  When this all comes together I'll be so happy.  I am learning more every day, but still trying to figure out how to set up email accounts for those who want to make comments, but are not Google Followers or Google Friends.  Of course you will be the first to know.
My DH and I are leaving on a cruise to Alaska in less than 2 weeks.  It's our first cruise and I'm so excited I could "pee my pants ." LOL   We are both looking forward to this new adventure.  We booked excursions in every port we stop at.  This may be pushing it, but we'll never know how this works unless we try.  We're going for a week and if all works out we'll go for longer cruises in the future.  We, also, have a trip planned to Arizona in November.  A week in Tucson and a week in Scottsdale.  My DB and DSIL bought a house in Maricopa and we can't wait to see it.  They have become "snowbirds" and will spend half their time in WA state.  Lucky Duckies!  I look forward to when my DH and I start this in 3 years.  I guess getting old has some bennies. 
I hope to get closer to operating this site just a little better in the near future. 
Keep following along and I may surprise YOU!

It's a new month: August

Here it is...August already!  I have big plans today for my DGD and myself.  We're heading off to see my Dsister to have lots of fun.  I really don't know what's planned, but I'm sure it will be fun.  We plan on a lunch of Chinese food and I know that will be the start of a great couple days. 
I made some big changes to my craft room this weekend.  New cabinet for the wall to get rid of an old one my father made for his shop back in 80's.  It was for his reloading equipment.  You can imagine what that looked like.LOL  If I knew how to add pictures I would, but I haven't learned that part yet.  NEXT WEEK...  There still isn't any additional space in this room.  I am soon to become more clever in arranging...tee hee.  So far I've taken over part of our office and I think there's a little more room left in the bedroom.  My formal DR had been taken over by my sewing machine and my DS girlfriend's machine.  It's craft heaven in my house. YEA!!!  My DH can have the 3 car garage as his play area, except there's a car and Harley in there.  I'm sure he's overjoyed with the prospects.
Still waiting for followers.  I know, you out there that are my friends, don't do much in the line of blogging, so give me a call and I'll show you the ropes.  We can learn together and have lots of fun and sharing.
