Day 1, Layout 1


I am off to a flying start! I actually got a layout done for this :D ANd it is also the weekly challenge on the l-m boards.

It feels good to know that I will be creating for the next while, and knowing that is making it easier for me to think of times when I can squeeze in some scrapping. Helps keep the ol brain in creative mode!

THE page a day challenge!

Call me crazy, what was I thinking of - a page a DAY!!!


If you want to play along we would love to have you :D Check it out HERE


I can barely do a page a week lately lol But I have to do this, I feel the need to be creative and scrap. I just let things get in the way, and I let myself not scrap with very little reasoning. So I find that the committment to myself to scrap, every day, can be freeing in an odd way. I know that I will be doing it and my mind seems to stay in the creating groove :D

At least I hope that is the way it will play out this time. It has before so hopefully it will again. Here is my last two layouts, from the June kit at l-m. I struggled with these, I am so out of my groove. But I not the kind of person to redo things so this is it, they are going in the scrapbook as is :D

could you make that decision?

What on earth do you do when you are presented with what feels like an impossible decision? How do you decide when emotions get involved and what could be the right decision feels like an impossible thing.

The doctors don't know why my mother is not responding as expected, which could mean brain damage. If she can not breathe without a ventilator and will not ever recover we might have to make that decision, but how can I do that. They can't do brain scan tests until she is off the ventilator but they are having problems with her not being to breathe without it.

I have no clue how I am supposed to make a choice. I am praying for a miracle that will not require that choice be made and hopefully my mom will recover fully.
