Sneek Peek

This is a sneek peek of an altered journal I completed for a swap from the Cricut message board. I did not get as much done like I wanted to today and I don't see that happening tomorrow either. I guess every little bit helps. I hope you enjoy the sneek peek. Oh it is so hard for me to not show the whole thing.

More Accomplishments

LOL I am so glad that no one points out my typos and grammatical errors. At one time in my life I was a spelling/writting whiz. Now...eh I'm just so excited about scrapping and blogging not to mention the fact that I have an insane schedule, that I make mistakes and do not really proof read properly. Another thing is, is that I have these wicked long manicured nails that it can make it tricky to type at times.

I have completed more accomplishments. I really took a huge dent out of my organization tasks. Sometimes I just have to tear into some projects and it can leave things in a mess. Other times I am just so busy, whether I am having fun or working hard I'm just always doing something. I really try to make it a point to spend my days at home doing things together as a family. I like to take the kids to places that are fun and new. The last couple of times that I had off, I feel like more things got accomplished.

One thing that I accomplished besides the boring tedious hard task of organizing is an element of my journal swap that I have joined. I altered a spiral comp book using my Cricut and Cuttlebug. I can't go into alot of detail at the moment in case my swap partner reads my blog by any chance. I want it to be a surprise. I have a couple of more things that I want to add to the project. I'm just all smiles because I got one part of it finished. My boyfriend was present and gave some pretty good ideas. I have to give him a little bit of credit here. He says that he is not creative but he really does come up with great ideas.

Oh oh oh and I also bought a bike. It is an oldie! Classic Schwinn from the 60's. Purple, fenders; the only thing missing is a basket and bell. I have not had a chance to ride it yet but first chance you can bet I will be pedeling away on my cruiser.

I am getting excited about this summer. There are so many things that I want to do. I am getting excited about my upcoming days off. Hopefully I can get some pictures posted for you all to see! Oh yeah I'm also excited about upcoming vacations that are in my near future.

Accomplished

I got some things accomplished over my last two days off. I managed to get my daughter to a doctors appointment and filled her prescription. I spoke with two schools in reguard to some teenaged education issues. I managed to spend movie time with the boys without falling asleep halfway through the movie. I managed to kill zombies with my oldest son. We make a great team when it comes to defending ourselves against the infected. I took the entire family out for Chinese dinner one night and ordered pizza the next night for dinner. I ran to the post office and mailed my swap cuts off. This was a Must Do; I did not want to get my stuff mailed out too late and be called a "Flaker" on my favorite message board. I even managed to re-arrange my bedroom/office/scraproom.
To some people this may seem like a pretty light couple of days but for me that is alot of tasks complete. I feel very accomplished. I have a very hard time staying awake through an entire movie. It does not matter how good the movie is or how much I wanted to see it; I'm falling asleep almost everytime. It has been a long time since I got a chance to spend time playing video games with my son. He is a game fanatic so I try to do the things that he likes to do. It's also nice that I spent time with my teen daughter and we had no arguements. Sometimes not disagreeing with a teen female can be a rare occurance. I also took alot of time totally reorganizing my bedroom. I really do have too much stuff crammed into one room. I don't know about anyone else but sometimes when I clean I make an even bigger mess than what I started with. I also have really heavy furniture. I still have to do some more organizing but that will have to wait until this weekend is over with. I will be working this entire weekend. You won't hear me complaining though; I feel accomplished.

No matter what, I'm pretty sure I will be okay

I am going to keep that in mind right now. I have a lot of things on my mind right now. I just need to keep telling myself that no matter what I will be okay. I have dealt with worse. I have a great support system. I will be okay!

She works hard for the money so you better treat her right

I am so thankful that God has provided me with a good job. It is not the best job but it is not labor intensive, it pays decent and the benefits are decent. I must say that working all of this overtime is making me feel guilty and exhausted. It is just too hard to walk away from the money...we could really use it around our house. Of course Im sure that every household is like that. I have never met anyone that said they had too much money. If you ever run across that person though, please send them my way. Until then I guess I will just be happy that the good lord not only provided me with a good job, but he is also providing me with the chance to work overtime and have a little extra money. I really would rather be at home hanging out with my beautiful family right now though. I miss my kids. I could be scrapbooking right now instead of hanging out on scrapbook sites. "Sigh" I have so many things on my mind right now.........I need to just focus on the positive and be thankful

Disney Swap Characters

This is what I am mailing off for a Disney Swap from the Cricut.com message board. I sure hope that I did this right. I really don't have alot of time open to do things like this so when there is something that does not go exactly as planned.....well I'm sure I don't have to tell you. I think that we all face the same issues in life. Okay here goes...let's see what happens.
