Oh my soul I cant believe that its been almost a year since I last posted anything on my blog....man time does fly!!

Well I have been dabbling in a lot of different things the last YEAR...and I will soon share some pictures of what I have been getting up too.

..but today was just toooooo much for me and need to get things off my chest....
I now have my mother-in-law living with us permanently....the last 12 months... I understand that she is OLD (76) and getting older....Everybody around me has commented that I am such a good person to have taken my Mother-in-law and her son in. (my brother-in-law of 49 who refuses to do any work what so ever!!) but today..it just got to me and i LOST my cool with her in such an ugly way....I am just so grateful that there were no costumers waiting to see me and maybe heard me screaming like a fishwife at her...

Now I feel like a real nasty person with all the ugly things I said and I feel so ashamed with WHAT I said that i dare not even repeat what i said!!

Well it now been about 3 hours since our argument and I have calmed down...but I now need to apologize with my tail between my legs..and that never easy to do.

This first photo is my gorgeous son Tristan who is only 14 years old! Mommy's heat just melts, I can't believe that you have gotten so big. You make me very proud.

Okay so this blogging thin is not so bad after all, sort of sorted myself out but, look at the time now is 01:16 am.
Goodnight all

Just being me

2011-08-21T11:09:00.002-07:00

Okay so I am trying to change things around on my blog site (learning as I go) but, not just here my shop "The Scrappers Club" as well as trying to set my mind right for work, (for the next five days). One has to be fit in order to be able to keep with all this journaling, Managing your own shop and being there at he shop 24/7. Never mind that fact that I have two kiddo's and a four bedroom house to keep clean all by MYSELF!!!! (Hubby works away from home I only see him every second weekend)
I have started designing my own chipboard designs and managed to find a manufacture right here in my home town (which makes life for me just a little easier),

So during all this chaos in my life I have decided to start eating right again. Nothing after 8, I tend to work long hours with out eating and only then realize that the time is 2 in the morning. and Oh boy then I and hungry and will more than likely make myself a cup of coffee instead!

Right so this week it down to lots of water, lots of fruit during the day and a nice hearty breakfast in the morning....as I have lots on my plate and need to get everything done in time.

Goodnight for now sleep tight!

Advise for scrapbooking!!

2011-04-16T21:27:00.000-07:00

When using a CRAFT KNIFE or a STANDING KNIFE always make sure that -
1. YOU are concentrating on what you are doing
2. NEVER be in a such hast that you are actually rushing to finish what you are doing!
3. Rather use a scissors than a craft knife if it's NOT for procession work.
4. Relax and ENJOY your hobby (scrapbooking)!

I had to give myself a little pep talk after I was doing all of the above except for number 4.
I was rushing, using a VERY sharp standing craft knife, NOT concentrating and ended up cutting my left pointy finger. I realized after looking at what I had just done that this cut needs more than just a plaster.....I went to the chemist for help and they said NO ways I need more that help than they could give me....so there I was at the doctors emergency rooms! I got three stitches, the cut was about 2.5cm long and about 0.5cm deep on the side of the finger.......Now I was not feeling so bright anymore!
I told my son (who was with me through this whole experience) that I need to scrap ONE more thing before I finish work for the day....I needed to CUT (realized it would have to be with a scissors) some letters...that said STUPID!

Today I realized that we do not have control of the day as we think we do! God is control and knows exactly what will happen to me today! My problem today was I never stop to listen or maybe I just never heard what He was saying cause I was in a rush!!!!
So from now on I am taking things a little slower, trying to hear what God has to say to me and maybe if He'll let me in on what He has planed for me today

Time is flying by and we are rushing to just try and catch up and before we know it we are going to tumble and fall into the WRONG hands, So slow down take time to hear what God is planing for you today and follow His steps and by the end of time we'll fall straight into his arms where we belong!
