Things are back to normal here

Well things around here have gotten back to normal. Mom is feeling somewhat better and Dad is doing the same thig that he always does sit in his chair and sleep and watch TV, he is sleeping now and so is Mom. I have been up since 4:30 this morning and I am still awake, but those two are sleeping away the day and then complain that they are so tired. I wish that I could lay down and take a nap but I cna't because if I do I will be so tired and uncomfortable that I might as well stay in the bed for the rest of the day. When I first came home form the rehab center I would usually lay on the bed and watch TV but as the healing process went along it became more and more uncomfortable to lay all day in the bed so that is when I started scrapbooking again. I had started when I first came home and then I thought that I was not very good at it and I stopped but then a friend got me a subscription to a monthly scrapbook kit and I started to do some things but was not really into until I found KitNKaboodles on the web and ordered their kit and thenI really started getting into with the help of the message boards that is on there and all the wonderful ladies there. they give inspiration to rveryone and they are so supportive of you. I have done more in the last 3 months than I have the entire time that I have been hurt. I also have done alot more cards than before and I really enjoy making cards for family and friends.
I finally got a picture of the finished KNK ATC Swap board that I started and couldn't finish it because I didn't have any mini clothespins but I ordered them and they have come. They are hanging like a clothes line. I put each card in a 3x4 bag an closed it and put an eyelet in the top of the bag and threaded ribbon through it and tied it and then put it on the line with the mini clothespin. Now I have to find a place to put it above my desk so I can look at it all the time. I also have gotten new papers that I have wanted for a long tiem and now they are coming in a kit that I am getting in April from KNK but you can never have enough papers for BasicGrey. That is my favorite line and the next favorite line is from Crate Paper.
Here is the paper and stuff that I have gotten recently
The Color Me Silly papers and Monograms and Tags






Stampin Up! Cardstock in Regal Tones

So that is all for today!
