No I have not fallen off the planet. It seems I have taken a bit of a blog break though.
I’ve been doing lots of winter nesting at home as well as attending plays, concerts and events at my children’s school.
The annual class Heifer International bake sale brought in $870!! Bravo class!
All that baking, clapping and driving kids around has left me with little time or energy to blog. But since I Blog Without Obligation and believe in living life first and blogging about it all last, I guess my priorities are in the right place.
We are having a lovely Christmassy snowy day here today in the Arizona mountains, a perfect day to lock myself in the bedroom and wrap presents.
Our tree came yet again from our empty lot next door, and like last year, is a bit of a Charlie Brown tree. A tree “only a mother could love, lol!” But it is actually quite beautiful in a delicate, spindly sort of way.
Today we’ll make some cookies. Tomorrow, Christmas Eve, is our Bird Christmas Day where we make edible ornaments to hang in our yard for the wild birds. They’ll be especially grateful this year since food must be hard to come by with all this snow.
Best wishes for a happy, relaxing, and meaningful holiday for you and your family!
Goodness! I have been bad about getting to these Unplugged Projects lately. Never did get to last week’s thanks (other than to cook and eat Thanksgiving dinner!) and for this week’s writing theme, we are too busy traveling and visiting family.
But if you did a writing Unplugged Project this week, then please link to your project post in the linky below. If you didn’t join in with a writing project, then please do not link, but read more about how to join us here.
Due to seemingly waning interest and the holidays, I think we’ll have a bit of an Unplugged Project vacation. Enjoy and stay creative!
In honor of the American Thanksgiving holiday, the theme for this week’s Unplugged Project is Thanks. We will be doing our Thanks project on Wednesday afternoon (a half day at school). We’ve been too busy with school and other things to get to it yet.
If you did a Thanks Unplugged Project this week, then…well…thanks! And please add a link to your project post (not just your blog) in the Linky below. If you didn’t do a Thanks project then please do not link, but read more about how to join in here. We’d love to have you take part!
The theme for next week’s Unplugged Project will be:
Writing
Have fun and Happy Thanksgiving!
The theme for this week’s Unplugged Project was cats. We have a lot of cats. In fact there is an annoying cat trying to get between me and the computer screen now as I write this. But, that is as far as we have gotten with cats this week. Maybe I’ll link to something later.
In the meantime, what did you do for a cats Unplugged Project this week? If you did a cat-themed project, then please link to your project itself (not just your blog) in the linky below. If you didn’t do one yet but would like to join in, you can read more about the Unplugged Project here.
The theme for next week’s Unplugged Project will be:
Thanks
(Since it is the United States Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday, November 26th)
Enjoy!
The theme for this week’s Unplugged Project should have been green, not purple, since green is how I felt all weekend. I am better today but still moving slowly. No project for us this week.
If you did a purple Unplugged Project this week, thank you and please link to your purple project (not just your blog) in the Linky below. If you didn’t do a purple Unplugged Project but would like to learn how to join in, then please read more about it all here.
