Smile It's been a while...
Hey y'all!!! I haven't been active here or even scrapping much since I separated from DH almost 2 years ago.

Life has been a crazy roller coaster since then. Now that things are somewhat 'normal', I feel like I can venture back into doing things I LOVE for ME!! Yay!! Kids are growing like weeds, they will all be having birthdays in the next couple of months. My divorce will be final on May 1st (). I'm working 8-5 job, which hopefully will be a full time permanent in the next couple of months, I've actually been there FT for a year in February, but technically my position is 'extra help'. Weekends are mostly free and full of adventures and photography.

I have missed you all and being creative tremendously. I haven't been to the shoppe in a year... Oh My, is it full of amazing goodies. I've spent a couple (okay, maybe a few) hours here today filling my wish list and cart, checking out the challenges and gallery... You are all wonderfully talented!!

I'm happy to have found my spark again.

Dear Amanda, I can understand you sooo good.... my hubby left me 3 years ago and ... I wasn't doing much online since this point....

but now I'm back too and I love to scrap again for me... and it's only for me and mostly with old photos because my boys (esp. the 17 y.o. one) don't want to be photographed...

glad to see you back too
