that I have been neglecting the blog lately. And well, its not that I've neglected it, its more that I have nothing to add to it. The Girl and I have had colds, hers progressed into an ear infection in each ear. Is this a milestone? Its her first official ear infection... also her first round of antibiotics. :( I broke C's work laptop... again. In August, I broke it by hitting the little tv stand type table that it was on which sent the laptop to the floor and caused the bulb in the monitor to bust, then the week before last I was vacuuming and again hit the table the laptop was on and sent it crashing to the floor this time causing damage to the power cord. We just got it back yesterday, so maybe I'll blog more than once every 2-3 weeks now that I can blog from anywhere in the house.
In an effort to bring more funds into the home I offered myself up as a babysitter to a girl who had a need.... and I'm scared to death! I start watching her 6 week old infant next Monday. We are going to see how well my girl can handle this. I'm not sure who's going to have more difficulty her or me!!! I've been thinking about how I won't be able to take my girl for walks in the stroller and I'm REALLY hating that!!! Going ANYWHERE is going to be super difficult. This babysitting thing is a Mon thru Fri, all day kind of gig too. Oh well. We'll just have to wait and see how it goes.
I'll catch you all later... I think I hear someone stirring! ;)

Let me show you some scrappy things.
A friend told me about a LSS (local scrapbook store) that does this page in a bag contest thing. Once a month they put together a bag w/ a few scrapping supplies in it, you have to come up w/ a page that uses at least some of all the things in the bag and you can add your own things to it if you want. You turn in the layout to them and there is a contest to win a gift card to the store. I've played the last 3 months (sorta. long story.) So I'm gonna show you my pages... and a card that I made that I totally stole the design idea from my friend, Reba! oh wait! can't show you the card for a few more days... I made it for someone that actually reads my blog!! lol
From what the store owner told me, this 1st page of mine almost won. oh well!
