Weekends can be busy at my house. All three of my kids are involved in sports and weekends often mean travelling to tournaments out of town.
I was grateful that I was going to be home this weekend and planned to set aside minimum of one hour on Sunday afternoon and dedicate that time to my learning project, but let’s back up to Friday… my daughter fell ill with a stomach bug Friday night through Saturday morning which meant added loads of laundry and just being way more tired than usual.
Cue Sunday – did somebody say SNOWSTORM?! How about we dedicate some time to digging out from the snow that fell overnight Saturday and do some touch-ups throughout the day Sunday. By Sunday afternoon, I really wasn’t feeling well. I tried to deny it as long as I could, but one of my sons fell ill and then it was my turn. So, forget dedicating Sunday afternoon to my learning project!
My school division was named in the rotating strike scheduled for Monday, March 4. Instead of walking in solidarity, I write this post curled up in my bed hoping that tomorrow I will feel well enough to go back to school.
Unfortunately, after the health and weather we were dealt at the end of the week and throughout the entire weekend, I have no progress to update you on. Instead, I will leave you with a collection of photos that I’ve gathered that provided me with some inspiration and am hoping that this week is a better one, in many different senses!

I snagged this screenshot and thought I had also saved the facebook page to be able to contact the creator of these simple, adorable earrings. Unfortunately, I did not save the name. I do know that the phone number listed on the card is for a city in Quebec. I love the simplicity of these earrings with the cute little beads and flowers. I want to try out a similar design, but will need to find the long, cylindrical beads before embarking on the bee journey!
Hi Chantelle,
That was quite hectic weekend for you dealing with sickness & weather issues. It happens sometimes when you plan goes against of something, you’ve decided. Weather wasn’t very friendly in many areas though, this weekend.
I hope you have a relaxing coming weekend & good luck to create your beautiful earings.

Thank you, Uzma.
Often times in life, the best laid plans just don’t turn out as planned! But, that is life and we are equipped with resiliency and understanding for a reason!
I am so glad the weather has decided to warm up and the snow is disappearing quite quickly now although I know there is still lots of time left for a pesky spring snowstorm!
