It's a New Year, which means I have resolutions to break...

So here it is January 2008. I went back and checked my history posts and noticed I only had two blog entries for 2007. How pathetic is that????? What a slacker I am. So I now officially make the following resolution, that I am sure will end up by the wayside in about three months, to keep this blog updated. Keep your fingers, toes, and any other flexible body parts crossed that I stick to this.

I am proud to say that I made it through the second section of Anatomy and Physiology, with a B even. Words cannot express how happy I am to be done with that class. Amazingly, I even remembered what I learned in it. Pretty impressive, I must say. I am taking Cultural Anthropology and a baby Math class. Actually, I should be working on a paper for the AC class, but I just don't feel like it, so I will wait until the very last minute to get it done. I work better under pressure anyway.

Caela is really enjoying her new school. She has being doing great grade wise, and I haven't had to threaten her with bodily harm for any attitude issues. I am still counting down the days until I get to evict her from her room and expand my scrappy space. Just four more years........woo hoo. Winky 2 She still has her five million hours of dance class per week, she has a couple of competitions and performances coming up this month. If I figure out how to upload a video clip, I will make sure to post it to the blog.

I have decided to make time on Friday nights to scrap until my little heart is content. So I will post a few things that I have worked on the last couple of months.

I guess I should mention that I finally found the time to get my hair cut. Yep, after growing it out for seven years, I had 13 inches chopped off. I kind of miss it, but I made sure to donate it to Locks of Love, so it was worth it.



There were a couple of Fridays that I didn't feel like scrapbooking so I made cards instead. I originally was making them for a "sticker challenge" that my friend Pamala had posted, but then I took it a little further and just wanted to use up the endless amount of stickers that I had accumulated over the years. They are so cute when you get them, but you never actually use them, now do ya. Well, all I can say is that it was sort of a blessing that I was having sleeping issues or else I would never had made as many as I did. These are just a few of my favorites, I think I ended up making about 30. Don't be surprised if some of you end up seeing these in person since I have to get rid of them now.







There that should tide you all until I can update my blog again. I know how riveting my life is and how each of you stay up late pondering what exciting things I will make/talk about next. Roll
