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:)

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 ...

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. ...

Happy New Year!

Happy Anniversary to my parents that got married today many moons ago. Congratulations for over 30 years of marital bliss.   Updates... I know why you should have a realtor.  Too many emotions.  The people that looked out our house put it in their top 3 choices and today they go back to their other 2 choices.  We will see what happens.  I feel a low offer coming our way, if we get an offer at all.     Do you know how much work it is to keep a house walk thru ready?  I feel like we worked all day to get out for an hour and then we came home and trashed the place.     Tomungus, Nathan's new word.  What it means I'm not quite sure, but he thinks it is funny.  He says humongous and ginormous a lot so I think he just said one wrong.   The veggie garden is growing wild. We have tiny tomatoes, squash, zucchini and broccoli. I kinda hope we can get some veggie before we move.  If not I will have to start another garden the kids love it and it keeps them busy watering it.  Playing in  w...
