You do such a good job with this style of scrapping. If I didn't know better, I would swear that you took a ready made page and put your photo on it. And I love the way you did that photo...I may need to steal that.

@faerywings I love Cait's rat-too! It looks like it is a big one!

Good morning all. I am typing on my brand new laptop this morning. I have about a million things to do but this morning I am enjoying this new laptop. It has a touch screen, which I am sure I will never use. The keyboard is a good size...this is a 17 inch. Today, as I retire, I return my...

Well the memories captured here...perfection! I love how you have documented your younger years. Your journaling is on point here.

Love your title...fits the mood of the page perfectly because "life is like that" for sure. Love the paper color and the stitching and the flags. Your creativity is back for sure.

@Jam-on-toast Oh my goodness! What a delightful story! Love the black and white solution. I definitely want to hear all about this trans-continental move! I'll go spend some time in your gallery today to see if I can find out the backstory. Anyway, welcome back. And thanks for the hint!

Thank you Debby. I appreciate your kindness.

My SIL died at about 1:00 today. They will make the arrangements tomorrow. When I came home, my laptop had been delivered. I was too tired to even get excited about that. But, after a long nap, I fixed supper and then got the laptop set up. I am pretty excited. It was very easy. I don't...

@AK_Tracy yes, my very precious sister-in-law did have her faith turned to sight today. What a very happy thing! I've been picturing her in heaven all day.

@faerywings I agree with you that my timing on coming back to the Os is a very good thing.

Happy birthday @vickyday! 70! Pretty amazing if you ask me! I'm so glad that you get to celebrate with Ilene! I'm 68 on Friday. It surely doesn't seem possible. Have a great day!

Good morning ladies. Yesterday took an unexpected turn. My 57 year old, healthy sister-in-law was found not breathing and no heart beat. She had been doing her morning routine of lifting weights. My niece found her. They have ruled her brain dead. Brian and Shaun and I spent the day there...

My daughter has been doing an internship at Land of Lakes since May so I have been spending as much time as possible in Minneapolis. Labor Day weekend we spent driving the shore of Lake Superior. I so hope that she gets a fulltime job there. But mainly Hope she gets a fulltime job somewhere.

Dang @AK_Tracy you were bold and curious! Your own smilies! Oh my! You probably had @wombat146 looking for the blue bottles.

Good morning. Starting my morning in here reminds me of the days when I needed to get up before the kids and getting ready for work just to get my Daily O's done. Now I work from home so no commute and no getting dressed up. I am going to dinner with a friend tonight so I will try to take...

This ad drew me in right away. I have totally fallen in love with Fall Breeze in the gallery and I feel like I need to take advantage of this grab bag offer. I just came back to digital scrapbooking and this will be my first purchase.

Congratulations on being in the Cheery-O blog post! I can sure see why you were selected. Definitely love the way the colors of the page make me feel like fall. And what better place to hike than along the Great Lakes.

This page has such a timeless feel. The way that you scrapped these lyrics is just perfect. love the colors, the use of the cluster and the black ink. Each detail perfectly placed!

What a great photo to use. Love how you used the musical notes coming right out of that horn! The title across the bottom...really special!

What a great page remembering that reunion. This year was my 50th reunion...how fast it goes! Love the fun pieces: "I'm a senior" twice! And, "I can't remember your name either." What a fun page!
