Scrapbook Saturday

I’ve not been feeling the scrapping mojo much this month but I did manage to get these two done this week from prompts for shimelle’s Blogging for Scrapbookers class.

hm

The little tags read “$60 spent for domain name” ($10 a year) and “including Iran, Egypt & Nigeria” (they were the countries that made me go “really?”)

The journaling is about how I am struggling with not taking photos everyday & considering restarting it for my birthday

    Hi Stacey, thanks so much for stopping by my blog and your kind comments! You have a great blog! And I am totally with you about taking photos; all or nothing is actually my middle name (oh and my birthday is in July too!). Great LO's, you can add Dubai as a visitor now, LOL!

    You may not feel the scrapping mojo, but you ARE indeed very creative! I especially love the second one, awesome!

    I'm not in my scrapbook mojo either. I need to be because I just got 350 pictures printed. :/

    These are both great. I was looking at my blogger statistics the other day, and I was surprised by the countries where I get hits from.

    What do you use to make your scrapbook pages?

    I am impressed that you have made layouts for the class at all! Sadly, too many of my 'voices' have prevented me from creating much at all this week ... perhaps there may be a chance later tonight! :-)

    I don't scrapbook but I am a crafter. I love your scrapbooks and may be inspired to start one!
    Great post.

    Great layouts, Stacey :-) Really interesting to read your stats! I've been getting lots of visits from Taiwan lately, I have no idea who it is....

    I use Paint Shop Pro X2 for my scrapping. I've been with PSP since version 5 back in 2001. Most people use Photo Shop Elements or Photo Shop CS though. They are largely similar with a few specific differences

    Yeah, Martha does not consider scrapping to be 'creative' enough so she is always distracting me with home decor projects.

Alphanumeric Blog Hop

I thought I was too late to sign up for it because I was a couple days behind on reading Mel’s blog, but then she contacted me and asked if I could do a post about punctuation. Punctuation? Yes. Punctuation. or perhaps I mean: Yes…punctuation. The first response is clear cut. Yes. It is about punctuation. The second is slightly less certain.  Yeeessss. I suppose it is about punctuation, of all things. It’s kinda rambly & disjointed but still, you must admit punctuation is the focus. Punctuation is very important when communicating on line – we have no sarcasm font or snarky response font – so punctuation helps fill in the gap. At least for me. I use ellipses … all the time. Sometimes they mean “and yes, here is the punch line” or “here is the sarcastic bit”. Usually they just express a general dubiousness about the whole thing, such as in my example, which is in line with their accepted use to suggest faltering or fragmented speech accompanied by confusion, inse

Mayhem decided to take up knitting this week. He found he had plenty of time to knit in the car while we ran errands Oops! Dropped a stitch The dinosaurs were very busy the other afternoon. Once again they requested muffins and they pitched in to make them. Though there was some conflict over who got to stir. Rumors of muffins attracted other dinosaurs And there was some more conflict over control of the bowl The winners circle the bowl in a victory dance But they shouldn't celebrate too soon, because over on the kitchen table trouble is brewing. I'm told they are just getting ready to cut the muffins into equal parts so everyone has a share. but I'm dubious. visit Lotus at www.sarcasticmom.com for more Weekly Winners

A month or so ago I cleaned out my freezer . Yesterday I cleaned my refrigerator. This is a different thing than just cleaning it out. Cleaning it out mostly involves taking most of the food off of the shelves, sorting it and putting the good stuff back. Maybe wiping up some visible spills. But not getting behind or under things or dealing with the bottles on the door. Cleaning it involves taking all the food out, all the bins out, plus disassembling the shelves and scrubbing them & the inside of the fridge all clean. This happens as rarely as the freezer cleaning for much the same reasons – it’s cold, my hands cramp up from the scrubbing and the solid yet still gel like substances that accumulate in dark forgotten corners are a PITA to get clean. Plus the heavy tempered glass shelves are too big to fit in the kitchen sink and have to be washed in the bathtub. Which means I then I have to wash the bathtub. And mop. I never manage to clean the fridge without getting dirty wate
