Updates

Since it has been forever since I posted, I figured it is time to give a long rambling update. Well, let's see how long this is. ;) And of course it has to be in list form, since I love my lists. :)

I decided to change my template today. Since I updated to blogger beta I changed the color sheme from the default template. I love my pink. :)

Speaking of pink and black I'm working on a pink & black christmas tree.

Since the other scrapbook store closed, I found a new home so to speak. TJ's Pictures and Papers. *Awesome* store. Lots of papers and products I have never seen around here, the latest and greatest so to speak. And the owners are amazing. So nice and one of them Jackie, always asks what I'm working on and to bring what I'm working on in. Great customer service. I can't wait to take classes there. :) I still don't know about cropping there since I would have to actually pack all my stuff up and I make such a huge mess when I scrap.

I'm back to being creative again. I have so many new ideas and things I want to try. I wish I could quit my job and just create and craft all day. That would be heaven.

Jason's surgery on his hand went well and he is getting his stitches taken out today.

I've been moody and crabby lately. And my period is late, after being on time for the last couple months. And before you ask, yes I did take a pregnancy test, and it came back negative. I don't know what's going on with that.

My weightloss is in a lull. I haven't been very good about tracking what I eat, and I'm getting to the point where I just want to throw my hands up and say whatever. But the other part of me wants to keep losing and be a sexy wife for my husband. :) So I'm going to keep plugging away at it, and will be better at it. :)

I really want a treadmill so I can exercise at home. I put it on my Christmas list, now let's see if I get one. I'm guessing not....but I'm still crossing my fingers.

I hate making Christmas lists for other people. I mainly want scrapping stuff, but even if I get specific, no one really wants to buy it.

I suggested drawing names next year for Jason's family, and Jason talked to his brothers and sisters, and that is what we will be doing. YAY! I'm surprised it went over so well. Everyone seemed almost relieved. Glad it worked out. :)

I'm in the Christmas mood. Buying presents, making presents, working on Christmas crafts, even if this time of the year is so hectic I love it.

I will admit that I have already listened to Christmas music!

My scrapping room isn't going to be done by December 1. :( I'm working on packing some of my stuff up so we can have a Christmas tree in the living room. I've packed 9 paper boxes of stuff so far and barely made a dent. I've got a long way to go......I am going to go through my stuff once my room is done and will be posting some stuff for sale again on Scrappy Chic. I really need to pare down.

I realized the other day that my birthday in January is going to be my golden birthday. I will be 24 on the 24th. Gosh, I'm getting old!

I'm going to attempt to sew and make curtains for my scrapping room. Ma, be prepared for phone calls, LOL. I need to find fabric first. :) Who knows, maybe I will be a sewer after all, lol.

I want to be a better sewer so I can make quilts for the house. Nothing compares to wrapping up in a quilt at night or watching tv wrapped up in a homemade quilt. Those store bought blankets just don't do it for me.

I can't wait to start wrapping Christmas presents! I love wrapping presents. Christmas music going in the background. So perfect!

If anyone knows where I can get the Creative Imaginations collections Lovestruck, Skull & Crossbones, Caution Boy, and Caution Girl, I would be eternally greatful! I need all of these collections!

I miss blogging. I should do it more.
