ONCE AGAIN TO MUCH ON MY PLATE

OKAY .. I need to finish what's on my plate before adding any more ingredients.. I made myself a promise.. No forum posting for a week for starters. No shopping on the internet, Finish the two cards deals I have going before I sign up for the next. There is no way I could have finsihed another one I was gonna join last month.. I have mandatory overtime next week at work. I have month end for my hubby's books and I have our bills, laundry, etc.. Yes I hired a cleaning person but she does her thing and dust baseboards and stuff but you still have the everyday life to deal with such as laundry . I have some crates from Az when we went that i haven't unpacked.. I have National Scrapbook day I bought these 12 x 12 things to get prepared I have to say i have taken 20 minutes the last couple morning going thru photos so i have a few pages like four already.. I want to take more than i need in case I have blocked thoughts. I am working with the web lady for the fun site I will have it' s mainly for fun not for profit. I feel this would make me create more of my own stuff etc.. if I was tied into it but you never know. I have a housewarming to go to . A business brunch at the Queen Mary sunday.. and National Scrapbook Day is just around the corner.. I have had some serious no sleep weeks not to long ago averaging about 5 a nite.. and this week I've been pretty close to that with about 5 1/2 to 6 So I am gonna try and search blogs on lunch just so that I have some kind of entertainment and keep up on everyone. I need to start making sure walking is in my daily routine all the wieght I lost I gained back So I am gonna start again cause my cruise is three mnths away so I need to make sure to do something.. It's grill season so that would help a ton... Rather than comfort food.. I thought about doing WW online but it's not reporting to someone.. But I don't see where I have the time for the meetings sometimes I only take 1/2 lunch at work it's not enough time.. Anyways I 'll figure something out.. I really give Kuddos to those who excercise regularly and have lost and kept it off etc.. So that is what I will evaulate as well during my time.. So I have a lot to do and better hack the list off one at a time.. I want my scrapspace in order.. so I have planned to make sure that either in the a.m or pm I spend 15-30 minutes in there that's the only way I can.. I need things to slow down. So those are my plans.. Hopefully I can get it all done.. I feel overwhelmed so I think hacking them one at a time and curving some of my fun will help to. This way I can go back to having fun again.. Shoot I am so far behind on a couple forum on all theunread posts I hate to miss out on things.hahahaha But that can wait another week.

REST IN PEACE LITTLE GUY.. WE WILL MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!!







Poor Furbee is in Doggie Heaven

Poor Furb... AKA Little bug, Little buddy... We were on the way to Arizona and he suffered Heart Attack / Stroke there isn't much they could do it was pretty bad. He was pretty lifeless we were 80 miles away from anything.. he was like a fish out of water when you put him down. It would be your kidneys they say if it was the food scare. And he suffered about 2 1/2 weeks ago what they called a seizure and figure he might be having conjective heart failure.? We never thought he would go this soon. I felt he had more life in him. He can't be replaced he was a huge part of our daily routine and we are not adjusting probably as well as him.. I know that he is probably with a couple of his friends there in doggie heaven and one day will get to see him again He was the best dog we ever had from a child I never thought I'd be so attached to an animal as him. We are adjusting and my husband that dog adored him.. There could be 1000 people that knew furb but he would go with my husband he made him feel safe and secure and knew he would always be there to his rescue it was so sad that we could not do anything.. we came home to a dog not jumping on us soon as we walked thru the door his pillow , his blanket and toys.. It's gonna take a while..

I FOUND THIS QUOTE and I really liked it.. It kinda reminded me of the movie MEAN GIRLS.
I am gonna do a nice layout with it of me and hubby.. but the other one.huh could gather the information for it.. Besides why would I want to keep that part in a book the mean part. So I will make a layout of hubby and I.. When I first seen it reminded me of the Mean. but I put thought into and can use it for the good.
