I got LUCKY!

For the last week or so I have been working on my email newsletter practically KICKING myself for not getting it out by the 1st like I wanted. I used to get it out at the end of the month for the NEXT month, but Stampin Up! stopped announcing their specials until the beginning of the month (after my email newsletter was sent and I don't want to fill everyone's inbox- I have friends that send forwards and it drives me batty so I try to be just as respectful and not CLOG anyone's inbox...). Well, I got LUCKY! They announced a promotion this morning for New Recruits that starts tomorrow! So, I updated my email, added the information and was set! There is a good reason for procrastination..... right?!

Hubby's work schedule is really crazy. He has Wednesday and Thursday off this week and I had to move my schedule around so that I will see him this week (he changed departments and is in training again- he'll be placed in his own store next week). So it's back to me and kids (our two dogs) most evenings. This will give me a good chance to get my room done with fewer distractions. Which is one of my goals this week!

The other morning I had a few moments before I went to work and had a chance to get creative! Made some fun things. Went to make a Bridal Shower Card and was COMPLETELY blank of ideas. Still whipped one up but fought with it a lot. I am definately one of those people that need to make 2+ of things so when I need something I am in a creative rut there's still something fabulous to grab!

On Friday I got a chance to go to Photographic Memories at church. Didn't take any of my own personal scrapbooking projects (by the time I would have packed/organized my own projects it would have been 10PM!) So I took Shawna's Well-Wish cards and a few other projects that I could work on away from the house. It was nice to get a chance to get out to work on stuff and get a chance to meet new people. Didn't get all that I wanted done with the Well-Wish cards because I loaned out my hole punch (I didn't want them to be a "tacky" size hole either....)

SU! Goals:
Finish Room (sand/paint walls, install counter and begin to move shelving/items)
Book to Look Envelopes (for Katie's SC on Friday! YEAH KATIE!)
Create a Watermark to put over images that I take pictures of so I don't get into trouble with the SU! copywrite policy
