another lazy day

Another lazy day......... spent it getting everything organized for work tomorrow, which I am completely dreading after having two weeks of vacation. I so hate getting up early, and it is going to be especially hard after staying up late for so many nights. Vegas might have done me in. LOL I then spent the 2nd part of the day getting some scrapbooking LOs in - 2 for Concroption and 2 others. I will have to photograph them tomorrow and post them.

Today I am thankful for: my Kindle, cheddar broccoli soup from Corner Street Bakery and finally setting up my Facebook profile.

believe

The word of the year is........ BELIEVE. The other top contenders ended up being POSSIBILITIES and STRENGTH.

I spent much of today getting organized - transferred info to the new Franklin Covey month pages, added appointments, uploaded photos, printed out photos. Basically getting ready for an exciting year. I can't wait to scrap tomorrow - I have the photos printed and the chores out of the way!

Today I am thankful for: being able to get along with Daniel (Happy Birthday!), Sex and the City movie (again - I love it!) and Kevin's freshly shaven face.

still deciding...........

I'm still deciding on a word for the year........

Things I am grateful for today: Kevin getting me breakfast while I am still sleeping, playing good golf (yay me!) and warm bread with butter.

happy new year!!!

I can't believe it is 2009 already. I have been a bad, bad blogger but this year I intend (no resolutions only intentions here) to blog much, much more.

I love Ali Edwards and every year I try and come up with a new word for the year to focus on and I can't decide. These are my options: BELIEVE, DARE, STRENGTH, PERSEVERE, DREAM, BALANCE, RENEW or ACHIEVE. My mom thinks I should go with FOCUS and my dad likes STRENGTH. Kevin likes BELIEVE and I'm still meditiating on it...........

I usually come up with three things I'm grateful for everyday but have never blogged them before. The big ones are obvious: my family, Kevin, my boys, health, a job, money to pay the bills, food on my table, a roof over my head, good friends etc....... so I usually try and remember some of the small things that I'm grateful for everyday. Today they are: dinner at my parents house, a lazy day at home with Kevin and puppy kisses.

Happy new year to you all and I hope 2009 brings you everything you wanted and more!

my travel album

I have been a very bad blogger, but in all fairness I did go on vacation (Kevin & I went to Hawaii) and I have been swamped at work. As a result of all this I have had a cold for the past 2 weeks & summer colds suck!

The good news is that Freckle Friends has developed my Cabo travel memorabilia album into their July project of the month. I love this album because it uses 7 Gypsies envelopes to store all these random items neatly. I think I might have to make one for Hawaii now! I have been busy scrapbooking so I will post all my new Hawaii pages up soon - of course the first ones I made were of our cage dive with sharks!!!
