I couldn't get rid of the crib

I'm not sure what that really means, today when I was cleaning out the garage (read last post) I found it hard to part with my Abby's crib. You know how sometimes despite what you try tell yourself or convince yourself in your heart you know the reason . . . well I know the reason I am not ready to give up on growing my family. I don't dare share that sentiment with my family (Mom, aunts, uncles, etc.)they look at me like I have a horn growing out of my head so I will share it with you my one reader ;-). I don't want to have any more of my own, well that's not entirely true it would be nice to have another child of our own BUT I really want to adopt. I think for our family 3 children of our own is adequate but this whole thing is not that simple, I am not quite done babying my Abigail (she will be 3 in August). I won't get into the many reasons I don't think we are ready I just think we need a little more time. Who knows when the time will be right it may never be, what I do know is that I couldn't get rid of the crib. So I leave you with lyrics that seem to fit:

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

These lyrics are from the song The Calling by Regina Spektor

I'm beat!

Hi there!

So I spent the morning cleaning out the garage, it needed to be done, luckily the kids are on vacation so they did most of the heavy lifting. WE HAVE SOOO MUCH STUFF!! All I was really able to do today was organize it so that I can go through the boxes one at a time (YAY ME!) So I am off to design for my upcoming classes and the San Diego Retreat in August.

Clearance sale pushed back.

First let me say I have way more page kits than I thought so obviously this is not getting listed at least not this morning. I will keep you posted on what I have available in the coming days. One thing I DO know is that I have WAY TOO MUCH. Check back soon! Thanks

Page layout kits clearance sale

I need to make some room, so starting on Monday i will post pictures of page layout kits that will be for sale. (there might even be some other projects). That means that individual pages from many of my 10 pages classes will be for sale, prices will range from $2.00 ($1.00 a page) to $4.00 ($2.00 per page)per set of 2 pages. This will not include any of the pages from upcoming classes, ONLY pages and projects from classes prior to Monday. I will post more details soon.

Upcoming Class at Collective Journey

These are 2 of the layouts that we are doing for the 10 pages in 3 hours class this month at Collective Journey. Click on the class calendar to the right to see more.

I haven' t really been trying

What does that even mean?? Well to the few people that may stumble onto my blog probably nothing this is more of note to myself than it is of any value to you (my one reader ;-).

So there you have it a piece of weird randomness coming out of my brain an onto my computer, this is almost as odd as my statement this past weekend to Lucy & April (they took my class at the Scrapbook Garden) about not liking the position of the sun in the afternoons. I don't know why but something about angle of the sun and the shadows it produces int he afternoon really bugs me. Ok so for those of you who think I am totally crazy = you are probably right. Have a good night !!

Right Angle Rut

Yup I am in a right angle rut, I get so stuck sometimes when I am creating. I finished my pages for my upcoming 10 pages in 3 hours class at Collective Journey and then decided I didn't like them and started over. I can't help it sometimes I get sick of looking at the same layouts, my mind tends to be drawn towards the same design over and over and over again. Oh well all I need is a little inspiration and I will be back on track. . . .

Cool Class this weekend @ Ever After

Hi Everyone check out my class calendar for upcoming classes in June!

June Calendar

I'm not always nice but I am kind

It's funny that I post this because, I don't always think I am nice, I think I can be quite serious, grouchy, and moody...Yes I am all of these things but I am kind, I hate to see people hurt and I hate to see people in pain, no matter how my views may differ from that of another person I will always choose humanity over idealism. So anywhoo while blog hopping I cam across this awesome site Operation nice , I love it because it strives to promote all that is good, the big and little things. I have been needing this for awhile, I like hearing about people being good to other people. We live in a world of reality show overload and tabloid trash, I do find it quite disturbing (I know that this is a guilty pleasure to many of my friends, don't worry i still love you and I won't hold it against you). It seems every time you turn on the TV some new brand of reality TV nonsense has sprung up. (BREATHING 10, 9 , 8 , 7 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) Ok sorry I was getting a bit worked up there. The point is its nice to see people putting the good stuff on display! Be sure to check it out! Have a good night!
