"A little's enough"

So my first week at the new job has been wonderful. I love it so far. I can already see the difference in my mannerisms, Im less frustrated and there is SO much less stressing. Its so nice to be in a fun and happy atmosphere, it makes the time go by faster. I love ALL of the girls I work with and getting to see them more often is a treat too. And I dont think anything can beat getting to open up boxes of FUN new product! Love that part too! We got some new stuff in today and it was fun to put it all on the shelves. So thats cool. So glad I have this, I feel lucky. : )

Ive not really had much to blog about lately. I DEVOURED Harry Potter and finished it ALL up Saturday night. I just could NOT stop. It is SOOOO good. Now I have my Nicholas racing to finish up the books. Hes only at 5, I think I already blogged about that little sitch but he has given up our movie night dates (which is fine because I have so much I need to do other than watching movies) to read. It so freakin cute, seeing him snuggled up on the couch with little Aly and a blanket just reading away. Something else to scrapbook about! lol

Ive been scrapping! For the past two weeks, it seems. I am a slow scrapper, emphasis on the slow. two weeks to do four layouts, a card, a matchbox project and a wall hanging. I finally finished up all of my stuff for the July SOMO kit Monday night but Im still on a strong search for a frame for one of the projects. We got one of those Heidi Swapp clock faces and I just never bought them when they came out because I didnt really want one of those school clocks in the house. So when I got it in the kit I CHALLENGED myself to find a non-clock use for it. And I did and I love it. Its a wall decor piece so I need a frame for it but it needs to be a shadow box type since I am pop dot crazy. I like my texture and dimension, I cant help it. : ) SO anyway I am having a hard time trying to find one that isnt like $50.00 and is 12x12. The frameless project has been at Ruban Rouge since last Wednesday but I cant wait to hang it up in my room, its so fun! I have nothing on any of my walls. Love the colors, that MM funky vintage ROCKS!

Then Yesterday I played with Brand new Scenic Route from this CHA and that was fun. Love it. So much. And I think the layout that I made is fully my most favorite layout ever. Is that a surprise? It just came together by itself. Can you tell I have nothing to talk about, Im just rambling on about scrapbooking. Thats like all I do these days. I really need to be doing laundry and dishes and purging some crap taking up precious space in our casa. I guess Ill get to that right now. hehe

So that was my little update....a little's enough. Ciao for now.

TMJ-I am sooooo glad you posted a new entry so I can tell you how HAPPPPYYYYY you looked at RR tonight. Even though you said I looked poopy, you were sparkly!!!! It is so great to see you in such a good place in your life!!!!! I loved the frameless at RR...I knew it was your work because I recognized your Nicholas in the layout. Keep that happy face going...it looks great on you!!!

Theresa-not sure if you like TMJ or not so I will call you by your first name. It was so nice to see you yesterday at Ruban Rouge and I even got to see you on Sunday too. You are such an inspiration to me and do some darn great layouts along with little projects. I couldn’t tell you enough on Sunday how much I love the Heidi Swapp Clock and I even bought some of the stuff to scrap lift it. I am so jealous of you that you got to play with the new Scenic Route, which is one of my favorite lines along with Making Memories, Basic Route, MOD, Foofala and so many others. I sure hope that you will teach a class real soon even if it is a 2 page layout because I will be one of the ones for sure to attend. Hugs sent xoxox

P.S. Any new makings of cannolis lately 

glad you're enjoying your new job! That's a great feeling when you can actually enjoy what you're doing.

And rambling about scrapbooking is totally fine in my book!
