    Love these! In the first one, love the hair, love the journaling, love the layout! Okay, so I love it all. I also really like "sweet." Nice to see flowers and bright colors on a boy page. Finally, the 11 things layout if very eye-catching; the design highlights everything in a pleasing way.

    Great pages love the "Sweet" page - great journalling and a fab title - want to try that (text within text) sometime.  The 11 things is fun too - though by the looks of your journalling it may not be working as a project - funky page design though!

    Is it wrong I was disappointed that the blue arrow hair wasn't used for the professional photo?

    Oh, brilliant :) I love the 11 things idea for a layout, but they're all great!

    Thank you! I really have to strain my ingenuity with girly kits from designers I CT for.

    As a project, it needs help, but I'm working on it.  The 'sweet' is word art from Darcy Baldwin at Sweet Shoppe Designs.  I love the idea but Paint Shop Pro makes text within text a bit too challenging for me

    We held off on the blue hair specifically so we'd miss the professional photos

    Thank you! I love paper blocking but getting it all to match up frustrates me.

    It was for a challenge where they wanted you to use arrows pointing to things in a numbered list & I thought it went well with a recent post topic

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
