I can't believe that it's been...

over a year since I've posted here...No excuses...Not that I get that much traffic here, if any, but I must say I did enjoy posting things...
 
A little update on what's been going on...Have had issues with both of my knees...knee surgery took care of that...It's been a long road, but it is being well traveled...I'm still camping...The season is all most over so it will be time to close up soon...seems like it just started...weather hindered the first six weeks for sure...I'm still scrapbooking...making cards too...Have 3 IRL crops coming up in October and November...Also have a trip to Vegas planned in the near future...Grandchildren are growing like weeds...I'm trying to keep up with the latest trends in the world of scrapbooking, but I tend to go back to my pretty much plain and simple style...Had the carpet removed from my upstairs and my basement...consider vinyl planking in the upstairs...which is where my scrap area is...I like the look it will give the room, just not sure if I'm willing to spend those kinds of dollars...Ken and I will put peel and stick in the basement...Have had carpeting down there for years and now that the dogs are getting older, it was time to have it removed as the upstairs...I spend more time in the scraproom than the downstairs, even though it's finished...More of a man cave now...lol...I'm still frequent a couple of scrapbook forums...more active on one than the other...then I pretty much lurk at a few others...Hard to believe too that Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas will be upon us before you know it...Christmas is by far my favorite...I love decorating my house and it just seems to perk things up...Nothing fancy or expense, just me and my decorations...Really don't get that much company for the holidays except Christmas Eve when the family is here...I do it for me...Been doing a lot of purging around the house...I've lived here over 30 years and there comes a time when somethings gotta go...Figured it might as well be me and save some work for my kids somewhere down the road...Pretty much have all the rooms done except for the basement and attic...I've done more in the basement but still needs to be gone over...My upstairs closets are the ones...those are the catch alls and believe me they have caught a lot over the years...I've also been going through all my "scrapiness" and getting rid of lots of things...Some of it's just gone in the trash, other stuff to the art room at the local elementary school, and some other stuff I will take to the IRL crops and put out on the for sale table...Maybe I'll make a few extra dollars to spend on some more scrap stuff...lol...Well this pretty much sums things up and I think I've babbled long enough...
 
I'm really going to try and post more often...
 
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day...
