2 Scrappy Layouts
Today I did two layouts. I was going to blog earlier, but I just have time to post these two pages now. I have to get my lunch together for tomorrow and clean up the kitchen before Army Wives is on at 10:00.
Page #1 is my nephew. He had that long hair do that is so popular right now and then he got his head shaved! It’s such a change! His favorite color is orange, so that’s why I use a lot of oranges for pages I make of him. And the Digitreats Jump and Run kits have good oranges in them so I used them again for this page.

Fabu Friday!
Today is my luxurious day off and so far it’s about 3:00 and I have done nothing. Heh, it’s all good though. I actually felt rested when I woke up this morning at like 6:30 to a dog nose on my arm. I ended being up for an hour just about wide awake sitting there thinking how I could go to work right then and probably have been fine all day.
I think i know what’s been wrong with me all week. I was completely out of one of my medications for a week due to the whole check mixup…and I was able to get it filled and get back on it. I know it will take a few days to get into my system, but I think I felt better just having it in the house again and being able to take it.
So, a good night’s sleep and a whole day to do what I need to do. Sounds like a winner to me.
I wanted to write quick and post the page I just finished before I go get started on the dishes…ugh…the most dreaded thing on earth!
I found this great word art today during my freebie search and it fit PERFECTLY with the picture of my nephew and my dad that I used in the layout the other day, so I used it again and I even found another one and was able to use two smaller pictures.

Lazy Sunday
This weekend I was supposed to work on website things for the APSFA. I am so behind in everything, but for whatever reason Frontpage wasn’t cooperating and I cannot connect to upload. I don’t understand. I tried to turn the firewall off and everything. I messed with it for a few hours yesterday and then again for a couple hours today. I’m just get frustrating and I keep getting that dreaded “default beep”…a noise I hate. So I guess I’ll look at it again tomorrow.
I was also supposed to do the dishes this weekend. I HATE doing the dishes. I will let them completely stack up until we don’t have any dishes clean before I do them. I know that’s nasty, and we even have a dishwasher, but I despise doing dishes. I’ll have to bite the bullet and do them one day this week. Maybe tomorrow.
What I did do today was organize my scrapbook stuff on my external hard drive and downloaded some more freebies. The organizing took a long time, but it’s worth it because everything is nice and neat now. I even downloaded a new little program to extract zip and rar files. It’s much better than Winzip. It’s called “ExtractNow” and it works really quickly and can do multiple files at once!!! Which is something that really annoyed my about Winzip. So now I can just download and extract scrappy things much much quicker. lol Lord, help me!
I made this page today:
I need to find the link where I got the template, but all of the papers are from Michi and they are a freebie mega kit called “Endless”. The ribbon on the side is also from there and the crown is from somewhere else that I’m not sure of.
Like I’ve said before I was just downloading and never saving where things came from, so most of my kits and everything, I have NO clue where they came from. Most are freebies. I didn’t change the filenames so some I can figure out. If I’m posting pages here I’ll try to figure it out so I can give credit where I can. Just assume I made NONE of the papers or embellishments because I have no clue how to even color something!!! LOL I’m learning though!
The picture is of Jellybean, aka Beans or “Missy Beans” as she’s more recently been called. I guess I should have put her name on there somewhere. She’s our only girl kitty and she’s a rescue. We adopted her from a shelter that we volunteered at for a while. Actually all but one of our cats came from that shelter. Good thing we’re not still there or we’d have many more cats!! Beans is 2 yrs old I think now and she’s just a little bitty thing. She’s been more social lately and comes out more…she used to just hide mostly.
It’s not a great thing to have so many cats in the same age range. Especially boys!!! I totally prefer boy cats to girl cats for many reasons, but they are so bad…it’s like a house full of toddlers here. They’re just into EVERYTHING and I swear, they get together at night and conspire against us!! lol
Tomorrow I’m going to make a scrapbook page using a photo of my two nephews together. It’s a silly and cute picture of them sticking their tongues out. I don’t know if I am going to put it up or not. I’m not sure if I should put their pictures out there for all to see. Maybe it doesn’t matter, so many people do it. I’ll have to think about it. I’ll probably put it on here. I’m really going to try to make a page a day…or a couple a week anyways.
Well I need to put the food I made for my breakfast tomorrow away in the fridge and my bed is calling me. I hate having no food and no money.
Hopefully that stimulus check comes tomorrow!!!
