Don't Laugh

I am proud of my very own blog background design.  I have been at it all afternoon and I still don't like it but it is better than the first one I did.  I wanted my very own design.  I have learned a lot today ~ html and all.  I'm on test 4.  The first one made me laugh out loud, but I just couldn't keep it on my blog.   Photoshop elements is a force to be reckoned with.  You could do a ton of stuff with it if you knew what you where doing.  I am going back to the digital drawing board when the kids go to bed.  

I can see where digital scrapbooking could be fun.  All you would ever need is your computer. No back breaking bags, tons of paper all over the place, no paper photos to crop, no scraps to pick up off the floor, no stickers to line up just right. You would never run out of letters or zero's.  I think Mark was on to something when he said 5 years ago I should try digital scrapbooking.  So it takes me a little while to come around.  I still like cutting paper.  My back is aching from clicking and sitting at my computer all afternoon.  VERY addictive.  Come back often to see my latest design.

I think your design is very nice. Every time I pick a new background Chris is over my shoulder going "you know you can make your own". I don't have the patience:)

Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook

It has been 24 days since I changed my password and logged off Facebook. I have logged on twice to see if anyone messaged me and logged back off. Which I am glad that I did because someone messaged me about math tutoring. The only thing I missed was if someone had had their baby. I was interested to know and while I tried so hard to stay off Facebook I did search her name just to see if she had the baby. Then I thought if she did have the baby and I don't know then are we really friends?   We are not friends by the true definition, just virtual Facebook friends. Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook 1. Selling of Rodan & Fields, LuLaRue, 31, Ketones or Scentsy.  I like some of these products and support you 100% and hope you do well.  The multiple posts on your product daily but nothing else in your life, blah. 2. Bragging. I love to see pictures of your vacation, if it isn't the only time you are on Facebook. 3. Posting fake news. 4. Making a comment I ...

Queen of Google

Day in and day out I am frustrated with myself because I didn't take the time to write.  I want to write but I find myself not writing anything but thinking about writing.  I love to read and make time for reading but I find myself often just thinking about writing and not actually writing.   I am not sure what will ever motivate me to write daily.  Being a mom to three tween/teens in a huge job.  Especially when one is being homeschooled this year.  I find myself saying things like, when the dishes are done or when the laundry is done then I will write.  Just let me check all this school work first and then I will write.  When it is quiet, I will write.  This could be why I never write.  It is never quiet in this house.   Today I have had enough.  I am not about new year resolutions but I am going to make the commitment today to write daily.  I ideally would like to write not just for the blog but novel writing. ...

2 AM Musings

I have been wide awake since before 2 AM. Wide eyed and well, not so bushy tailed. This is the second day in a row. Why?  No really, why? This is the second day in a row my brain refuses to turn off for longer than a few hours. It's like half my brain wants to party and the logical side knows this is not a good thing.    As a mom of three on the first day of a new school year I am sitting in the family room in the dark thinking of all the things I can't do right now. I am also lamenting summer. Today summer break officially ends. At least I am up in time to get the kids to school.   I am not excited for today. It has a few milestones that we can not put off. I will not drive to the elementary school for the first time in eight years. I will be dropping my youngest off at middle school and my oldest at the high school. Also the middle child decided to go back to school so I will not be homeschooling this year.   In a few hours my kids will wake up and ...
