Now...

WTH is up with my messenger?!
It wouldn't sign me in-
just keeps saying
"Signing in"
grrr!!!!
I uninstalled it
and re-installed it-
so that sucks

On other note:
The School Of Scrap contest im in-
not sure If I want to be in it anymore..
The layout I did last week I thought was really good-
but others that I thought it was better than...
got a better grade than me....so that sucks-
and this week is really hard....gotta use a album cover
(that they chose) for inspo. and have either the word
Grateful or Thankful
along with their defination and a quote with the word....
thats way more of a busy page than I am used to.....
totally out of my box....
Im going to see what I can do here in a bit with it-
I know I am going to be using two sheets from the
BG Lily Kate line.

Got those at the LSS today along with some KI halloween pp
Some Insipirables (not sure off the top of my head who makes this)
thanksgiving paper
and some HS Lemonade stand chipboard letters-

right now im sitting on my foot and its fallen asleep.....
the tingles suck!

WTH is...

The weekend was fun!
went as follows...

Target- spent like my only spending money of the weekend...its horrible when you have too much time on your hands and you are browsing the "endcaps" (aka clearance) at T's.
Had an hour before movie- so we went to Applebees and had a few drinks at the bar:) fun
Went to see Gridiron Gangs- Amazing movie! I almost cried at like 4 different parts...a must see!
Saturday:
Got up- supposed to go to the Walker Art Center...got directions on the road..directions lead us to residential area....went to Anchor Paper Factory instead. Got stuff for my SSS will send that out this week!
5pm was Kailens 10th Birthday Party- had a few drinks had fun- many laughs
Lumpy had a 2 kegger...love these parties - so much fun
There was drama- like always- but didnt happen until after I left..but it was because of me...if only SHE would just get over it! honestly girl (can't call her a woman) it was two years ago and you two were not even togehter--- and it was only a kiss.....all started by him! Im not a SLUT!
got drunk had fun- went home slept great!!
Sunday:
Did nothing- Brett and I looked up random things online...I uploaded pics from the previous day. Brett watched football (the vikes...he was being tourchered - hes a packer fan) Went to town to pick up my pics and some supper....turkey roast, mashed potatoes, beans- so nummy- came home hung out and watched Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Great weekend of basically nothing!


Brett finds out this week if he got the job in Fargo, ND.
I am excited and nervous for him.
He has been on edge since he interviewed.
I hope he gets it.
I would love to move and start a life somewhere else.
Can't wait until he finds out either way so he will not
be so on edge!!

Thats all.....it was way better before- colorful and all..
oh well...
Im going to go and be bored more.......

Miss Scraps-A-Lot

I've been scrappin away!!!
Here are a few of my favs..(they are all uploaded on 2peas)
Lots of b-day pics-












Sunday was game day at mom and Kevin's . Mitchell and I were the last in on Monopoly. Neither of us was ready to give up- I hate losing! We both decided we were sick of playing after 4 hours and both quit. haha



This week will be boring...hopefully will get my 2nd roll of film shot and developed and a contact sheet printed out- I will scan them and post them- so ya'll can see what it is I do....haha
Until then......

MIA (no longer!!)

My ring has been found!! I am so excited!!!
My brother found it out by Jake.
We were at MOA when I found out- screamed
right in the middle of the mall.
Then got embarassed because I was in the
middle of the mall- oh wel!

So today was a blast- I will post pics tomorrow- too lazy
to get up and get the camera and all that fun stuff.

Getting the ring resized tomorrow- can't wait until
it fits and I can wear it all the time!!
Flippin right!!!!

I want to scrap really bad- But I need to sleep
My back is killing me- the pain killers are kicking in and
making me tired- so I shall go to bed!!

Scrap Fest Review.....

So today I went to scrapfest at MOA.
It was not exactly what I expeceted and I am
glad that I did not buy the "badge" We were able to walk around all of the
vendor booths since they were just in the isles between the stores.
They just had their make and takes and pages made with their products-
not sure what I was expecting- but I didn't get it. haha

I did manage to spend $50 at Archivers. Got:

• BG Gypsy
• HS papers
• Cosmo Cricket
• MME
• HS chipboard (2 types)
• Cloud 9 papers to use for my rolodex swap
• k&i color theory (pink) for Crystals B-day album
  
• and a ton of other stuff.

and a free ($10 value) Dotto perm. adhesive roller.
figured i'd use that more than the bag that was my other choice!

Can't wait to use it all!!

Got my pictures printed off from last weekend.
Tonight we are going to a "kegger" even though
I don't drink beer
so that means..

I get to go to the Liquor store and buy alcohol
for the first time by myself- haha

Tomorrow is Game day! We are going to my moms
to play some board games. and she is making supper
I can't wait! I haven't played games in forever!!

The ring is lost......:( :( :( :(

but- im getting a metal detector tonight to check outside where I was when I lost it-
Sohopefully it will turn up
if not- I don't have it anymore-
and that is sad....

grr!!

21 and ready for fun!!!

First off- thank you to the girls on 2peas for the birthday love!! The cards rock and I can't wait to get them in my own hands!!! Thank you so much!

My birthday WEEKEND was great! Camping was fun (other than the rain all day sunday) but got some good 4-wheelin' time in and drank quite a bit- Had a great time! Here are some pics:
