I don't do well...

I don't do well at keeping promises to myself! I tried to do the pics of the day and it lasted all of 3 days lol! I have come to the conclusion that I really don't have enough exciting things going on in my life to take pics about. So I am just going to make a conscience effort to takes pics fairly regularly and if I miss a day or two, so be it.

So...another New Years Resolution of mine was to head back to the gym. The kids, Thomas and I headed to the "Y" today. They all went swimming while I worked out for about an hour. It felt fantastic and I tried a little harder today than I had been in previous workouts. I was inching into it but now I want to feel the pain!! I'm sure my body will be in traction tomorrow.

Hayley did get hurt today swimming. A flutter board hit her in the eye and by the time I dropped her off at her BFF's birthday party she had a pretty nice shiner developing. Poor thing! It always happens to her!

Tomorrow is the Digital Scrapbooking "class" that Faye is putting on! I can't wait to give it a try! I will have to fill you all in about that later!

I am off to relax for the evening! Have a nice night!

POTD - "Red" - January 21

I was dusting today and the last sign of Christmas is slowly starting to wilt away. This "red" poinsetta was so full when I got it.

POTD - "Change" Jan20th

While it was a historical day in the USA, with many (hopefully positive) changes to come, up here in my little house in Canada, we had some changes going on as well. My little guy lost his 1st top tooth! He's growing up so fast! This makes him worthy of being my POTD for Jan 20th

Bedtime Story - Dream

This is my newest bedtime story. I just started it and it seems good so far. Everyone I know says it's a great book!

Small Present but BIG Deal!

I am jumping on board the Picture of the Day wagon. Better late than never.

It was my husband's birthday and although the present was small it was a very BIG deal. His favourite hockey team (Vancouver) plays in Toronto next month. I got him two tickets AND it will be Sundin's return to Toronto ice since going to play for the Canucks!

The smile on my hubby's face makes this picture worthy of being the POTD!

January 13th

I hope everyone has settled into the New Year!

First I want to thank Danielle and Tara for stopping by my site! Danielle is such a sweetheart and having her brightening up the message board with posts is always a nice thing to log on to! And Tara has been actively posting the most amazing scrapbooking kits for such a GREAT price!! I do hope you will check them out! Tara, I will be emailing you later this week! I wouldn’t mind getting my paws on one of those kits!
I received an email from a friend a couple weeks ago. She knows how I love to scrapbook so she sent me a link to her friend’s website. It is similar to "Creative Memories" or "Stamping Up" but it’s the digital version! Needless to say anything to do with scrapbooking catches my eyes so I am having a "party" to learn more about it at the end of this month! Check out the site if you get a chance! It looks very cool!

I am at work right now so I will be logging off. Feel free to leave your comments!
Have a great week!
Michele

Happy New Year!

So I have a New Years Resolution to get this site off the ground! I started it during a busy time (before Christmas) and I wasn't able to put as much into it as I should have prior to the holidays. But now with Christmas behind us and the long winter ahead of me I certainly will find the time to get on here more often to update and work at making this a successful craft community.

I see that we have more visitors to this site fairly regularly. I would love for you all to come and say hello on the message board! If you have an Etsy store, Ebay store or home-based business and you wish to get more free advertising please feel free to post it in our classifieds or feel free to upload your work in our gallery and share with others on our message board.

If you just have old supplies that you want to sell to get back some money or you want to earn some extra cash for something new, please feel free to post your unwanted supplies as well.

I am always looking for someone to feature on the site. So starting in January any new members on my message board will automatically be entered into a random monthly draw to be featured crafter of the month. This will include a full article about the artist and free featured advertising on the site for the month they are chosen.

So enough about the site for now! I did get some scrapbooking done through the holidays - another New Years Resolution for me!! Here are my most recent pages.

Please leave a comment if you want!
I hope everyone had a safe and happy holidays. Happy New Year to you all.
