Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll





I thought I would Participate in Urban Anthology's Got talent. I have no idea how I did but I am very pleased with the layout I did and I have gotten lots of great feedback about it. The challenge was to do a layout about my scrapbook style and also about myself. The picture I chose was of me as a little girl. Well you be the judge and let me know what you think...




Wasn't I cute little thing?? It's hard to believe but the day this picture was taken a kid had picked up a piece of concrete and hit me in my right eye if you look close you can see the mark on my eye. My mother was so upset because we were doing the family portrait thing lol... Kids will be kids I guess. Thanks for looking

The most Wonderful Time of the Yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!


hehehe I just love that song at the end of Summer hehehe it signifies my kids are going back to school wahoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..

This mommy has had enough of her children all summer long. The bugging " mom can we go to the park" " Mom can we play outside" Mom can we go swimming".. " Mom this Mom that". It was enough to test my sanity i'll tell ya.


But now the boys are back in school and I appreciate the respite I get from them everyday.. It makes me appreciate my boys even more. It gives me the alone time I need and deserve I also get to put my house back in order.


I am also in the process of helping my hubby set up his own busioness so that keeps me occupied while he's at his day job I do the phone calls and setting up of appointments and stuff like that. So he doesn't have to worry about anything. But i like to help my man out that's what it's all about right?


On another note since I am not working I get to concentrate on my obsession " SCRAPBOOKING" hehehe I am enjoying having the time toenjoy my hobby again and really apreciate the nuances and what not. I tried out for the Queen Kat Design Team don't know if I made it or not but I can always hope after all my middle name is Hope. On that note we shall see what happens I guess. I am going to post my entries for the DT tryout so you all can havbe a look I love my Hippo card it's to cute I think.

Hazing Event

Well I can honestly say I have never experienced a hazing event but I know a few people who have. The High school I went to way back when ( lol) had a habit of giving swirly's to the new grade 9's. If you don't know what a swirly is I will enlighten you. You take the grade 9 turn him/her upside down and put their head in a toilet and flush. great i think it's nasty personally
