$50 Your Way Giveaway February 2023!
Here is my monthly update before we get to the giveaway. January drug by! I think because it’s so dang COLD here in Sandpoint, Idaho. Which really means I spent more time in my craft room.
For Christmas my amazing children Selena and Zachary bought me the Cricut Mug Press. OHMYGOSH!!! I am beyond addicted. I’m still working on getting colors and placements right, but DANNNNNNNNNG this is fun!!
I can take a plain ole white mug, white tumbler, coasters, and magnets and turn them into THIS!!!! Of course all the pictures have disappeared. SORRY!!
Granddaughter Olivia requested some new acrylic designs for her light. So I etched these on the Cricut Maker with the help of the etching blade. What I love about these blanks are they come with the stand, remote and a power cord but you can also use batteries.
While I had the etching tool attached, I made a couple keychains too.
While scrolling away on Instagram I saw this ADORABLE idea!!
Welllllll that backfired. Selena immediately asked if I could cut out a stack of hearts. I was thinking more SHE could just hand cut them……… however, the Cricut really does make it easier and faster. So after the set was done in record time Selena ordered a set for work, a set for SIL.
GREAT!!! Now I feel guilty if I don’t offer a set to Amber for Olivia’s door.
So, 144 hearts later these are in the mail. Seriously CUTE idea right??
Last but not least I also managed to make one kitchen towel for a girlfriend going through a rough time right now.
I hope your January was a good one and February is AMAZING for you!!
Now for the real reason you are here!

I got my grosery shopping done and a load of laundry, planning on taking it easy the rest of the day.

I put on my backpack and walked to pick up some fresh groceries in the snow. I found my missing reading glasses in the backpack. I think I lost an earring somewhere along the way. It’s not expensive but sentimental value. So, at least I got some fresh air and exercise and made a healthy meal so that made me feel good. But I’m sad I lost my earring.
Tamra Phelps
My brother put the new brakes on my wheelchair today, so yay! I finally feel stablized when I get up from the chair, lol.

Thought spring was arriving but it’s a cold snowy morning and that messes up plans that require commuting. ❄️ Got sad news a girlfriend passed away too but she was sick for a long time. 😥 Anyways in general I’m grateful for my present 🎁 the gift that is each day. 🙂
Tamra Phelps

I’m staying in and taking water pills this weekend, lol. Seriously, I need a few days of serious water weight coming off–if the edema gets to be too much I have to do this. I have a bone scan Monday, and if I have to move around on an x-ray table, I don’t want to feel bloated and uncomfortable.
heather

I use them so many different ways pasta on bread as is……………..
Tamra Phelps
Well, I’m a little worried about Kate not posting a comment for several days, but she did say there was internet issues a few days ago, so hopefully that’s the problem. Not a lot going on here, but I’m back on several antibiotics, so feeling blah just from them.
heather

Shelly Peterson
Today was a rough day. I am feeling really tired.
Sharon Rooney
It was a beautiful day here today almost 60 degrees.
Tamra Phelps
Well, that knot on my back that I thought might just be another lipoma is in fact an infection. Possibly faciitis. Turns out scar tissue can do that (I have scar tissue from when I was sick, spent months in a hospital bed.) So, antibiotics again.
gloria patterson
Got up early had a heart test scheduled just one of several test my dr makes me do ever year. It was at the hospital NO valet parking right now, and it is a big parking lot that fills up quickly nearest the hospital. Then looked at my paperwork and I was at the wrong end of the hospital. So moved over to that side and LUCKED out parking spot almost in front of the door. Apointment was for 8:45 and they want you to get their 15 minutes early just in case. They take me in at 9:15 Ever thing was good no problems showed up during test. One more test next month then I go to the Dr Hopefully that is it for the year LOL
Polly Hall
So far the day is going well, soon I will start the dutch oven bread to go with the soup I will be making for dinner.

Sharon Rooney
The weather here was nasty and raining but all in in all it was a good day. On the plus side it’s Friday and the weekend is here.

Michele Soyer
Back to normal today – need more coffee to get motivated to do the drawing room ceiling and vacuuming the walls…no matter how much i clean with 2 cats there tends to be hair everywhere!
Kate Sarsfield
What colour are they? Or as Mom would say: “What make are they”? It’s the Welsh equivalent of breed. Have to say that Idris’ black hairs hardly ever showed up, then again, he was a shorthair & loved being brushed. Dad died April 2015, Mom got her diagnosis in May & MeToo (my Siamese) died early June; I’m still finding his hairs in books and in seams of clothes!
Michele Soyer
Both of these cats are grey and white – they were abandoned barn cats that we rescued at 2 or 3 weeks syringe fed etc…now they are both BIG….
Tamra Phelps

I fell on my a** walking in the snow this morning, it still is very sore. The moral is not to use your garden cloggs to walk in the snow.

Basically, I did nada today. I started trying to make a few calls that I need to make but I got fed up with the ‘press 1 for>>>>>, press 2 for >>>>>’ nonsense. Doesn’t anyone just answer their phone anymore? I decided I was not in the mood for that today and put it off until tom morrow.

It was high of 22 when I left this morning at 7:30am. Had appointment to get a cortizone shot in my left wrist. After Dr pushed, poked and twisted he decided the shot was going in my thumb!!! OMG the wrist is a piece of cake but the thumb hurts like hell. Its a quick shot but it feels like hours.
While I was out made a few stops. I had not plans but………….. I stopped at a discount store and I kept finding stuff for great niece at a very cheap price. She is going to be excited when she sees it all.
Polly Hall

Busy time here. Yesterday evening drove one of the guys to hospital Accident & Emergency – he was in agony with a dental abscess. His whole face had swollen and, I kid you not, was green! Then took another to the nearest train station for 6.30 this morning, tried to get back to sleep but failed, so showered etc. then off to the house to start laying the floor insulation. Left the 2 guys there & headed for an appt. with my new Doc. & hit the charity shops! Bought a gorgeous soft faux fur scarf. Next, off to the pet shop for 2 cat collars with bells & ID tags, for the cats I don’t even have yet! All followed by 3 hours of cutting back/digging out brambles – phew!
heather
My day is going pretty good but I paid a bunch of bills and spent a little too much money at the grocery store so that all has me a little stressed out other than that I am good.

Decided to go out and clean the snow off my car since I have a early Dr apointment on Thursday. It was only a inch or so of snow but then it iced up. Took me over 30 minutes with car running and me pushing snow off and scrapping.
Made a quick stop at aldi and decided that I needed to just pick up some fast food for late/early dinner.
Kim Pincombe-Cole
