Finally Friday (again!)
This photo is of my friend, Margie Romney Aslett, (sorry margie if I spelled it wrong) she taught the "Let's Get Cheeky", class at my lss last week...isn't she a doll? And fun!!! She works for Making Memories, and designed the whole Let's Get Cheeky line for them! Oh my goodness, what a week! Besides recovering from Creative Escape (if you haven't read all the posts and blogs, look here) www.creativeescapeaz.com...this was the first week I carpooled with my hubby to work. Can you say
TIRED , he likes to leave .... yes leave the house at 5:30
a.m. , I am not a morning person, really I am not.... so I got up at the crack of dawn, and went to work everyday this week. Then two nights we had a chiro appt so I was home late, late, late. Seriously, I am thinking of moving closer to work....I am waiting for some software, so I was able to go in later today (gee I still have energy tonight) and make a short day of it... still have 39.5 hours, wow!! It will be nice to have two days off... the CKC convention is in town, so I will be downtown tomorrow... helping Shelby at the embellish it booth, hope to see you there! (but not at 5:30 a.m.)
Until next time...
Tomorrow Creative Escape starts!!! I have been working practically non-stop on this since April, and
and now it is here...wow! I will see some old friends, meet some new ones and share my passion for everything scrapping with 600 other people,
(mostly women)! I will get to see some of the generous souls who donated to this event, and see the looks on people's faces when they see all of the goodies they are getting! Wow!
How great is my weekend going to be? Plus,I am taking a class tonight at my lss with Margie Romney-Aslett,
seriously, I just don't think things could be better this week! Sunday I will take some much needed rest, or perhaps go cropping with a friend...If you've never taken one of Margies classes, by all means, do so, she rocks! Tonight we are
getting cheeky!!Oh, and Paula, I have your plaque, you know the one you told me to guard with my life, I will have it with me tomorrow!
Last night I went shopping for some more career clothing, wow, expensive! I think I got a few good deals. I am liking dressing
up for work, it's nice to be back in a corporate environment. I need to find a way to condense the time it takes me to get ready though, I am thinking the cleaners could wash and iron my pants, and then I am not wasting my time doing so in the morning, next week I start carpooling with my hubby and he is an early bird
I am not!! I am thinking if I shower and dry my hair at night, and then do the beauty routine in the morning, makeup on the way to the office, it might be alright...I might survive the first few weeks, getting used to the early days, the good news about going in early, is leaving early, and missing out on the killer traffic, we don't have the same taste in music,
(come one, who is radiohead anyway?), so the rule is, he who drives, gets to choose, good thing I have an ipod...
Until next time...
Chaos
I have been scrapping just about every night after work for the last couple of weeks. This is what my nice organized space looks like after a week of sorting, cropping and projecting. I have been working on an ABC album for my mother for QUITE SOME TIME, and I have been making good progress. I got the hutch at IKEA and had worked hard all one weekend to try and get stuff in some semblance of order, even using the magnetic board to display a few of my favorite photos and new products (check out the technique tuesday loves me, loves me not stamps)
Also during the photo sorting, I thought about the photos I was wanting to scan for a photo montage for my son's 18 birthday party, so even more stuff everywhere. I still have yet to find a great photo organizing system, I think I am going to give memory dock a try, perhaps then I could find
that one photo you know you have that is just perfect for this layout!The long weekend will be great for cropping and laundry and projecting and getting organized...I start my new job on Tuesday, and still have Creative Escape to deal with next weekend...sunday I may be a zombie!
The following weekend is the Creating Keepsakes Convvention, and I am working for one of the vendors all day saturday, then the next weekend...I leave for my cruise. WOW! I desperately want to get together with my friends for some cropping as well, I don't know when we will manage to fit that in...
Until next time
