No Stamping for me today.

301 Comments

Sadly, there is no time for stamping today.  A quick ditty this morning is all I have time for. . . .. . .

A lady and her co-workers go to a bar after a hard days work to unwind.  As she is sitting there the most gorgeous man she has ever seen walked in.  She couldn’t help but take little glances at him out of the corner of her eye.  Much to her disbelief he walked over to her and said “for twenty dollars I’ll do any thing you ask me to do”.  She thought for a moment, reached down and got a twenty out of her purse and said “Clean my house”, lol.

 That’s how I’m feeling today.  Much to do in way of housework.  We are having a birthday party for my Grand Daughter this weekend and I have a messy house to get ready for company.

There are so many comments on yesterday’s post, I’m so very amazed!  I would love to know where everyone is from.  Give me a shout out today by commenting on this post telling me were you live.  I’ll start by telling you I’m from West Alexandria, Ohio.

 Don’t forget to stop by tomorrow, Friday, I will be announcing the winner of yesterday’s blog candy.

May your day be a peaceful and relaxing one. 

Until my next post.. . . . . . .

Hugs,

Michelle

    Hey Michelle,
    Grandkids are so much fun, I have 5 of them and they keep me busy. I go to there house to visit so I don’t have to clean mine! I love reading your blog daily. Well clean if you must…. sadly I miss your art work today. I am living in Sunny Florida in Inverness. Just a stones throw from Crystal River where the manatees play. We love to canoe there and see the friendly creatures. It stays 70degrees cold there year round in the water because of the nearby springs. Nice on a hot day!

    I read your blog everyday via email. It is what I refer to as my “HAPPY EMAIL!” You are so creative, talented and entertaining too! I loved today’s joke. I feel the same way!!

    I live in a small village just east of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (Canada’s National Capital!)

    Cheers!

    Hi Michelle,

    The same good-looking guy was at my house in Milledgeville, GA last week helping me get ready for my daughter-in-law and 3 grandsons to fly in from Korea. They are here for a month. Sadly, their Daddy couldn’t come — Uncle Sam said no.

    I get your emails every day in Madison, Wisconsin. Love them! As one of my stamps says: Housework is such a drag. You mop, you dust, you vacuum, and then three months later you have to do it all over again. (At least that’s MY motto!) I’d rather be stamping! Thanks, Michelle.

    Hi Michelle, I’m from Bloomington, IN but originally from Cincinnati, OH. Lived in Columbus, OH for about 8 years while my husband was getting his Ph.D. so I know a little bit about Ohio. I too need to house clean. Working full time doesn’t help you get the house work done! Cheers! Donna

    Hi Michelle,
    I am from Jacksonville, FL and have been tuning into you daily blog for about a month now and I am so inspired. I had gotten away from daily inking when a client of my lSS, posted your blog on her blog and that’s when I stopped housework altogether and started inking daily again. Guess I better get caught up today to.

    Good morning, from used to be sunny Northern California. We only seen the sun twice in the last 25 days due to all the smoke from the 2000 fires that have been burning since June 21st. Yesterday was beautiful, so there was hope for total clearing, but today is very smoky again. I don’t know why that happens.

    I’m originally from Anaheim, CA (Disneyland), but have lived in Oroville California for the better part of my life.

    Anyway, Thanks for the daily (almost ; – ) tutorials. They have helped me immensly in my creativity (which does not come naturally!).
