42

Today is my birthday.  I'm 42 years old.  I certainly feel old today.  The packers have been here since 10AM working on getting all my worldly possessions out of the house and into the back of a truck.

It doesn't feel like a birthday either because my kids aren't here with him.  ((OMG is this what it will be like when they leave me???))  But before the little one left, we did have lunch with some friends.




Darren and I both got apple watches today.  He got me this one pictured above and he got the black aluminum one.  His was a belated father's day present.

This layout is so simple...

...but man it took me forever to put it together for some reason.  I cut out the circle borders on my silhouette and I also did the title letters on my silhouette.  The font is Rockwell and I printed it with my sketch pens and then cut it out.  After putting them on the paper they just didn't have enough weight so I took my gold foil marker and colored them in.


I don't know why after years of scrapbooking, I'm still finding it hard to put together a layout.  I used to be able to rock out a couple a day and now layouts sit on my desk for a week while I try to find exactly what I want to use.  I don't know what happened.  I know I took a break while in Korea because I just didn't have the space to work and it really took a toll on my mojo but now that I have the space I feel like I can't find my groove.

I think one of the things I miss is the online scrapping message boards and groups.  The small ones these days seem to be filled with people who have known each other for years and aren't looking for any new "friends" and the big ones are well just big.  Is there anyone out there still who scrapbooks just to scrapbook and have fun and put their memories on paper and isn't trying to be all artsy about it?

10th Birthday Party


More photos that I found on the camera.  Right before school started again after Christmas break, we had a party for Evan to celebrate his 10th birthday.  He invited his friends to the bowling alley for bowling and pizza.

I'm trying to finish up some of last week's memory planning while I wait to leave to pick Evan up from his Robotics Executive mee...
