checking on resolutions

WOW...I made it through Lain Ehmann's LOAD challenge at Big Picture Scrapbooking's site. I completed 43 layouts during the month of Jan.
1. So, I have 140 layouts to complete to keep my goal of 183 completed layouts this year.
2. I have been sorting through my scrapbooking supplies..still have a long way to go but I am making progress to get it organized.
3. I haven't been able to get to my goal of cleaning, declutter, and organizing my house from top to bottom yet--my last day has been extended to Feb 29..(4 more weeks) So, that will start in March.
4. I am not making very good progress on healthy eating and exercising...but I am participating in a fitness challenge that starts on March 1 and goes through the end of May. (if you are interested in this challenge, leave me a comment and I'll get you more info)
5. I am trying to journal more..did pretty good the first part of Jan, but then stuck at the end of the month. Need to work on that.
6. photography--hopefully I can work on this in March too.
7. Spend more family time--a work in progress.

There is a new cool site. It is called My Creative Classroom-- www.mycreativeclassroom.com. They are having a big grand opening this week. You need to check it out..there are free classes and prizes!!!



You Act Like You Are 33 Years Old



You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

You're responsible, wise, and have enough experience to understand a lot of the world.



You're at the point in your life where you understand yourself pretty well.

You are figuring out what you want... and how to get it!

"I am a King"

I caught Addie performing in front of the mirror today. She had her Burger King crown on her head and guitar in hand.
The whole time she is singing "I am a King, I am a King...."
She cracks me up!!!!

Valentine Day project #2

Project # 2 from caffinatedcropper is to make photo blocks.

While I didn't have any of these blocks, I did find some pretty neat coaster sets at the $1 store.


And this is what I made:

And I can use the coasters for another project! For $3.00 I think I got a good deal!
