Monday Oct 17, 2011

I should never make plans on a Monday, I had 2 appointments today and missed both of them.  They really need to call me an hour before my appt. or I will never remember.  I guess I need vitamins!

Cross your fingers

I've been working on a halloween scrapkit.  Hopefully it'l be done before the end of the month!

44 lessons life taught me

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God.. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

25. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ''In five years, will this matter?".

26. Always choose life.

27. Forgive everyone everything.

28. What other people think of you is none of your business.

29. Time heals almost everything.. Give time, time.

30. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

31. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

32. Believe in miracles.

33.. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.

34. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

35. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

36. Your children get only one childhood.

37. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

38. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

39. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

40. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..

41. The best is yet to come.

42. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

43. Yield.

44. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.

Friday Sept 16, 2011

Well, I didn't make it to the next round in the Studio contest.  Oh well, but at least it got me started designing kits.  I made a kitty tonight.  I'll be putting it in a kit sometime soon.

My paycheck was short 2 days this week.  When you only get to work 2days a week, it's a big deal!
We straightened that out real quick.  Working tomarrow too.

Went to see Contagion at the theatre.  It wasn't worth the price of admission. If I had to do it again, I would wait for it to come out in the redbox.

Later.

Victorian Daybreak


This is my first kit ever.  Download removed
If you have time, please leave a comment.
Thanks very much for looking.

Next Designer Contest

Well, I didn't make it to the 2nd round.  But am entering the 2nd chance contest.  The winner will get a scholarship to the design academy.  Which I could still use.  But am looking for a new job.  The one at the post office could be ending.  They are talking about closing for the winter.  But if it does it probably won't reopen.  And "I" think the government will come up with something ... like put a computer in every home deal.  Where we can pay our bills online, or something similar.  You know ... something crazy! Gotta laugh or cry, I prefer laughing.
If you hear of any jobs in my area (near San Antonio) give me a holler!  ok, Thanks

2nd chance round is a kit named Summer Afternoon, and I'll be working on that.  Wish me luck
