YUP!! I'm excited

I got the big prize pack from the Imaginesce blog hop today...well everything but the cuttlebug machine and I already have one of those so I can still use the two paper lines, the embellishments and stamps to match as well as 12 embossing folders, 2 sets of embossing borders and 3 sets of cut and emboss dies that I am sitting at work drooling over!!!! Bonus is tomorrow is National Scrapbooking Day and I'm planning on doing a lot of challenges and fun tomorrow throughout the day. May start the day doing some close to home rummage saleing then be up and running by the 9:00 a.m. start time on sb.com

I do have lots of layouts to post eventually. Haven't had much down time at home to actually catch up here....but I will try to do that the first night it rains again and we don't have baseball games or graduations. The next week and a half is pretty crazy!!

WOW

How far behind am I??? I've been doing a lot of scrapping lately and cleaning and organizing in my scraproom. I have lots of layouts to post, just have to take the time of an evening to post them. I'll try and do that tonight....maybe.

March better come in like a Lamb











cuz I've had all the lion I want for a while LOL. Hi everybody....I'm back, for a few nights anyway. This week is district basketball so we have a game tomorrow night. If they win, then we have a game Thursday. If they win, we have a game on Saturday....and so on! It's March Madness in Missouri!








I did get to do some scrapping last night though. I did 4 pages in a little over 2 hours. I love layout kits. I also had one more simple layout I finished for Zane's album that I hadn't posted anywhere yet so I'll post it up here tonight.








Thanks for looking and hang in there........baseball games don't start hot and heavy until the first of April so maybe I can get some scrappin' done between now and then.

:sigh:

I'm tired, I'm cranky...........can I whine a little??

Life has been crazy with ballgames lately and I would love to just go home and sleep a few minutes and put my pj's on for about 3 days.

I'm behind on my blog, I haven't been on Scrappy Chic or sb.com in days, I miss my friends and I want some scrap time to destress and rejuvenate! We don't have ballgames for the next two nights but the house is a mess and laundry is behind again..........they tell me I'll look back in a few years and miss these days..........I'll miss some things but not the general upheaval of not being able to keep up with the little things in life.....like sweeping the floor.

Okay, whine and vent is over........back to work........spring is near - I hope!

I'm on a scrap high

31 pages in 2 days...yup yup...I'm on a scrap high!! My niece is caught up on everything that is printed. Already called my SIL and told her to get to printing. Only 24 layout kits in nephew's album and I'll need more to scrap..........if we have another blizzard................... (okay, not gonna go there)!
















Blizzard 2011 - Perfect Scrap Weather!

The Great Blizzard of 2011 - I found the silver lining to that cloud. I had ALL DAY to scrap since the bossman texted at 5:30 a.m. and said they were closing down today!! I did 22 pages in 12 hours - gotta love sketches. I won't hit you with all of them, just a few of my favorites for the day. I'm happy to report that I'm less than 6 months behind on my niece now and if they close down again tomorrow which is a realistic expectation at this point, I'll have her caught up to what is printed. I already told my SIL to start sorting through pics and get ready to print again! I may actually have her caught up for her birthday this year!

snow UHG!

The only good thing about snow is that hubby will probably put my counter up this weekend. Yes, I'm doing a little changing in the scraproom again.....the big table in there is just not working for me. I really love that table....it is the old table top from mom and dad's house when I was a kid, but it just isn't working for me...I've tried everything to make it work out and yes, I'm a little crazy and OCD but the counter I had looking out through the window into the living room just worked so much better but..................

I do have an idea to preserve the "feeling" that table gives off. I have to get some additional help from hubby to make it work but stay tuned....if it works like I want it to, I'll post the results LOL.

I hope to get to do some scrapping this weekend but it is already filling up pretty fast so we'll see. We are on hold over the basketball games tonight at this point because it is snowing again. If they get cancelled, the counter top will go up tonight so I might actually get to work in there while doing laundry tomorrow....cross your fingers for me.
