*Trying to ready the kitchen for the remodel, fighting with the wallpaper to come off, yuck!!!
*Class preparations and the brainstorming/making of new classes!
*Assignments
*Trying to find the perfect used car for DH, to use for his rotations with long commutes, that is reliable and not a checkbook breaker
*Everyday life
It is neverending, huh?
I took a little break from it all today and had lunch with my friend, Tracy. She has been busy lately too and we haven't had the girl time that we used to, I have missed her. Her hours are back to normal now and we took advantage of that today and went to a great restaurant called Ciabbata. If you live in the Reading area, you must go, everything is good, huge portions and very reasonably priced!! So, we got to do some much needed catching up and it was nice hanging out again, just the two of us!
I still don't have much mojo, but I did manage to get this layout done a few days ago. I've had it planned in my head for a few months and finally did it! I just love this picture, it's the second time I've scrapped it with the same topic too!
The background is done by using KI lace cardstock as a mask and spritzing with multiple colors of Radiant Rain sprays and Glimmer Mists. I just cannot get enough of that stuff!! I prefer the Radiant Rains but the Glimmer Mists are nice too, just more watery. I'm kicking off a monthly "technique toolbox" at memory lane pa and will be teaching Radiant Rain techniques this Saturday!! I hope to pass my addiction on to all of those taking the class!!
Have a great weekend!! I think I'll go do some blog hopping now!! I've missed that too!!
