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.

Today was a rainy/gloomy day. Instead of rushing to get the day started my kids and I stayed in our pajamas and snuggled in front of the TV.

An awesome thing about today was the nap I took. Just what I needed!

One great thing about today is that my sons whole school went out for a walk for National walk day. We went out and got some fresh air and exercise and the kids had a wonderful time.

The best thing about today (and everyday) is the love of my family. It can make the worst day seem so much better!!!

I am only on day 3 of your week in the life project. I started this Monday. I started late mainly because I didn't think I could do it. But the truth is... I didn't want to quit midweek. SO I am thrilled, happy, grateful and delighted to say that I am almost halfway through the photo taking part and it is the first thought I have in the morning. Document, document, document. So thanks Ali, for the push. By the time I am am finished I am sure this will be one of my most cherished projects.

Ali, I still would love to do the "Week in the Life" project, and fully intended to start last week. But by 2:00 pm last Monday, I was in the cardiac step-down unit at the nearest hospital, after having doctors described as a "cardiac event"! So I think I'll pick a week that's a little easier to document!

My happiness for today is that I got off work at 2, and I'm going to make taco soup and have it simmering all afternoon. No read mad meals today! ;)

These ladies have done a great job! I'm so busy right now to make something like that; I have quite a few projects in progress :-S
Something good from today? I've bought two comfy pillows :-) That kind who "recognizes" your body to make you feel better. I've also taken a nap :-)

I really enjoyed everyone's layouts. Today has been a good day because I volunteered in my first grader's class. When I went to leave, she thanked me for loving her enough to help at school. It was a priceless moment for me.

there is one good thing about my day today, but it is bittersweet. my mom is coming to visit me tonight. she lives 3 states away so i only see her maybe 2 times a year. she let me know last night that she will be here tonight. shes coming home to visit a friend of hers with breast cancer. the doctors only give her 2 to 3 months left. i am praying for my moms friend because ive known her for as long as i can even remember, but i am happy to be able to see my mom, i miss her like crazy.

Something good for today? Someone we (my group) heard that this person is moving to a different group. Sorry...that's a good news to all of us who had to work with this person. Another one is I was able to solve a problem my co-worker was having a problem with. Working for 2 hours or so...now he will only have to work on it for maybe 20-30 minutes...yippee.
