Easter Layout

This layout's been done a week or more and is based upon a design by Heidi Swapp.  Today I added the finishing touches.  And messed up the journaling.  It's less than perfect, but so am I.  And now that I've posted it, I can put it back in my calendar.  I'm using a wall calendar, and it holds a 12x12 perfectly.

Lovely ...

I'm feeling much better this morning, thank goodness.  The headache has receded considerably, and I feel like I can breathe.  I plan on doing some scrapbooking today and ignoring anything that even looks like it requires "work"!  LOL  I'll share what I get done, but I'll leave you with this bit of music.  Thanks, Sharon, for sharing this.

A wee bit to share

Yep, I know; it's been awhile.  A.G.A.I.N.  What can I say?  I have long lists of things to accomplish.  Today that includes breathing!  I have a horrid eyes-ears-throat-face sinus headache.  These trees are lovely, as are all the other blossoms and signs of spring, but they play havoc with my sinuses.  Spring is my favorite season; it's so full of color, joy, hope and rebirth!  I'm trying to celebrate it, but today it just hurts!  LOL
