First Freebie- Part 2

OK so I REMEMBERED to get up and post the second part of the freebie this morning=) But first things first this poor kit doesn't have a name! As of right now I am just calling it "Mego's Birthday" so I would LOVE some suggestions on names for this kit=) The person to come up with a name will get a special Add-on! Would y'all like to see a couple LO's I did with this kit?





OK so here is the second part of the kit, the papers(and if you looked at my LO's that gives you a sneak preview of some of them=):

A Freebie

OK, so do y'all remember back in September the previews of the kit I was making for my baby sis's birthday? Well, I have now figured 4Shared and have decided to give it away as a freebie. I am going to start with the Pink Alpha. And going to TRY to remember to give away one part per day. There are 4 parts, 2 alpha's, elements, and Papers. So here's a preview of the alpha, made with one of the paper's & elements & a pic of my baby sis and I=); just click the preview to Download the alpha.

Mom's birthday, Lack of directional skill, etc

I'm having a bit of a rough day today because today would have been my Mom's 51st birthday. Unfortunately she'll always be 48 (the age she died at). I miss her so much and especially on days like these.

Oh, and I am still so tired from my trip on Saturday. OK so a friend and I went over to Boca Raton on Saturday for a workshop. Now since that is on the opposite coast it should be a 4-5 hour drive, right? We ended up getting a little off track in the morning, now did I forget to mention we left at 4:30 AM because the workshop started @ 10, but it only took us about 5 1/2 hours. OK so I figured with my total lack of directional skills that wasn't too bad. We had a great day and left Boca about 5 PM, now if your following even if it took the same amount of time that it had taken that morning, we should have been home at 10:30 PM. Would you care to guess what time we got home? 1 AM, it took us EIGHT HOURS to get home!!!!! Needless to say 12 + hours of driving has left me a bit sore and tired.

OK so those are my rants of the day. Are we ready for the next batch of CT LO's (that I had every intention of posting Saturday evening but if you read above you'll see why that didn't happen=)

Leslie Hasenkamp's Designs:

This one seemed appropriate to start off today with=)

Ever have one of those days....

Ever have one of those days where the minute you woke up you wished you could go back to sleep? Crawl under the covers and just stay there. That's the kind of day I am having. I woke up at 7am to find the nagging headache from the night before, which I contemplated getting up to get several ibuprofen for but couldn't find the energy, had turned into a full scale, bordering on migraine headache. Now, of course, I regret the decision not to get up but I had just started to drift off when I felt the twinges and with the trouble I've been having sleeping lately getting up most likely would have meant staying awake another 2-3 hours.

Then at 7:30 Cheri showed up with the baby and asked if I could take Mia to school, normally I have no problem with this (we only live 5 minutes from her private school) but when you can barely function because your head is throbbing getting dressed and driving don't sound like an appealing aspect. Oh and not to mention Mia was in the car screaming her head off that she did NOT want Auntie yaya to take her to school she wanted her mommy to take her to school. Which of course she continued to scream and cry at the top of her very powerful 4 year old lungs when she came into the house. Now I have been having to take her to school at least 2 times a week ever since school started 2 months ago. Of all the days to pick to scream and cry she has to pick the day where my head is going to explode.

OK well enough from me I am sure you want to see some of the LO's I've been promising? I'm going to be breaking them down into sections by CT so as to make posting a bit easier and not as long. We'll go in no specific order so let's start with, hmmm whichever folder is first...

And since they're arranges alphabetically that would be Brandi White:

Ok so since it's been awhile since I posted my CT LO's you'll have to forgive me if I forget any.
