And another...

I wanted to add this with the first post, but somehow it got deleted.

Scrapbookers (and non-scrapbookers, too ;) )- I need your help. I'm working on a page with Isabelle in her dance costume, and I can't think of a good title. "Dance" is too generic, and besides, I've already used it for another layout :)

OK- I decided to try to add pictures using Picasa. To quote the Staples ad "That was easy" (we actually have a button at work that says that! :) ). So, this is the girls on the one day so far this year that we've actually had some snow- they had a lot of fun- at least for the first half hour before they got cold, and their mittens got all wet. No where in town could we find any waterproof mittens! They probably all sold out in September- sigh...

A bunch of random thoughts...

I just found a link to a funny website Recipes of the Damned. Meat milk-shake anyone? Ick...

The top of my desk at work in not yet in sight- but close. I found my phone book for the first time in a week or more.

We're letting Isabelle play hooky from swim lesson tonight- it wasn't worth the argument (and besides it's really cold and we didn't feel like going out, anyway).

After all the uproar over Rebecca and the panties vs pullups overnight (which we solved by putting her to bed in panties, and DH snuck in and changed her into a pullup when she was sleeping soundly), she managed to stay dry all night, and go potty this morning. You just never know.

I've got things I should be doing (but probably won't), so that's all for now.

Am I crazy?

Probably. :) In addition to this being the busy time at work, and the girls being super challenging right now, I've signed up to do New Kids on the Block- a 3 week challenge for new digiscrappers, at DSP and I'm doing DSLR for newbies at Scrapbook Graphics. (This is in addition to all that cleaning I'm supposed to be doing- when I left work today, I think my desk looked even worse, if that's possible!).

We're in the midst of melt-down city with both girls right now. Is it something in the air? Or a phase they're both going through at the same time? Ugh- whatever it is, I hope it quits soon. Isabelle did NOT want to go to preschool this morning and did NOT want to go to dance class tonight. And now Rebecca does NOT want to wear a pull-up to bed (we started potty-training in earnest this weekend, with panties, and lots of accidents). Although, I guess it's fair- Mommy does NOT want to go to work tomorrow, either...I'm just sucking it up and dealing with it better than they are :)

Cleaning and organizing....

Goal #1 for the week- clean up my desk at work so that an avalanche is not imminent.
Goal #2- continue organizing the basement area where I'm supposed to be working out (but am not presently)
Goal #3- continue organizing my craft area- notice a trend here?

Trying it out...

I have a bad track record with journals. I start out enthusiastically, and then things fall off pretty quickly. But, I'm on a blog visiting kick right now- so why not?
