February Project Life!

What's that you say?

It is almost May?

But, it's not, yet.  :)

You may know that my husband had hip surgery Feb 24.  And has been on crutches or the ice machine since.  And I've been doing most of the cooking, cleaning, caretaking, etc since then.

***insert my high school swim coach's daily mantra/quote here:
"Excuses lessen the pain of failure, but never lead to success."

So I'll just say, I AM doing stuff.  Scrapbooking, cleaning (kinda), laundry (lotsa), and caretaking.  I just haven't blogged about it.  I apologize.  I know you've all been holding your breath out there in the interwebs.

So, here are my Project Life pages for February!!





I started getting the Studio Calico PL kit.  It is fun!  And probably WAY too much stuff.  I'm starting to hoard.  A little.





Week 9 began with surgery.  It went well, but recovery has been rough.  If you pray, maybe you could lift up my husband for his endurance in this recovery.  It is hard for both of us.




But I am so, SO grateful for today.  The sun is shining, I have some time to myself, and I am making cards and blogging and scrapbooking a little this morning.  I am healthy.  My family has shelter, water, clothing, and love.

What more could a girl ask for?

Haha.  A lot more, I guess.  Starts with L.  Ends with "ouis Vuitton" Ha.

But it wouldn't truly make me happy!

Only a little...


Totally grateful for what I have today,
Stacey

Whoopsie!

Hello Titus Park fans,

It looks like my personal email may have been forwarded to you all with the Summer Swim Lesson Flyer.  Aaaandddd you received this link to my blog accidentally!

Well, here is the actual flyer:



For those of you who have no idea what Titus Park is, try checking out their website HERE.

Before I was a mom/cook/chauffeur/maid I was a Recreation Director, and a swim coach.  I taught swimming lessons from the ripe age of 15, coached age group swimming, coached high school swim teams (even one season of water polo!), and ended up rewriting the swim program for the Soledad-Mission Recreation District.  

Fast forward to today, and I just wrapped up a week of training new swimming instructors for Titus Park.  I wrote the program, levels, and philosophies.  Unless, of course, you don't like them.  Then I had nothing to do with it at all.

Hope to see you on the pool deck this summer,
Stacey
