Time Well Wasted: July 2010

Just a quick update today, as I'm preparing for my mother-in-law and sister-in-law to arrive this afternoon for the week. It's a dreary, rainy, miserable sort of day outside. The kind that makes you want to just curl up with a good read. Unfortunately, I have neither a good book to enjoy or the time to spend enjoying it.

Life the last few days has been a bit of a whirlwind. After celebrating a lovely sunny Canada Day on the 1st, I became rather busy. Paperwork, housework, entertaining my little youngster (who is in another "can't play by myself" stage) and prepping for my extended family's arrival. On top of all that, during a phone call with my sister on Saturday morning, I found out that she and her family were coming kind of close to our neck of the woods this coming weekend.

Long story short: my company leaves on Saturday morning, and later that same Saturday we're taking our camper roughly 4 hrs away to go camping for a couple of days with my sister and her family. After that, Adam (my husband), comes home and Emily and I travel back to Saskatchewan with my sister, where we'll stay for another 3+ weeks. We had always intended to go to Saskatchewan for a couple of weeks, but this bumps up the scheduling. And now I no longer have a few days to get ready after my in-laws leave. So, needless to say, this week may very well be a busy one. But it should all be lots of fun.

I've had to put away all my scrapbooking supplies once again in order to make room for our guests. But I did manage to complete a few layouts first. Here they are:
