How unproductive can one get???

Well today was a complete wash..I spent all day in bed sleeping, I mean all day. I had planned on working from home and getting some packing done around the house this week but NO..I was in bed all day. Guess I needed the rest but sure could have better spent the time packing. Now I will probably be up all night packing and be all tired tomorrow.

So what have we been up to??? I spent last week at Kim's place and came home Friday. I picked up my step son Ty and then went and picked up Devin and Denver. We were going to dinner and a movie and even Clayton joined us. He hardly ever goes anywhere with us so it was really nice being able to spend time with all the boys. On Sat. we hung out at the house and then went shopping for Denver's B-day, Ty got to have his Jack -n- The Box meal...he loves that place, and then I took the boys back to their dad's. I went out to Kim's and we were going to a concert but ended up hanging out at the house. I can't wait to get moved because it is so much more enjoyable there than at my house now a days. We went to church on Sunday and then parted ways to spend the day with our Fathers. I came home and packed for the trip...FIVE more days....YEA US. And that is about all that happened this weekend. Nothing big and kinda quite. Well I am off to try to get something done just not sure where to start.

Layout of the Day on Moo Two Designs

YEAH KIM....here layout of the two of us made Layout of the Day.

Go see here

I am so proud of her, she is doing great work over at Moo Two Designs. She does still need to feed those hungry Freebie Hunters out there...hint, hint. Well, I can't really say anything because I am not feeding you lately either. I hope to get back to work when I get settled into the new home. Things are just crazy around me right now with need to pack up the house and only 10 DAYS TILL THE ALASKAN CRUISE!!!!!, and needing to get work done to make sure everything is covered while I am gone.

I am picking up Devin and Denver Friday since they went to their Dad's for the summer, I can't wait. I miss them so much and talking on the phone to them is just not enough. We are going to see a movie Friday and shopping and another movie on Sat. I am not logging on to my laptop the whole time I have them. I really need to focus on them for awhile and give them all my attention when I have them this summer. Well gotta go to work, so take care and leave me a message when you can so I know you are still out there.

Ready for Life to Slow Down...

Well sorry its been awhile since I posted, Kim has been on me to get busy. Unfortunately, I have been busy with life instead of my scrak habit. I can't wait to get moved into the new place so I can slow down. I finally started packing, five whole boxes in a 4000 sq. ft. home, got alot more to go. My baby has graduated from High School and I held together pretty well and we are making plans for college now. If I could only get him to get a job...that would be great.

Not bad for a girl that had him at the age of 16. This was a big day for us and I am so proud of him. He is such a good young man and I know he is going to do well in whatever he decides to do.

Denver finished 2nd grade and was awarded the Most Improved Wrangler for the Year. He really did a 360 this year and his grades really showed an improvement.

Devin did well in his classes and has decided to move to his Dad's next year and I wonder how long this is going to last. I figure he will either come home at the end of summer or at the very least by Christmas. But it will be a good learning experience for him.

Kim and I are getting excited about our cruise coming up. I am so blessed to be able to join her with her family and get to experience this with them. I wonder what work is going to do with both of us gone at the same time...guess they will either not miss us or appreciate us more.

Now lets talk The Great American Scrapbook Convention...here is Kim and I. The poor lady that took this pic really needs to take some classes on photo taking because I hope she is only scrapping her professional photos. It took forever to get the picture and when we finally got it this is what we ended up with. I mean no harm here but come on now.

I am going to scrap them anyway because it is all we have to work with. I have been at Kim's this weekend and we went to play pool last night and had a great time. I actually didn't play to bad, I really expected to be boo'd out of the place but I was able to hang with the Pool Shark Kim. Here is our pic of last night....yea, Michelle had way to much to drink and felt like I had a crew of men with jackhammers in my head this morning.

Then we went to church this morning and we started a new series today and looks like it is going to be a good one. Of course, I have yet to not see a good one...good stuff going on at church.

The divorce thing is moving along, I guess. I am hoping to get everything filed when I get back from my trip and start moving forward with my life. The boys are doing better and I actually got to see my step sons this past week. They have grown so much and loved spending the time with them before they had to go back home. I am going to have to get used to not being a part of their lives like I was but I hope to get to visit them every now and then. Plus their mom is a fellow scrapper and we have to find a time to get together for a full scrap weekend. Well I have bent your ear and need to maybe think of working on a kit for you.

Take care as always,

Missie
