happy holidays - WHAT????????

OHMYGOD!!!! We are less that 2 weeks til christmas ... how did that happen! i have a few gifts done and no decorating (exept the stuff that didnt go away last year! lol!) two of the kiddies have got most of their shopping done ... ME? not even CLOSE!!oy Vey!

i did get my cards done - actually i did extra last year (really cute skating elves) and then i needed 20 more so that was EASY! here are the new ones ... it was class i did at SCRAPBOOK QUEENS!



and i have been teaching quite a few Community Living classes - cards, altered items, LOTS of fun! this is a wood block we made and i think Granny would love it! with a picture of the kiddies tucked in ... what do you think?



i also did a mini album of our trip to Costa Rica ... think DH is getting that in his stocking! Have a look :









ok, friends, i need some good sporty ideas ... we are full into hockey season and i have actually TAKEN SOME PHOTOS!!!!!

(now back to the mall with me ...)

wow! its been a long time ... part deux!

i am back again! things just seem to take over ... ok, more blogging - less something else (i will let you know what it is when i figure it out!)

i am trying to work some classes into my busy schedule ... i am really excited because we have a few Community Living groups coming to use the studio at the store ... i LOVE how crafts bring people together! if you have a group that is looking for some space to meet, let me know!

i finished my Costa Rica mixed album ... well, i finished it a while ago but i will post pics .. its so cool ... i have enough leftovers to run a class of 5 ... let me know ASAP if your interested!!!







super busy with hockey ... my kids all play, i play ...DH used to play but hurt himself and never got it fixed so now he on the injured list (and isnt allowed to drink with boys after so FINALLY got it xrayed, m.r.i-ed and is waiting to see the specialist )...ugh - enough about DRAMA boy ...

i am coaching and managing 3 (yes THREE) of the girls 4 teams! peuf! my awesome girls are playing on 2 teams each and i could not be prouder but wow is it lots of work ... oh, and daddy might need to start driving a cab on weekends... and maybe weeknights ... and maybe on his lunch hour ... heeheeheeh!

anyone need a glass of wine?

SMASH IN!!!!!

if any of you are waiting for SMASHbook items.... THEY ARE IN!!! If you have pre-ordered anything from Scrapbook Queens, i will be calling you today ... woohoo!

Next order of business ... we have a group that meets every 3rd Thursday of the month at the store called BOOK OF ME ... you are welcome to come and work on your "book of me" or any other projects that need finishing ... BRING A FRIEND!! oh, its FREE!

and lastly ... 13 yr old girl DRAMA! oy vey!!! one day they are BFF"s and the next day they are not speaking ...ugh! i must say, DLU has her share of drama but i do admit she is usually not the perp! LOL! she has a friend who eats sleeps and breaths DRAMA! what do you do? they have been buds since they were little but seriously, its getting s bit crazy ... does someone like that ever grow out of it? do i encourage her to move on or is the friendship some-thing she should try to salvage? DLU is often at the receiving end of the negative behaviour ... she is a passive person, maybe too passive ... UGH!

i really am not looking forward to the next few years- girls are tough!

GARCON! i need a bottle of Chianti! STAT!!!!
