Proof I don't just buy scrapbook supplies...


See I really do use those supplies that I just seem to keep buying up...unfortunately not as fast as I would like, as I don't always have much time to work on my stuff. But I participated in a card swap this month and had to make 11 cards to send out...yikes! I started Friday night...whew...I made it! Plus I did make 2 other LO's for a DT entry that I am trying for...so for the week all in all I have been pretty productive...I hope it continues as I have to make a 50th Anniversary album for my in-laws. The party is next Saturday night!! I am planning on starting that tomorrow!
I was just looking at the preview of this post and I about died laughing at this pictures...what was I thinking? I didn't crop the pic and you can see my coaster and number pad...ah proof that I do actually work for a living too!!

Woo Hoo...I have been scrapbooking!!



Yea! Last weekend I got to participate in a cyber crop at 2SD's and got some great challenge ideas and this week I am working on a DT entry (sorry can't post any of those LO's yet) but I am still getting to scrapbook! This busy season has gotten me so down that I just haven't been able to enjoy scrapbooking...I am so glad I am out of the funk!

Then this week it was so exciting to watch 2Peas as all the HOFer's were being called, it got me really excited to actualy get off my duff and submit...so we will see what happens. I think the one thing I could say about all the entries for HOF is that they actually tried...even though it wasn't their year they still tried...and for some they had been trying for years and finally got in this year...they didn't give up the continue on...don't give up...don't stop trying...do your best and be proud you showed up to play!! I vow not to get discouraged, to be a warrior and not give up...to keep pressing forward and to keep believing...I will draw my strength from above and He will not let me down...ooooo...it feels so good to feel good again!!

TGIF...almost!

I am so looking forward to a weekend...but unfortunately I will be working again this weekend...not sure I am going to work from home or actually go to work...it depends on when Dwain goes to his auction. I so can't wait for March 15th...I know you're saying "don't you mean April 15th?"...but since I am in the Accounting Services department all of my clients are businesses...honestly once March 15th comes and goes I will still be busy catching up! Ah...job security...!

I had this website bookmarked for sometime but just yesterday went and spent some time there in the shop and on the MB...it seems like a really great place! I love the store...some really cools items that I can't find locally...gotta love it...It's called Scrap Happy KT...you should try it!

I am so loving my re-decorated scrap area...sadly it's not as clean as the pics I posted earlier...that's ok...that means I am scrapping...yes I am actually working on a LO right now...it feels so good to actually be excited about scrapbooking again! I hate the blahs! Have a great weekend everyone and go ILL-INI!!

It's March!!

Yipee! I am so excited, we have seen the sun now for 2 days straight!! Still pretty busy at work, but things are starting to get more managable...girls are great! For those of you who don't know...I am going to be a grandmother in September...a very young grandmother! In fact I decided today that I don't want to be called grandma, I want to be called Nana...I love that name!

Dwain helped me with my scrapbook room last week...




finally I have some shelves put up and we cleared out the closet so I bought a unit to put in it for my printer and scanner(below) and now I just need one more shelf in there...it's really made for more work space...










love the unit...it's pretty cool! It's meant to go in the corner of a closet and it's even stackable!

Now maybe I can get some scrapbooking done...I actually started a LO yesterday I am hoping to finish up tonight! That is if I can stay awake...I have been pretty tired lately! Lots of stress...though things seem to be calming down!
