My first attempt at scrapbooking...

I started a book for Gabby...Gabby from just before birth to 1-year old. I haven't gotten very far. P-Dub thinks I like buying and organizing scrapbooking materials more than I like actually doing it...maybe so, but, I have accomplished a few pages.

I scanned these in while they were still in the album...not very smart, I know, but I didn't think about it till after I was done. AND...you only get to see a little bit because the pages are 12X12 and I can't scan the entire thing.

The theme is a little haphazard right now...I'm still trying to find my 'groove' or whatever it's called in scrapbooking. I have learned, rather quickly, that I'm better at 'BLING' than I am at 'cutesy'.

The Cover

Page...zero? This page is all alone. I tried with the following pages to have things flow between the page on the left and the page on the right...

Page 1

Page 2

Page 3

Page 4

Page 5

Page 6

Page 7

Page 8

Page 9

Page 10

WOW! Ten pages...ok, eleven, since Christmas...guess I do like the shopping and organizing part the best!!! I've been doing lots of stuff though...like redecorating my apartment. I'll post pics of those next.

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...
WTF? God, I feel great. I am a typical cancer (please refer back to this ). "At times you will seem to have the greatest love for life, yet at others you can be nothing but a self-pitying mess. You can be pleasant and cheerful, or you can be egotistical and vain." Yep, that's me! So, now comes the part where I have a great love of life. And isn't it sad that it stems from feeling secure that someone likes me? One final down...3 more to go! I can't wait for this semester to be over. It has been really hard. Really it was last Spring semester that was really hard, and almost killed me...and that semester seems to have put me in burnout mode for this past semester. But, next semester is new, and will probably kill me with how busy I'll be since I go back to work full-time in the Spring...but as much as I complain...I like being busy, busy, busy! Off to see Aaron the Beast in a couple of hours. Didn't have time to shave my legs this morning. ...
