ReplyDeleteWhat a cute cartridge! I can see so many possibilities for it. Thanks, Joy, for your giveaways and all your wonderful inspiration.
ReplyDeleteMy goal is to finish moving this summer. Thank you for the chance to win this cartridge. And thank you for sharing with us all.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have a goal for the summer until you asked. My goal is to clean up my craft room. Thank you for the great tips, projects and coupons, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute cartridge, with some really useful images! Goals for this summer are to get daily exercise, and to tend to my flowers.
ReplyDeleteGoals for the summer are to craft Christmas gifts and birthday cards I need through the end of the year!!
ReplyDeleteInteresting question....Haven't given a lot of thought. I think I'll finish the books I keep meaning to get around to read.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win a cartridge. Lori G in CNY
Best of luck at teaching your daughter to drive. Here in Central TX I do believe that if they are not enrolled in a driving program or class they will have to take the driving test in car at the driver license bureau whereas if they take a driving program or class the driving test is included in the program as well as the written test they have to take. In my opinion it made for less time waiting at the driver license bureau in which the wait time is ridiculous most times.
ReplyDeleteWent to JoAnns to use my 50% off coupon that came in the flyer wanting to buy an embossing buddy but they did not have one. Went to Michaels and bought a Michaels anti static bag (same thing as an embossing buddy) and used Michaels 50% off coupon. Was surprised that the item was $5.99 reg because I figured it would be $2.99 like red adhesive tape, foam squares, etc. since it is a small item.
On way home a duckling was crossing the street. I slowed down & the duckling walked slowly and continued across the other side as well. Was glad that I did not have to hit brakes hard, that the car behind me was able
to slow down without hitting me and that the cars in other direction were slowing down for it to cross completely to other side.

I haven't seen that cart before, I know I will need to get one of those. I see a lot of cuts that I could use. Thank you for the coupons, it's nice to have them in the same place. I used to be a driving instructor, just be calm and remember to say correct instead of right because they will turn right when you don't want her to. There is a funny story behind that one but I know you can figure it out. Just make it a memory!
ReplyDeleteI hope to organize my craft room....if that is even possible!!!! Also to get a head start on Holiday cards!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all you share with us.

Goals for this summer is finishing unfinished projects both outside and in.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the coupon - rearrange my craftroom!!!
ReplyDeleteGetting my daughter ready to go away to college! Good luck with the driving lessons!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the coupons!
ReplyDeleteGoals for the summer: driver's ed for my son (yes, we're dealing with that too!), training for the dog we just adopted, and hopefully go on a getaway with our family (still trying to figure that one out, since we just it our dog).
Thanks for the Explore tips as I am still learning to use it. My goal for the summer is to keep my garden alive with the drought we are having in CA.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the lucky duck, Joan Smith! My goal for the summer is to organize my craft room, and be able to use what I already have. I'm so bad about buying stuff, and then finding I already had it! Thanks, Joy, for all your postings with creative projects, current coupons, generous giveaways, and CTMH offerings.
ReplyDeleteMy goal for the summer is to finish the organization of my scrapbooking craft room and my dollhouse miniature supplies. I've made a good start so far!

You are a brave woman. I still remember trying to teach my oldest son to drive and that was 20 years ago. I don't know if you still have to parallel park but we had some dented trashcan after using them as parking space markers. This summer I hope to finish a scrapbook for our favorite winery, make cards and do some day trips. Thank you for your tips, coupons and giveaways. Enjoy your summer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the coupons! I also have a child who's learning to drive. I guess my goal this summer is to survive that. Thanks for the chance to win this cartridge!
ReplyDeleteOh, my son is learning to drive this summer too--he really needs to get his license. I'm trying to leave the teaching to my husband though :)
ReplyDeleteSummer is always going to Myrtle Beach and visiting my sons and my grandchildren. Thank goodness, my children are way past the learn to drive stage. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi Joy....I want to concentrate on organizing my sewing/craft/relaxing EVERYTHING room for the summer. I really enjoy your posts. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI love all of your giveaways. Thanks
ReplyDeleteGoal for summer is to continue to organize my home.
ReplyDeleteEvery summer I teach my grand daughters (the 4 older ones) canning and freezing fresh veggies from the garden and fresh fruit. We've done many types of jellies, jams, pickles, green beans, made and canned spaghetti sauce, freeze qts. and qts. of sweet corn and my list continues to grow. (There are 10 children in their family). I love it and they love it. They always take many pictures as we work for their scrap books to pass on to their children some day... I love it and they love it, and of course, their brothers love it, too!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I need to get an iPad and a new explore!
Thanks so much for the coupons! My goal for the summer is to get ready for a big trip to the West Coast this fall.

Good luck with teaching your daughter how to drive, my youngest just got his license last month so I know exactly what you're going through. This summer I just want to enjoy scrapbooking all of the pictures I have from so many fun events over the past few months.
ReplyDeleteMy goal for this summer is to get to the beach more often and to also clean out all my closets and donate clothes we are no longer wearing.
ReplyDeleteLeslie
cute cartridge. My summer goal is to get the garage organized
ReplyDeleteMy son starts middle school in the fall and will be home alone for few hours twice a week, so I am teaching him how to cook so he can have supper started before I get home. Also trying to organize our garage to the chagrin of my hubby.
ReplyDeleteLove the cartridge and the Nifty Fiftys Layout. Give us more scrapbook pages. Thanks for the giveaways.
ReplyDeletethank you for sharing i so love your emails
ReplyDeleteThanks for the coupons, Joy! Thanks for the current ipad information. Even though i don't have an ipad at the moment, it is good to know i can incorporate it into my Cricut when i update it. Love new links to check out as well.
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome. Love your blog!
Hi Joy, Thank you for all the great ideas as usual. I have always thought you were very talented and now I have to add brave to that description. Good luck on teaching your daughter to drive. I know she is excited to be learning. I remember those days. It was the first thing we had to do as each of our kids got older. I guess it is part of letting them be more independent and letting them go a little. :( (Sort of like a rite of passage) Mine are all grown and have families of their own but I still miss the little people they were. Have a great week and thank you for the chance to win a great cartridge!
ReplyDeleteThis summer is going to be a relaxing time at home mostly. We are empty nesters this year so we are working on repainting the empty bedroom and I get to fix it up with what I want in there!!
ReplyDeleteGet a book written.
ReplyDeletethanks for the update with the explore. As of now my summer goal is to keep up with preserving the bountiful vegetables coming from my garden. Canned pickled beets yesterday and today did salsa
