TGIF (& Ali Challenge #3)
Day before yesterday.... Jack told me that a girl in school said she hated him. Now... this is a boy who's so shy and timid... wouldn't hurt a fly. But what killed me most was how nonchalant he was about it. We would tell him that maybe she was having a bad day and didn't mean it, or if she did it was wrong and he should ask his teacher how to handle a situation like that. He just shrugged it off... "No. She just hates me." So sad. It's not OKAY for people to say that. I debated about what to do about it. This is Kindergarten. I decided to wait to see what would happen the next day. And what happened? "She was my friend today!" LOL Which is great! Cause he loves school (most of the time). Especially playing in the house.... 'cause there's cowboy boots there you know!
Looking forward to a nice weekend. Not at the shoppe, just at home. I have to take a MAJOR look at my (scrapbooking) to-do list...
- plan Super Scrap Day (make and takes, etc.)
- get ready for Bible Camp event (goodie bags, display, etc.)
- get ready for Manitou class (in November)
- complete 2 circle journals (by the end of October)
- finish holiday cards for online site (by the end of October)
- finish tags for Christmas Tag Swap (by Nov. 15)
- teach one more class this month
- start Shimelle's class ("You Think you Know Me")
- get December class ready
- order this week (remember to order more for December kit)
- get that sign done for the shoppe
- finish photo swap layout (by SSD)
- start Christmas gifts (and cards)
... and I'm sure there's more... but I'll start with this. I'm going to try to copy the list and check them off as I go....
And Ali's challenge from her AEzine.
This week your challenge is to create a layout that tells the story of your relationship with photos and/or your camera.
Consider the following questions:
What is your personal photo-taking process? What are your strengths in regards to taking photos?What do you want to change about your process? Which photos that you have taken are your favorites? Why? What makes those photos your favorite?
If you don't have time to create a layout this week I would encourage you to simply think about how you take photos. Write down a photo goal for yourself this week and do something about it over the next seven days.
Of course I read it once and didn't refer to it 5 days later when I actually did my layout, so I didn't answer ANY of those questions. But... that's just the kind of rogue scrappin' rebel I am! LOL!

Gavin had the same problem in school earlier this year. They were friends the next day. It is amazing the dynamics of kids :)
I love your layout ! The layered transparencies look very cool.
SO excited about the Shimelle class! Love the blog...love the scraps:)
I love that you're a scrapbooking rebel with a rebel! Ha. Ha.
Great layout, Marcy. Your list makes me tired just reading it, though.
By the way, how come I'm not on your blog list?
