I have three of Richard Carlson's books "Don't Sweat The Small Stuff..." and find his words have been helping a lot in getting me to relax even with all the stress in my life! Your card is wonderful. I love the CAS style and beautiful colours!

So I'm not the only one who has those "crazy mom" times????? It will get better, it always does! I just heard on the news that February is typically our snowiest month and my heart sank...really? more snow? Anyway, I'm glad you found a little stamping solace, your card is beautiful as always :)Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01336092235876386585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1013801691278378572.post-27844533321735807862011-01-27T23:54:40.645-05:002011-01-27T23:54:40.645-05:00aw, sweetie...we all have weeks like that...I usua...aw, sweetie...we all have weeks like that...I usually warn Tony and my class that I'm "cranky" and leave it at that!

I stumbled upon your blog and your creat...Hi, Lynn! I stumbled upon your blog and your creations are all beautiful! And hey, I think we both live in the Cincy area!<br />I feel your pain! I have three boys and between snow days, MLK day, teacher inservice days both Monday and tomorrow...I am a bit frazzled and grumpy with them, too. I had a not so very "mommy" moment yesterday, blew a fuse and apologized profusely for it. It still makes me feel rotten, but we are human, and I was forgiven!<br />Here is hoping for better days! I think making a "thankful" list is important to do. It reminds us what is really important and just how lucky and blessed we are! :)Emily (stampingout on SCS)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16829013485372271052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1013801691278378572.post-31322510495989895202011-01-27T18:39:14.432-05:002011-01-27T18:39:14.432-05:00Love backhanded compliments...

It's so easy to get caught up in the emotions of each moment. We all have those "mom" moments and thank goodness our children don't define us by those moments! I'm glad you found some time to just be and to do your favorite stress-relieving activity -- stamping! Your card is fabulous! Thanks for spending some stress-free moments with the Operators this week!
