Survival of the Fittest..
Well we have survived our first week of taxiing Caela to and from dance almost every single night. She is still in one piece and I have not had to argue too hard with her about going to bed by ten o'clock. She does it willingly. We went and toured Union Colony Prep. on Monday, I really like how they are teaching their students and I think it will be a huge improvement for Caela next year. I will go into detail more in another post when I have the curriculum in front of me.

I am all set for my class to start on Monday. Well, except for mentally. I skimmed through my book today and I wanted to hyperventilate when I looked in the lab manual. I haven't had a biology class in 18 years, so I was a little freaked out by it. I am hoping that it's not as hard as it looks.

I finished a new layout and some cards this week. Nothing too fancy, just trying to kill time. This looks much better in real life. I tried several times to scan it and this is the best one. So no complaining. :-D
Here's another one. All three cards are made with my SG kit. Seems to be the only kit I have been using lately, so I dropped my other kit that I get monthly. No sense in paying for something that's not being used.

This card is really simple, and truth be told, I don't like it very much. But I am not going to stress out about it, so Nah!


And here is the lone layout that I was able to create during the week. I received these really cool stamps and chipboard flowers from a friend on my scrap board. She is from the Netherlands and for the last six months she has sent me some Amazing things. It was for a Secret Sister swap that we joined and now we are becoming greater friends. I saw this Peanuts comic in the paper and immediately thought of Claudia and how she wasn't too thrilled about James being born. It reads as follows:
You are my younger brother and I am your older sister, and that's the way it's going to be all the days of your life... And don't tell me that you never think about it...I made it for James' baby book and there is extra journaling space under the photo with the ribbon attached.

Okay, now that I have filled you in on this weeks goings on, you all can now resume your regularly scheduled lives. HA!
