As of yesterday, all the kids in the Dera household were back at school.  Shelby gets out on Tuesday at 11:15, so the quiet is really short lived, but it’s nice to have a moment to actually hear myself think.  Then noon hit and I see the school calling on the caller id… never a good sign!  Dylan has a tummy ache the secretary says, so off I go to pick one up.  At that point I was fairly certain he was faking, but had I left him and he got really sick, I’d feel pretty bad about it.  Well about an hour later, after realizing if you are too sick to be at school, then you are too sick to come home and play, he asked to go back.  HA HA

I’ve managed to get a lot done already this week.  The cards newsletter went out Monday night, and I’ve posted some of the extra card samples for the January kit in the store.  Being I’ve been keeping up with the laundry so well, I’ve had some extra time to create, and that’s a great feeling!

Here is another peek, (head to the store for a bigger image):

That’s all for today, I’m about to head out to take Shelby to preschool and then I have to make a trip to Archivers to pick up some Copics for a class I’ll be taking on Saturday at Scrap Tales in Brighton.  I’m excited about a night out on the town, lol.
