Weekend Update: a little under the weather
Blogger is being a butt today. I'm pretty sure it's blogger because it looks like it's effecting other blogs and not just mine.
Anyway, here's a better late than never Weekend Update. (insert theme music here)
I'm feeling a little blah.
I think I have my Welcome to Spring Cold. It's kind of a tradition. I'm trying to figure out a polite way to part ways with this tradition but so far I'm at a loss.
I finally starting wearing that pedometer* I talked about in my New Year's Resolution post and after averaging approximately 8,500 steps a day I managed to walk less than 5,000 over the entire weekend!
That's right. Takin' it easy. I don't feel bad about it one bit.
I did manage to make a few things....
including this wreath for my friend, B, I still need to put the finishing touches on it, but I like how it turned out. The picture of it kind of sucks, but that's because I took it with my phone and apparently I do not know how to center it.
Here's a hand print flower I made. Actually I made about 25 of them as a gift for Little G's student teacher. The regular teacher helped me pull this surprise off by tracing all the kids hands for me and then I made them into flowers just like this one and put them in a vase.
In case you weren't feeling old today, the tag says Thanks for Helping us Grow. Love Mrs. Wilson's Kindergarten Class. NEHS class of 2022.

*I'm going to post later in the week about the cool pedometer that my hubby found for me. It's actually a Nintendo DS game and I have to say that I'm really enjoying it.

wow you are full of talent;)
and yes blogger has been a butt 2day:(
Well aren't you the creative, artistic one. I'm jealous! Great projects. I'm feelin' the love you put in them. Hope you feel better soon. Being sick sucks, so STOP IT RIGHT NOW! Hmmmm, if it were only that easy, huh? Sending chicken soup thoughts loaded with caffeine to you so you can feel better and get those extra steps in. (I bought a pedometer a couple weeks ago - it's sitting on my desk by my keyboard. Too bad I can't wear it on my hands - do finger strokes on keys count?) Hugs, Janis
I was having trouble with Blogger too. I was taking it personally ... glad it wasn't just me.
Sorry to hear about your cold. Feel better soon.
And I totally want to hear about this pedometer and DS game!
