Today’s blog post will be about a bunch of random things…but isn’t it always? haha
I’m a member of the UAW and today we had a big meeting. Our contract is up and so we had a vote today. These meetings are always the same. I hate going to them, but I understand why we need them and everything. Generally my sister goes with me, but this time I went alone…and wouldn’t you know it…in the middle of the dam meeting I start to feel a panic attack coming on!! Yikes! So I quick get a pill from my purse and plan my get away to the bathroom. I ended up calming down, so I didn’t have to take the pill, but I really hate how those attacks just kind of sneak up on me for no apparent reason! Hopefully all of this union stuff works out. I don’t want to strike…
I have been all over the internet downloading scrapbook freebie kits from many talented artists who share their creations with us. I am so thankful that people offer these kits and templates free of charge to us…however…I wish that people who make tagger sized kits would indicate that they are tagger sized. The difference between the regular sizes and the tagger sizes are HUGE…like 3600 for regular and 800 for tagger. So you can’t even use some of the elements because they don’t blow up well to scrapper size. It’s unfortunate too, because some of these tagger sized kits come with some pretty adorable elements!!! I hate to complain…so maybe we’ll call this “venting” but I really wish they’d say what size the kit is…or even the paper size. Some do, and I am so thankful…but I hate when I am so excited to use a cute kit and then come to find out it’s so teenie tiny!!
I don’t know if I’ll have a scrappy page to post today. I’ve kind of been creatively challenged lately. I don’t know what it is, but the last couple pages I’ve started I’ve just deleted. I can’t seem to make anything that I really like. I’ll have to try again.
I saved this entry and started working on a scrappy page and here’s what I came up with.
This is my niece in Australia. My SIL sends us pictures and unfortunately, they are really small files so they don’t blow up too well for scrappy pages. (Probably should use some tagger sized kits for those! heh). I’m not too thrilled with how this came out, but I decided to finish it rather than scrap it. No pun intended.
