TAG, I'm it!

I have been meaning to post this forever because seriously I just got so behind in my blogging with all the stuff I have been up to . . . but . . . I was tagged by not one, but three lovely stamping friends (Thanks Lauri, Tara, and Terri)

So, here goes -- 7 random things about me:

1) I am a Canadian citizen living in the USA.
2) I am highly (I break out in hives) allergic to dust mites (which is why it makes total sense that I live in the desert - NOT! -- actually, there are supposedly less mites here)
3) I have my ears pierced
4) I prefer brads over eyelets but if I must use eyelets, I try to only use SU ones because they are softer and easier to open
5) My most used stamp tool is my monoadhesive, followed closely by my paper cutter and white gelly roll pen *grins*
6) I have two drawers full of stuff "to be altered" but I have yet to do it. I am such a hoarder. My goal is to use up most of that by the time I move.
7) I drive a silver Honda Odyssey, but I have a secret crush on old VW bugs. That would be my dream car -- a fully restored VW bug in the color of my choice (probably black). Now I just need to find someone who knows how to work on cars to restore one for me.

I was wondering when you were going to post this, but I know just how busy you've been. I visit daily to catch up. :) Where in Canada are your from? I'm in BC. Are you moving back or to somewhere with lest dust? BTW, I love Grey's too! I aggree with not wanting to see Addison's show with our Grey's. I was so totally going to watch her show anyway...how could we not? However, I do like Callie and always think back to what her daddy said about not hurting her little girl. She may be tough and all that on the outside but I think she's real vulnerable inside and needs George to open her up. I love the BF ship between George and Izzy and would hope that Izzy finds someone who is a big hearted as she is, maybe McVet? I'd like to see him back! Anyhow, I'll stop typing......Have a great night!

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...

(SSD014) - Ear Infections and Pneumonia

I apologize for my late posting today . . . the countdown to being 40 weeks preggo continues.  This week has been crazy out of control already, and it's only Tuesday!  YIKES!   Friday night Baby E was running a fever and really congested.  We gave him tylenol/motrin, but he would not take in fluids, and I was worried about him, so I slept on he floor beside his bed (stupid thing to do at 39 weeks pregnant).  Anyway, I cried a bit, and when I woke up in the morning, I had the most intense pain in my right ear ever!  Seriously OW!   Saturday, Mic took the baby to the pediatrician, where he was diagnosed with double ear infections, and pneumonia -- he had a breathing treatment there, and an antibiotic shot . . . and his lungs were sounding much more clear when he left.  Late Saturday night his fever broke, much to our relief.   Sunday was an okay day, mostly we just all rested -- an interesting thought occurred to me while I was on th...
