So....

I have been sitting here thinking about what I want to write about. There is so much NOT going on that it makes for difficulty in coming up with something to say.

The kitchen is finally back to normal. New fridge and compactor are in. Old appliances out. The fridge is wrapped in plastic and sitting on the front porch for all the world to see and the old compactor is on the back porch looking for either the dumpster or a new home in the shop. Will says we really look like rednecks now. Hopefully we can sell the fridge and the tv (which has been pushed into Em's room) and make a little $$.

Tori has decided to quit her job. The owner fired the manager last week and several of the other employee's have been tendering their notice as well, and she didn't want to be the only teenager working there. I don't see the business being open much longer anyway, but I wish she would have held out through the month anyway.

Tomorrow Will, Tori and I are headed to Danville to Centre College for Junior Day on Saturday. Because of the time difference, the distance and the early start we are heading up after school tomorrow and staying the night. I booked us a room close to the school, and I even found a scrapbook store within driving range. Em is staying to go to a school dance and then will be staying the weekend with Amber in Bowling Green.

I finally downloaded the handout for the Be Happy class on BPS and sat down last night to work on it. I really liked that it was so technique based and I had alot of fun with it. I still have a little bit to finish on it and then I need to decide what to put in it, but it gave me an excuse to break out the Basic Grey Urban Prairie paper that I have been hoarding for a few months now. I still have a couple of classes that I purchased and haven't downloaded yet, and I have 2 workshops that will be starting later this month to get ready for + I have been hoping to do the Here, There, Everywhere class that Shimelle Laine and TwoPeas are doing. I have printed out all the prompts to this point and I will take them with me this weekend to read in the car. It really is an easy one to do and it is just a matter of going through all the pictures I have and printing them out.

I found a good deal the other day and uploaded 170 pictures to Shutterfly to print. With the code I had I only had to pay for 20 of them, and I also got a free picture book that I put together for the family. According to the email I got today they are ready and shipping. Yea! New pictures to actually hold in my hands!

2 little dogs got dumped off at the house yesterday. They are both female but older dogs. The one looks alot like the dog that played in the movie "Because of Winn-Dixie" they are the smilingist dogs I have ever seen and they want to ride with everyone that shows up. I don't know as we will be keeping them, but will at least keep them through the weekend. Will is not thrilled with them at all but I think that they will grow on all of us.

Must go find something to eat!

Wow, that is a fantastic deal from shutterfly. Around Christmas they had something like that going on. I was going to do it then but had so much going on that I didn't.
