Last Day of School

Today was the last day of school until Aug/Sept. My son got out of school early, so I picked him up and we went to Papasitas Cantina in San Antonio. Long drive. The food was delicious. Thomas had fajitas and I had Schrimp Brochette. Yum. I took pics of the occasion. Will post those later. I will be working on my brag book pages this weekend, so I am hoping to get some new freebies out there soon. I think I have about 20 pages. It's time to go to bed. Goodnight.

Started Insulin Today...

I've been diabetic now going on 8 years, and today (May 21, 08)started using insulin. Bummer, huh?! Well I'm going to get back on the Kimkins Diet, it's the only one that has worked for me so far, I got off track, it's time to resume that. I need to lose weight and get off of diabetic meds. It's worked for others, so I believe I too have that chance. Lifestyle changes coming.

I passed my postal exam! Amazing to me, when I took the test I thought I had flunked it badly. But to my amazement I passed. Now I am on the 'List'. I could get called in at any time, but it could also take up to a few years, bummer. Oh well, I'm on the list! Woohoo.


I got accepted on a new Creative Team the other day. Melissa Daniel's Designs, there are links along side my main page on the left. I hope to eventually design for stores around on the internet, but I feel I need more training and practice. I'm a little bit of a perfectionist. So that might take a while. But I will be really good when I get there!

Buyers Beware

Hello, gee I found this digital scrapbooking store with less than good quality stuff. I must admit I bought 2 kits, boy am I sorry! Please check out their freebies carefully. They are supposed to be at 300dpi, said so on the main page. Well when I checked they are mostly 72ppi.

The owner of the store said,
Thank you for your patience, I am very sorry you were confused over the file
size and dpi. Upon investigation I did find that while the dpi of the items
in question were not the standard 300 the actual physical size more than
compensated i.e. HRLD_0508SDK_paper6- 9.jpg - 72 ppi were 50in x 50in when
changed to 300dpi are 12in x 12in.

Does that make it sound like it was my fault for being 'confused' about the size? 72ppi = 72ppi to me. And still if you zoom in ...any.... it is very pixelated, no smoothness going on here. They did however change the ppi to 299ppi, but the pixelation is still there. I did however ask for a refund, which wasn't addressed in the email. I would totally hate to see any of my friends go there and be as dissappointed as I am. Still am. So... here's the link. Try the freebies first, they should reflect their true work and their quality. But do be careful.
