Manic Monday

July 28, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: scrappy | Leave a Comment

Ugh…Mondays suck, plain and simple. And this will be random…but that’s my style LOL

My husband has been having major issues with his depression lately and with the newest developments, that’s probably not going to get better for a while. Good thing he goes to see his pdoc this week.

My husband has a disease called Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome along with a handful of other autoimmune diseases. He’s on disability, although we have yet to see a check…grrr…but he’s still working. He’s had a number of TIA’s (mini strokes), has daily migraines, and omg I could go on and on. If you want to read his story it’s located at this link: http://www.apsfa.org/docs/APSFAVol9SprSum2008.pdf on page 9. It’s a mess and it’s been a long few years since his diagnosis.

We’ve been through a lot and will continue to get through things. So it’s ok. I don’t want to wallow or dwell on him and his disease…

Tonight was the season premiere of Paranormal State. I love this show, along with Ghosthunters. They both freak the heck out of me, but I really enjoy them. A friend of mine who also enjoys GH got a letter from someone telling her how she can “save” her and it had all this religion, like bible beating religion, crap in it and also things about the occult. Now why in the heck do people automatically assume that someone who finds paranormal things interesting worships the devil or is wiccan? Both my friend and I were raised Catholic. We both believe in God and Jesus and all of that. I am not sure if she calls herself “Catholic” or not, but I do. And FGS neither of us worship the devil or need “saving”…geez people, get a fricking grip already!!

Ok on to scrappy things. I still have that big ranty blog to write…I’ll get to it, I’m still mad about it!!

This layout took me FOREVER! omg I worked on it for a long long time. I may have to do the credits tomorrow because after a while I was just trying to find things that matched the color sceme. I found a BUNCH of new templates tonight that I cannot wait to use.

Ok here is…

2 Scrappy Layouts

July 27, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: scrappy | Leave a Comment

Today I did two layouts. I was going to blog earlier, but I just have time to post these two pages now. I have to get my lunch together for tomorrow and clean up the kitchen before Army Wives is on at 10:00.

Page #1 is my nephew. He had that long hair do that is so popular right now and then he got his head shaved! It’s such a change! His favorite color is orange, so that’s why I use a lot of oranges for pages I make of him. And the Digitreats Jump and Run kits have good oranges in them so I used them again for this page.

The second page is of my big puppa, Topaz. He LOVES his kiddie pool! And I love taking pictures of him in it! lol

Family Day Again

July 26, 2008 | By Heidi | Filed Under: family | Leave a Comment

My family is coming over today for a wedding invitation putting together party and also for a bbq dinner. I may try to take some photos…hehe They don’t like that though!

So I may not have a scrappy page today. It’s been a busy week, so I haven’t had time to make many pages this week, unfortunately.

I have a layout in my head and will make it as soon as I get some extra time this weekend.

I also have a huge ranty blog I’m itching to write. I think it will go hand in hand with the layout I have in mind.

Back to printing invites!
