Get the lil' violins playing...

Ok, so, I have NOT been scrapping - at all! Lil' ideas pop into my head here and there... nothing. I have missed quite a few challenges that I had wanted to try... nothing. I have a list of swaps to do...

<---I have treated myself to a lot of cool new scrap things... and don't even get me started on the Christmas card list... nothing. LOL...

<--- I've been peeking in and enjoying a lot of blog-hopping :) I know, I know, whine, whine, whine... but it seems like I'm not the only scrapper to lose her way... Ok... I'll admit - I have also been a lil' distracted. As some of you know - my original hobby and passion is reading! I'm a HUGE book-lover!!! I {heart} ALL kinds of books and genres (... go ahead, you can ask my sis! LOL!). I just finished re-reading Nights at Rodanthe by Nicholas Sparks - now it's a movie!... and I also re-read The Secret Life of Bees - also a movie! Almost every book I have originally read and loved turns into a movie... and instead of going to see the movie - I re-read them! LOL! Sooo, I have got hooked on the new Twilight books. Well, actually... just the first book, hee, hee. It is soooooo good :) I have Tonya to thank:

Thanks Tonya! It's ALL her fault! LOL!
Her blog and Twilight challenges got me soooo very curious :)~ I just had to read it for myself! It is one of the best written books that I have read in a loooong time!!! It only took me 2 1/2 days to read it! It was a real page turner :) I'm off to get the rest of the books tomorrow morning... oh boy! (Click on the first book to get info about the movie!... click on the 2nd book w/the apple on it to check out the books at B&N.com).


Ok, ok... no more scrap-whine for tonight... I will try to get back in my scrap saddle tomorrow - I HAVE to start my swaps and plan out my Christmas list, etc... and get all those things that I have said done and complete! I've really missed it - just haven't had the mojo... I guess I just needed a bit of a break...


Wish me luck! ~ Thanx!!!

PS! - Thank you ALL so much for the get-well wishes! :) The boys are finally feeling better - still kinda boogie-ish, lol, but they are back to themselves - full force! They have A LOT of making up to do! LOL... patience... I need more patience! :)

Hi There Margie! Thank you so much for your kind comment on the b-day card my hubby made me. I hear you on the lack of mojo though. Since I got back from the cruise I have no motivation. The cards I have done were due to deadlines and they weren't my best. But hey....if my husband can do it....so can you!! LOL.
How about joining in on my Loonie Stampers Challenge this friday? That might help get the creativity flowing? But no pressure...just a suggestion. Thanks again and Thanks for visiting my blog!!!!!!
