shoot'n at the walls of heartache....

BANG BANG.....



I am the warrior.



Nothing like some good old fashioned 80's music to make my day. Got my Pandora going with pat benatar, Blondie and even a bit of Heart. Heart was amazing, I mean c'mon hot rocker chicks  (one with a weight problem, thank goodness for those role models), good music and lyrics. It couldn't get any better than that....

Sunday night again...

How does that happen? Seems like Sunday is so far away on Monday but then its upon you and then over.  We are watching Extreme home makeover, cuddling on the couch, in our warm cozy home while it trickles down snowflakes outside. Been scrapping almost all day, some for Kit and Kaboodles, some for me, and even circle journals. Here is a double layout I did for KNK....



Cherishdblweb Office is closed tomorrow. Not really because of the holiday but because of the death of our office partner. My father and him had been office partners for about 25 years. He was 84 and taught skiing in our community to kids till the age of 82. Amazing man and fantastic civic leader. Going to his funeral and hoping that there will be room to sit because I am betting half our town will be there......



See ya later.

Stacked.....

Img_0341 OK suggestive title, But not at all what you are thinking. Scoop your minds up out of the gutter will ya? I am talking about my new years resolution. The only one I was willing to list. The only one worth listing. I am determined to put away ALL the layouts I have done in the last year, or at least part of it, into the proper albums. I have a hard time just doing it. I put them in my paper cubes and hope someone will do it for me. The scrapbook fairy perhaps? I know there is few of those out there but alas......he hasn't come to my house. Neither did the elves....I still have the same shoes that I buy but don't wear. So here is to another year of scrapping and hopefully a few hours of sorting and placing!! Wish me luck.....

viewing

well not really a viewing. Just a family respect type thing...thats what I am going to tonight. My uncle died. I didn't know him very well but I am very close to my aunt and my cousin and my heart goes out to them. The funeral is tomorrow. I think my cousin is doing OK. She is still in high school, and i just wish she didn't have to go through this sort of thing so young.



On a happier note I went to a NEW scrap book store today!! YEAH!! a NEW one....yep a NEW one...lol. Its called "i scrap". It was opened by the lady who owns this on line scrapbook store. The retail store is GREAT!! I actually BOUGHT scrap supplies. Lately when I have gone scrapbook shopping I haven't found anything I really want. I end up buying adhesive. I am excited to have another store to go to! And the owner seems super nice and they have crops!! YEAH!!  so here it is an invite!! I am going to a crop there on the 25th and you are all invited!! really!! if you are in my area come!!

Had to

I had to scrap last night. Had too. It had been a horrible day, scrapping helped get my mind off things and focus on just creating. I grabbed the first pics I could find and did a simple layout....

Breathing more on schedual now!!

I am so sad the holiday is over! It was soo nice to be in our new home this Christmas. It was a dream come true! I am stretching out the season as long as I can. I am still sitting next to my Christmas tree in fact. LOL...It is going down this weekend though. Has to. Its starting to drive me nuts!



Web1 Christmas was great. My Brother and his girlfriend and my niece Dixie came down Christmas Eve and I had a wonderful dinner prepared! My first ham. For those that know me, its a big deal. Lots of side dishes, and tons of deserts. Had so many left overs that I finally just had to throw them away.



Then there was Christmas morning!! So much fun with a full house!! My kids Web05 slept maybe 2 hours Christmas eve and got up several times to see what Santa brought. Morning came early. They got up so early I made them sit on the couch and watch cartoons before they were aloud to wake anyone else up! It killed them....really.



There was lots of wrapping on the floor, boxes and WONDERFUL gifts!! Thanks to all of YOU!! I got a MM desktop carousel, Pirate of the Caribbean three, and some yummy goodies from the kids and so on. I think my kids favorite gift by far was Guitar hero. Even my brother got into the act!!



Web04 Web03 



Then it was off to my Aunt DeAnne's for dinner and family! Then home again home again for games and munchies!!



This is my grandmother (so my kids great grandmother) who is going to be 90 in august and still takes care of the old people in her little town. This is my youngest son. He is seven and he is NOT standing on a stool and she is NOT bending over......NO my son is not a giant.....giggle

All in all it was so wonderful! Can't wait till next year!!
