Lost and Crying

This is the most difficult blog post I have ever had to write. My 8 year old German Shepherd Male, Ryan's Rebel passed away suddenly two days. I am a loss for feelings and only feel totally numb. My husband and sister in law have taken him to the crematiorium so we can have his ashed returned to us. He was a big, sweet, loveable, tiring, wild attention wanting, generous to a fault, big BABY! He whined most of the time to attention or something just to hear himself whine. He was energetic and crazy - but we all loved him dearly. Being that I have no children, my pets are my babies - and this is just devastating to me. The house is so quiet without him. The other three dogs are very quiet in nature and he was the energy behind all of their play. I know he is safe on the Rainbow Bridge and my Mom has already greeted him and welcomed him - but I want him and for that matter more than anything, my Mom, here with me! I'll miss him forever. Rebel was a true southern gentlemen of a dog.

I'm begging for Autumn to arrive

Hi there, I'm hating the heat, wanting rain and I'm begging for Autumn to arrive. So with that spirit, I made a Halloween layout. The credits are as follows:

Thank you ladies, for your wonderful toys that I get to play with! Visit them, leave them love!
This is what I created - I like it - hope you do too!

Paranoia and a Payoff!

Well now ain't that a pretty title? My paranoia was true - sometimes you need to go with your gut instincts. Today, something happened that I thought was a tell tale sign and it was. I confronted the boss and she lied at first and then left for lunch. When she came back, she called me into her office and confessed! What I had thought was a tell tale sign was REAL! And it would have been devastating to me, but all in all - the honesty helped us both! I do have a good feeling now, still a little scared, but way less than before! Thanks to everyone who has supported me through all of this! I've still got stuff to load but I couldn't seem to get photobucket to work for me this weekend - so I'm hoping still to get it done!

Sorry, been a while

Hi there, Sorry it's been a while since I wrote. Been a bit busy with things at home. We are having a water leak problem - nothing serious - easy fix - but it took a few things to find it! But it's getting fixed this weekend. So I was a bit preoccupied with that! All is appears to be fine, but I'm staying quiet, in case! I had bloodwork this morning - just normal early stuff - will get the results next week. I've got some new scrapping things to show off - but that will be this weekend. Can't wait to share my new treasures.

Uncomfortable

Well I titled this post Uncomfortable - because I am. I am having serious issues at work and feeling very unhappy. I'm even thinking of leaving this job. The family is no longer feeling like they want me here. I'm wondering about my paranoia cause I know I have issues going on in my life - but for pity sake! It is about time to move on from a mistake a month ago! I haven't made one since and I've worked hard at getting things to stay safe, comfortable, quiet, no issues with telling tales or anything! I'm so tired of feeling used and abused!

My Jason

I am so thrilled I finally found a quick page for my Jason. Now, he isn't mine, but I sure would love for him to be. He is my best friend's little boy - not so little anymore! Going to put a rock on his head - maybe a boulder! He is just a sweetheart and so wonderful. I have loved him since before he was even born and loved him more and more since. I have always called him my nephew - I'm not his auntie or even related - but I love him so much I should be! I saw this Plopper as Soto calls it - isn't that a great word? At her site Soto Creations. She does a lot of freebies - and only asks for a simple thank you! Isn't that wonderful of her? I get to play with new creative toys all the time because of generous people like her. Now, if only everyone would say thank you! Where did manners go in the USA! Oh well, on to a nicer subject - my Jason! Here he is - SMILE Darling! I think your Mom is going to love this as much as I do

My First Template - Polka Dot Memories

My goodness I tried making a template! Let's see if anything can be done with it!

I haven't yet created anything myself - but I'm working on it.

Let's see if I can do this right. It's 12" by 12" and on layers created in Paint Shop Pro. The preview is below and you can download it HERE.



Please share with me anything you make - I'd love to see it.
