The NEWS!

On November 1st my youngest daughter Ashley and her boyfriend came over with news. I'm going to be a Grandma on (or near) July 1, 2007. Although this came as quite a shock to us, they are very happy so we are happy for them. Since Ashley's insurance is on mine, because she is a full time student, they won't be able to get married till after the baby is born but they are planning the wedding shortly after. I'm so looking forward to a new little one in the family! I only hope that I can come close to being the wonderful grandma that my mom was to my girls.

My Creative Space!

My youngest daughter is the manager of the video department at our local Marsh but unfortunately the company is going through changes and needing to make necessary cuts to keep the company above water. My daughter is being transfered to another department but she is in charge of closing down her department first. They have these AWESOME heavy duty 3-drawer units that they keep all their videos/DVD's stored in and I asked what was going to happen to those after the closing.


What? They are being sold to whoever wants them?? ME ME ME!!!! I WANT THEM!


The store manager asked how many I wanted (up to 6) and I told him 6 of course! He said, "They are $10 each." WHAT???? And I can only have 6???? Ok, ok.....I know I should be considerate of others who want some too.


So........I brought them home and totally reorganized my scrap space. WOW!! What a difference!


Here's my new room. What do you think?
