Really?!?!

I finally took a few moments for "me" today, and scrapped a page. I had this Pagemaps sketch that I thought was perfect for this page, and everything came together quickly. This picture was so funny because I didn't see the "Dead Chicken" on the sign until after I had taken the picture. What a laugh we got, and the meal was great too. It was a good afternoon that day!

Glory to God

Hello - I've been gone for too long. Now that it is summer, I am FINALLY getting caught up on some things. There is hope that my scraproom will be clean one day!!! Nahhhh, just kidding!!

Here is my latest layout for the PageMaps layout contest that ends tonight. I've had these pics for a long time, almost a year, and finally found some pretty patterned paper to go with them. I loved that I was able to "hide" the journaling because I didn't want to take from the pic or the pretty paper, but I did want to say something about the pics. All of these colors put together really make me happy!

The journaling says: "Madison sang with the King's Kids (our elementary-aged choir) at the Family Fun Fair & Grillin' for Gilda BBQ contest on Saturday, Oct. 16th, 2010, which gives cancer support for the whole family. Madison sang pretty & we ate LOTS of BBQ! Then, we perused the car show & enjoyed the beautiful weather. -10 years old"

Some journaling prompts for today:

Outside my window... I'm at work...I don't have a window. But if I did, it would be overcast and rainy, so I will just pretend it is warm & sunny outside.
I am thinking... about In A Nutshell.
I am thankful for... for a job that I like.
From the kitchen... tuna noodle casserole leftovers - gotta make deviled eggs tonight though.
I am wearing... my burgundy sweater, hopefully for the last time this winter!
I am creating.. nothing; again, I am at work.
I am going... to send my sister a quick email.
I am reading... the latest Country Living magazine.
I am hoping... that In A Nutshell will bring in money instead of helping me spend it.
I am hearing...Every Little Breath She Takes by The Police, on the radio.
Around the house... evidence of having gone through a choir weekend - so things need to get in their places, & laundry needs done.
One of my favorite things... Etsy.com!
A few plans for the rest of the week... All-staff luncheon tomorrow, haircut, lunch with a friend on Friday, getting out in the nice weather that is supposed to come!!
