LOL…what a title!! And pretty fitting if you knew my family!!

After the sweatshop, dinner, and birthday apple pie I came home to the most horrific smell in the hallway. UGH, it was NASTY!!! and definitely poop. I would say dog poop, but they really go little nuggets since being on raw, so maybe one of them has a sick tummy. Anyways, there was NO way I could clean that up! I couldn’t even go back into the hallway where it was, the smell was making me gag. I can still kind of smell it…let’s just say we are unprepared for carpet cleaning emergencies. Resolve is going on our shopping list! So the hubs clean it up…thank God he was home, I would have had to gag through it. Guess he’s good for some things…heh kidding of course!

We did the happy birthday thing for my dad. We ended up at Bahama Breeze. We were supposed to go to some new rib place, but my dad wanted to go to BB. It’s always good there…but we go a little buck wild on the appetizers. Plus, my nephew has braces and his teeth were hurting him, so he didn’t know what he could or should eat. So we got like 4 appetizers. lol Oh well, it was good. I got my usual, Chicken Jerk Pasta…so yummy!

Then we went to my parents and sang Happy Birthday to my dad and had apple pie. I am not a pie lover, so I skipped it…but I’m sure it was good!

Here’s a scrappy page of my dad blowing his candles out!!

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.

I changed things up a bit. I wasn’t posting credits right away because it took me a while to search for the links to the kits…esp if they were freebies.

So, I’m going to just list the name of the designers and/or the store they come from…I’ll also add the name of the kit if I know it.

If you’d like a link for the sites, please leave me a comment with your email address. I won’t publish it, or will edit the address out…and I’ll email you the link or post a reply comment.

I want to give credit, but right now I’m not organized enough to have the links handy.
