All Sobe'd Out

I think I have come to a crucial point in my life.....Sobe No Fear is no longer working as a pick me up.........WAAAAAAAAAH! What am I going to do on the long B O R I N G nights at work to stay awake. I can not abide the taste of any of the other energy drinks so whats a working mom/wife/student/designer supposed to do????

I am more than halfway through Eldest...its only taken me almost a year to read. Its a great story especially considering how young Christopher Paolini was when he started writing. The only thing that saddens me is that this year I seem to be finishing up all my favorite series with no new books in site. JD Robb's Eve Dallas series, Diana Mott Davidson's Goldy Bear series, Kim Harrison's the Hollows, and now this...what will I do...anyone have any good fantasy series?? Or crime series? Or even a cooking mystery series (I love the recipes in Mott-Davidson's books).

Oh no I've lost my....

mojo!! has anyone seen it? I seem to have no creative spark whatsoever. I open up PSP and NOTHING......I have several swatches to choose from...but I don't feel inspired to create anything. I need to get cracking on my CATW items. As excited as I am to be participating, I cant muster up any playing spirit....maybe I will try scrapping. I have some pictures of my extended family that I would like to scrap and send to them as presents......I hate the winter blahs

I love holiday music and movies but this time of year is also very hard for me. Its been two years since Tahnee was murdered and no justice. I look at her daughters growing into beautiful young women and it breaks my heart that she is not here to see it. Here is an old layout I did of when she first died.

4Shared is DRIVING me INSANE

For some reason 4 shared does not like me today. I can not access my account information. Its putting a password on my files and I can not remove the file OR the password. ARRRGH.

Anyone have any suggestions over a better file hosting place?

In happier news my Black friday deal (400GB HD) came and is installed in its external case. Now I have room for more STUFF!!!I still haven't decided if I really want the divx dvd player....decisions decisions.....

First post and a FREEBIE

I'm back after a hiatus....real life took over...but I am ready to jump back in to designing and scrapping. I am about to start at a new store and will be offering all new products. I decided to leave my old blog @ scrappinhappy.blogspot.com and start here.

Just to give everyone a taste of my new and improving design skills here is a freebie to snag. Sweet Coco is the name of this sampler cause it reminded me of the cocoa I drink a lot of this time of year.
