Hello Ladies! I know you're sitting around, bored, with nothing to do so I'm giving you an assignment. This is important. Forget about the laundry, the dirty dishes, or that the kids have been complaining of hunger for 2 hours now. You have a card to make! Isn't it beautiful? Simple, yet elegant. The original dimensions for this card are 6x6" (or square), but creative freedom can allow you to chan...

I'm challenging you to a Scrap-Off! Here is a sketch from the May 2008 - PageMaps Collection. The original sketch size is 12x12", but you can scale it down to 8x8" if you'd like (6x6" might be too small for this).

You don't have to follow this sketch by the book or feel restricted by the dimensions. Let it be your starting point. Who knows, maybe it'll inspire you to finish that albu...

Yea .......... Friday............!!! This has been a really tough week. So much unnecessary stuff going on here at work. Can't believe how childish some people can be. And the men are the WORST! They gossip, they whine, they "tattle tale" worse than any little girl I have ever known......... I say... "Put on your Big Boy britches " and get back to work.... Honestly, I just can't believe how they...

Just thought I'd share a few more pics from my garden with you. Things are really coming along now. First is a perennial salvia called 'May Night'. It's such a lovely color! Next is one of my favorite roses. It's a floribunda called 'Honey Perfume'. Next is a David Austin climber called 'Graham Thomas'. It's a very frilly yellow rose that also smells soooooo great! Very sweet and soft scent....

It never ceases to amaze me how very little I know and how there is so much more for me to learn. Here I am in my prime (over a half a century old) and today I once again learned something new from my granddaughter, Natalie. I'm not complaining mind you. Actually, I feel privileged to acquire some new bit of information from a 5 year old. In fact, I have myself totally convinced that she gets ...

Well, it's now May 16th and I still have not been able to find a job. What in the world is going on? I have many years of experience in management and I have a BA in Psychology and still no bites. It makes you wonder what's in store for our children. There are hundreds of people with college degrees competing for the same positions a High School graduate would normally do. I've witnessed this...
