A whole lot today

So much to write about today. Where to start. Ok, life first. We didn't get the doom and gloom snow they predicted overnight. Which is great! However, it did go to the north and I think is going to affect my trip home to see the girls. Yesterday I was quite devesated by the whole thing as they were expecting 8 to 10 inches today, but I've calmed down. I think that I'll just change my travel time a little and leave early tomorrow morning instead. Give the road crews time to clean the area up some. Plus I didn't sleep all that great and still fighting whatever the old lady's trying to give me. So on the bright side, if I don't leave tonight, I'll get to come home and 1) visit all the blogs I don't get to read during the day & 2) scrap! So I'm trying to look at the brightside. It's not easy when you're a glass is half empty type of girl. However, if you don't hear from me today, that means I made a run for it and will have to jump on my mom's computer to catch up on the blogs.

I'm rereleasing my song quotes word art freebie. Why you ask, well that's the next thing to talk about. But if you want the word art click the preview or here.


Ok, now you have some love song word art, you can play along with Heather's CT on their latest challenge. It's an easy one, and perfect for this time of year. Just do a layout with the lyrics from ANY love song. For everyone who participates, they will get free QP's made from Heather's Con Amor kit that was in her grab bag. And there will be a random drawing for 2 gift certs. Check out her CT blog for more information and other CT member's layouts with love songs.
Here's one I did for the challenge, I love the Wings song Maybe I'm Amazed. Ok, I'm a Youtube idiot and can't figure out how to embed the video into my blog. But here's the link. It's a beautiful video for a beautiful lovestory.

Look here, we have a new store to shop at. Kristine (da wench) has opened her own store.
Stop by and browse through Kristine's new store. She's got some gorgeous stuff there. Just click the ad.
And Kiki has an awesome grab bag over at PDW that starts today. I've seen what's in it, unfortunatly I didn't have time to play with anything before the sale so I could show you a sneek peak, but for $2 it's a steal!!

Well I think I've gotten everything. Please hope the weather cooperates for me so I can see those little girls. Cuz if I do, that means I get new pictures and a whole new scrapping mojo. Enjoy your weekend all and stay safe.

Is it blogger or my employer????????

Had my blog all written out this morning in my mind. Did it on the way to work, half asleep still. I got here at 8:45. It's now noon and this is the first chance I've been able to get into my blog. And it wasn't just my blog, I couldn't leave comments for others on blogger either. Did anyone else have problems? I didn't think so, since it seemed some of my faves updated their blogs and they're on blogger too. I think my IT guys are messing with my system. First they made me take my PSE off because it slows down the system. (yeah, I guess they're right on that on) but if they mess with my ability to blog and leave comments on other blogs, well then I guess I may as well just look for a new job. lol. Ok, maybe not that serious, but I have a LOT of down time and if I don't have something to do, I will literally go nuts.

I went and saw my cousin and her 6 month old last night. It had been awhile since I'd seen them. Boy has he grown. But I guess that's what babies do. I took a ton of pictures but didn't get them uploaded into my computer cuz I was busy chatting away on Hello and uploading freebies last night. So hopefully tomorrow I'll have a few photos if not layouts to share with you.

Ok, let's get down to business. It's Humpday and that means lots of freebies. Here's a few that I was able to find. I was going to give you previews, but it is taking FOREVER to upload them. Grrrrr.

Heather Manning as a great paper sampler - if you like her Dirt Don't Hurt then check out her blog for a great Halloween treat.

Wenchd Grafix - Kristine has an alpha that goes with her Spiced Toffee kit.

KimB Designs has a beautiful mini kit that Kim did as a birthday present for Sylvia - one of her CT

Bunny has a sampler that cordinates with her beautiful new Perfectly Pansies kit.

Melanie Ann designs has a sampler - Chocoberry Creme - terrific colors on this!

Raspberry Road Designs - Susan has a cute collection of date bottle cap tops. She's also revisiting some of her older designs. These are only going to be available for a few days, so if you missed any of her fantastic designs - run, don't walk over to her blog to check them out. The insane thing is she's taking requests for scrappers. She is amazing!!!!

I was looking for a boy kit last night and found just the cutest one. It's a collection that Fishingmom is doing for her grandson Xavier. The bears in it are just adorable!!!! Ifyou have little boys this is perfect and the bears will work for girls too. Make sure you check it out.

Looks like the computer server is about to crash. Will update more later. Ok, I'm back and I've decided it's definately the company and the stupid server they have us on. grrrrr. And I lost the link to the Xavier kit.looking for it as I type.

I know I missed a ton of freebies. But then you all know where to go to find the best of the best.

I got a nice suprise and just wanted to send out a Thank You. Cate or Absoluteartist1 has me linked on her blog. That was quite a nice suprise for me. Cate, I sent you 2 different PM's. email me please!!!

Thanks again for reading my meager little blog, in such a sorry state today. Until next time - Scrap Happy!
