Creative Friday--Ain't Too Proud to Bib Edition

Alert the presses, the Creative Friday drought has ended at last! Michelle and family have returned from their summer of many vacations, so things can go back to "normal" again.


After taking this photo, Michelle said she doesn't think she should be allowed to take self-portraits any more. I think she's crazy, but then again can see how maybe I shouldn't be allowed to take them. Though, I don't see me cutting back on them anytime soon, no matter how unsightly I become.


Michelle had gifts for me!


Michelle served a very tasty lunch of spaghetti and meatballs, oh la la.


I was wearing a white shirt and had a soccer game to go to afterward, so there was no way I was going to risk eating that without a bib. I know my limits people!


I capture another one of Max's unconventional computer-chair sitting positions...what the?!


Michelle has been on a roll with her embroidery projects/gifts this summer and started a new one today. She's got skills.


I made and wrote 7 thank you notes in-between all our catching up from the last few weeks. Our last Creative Friday was back on July 21st! That's just not right.

**Have you been sending good mail lately?
Do you enjoy my comic strip postage?
Do you make meatballs?**

Comment Window Tidbit: I slept last night!!!!! I have a theory that the foot cream I've been using may have something to do with my sleep woes. I'm not sure, but I didn't use it last night or the night before and it appears to be helping. I'll just have to care for my heels during the day. Sheesh!

hmmm, what's in that foot cream? been trying to send out a steady stream of good mail. started writing my grandmother letters - she is in a nursing home and can not hear very well, so it is difficult to talk to her on the phone. I'm enjoying a reason to actually write a letter - she doesn't blog, email, text, facebook which seems to be the way I communicate with most people!

That is so great you get to have your creative Fridays with Michelle again. It's just fun to get together with friends whether you are creating or not. I have not been sending good mail at all. I haven't done anything in quite a while. The postage is cute. I love Calvin and Hobbs.

I love that this post is labeled "ain't too proud to bib!" Should prove to be a great category of posts.

Love the title.

I pretty much have to avert my eyes when I see my SPs. What's with the baggage under my eyes?!

It was so good to catch up, I am totally looking forward to getting together weekly again!

I'm so glad you are sleeping. Who knew a foot cream could disrupt your sleep??

Those are really cute stamp!

Kelly said...

My favorite line was "I know my limits people!" I am the same way with a white shirt. Glad you two are back at Creative Friday!

jenn said...

Foot cream?!! Is it caffeinated or something?!

You both look so happy to resume creative Friday- keep taking the SP's!!

yeah, i'm a little annoy-ed with michelle for fartin' all over the place this summer. keep it still, lady.

i actually think that's a nice self-portrait. you both are matching, you look tan, and you have 'skinny face' (not that you have fat face the rest of the time, you know what i mean). all in the eyes of the beholder, i guess.

embrace the bib. i spill something on myself almost every single day at lunch. i don't know why i haven't embraced the bib yet. looking at stains for the rest of the day really annoys me.

i think max is taunting us.

michelle does have serious craft skills. it's demoralizing that i'm so uncrafty.

maybe nice sheets would help with the sleeping problem? at my last place my friend had 100% bamboo sheets. niiiice...
