Week in the Life : sharing samples + giveaway
Tags:Hoping to have some embellished rectangles to share with you tomorrow. In the meantime I have been getting a bunch of different samples from people participating this week. I love to see the variety and how everyone is making it work for themselves, their story, their photos, their time.
Feel free to keep sending them my way as you get a chance to work on your album/layout/project. See below for today's giveaway.
Also, I answered most questions in the comments section yesterday. If you asked a question check there for your answer.

I love all the different ideas that everyone has come up with. The best thing about today is that gas is 2.99 :) and I had my yoga class this morning. And the Schwan's man comes today. Thanks Ali! I LOVE this project!

It's a rainy day outside here in Knoxville, TN, but it's nice and cozy here inside and the little guy is taking a long nap so I can catch up on my Week in the Life project. :-)

Ah, I'm so happy today. I had done a load of my whites last week, and my favorite white shirt had gotten this substance on it. It almost looked like someone stepped on it with a greasy boot. Well, I was going to rewash everything, although I didn't know what the "substance" was until a few days ago. I was in the laundry room and I picked up my sons tie-dyed shirt from art that I need to wash separately. Apparently, I had laid my whites on top of his blue tie-dyed shirt and they picked up the color. Well, today is a great day because I just soaked the load in bleach and rewashed and it ALL CAME OUT!
Thanks for the prompt to do the Week in the Life, I had a blast!

What a great project! I'm so enjoying all the variety that people have in their finished projects. I spent time making myself feel good at the gym this morning

Does it have to be "good" or can it be over-the-top wonderful??? :) My over-the-top wonderful thing is that today is my last day in the office until next week and I am leaving for an amazing 6-day trip with my daughter and my mom tomorrow morning. AND I am almost done packing!!!

Two good things about today - I started the day with a 30 minute run on the treadmill & now I'm drinking chocolate truffle coffee while reading one of my favorite blogs!

We are going to spend the day with Daddy (aka my hubby) My husband works about 90 miles away and does not make it home until the weekends, if he is lucky. We are going to do a surprise visit today. We are so excited, we miss him dearly.

Really, it is so good just to HAVE another day. And I always spend Wednesday mornings volunteering in my kids' classrooms, so it is full of fun and energy and simple joys.

Good Morning ~
As I was reading your post and what is good about today - a friend is going to her homeland Cambodia and is bringing items that the people who are totally poor do not have. I thought for maybe one second and said I would like to donate too ! Items that we use daily ( toothbrushes and reading glasses ) are things that they cannot afford. How sad. Some of my friends families live in straw and mud huts and have 10 + people living with them. The parents take care of thier elders and children first , so they miss out on many things that we take for granted. I stopped at the dollar store and bought them out of glasses and toothbrushes ! I came to work today and shared what I did and two of the guys I work with pitched in some cash - so now the donation is from all three of us !! What I am glad about is that I was able to share with people I don't even know ~~ Happy Day ~~

Great things about today was that I didn't have to work a night shift, I got to sleep in and i've just been chosen as a captain for a computer program to start at the hospital I work in.
But most especially, I get to spend the whole day with my son and my husband on a beautiful autumn day!
LOVE ALL THE INSPIRATING WORK FROM EVERYONE!
