The Housewife Tour 2013: The Week in Review

OK, so I haven't been too good about posting the last couple of weeks.  I've been busy doing odds & ends.  Nothing in particular - here's what I can remember.

  • I have been spending Wednesdays as my scrapbooking day.  Since we were done with the digital classes, the meetups have been cropping time.  Instead of driving about 1 hour one way, I have been working at home.  Here are the 4 pages I worked on this week from our 10th anniversary in 2008.  These aren't quite finished, but are getting there.



  • I am participating in a summer scrapbooking challenge that started this week.  The goal is 90 pages by the end of the summer.  Four down, 86 to go.
  • Packing for the beach - yep, going to the beach for the week!  We are going to the same place we went last year, Broadkill Beach, Delaware.
  • Volunteering with the Loudoun County Animal Shelter.  Saturday is my volunteer day.  From 9 am to 11 am, I am with the Mobile Adoption Unit.  Usually, it's at Unleashed by Petco.  Last night the shelter had a foster orienation/presentation at the library around the corner from our house, so I told them I would come & help.  Good thing I did!  There were over 70 people who attended! One of the pictures I took was feature in the Facebook post.  Once we get back from vacation, I plan on helping out at the shelter some additional hours with probably administrative tasks.
  • Washed the car inside & out.  Wow, what a task.  I wanted to get this done for awhile now and finally did it.  I kind of got sucked into some car wash/wax spray when I was at the gas station one day & spend $35.  See my post/review about the adventure.
On the horizon:
  • When we return from vacation, we've got some redecorating scheduled.  I already picked up some paint for our living room!  We are both really excited about this. 
  • I've already have a list of things to do when we get back home.  A lot of little things, but little things add up.  Look for those posts when I return from vacation.
