Oh Crap!

Ask anyone who know me and they can tell you how accident prone I am.
I was helping friends move yesturday. I was so good and careful about my back. I didn't do more than I knew I should. I was being so good....
At the end of the day, I brought the last load in my truck. I parked on the side of the road. Got out and just before I stepped on the driveway I twisted my ankle and heard a crack. Gross!
After several hours of ice, it was decided I should go to the ER. My friend is an xray tec. and said the best time would be around 5 or 6 am. So that's when I went. I is not broken, but really sprained. I have to stay off it for a week. If I do get up, I need to use crutches. It will be 4-6 weeks for it to heal, and that's with physio in between.
MAN THIS SUCKS!

Stuck

I have a Close to My Heart party to do tomorrow. I have done a few so far making cards... this hostess has requested I do a layout. I am trying to find something simple, yet effective for showing off the CTMH products. It is also a large gathering, 8-10 ladies, and without much for warning, I didn't have time to order anything additional for the party. I have to rely on what I have on hand....wish me luck.

Layout Contest


This is my layout for the sketch contest on the My Mind's Eye blog. I don't know why it is so blurry. It will have to do for now till I find time to fix it. I used all MME products and from various lines though out the years. I was excited to use my transparency frame, transparency flower and the buttons that I have had for awhile.

This is the original sketch...

Just did a craft fair at the kids' school today. I set up a Close to My Heart table. It was fun hanging out with the ladies. I found lots of cool stuff. So much so that I have parties booked for Scentsy (wax melted with the heat of a light bulb. Amazingly beautiful warmers and great scents. Way safer than candles), Epicure (can't get enough spices) and Pampered Chef (not till the new year). I love any excuse to have the ladies over and hang out!

Time for myself





I finally was able to sit down and scrapbook this weekend. I took some time to myself and I got 9 layouts done. These were some of my favorite...
Here goes... I am finally attempting to blog. Mostly for my families and friends afar. I have been thinking about doing this for a long while. Computing is not my thing, so wish me luck...
