Mini Album Block

I have been working on this mini album as a gift and it is really coming out very well, little slow getting it done as I don't get allot of time to sit and scrap but that is okay I do what I can. I am working on the cover to the album now and I am a little stumped so I need a little time to think, collect a few thoughts, a few imagines in my head and than I will run with it. Once I am all done I will take some pictures so I can upload them into the gallery on the Chalet. This is a program that I am proud of, will I am proud of all that I do in scrap booking this is just a different project and it's for a very special friend and I am looking forward to giving it to her. Will I am going off to bed so I can get those thoughts going and see what happens, tomorrow is another day and hopefully that creative mind will be in play and I will be on a roll again........................

Shopping with Chester

What wonderful weather we had today, the sun was shining and it was 50 degrees, so it was time for an outing, so we was off. Chester and I got ourselves ready took the camera for a just in case moment and hit the road we was headed for Waterville Maine.
First stop I had to get my ice coffee at DD in Manchester and 2 munchkins for the boy than we was on the road made as far as Sears than we had to make a pit stop for the boy, he was uncomfortable so we had to take our first walk, back in the car and we was off again, made to the other side of Augusta and another pit stop had to get gas, as usual Paul use the car and it was almost on empty, what's new. Well, we are tanked up and ready to go, we are off again finally on our way on 95 headed north towards Waterville things are good. Finally we are at Wal-mart to pick up what is needed than off to Caswell's for a few supplies than we went back to the other side of Waterville to stop in a big parking lot to go for a nice long walk which was so nice. We both enjoyed it very much, and it seem so nice to be able to get out without freezing. After walk I went down to JoAnn's and done a little clearance shopping picked up a few little items than back on the road to home headed south bound. It was a really good day for the both of us just to get out of the house and be able to take a few walks and do a little shopping.

Wednesday Morning

Well it's been awhile since I have stopped by and drop a few lines, so I thought I would. I have been kind of behind in getting my layouts done; have had allot of ideals in my head and the minute I sit down my mind goes blank, I guess this where my journal would come in handy. I think allot when I am driving but to tell you the truth it is not good to write and drive at the same time, I do believe that cops to frown upon this. The action on the Chalet site turned out awesome the amount raised was $498.00 and the ladies got allot of beautiful items including myself. The action was held for one of our fellow scrappers, she has a daughter that has an illness which I truly am not sure of all the details but I know she will have to have operations for awhile and she is very young. My heart just goes out to Tracelyn and her family. Live can be so sad in so many ways, one just never knows, I guess if we did we would go out of our way to try to avoid all these situations.

Action on Chalet

Oh, we have been having a ball on the Chalet. Laura has allowed Kat to have an action for one of the ladies that belongs to the Chalet site who's child is very ill and has had numerous operations. I feel so bad she so young. There are approximately 20 items that we are bidding on and believe me we women when we see something and we want it we go for it. hehehe............it's fun thou. It makes you feel good to help someone that is so totally not excepting it but can use it. My heart aches for the family, no one wants to see there child go though anything like this. Oh, I won layout of the day on the 14Th of March with a picture of Selina and Zoe. One day soon I will learn how to put pictures on my site so you can all see them so you will know what I am referring too. Will I finally finished up my recipe cards for the swap I was entered into with 7 other ladies, I will be putting them in the mail tomorrow and sending them to Elise in AZ. I must say it was fun but I have got to slow down from entering too much right now because I have too much other scrapping too do and I don't like being over whelmed. Will I guess I am caught up for now so I will scrap on and wait for another layout to come along....................

Walmart Special

Today I had to do something that I truly do not enjoy at all, go to Walmart. Well I was in need of allot of cleaning supplies and pet supplies anyway just things that I normally to get at this place of madness. I have never gone to Walmart when the parking lot did not have at least 400 vehicles in it and the store itself twice the amount. This just is not my type of shopping, I would rather go to the dentist...........Really I would rather be shopping for scrap booking supplies........

Another Sunday

Today was a beautiful day weather wise and it did seem good after such a cold spell. Well I manage to only get three recipe cards scraped and I have four more left to do for the recipe swap that eight of us ladies are doing on the Chalet site; I am going to finish them up tomorrow so I can mail them off on Wednesday. I did go into the Garden Island this afternoon and tan and washed up my comforter and two big blankets. I went over to the Chalet and picked up my March kits and I am so looking forward to working with them I can not wait to get my recipe cards done. I had printed off some pictures of Selina that I think are going to go so well with the martini kit. Well that is about it for me until I get some scraping done.
Farwell................for now............

Scrapping Afternoon

Oh, I finally made a little head way today on my scrap booking layouts, I managed to start two and in hopes to finish them up tomorrow and get started on another. I have a recipe swap going on to that has to be to Elise by March 20Th, which I have my recipes all typed out in the computer all I have to do is print them and fancy them up and send them off in the mail. I did not get started until late this afternoon with my projects but I did get allot done for what time I scrapped. I am looking forward to when I learn to load them on my blog it will make it more interesting. Paul and I went out for a late lunch today and than picked up a few things at the grocery store than I got home in my comfort zone and able to have my time for a change and it seem good as I have not had it this time for about a week or more and I truly missed it. Well I have to get Chester off the couch and get him outside and than we are off to bed, tomorrow is Sunday and we have to get up early and getting ready for church.

Design Team of the Chalet

I had to come back to my blog and jot down a few things. I was just reading in one of my past notes I posted. I had decided against applying for the Chalet design team at this time. I feel I still have allot to learn and I have things in scrap booking that I want to try and put on paper and show and right now I do not feel I am ready for a step that huge. I must say that we do have an incredible Design Team on the Scrapbook Chalet, these ladies rock, there designs are awesome. We are going to have ladies that will be doing cards and sketches and guest designers for each month. I know I sound just like a kid in a candy store with my hand in the candy jar, but I am excited. I wished I had my smiley's in here to use on my blog. I am trying to type and watch this movie on television with Matt Damon and Brendan Fraser in it, it's based back in 1955 but was made in 1992 and it's good, so if this does no sound like it made since watch the movie School Ties.

March 1st

Can you believe it! Where does the time go. Since I have retired my days go by so fast I just can not keep up. I got up this morning and done some house cleaning and paid the bills for the month had a late lunch than took a nap and than my shower and it is 10:30 at night. Well I am sure there was allot of other things I did in there as well but too many to name them all. I haven't done any scrap booking in a week now, however I did manage to print off some pictures last night so I am in hopes to get some scraping done here tomorrow and over the weekend. I have been wanting to get into my blog and write before now and here it is the first of a new month already. I have had allot going on lately with Chester, his leg as been bother him and he is limping, I hope it gets better soon as it really is bothering me. I love him so much and I would never want anything to happen to my little guy. My friend Kathy sent be some pictures of her sweet little princess goddess and I am going to scrap book them and start an album for Kathy of Selina. The pictures that Kathy sent me truly shows that she had a super time on her school vacation. Kathy and Mike really have missed her allot since she moved to her grandmothers, so I am glad she came to spend the week with them because they really love her allot. I printed allot of Paul's pictures of when he was a small child, so I would have them to scrap as well and also so he would have them as he does not have any pictures of when he was younger, so they should be really interesting to scrap. Well I am not going to try and catch up for all the time I lost in one night so I am going to save some for another night or day whatever the case may be, hopefully it won't be a month away.
