Scrapbooking


Okay I have found a new love in my life. Scrapbooking, and everything that comes with it. I am in the making of 4 books, a book for me and Chuck, from dating til now, a book for each of my kids, Bailey and Peyton and a small book from when me and my sister were in Dance together. Now I am finding that you can do so much more than scrapbooking books, but picture frames, cards (I made a card for my moms Birthday) and just so muuch more. My good friend Lia from work used to be a scrapbooking "Goo Roo" and she has been giving me tubs of her stuff that she doesn't want or use anymore. Even a tub of scrapbooking magazines that I have all the time in the world to look at and I think I am going to take ideas from each book and try to recreate them myself. I love it. Chuck on the other hand thinks its just more clutter that we dont need. Well Bring On The Clutter!!! Here are some picks of my organizers that I got from Target and some brown little pull out drawers that a drug rep brought pens in to work and was throwing these away, I told her I wanted them to put some stuff in, I can put ribbon, brads, buttons, and even small stamps. I am taking the insides out and puting in Border paper in the insides, I have a picture of the before and after as well. I love this stuff!!!

Cell Phones


Okay so last week I went to a church softball game for my husband and when I got home I couldn't find my cell phone anywhere. It was driving me crazy, cause I actually use my cell for a lot of things. I use it for an Alarm Clock cause I tend to sleep through my real alarm clock so I have to set them both (drives my husband crazy), I also use it to know when to clock in and out of my lunch cause I will forget, and I use it to check my myspace cause my computer is so slow and I love to play bejeweled on it when I'm board. I felt so lost with out it. I was so sad!!! So on Sunday I went to the gargage to do a load of laundry and "Thank the Heavens" my alarm was going off and I knew I had found it. It was in a little bag in the lawn chair I was sitting in at the game. Before I had found it, I had searched High and Low at the baseball field and even... the garbage. Ewwww. I was afraid that Peyton thought it would be funny to throw away mommies cell. So now I dont have to ground him forever. I just dont know what I would do with out my cell phone. Its so weird... we used to not have to worry about these things and now there attached to our hips and we cant live with out them. Technology ... hmm... is it good or bad? The world may never know!!!

Well tomorrow is my Birthday, and at this moment I am sick with the stomach flu. Not Fun!!! Plus I am working right now just trying to get through my day. Its horrible. We are supposed to go out to a nice Mexican resturaunt for tomorrow and I am feeling like Crap!!! Well please pray for me to feel better, I dont want to feel like this on my Birthday. I want to feel like a young, energetic 25 year old (thats pushing it a little). Its so wierd. I was always used to being the baby, the youngest, now I am half a century old. Sheesh. Time sure does fly. I am going to miss being the baby. Well Happy Birthday to me!!!
