Wow, half way through Sept and almost a month through school (that will hit on friday). I think we are in a routine now. The kiddos are getting used to what we do everyday and the way things need to be done. Now, just 8 more months of this, lol. I am sure the teachers and the kiddos are both thinking argh!!

Happy Monday everyone! I figured we all needed a coffee themed card today. This one is just too fun. May the Coffee be with you. I am definitely missing the coffee in Turkiye. I don't drink any, well, incredibly rare coffee here in the usa, but I do love a good cup of Turkish Coffee.
Back to school! Week number 3, time to start with a coffee card! don't we all need some of that to start off a school week.

Today is when the staff returns to the school. We usually don't have SO much time before the kids come back. This year we have to work 8 day (all next week and the following monday), Kids start on the 20th. Most of the time, it's three days and BAM the kids are there.....
Check out my lace store....lots of new stuff with more new goodies to be added https://laceplacebyholley.etsy.com
just two more days off, I hope you have been checking out my lace store to see the new goodies that I got when I was in Turkiye. What fun. Be sure and go by the store (link in the bottom) and check it out.
Happy Monday! WOO HOO, first Monday in Istanbul. what should I do, hmmmm, I know, SHOP for lace, given that it is Monday, I am guessing that I have already gone shopping on Friday and Saturday, lol. Just guessing. I will be updating some of my blog posts with current info, but some I am pre-writing because I know time will be critical when I am there. I will say though that I do check my blog daily and read your comments :)
Huge hugs everyone!
First day in Turkiye! I am sure I am still suffering a lot of jet lag. You all know I have huge trouble sleeping in a strange bed, so what's going to happen to me in Turkiye? eventually I will just get so exhausted I will sleep. But, I am also SO excited that I go a day or two....how is that possible? I don't sleep on the plane and the travel time, from time I leave my house until the time I get to my home in Turkiye is over 24 hours.....and still I am unable to fall asleep the first night even though I am SO SO tired, lol. I know....COFFEE.....give me lots of COFFEE
Happy Monday everyone! It's time for a little coffee theme card today. I am so happy that we are just three weeks from the trip. I am having fun with my little kids each day as we approach summertime. The kids will get a break for a week and then they (and the same teacher) will continue through summer for at least a month). Then when I come back in fall, hopefully they will all be there for their last month, August when two of them will turn 3.
Happy Monday everyone! This is the last couple of days of April. Woo Hoo. Just 24 days until Turkiye now. Thought we would start out the week with a little coffee theme card... It says, "I just realized I'm not a morning person. I'm a coffee person." Here's a really weird thing, I don't often care for American coffee nor do i drink coffee day to day at home. I do however love coffee in Turkiye and enjoy it there!

Here's a little humor to start off the day! HA! I just got a huge laugh out of it. I hope you do too. Perhaps I have never mentioned it here on this blog, but another hobby that I love is collecting fossils. I live in south Texas where they are readily available. And by that, I mean, you could go into the dirt in your backyard and probably find some!

ONE MONTH!! I am now 30 days from departure. How exciting is that? I know I am so ready to go. Just a month now. Woo Hoo. Four and half weeks of school to go! We can do it! I thought this lace was just gorgeous! I love the sentiment on this card, "Love is in the air. And it smells like coffee." HA!

Happy Tuesday everyone. Thought I would share a card with one of my favorite topics today, COFFEE!! You all know I love coffee as a topic, lol. I took an awesome class at the convention to make coffee theme cards, it was from Brass and Bliss (a.k.a. Rubbernecker). We made coffee theme cards that were also gift card holders. What fun. I look forward to sharing those with you later.

I am thankful for the Friday off, and this upcoming week will be my first full week of work in the since mid-March. Here's one of the cards that I made during my time at the convention.

I have HUGE thanks for my DH who has stuck by me through all this. The sickness before surgery, the surgery, the HUGE amount of changes after surgery and now....the wonderful normal life post surgery (with occasional panics about going back to pre-surgery life). What a trooper he is. He's the best, i tell you what, the BEST! I had to whip out this Penny Black stamp, coffee theme of course just for him!
Question of the day: favorite embellishments?
Mine? um, LACE Lace and more Lace, buttons, die cuts....
