my busy month!

sorry i haven't been blogging much lately--

i have had the busiest month! i was asked to be on 3 guest CTs and i am having a BLAST!

saraamarie at oscraps released a gorgeous new collection called "naturals":



it is so beautiful--the papers are gorgeous and the elements are so unique!

also, sandra boddington at SBG invited me to be on her guest CT! her stuff is just gorgeous! here is a layout i did using her "loopy loop" kit and rachael giallongo's "punctuation" layout template:



and finally, i am a STUDIO TEMP at SBG this month! it has been a dream come true gig--these ladies are so wonderful, and i feel so spoiled & lucky to have been a part of them even for a month! they have some wonderful things going on over there, most notably the "queen of the crop" contest! go to http://www.scrapbookgraphics.com/queenofthecrop.htm for more info!

we are all home today--my ds had a fever and sore throat this morning. of course, i gave him so motrin, and he is acting totally fine now. i needed a day at home, even though it is going to make the last week & a half of class a little more complex to have taken the day off....

i had a productive class yesterday. i decided to scrap what was on the syllabus and instead i took in a couple of images from the VA tech tragedy and i had them write in response to that. then we just talked about it. i could tell they just really needed to talk. after all, they are college students, and it is difficult to imagine such a terrible thing happening in our own university. i mean, as we sit there in class together, the possiblity now exists in our mind that a crazy person could come in & start shooting...i am praying for all of the VA tech family. such a senseless thing. so senseless.

i went to the doctor yesterday, and he suggested that we think about artificial insemination. i mean, it is still a ways down the road, but discussion is almost moot. dh is opposed to more intervention. and i am going to have to try and deal with that. i have to have faith that God is in control, but some days that is a hard pill to swallow, and today is one of those days.

i hope all of you have a good thursday.
