Just to let you know....

I will be MIA most of tomorrow (maybe will post something late tomorrow night) -- I have to do laundry (yep that is right, not only do I have the big rubbermaid bin full of clean laundry to fold, but also my entire bed is covered with a laundry mountain), iron and clean off my disaster of a stamp desk, (if I want to stamp ever again that is). Hopefully my kids will cooperate. J has been sick with a cold since we came home from Utah, so hopefully he will not be too needy because I need to get this all done. I mean, seriously, clean laundry and a grumpy hubby do not inkspire me. Miss you all . . . .


UPDATE: I finished folding all the laundry while I watched X-Men and X2 waiting for DH to come home from work. My desk is still in the exact same predicament, but, I plan to stamp tomorrow, so I will have to clean it up then . . . The laundry went rather quickly because I was distracted by the movie. I also got chinese takeout last night, so that helped with not having to cook and all. *smiles*

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...

EDITED TO ADD: I go by my first name, not my middle. My first name is Amanda. *smiles* Also, I am going to keep this post bumped up to the top so people can find it, but I will be posting more, so please take a moment to scroll down to find the latest stuff -- this will stay up until 50K is reached. *************************** I am so amazed that so many people have been interested in little old stamping me. Okay, well, not me actually, probably mostly my work, but either way, I'm SUPER FLATTERED! I appreciate all the comments you leave me. They really do validate me and make me feel like I should keep on going with this blog. You all ROCK! So, I have decided to do a small giveaway to show my appreciation to you. I will have two separate contests. Both of these contests will win you blog candy (yummy embellishments, and other such fun stuff). The first one is to guess my middle name. You can post your guess as a comment to this post and then I will do a drawing of every...
