Sorry about not posting yesterday, it turned out to be one of those days that was crammed so full that getting to the time for posting didn't come until late at night...so I decided to wait until today.

Speaking of last night, my Vikings just weren't up to winning.  Some thing happened to that team during the last two games...just not sure what.

We brought in several more boxes to be opened, cleaned and organized.  Over a dozen.  Should be interesting.  I am also going to begin packing away the Christmas Decorations in the upstairs today.  

I made a big batch of chili and corn bread yesterday so leftover are on tap for today's dinner.  I just got notice that my glasses are ready to be picked up.  I think I will wait until tomorrow.

Over the weekend, I did have fun making an envelope journal.  The front and back are shown.



I began with a folder cut down to the size that fit the number of envelopes used.  You will see on the front (top picture) I used three envelop flap with the rest of the envelope folded to the back of the front page.  On the back (second picture) I used an envelope without the flap.

The next two pictures show the writing tags in both the front and back...




In the next set of pictures you will first see the envelope journal open, the next picture shows the open journal with the right flap open with the writing card from the right flap.  The third picture shows the open journal with the left flap open and the fourth picture is of the left flap with the writing journal in that flap...




This picture shows the middle two center envelope flaps opened.  The second picture shows the envelope flaps open along with the note books contained in those envelopes...



The final set of pictures show the left envelope flap opened again.  The second picture shows the flap open along with a drop down area to write in...



That's a lot of pictures.  I did have fun making this envelope journal.  Something a bit different than a regular journal.  

I posted both yesterday's and today's prompt for 'Getting it Together'.  Looks like I have to get things together myself.  Hopefully, this will be the last time I skip a post.

Any plans for the day?  Mine are packing up boxes (Christmas) and opening up more boxes (from storage)...not too exciting.  Hope your plans are a bit more stimulating.  

That's all for now...
Talk with you tomorrow...
