Happy Monday

Good morning! I was awoken this morning by my neighbor, the plumber. Last week I started noticing some toilet paper out in my backyard near my vent pipe. At first I though an animal was building a nest or something and I left it alone. Then I noticed that the pile of paper was growing. Then I noticed rocks. After closer examination, I realized they weren't rocks, they were solid human waste (to put it nicely). That explained the odor!!! Stop laughing. So, I mentioned it to dad and we, yes me included, snaked my septic system from the basement. It was DISGUSTING. It smelled awful (no surprise). Poor dad got splattered in the face, had it up his arms, and it was splashed on both of our clothes. Yuck! We didn't get it fixed. That's where the plumber came in. He dug up my backyard and discovered that roots were clogging my pipe under my porch. I think it's fixed now, but there's still large machinery in my backyard and a large hole.

And now for the good news...
I had Ed and his wife over for lunch yesterday. Doesn't that sound cool - "and his wife"? Anyway, they mentioned that they were releasing the wedding pictures yesterday and called me when they did. I cried and relived the day all over again. If you'd like to view the pictures, click here and click on their name - they're the fifth one down. You may have to register for Pictage, but you can view all of the hundreds of pictures. My favorites are the portraits of the couple outside before the reception. You can see the love in their eyes. And check out the smiles!!! You'll also see me crying down the aisle! Enjoy!

Making Cards
I've made some cards recently that I'd like to share....
