{...still unpacking}

So, we are in our house and I am surrounded by boxes.
I have no motivation to unpack; not even my scrap stuff. I am busy being a stay at home mom and that takes up 99% of my time. I can't even imagine what Caitlyn will be like when she gets 2 because right now she is wearing me out.
I have pulled out a few magazines so that I can browse through for some ideas, but I have no idea when I will actually get a chance to sit down and scrap. I can say proudly that I am keeping up with my project 365. The only drawback will be that when I do get a chance to sit down and work on it I will have almost 6 weeks worth of photos to scrap.
Anyway, I am going to get back to looking for a job - staying at home is driving me crazy.

{happy v day}

This will be a quick post as I am so tired from yesterdays move and the drive from Florida to Atlanta that I can barely keep my eyes open.
Hope everyone had a fabulous Valentine's day. I found a couple of pictures of my two loves to post in honor of the holiday.






As you can see I am still in love with black and white photos.

I will try to catch up once we get settled in the new home. I get one day of rest before we move so I'm going to take full advantage.

{tomorrow is the day}

Okay so I am nowhere near ready for the movers; but they will be here in the morning to start packing. I figure I can try to stay one step ahead of them and I should be okay. Not sure how that will work out with the "Little Princess" right next to me every step of the way, but we will see.
My plan was to clean the refrigerator but I decided to come update my blog instead and also do a little job hunting; there really aren't enough hours in the day. So I have now changed my plan to getting up at 7:00 am or so and cleaning it then (before the trash man comes). Keep your fingers crossed for me.
I figure it will be about a month before I have anything scrappy to share, however I did make a little "challenge book" last night (hope to post tomorrow) with some of my stash. This way I can keep a list of the challenges/prompts/sketches I see online and want to do and I can check them off as I get them done. This way I always have something type of inspiration close by.

{monday once again}

So it's Monday and it's really nice here in Florida. I am busy getting things ready for the move on Friday. I can't say that I'm enjoying it, but I am fortunate enough to have a wonderful daughter here to entertain me everyday. She just never ceases to amaze me.
Anyway, I was able to get some scrappin' done this weekend (only 1 page). I have found that that I have fallen back into the pattern of spending all my time on the internet; either looking at scrapbook stuff or looking for a job. I have got to step away from the laptop again.
Okay I am off to watch "Big Bang Theory" - thank goodness they moved it to 9:30 so that I wouldn't have to miss it due to the Presidential Address.

{february?}

I can't believe how fast time is flying by. I noticed that I only had a handful of posts last month which means I'm obviously not doing as well as I wanted to do this year with my blog upkeep.
Anywho... I am still in ATL and I am still job hunting so no scrapping or anything crafty for me right now although I am happy to report that I am keeping up with my project 365. I do hope that my year gets more interesting becuase right now it looks like we lead a pretty boring life.
Okay so we are scheduled to head back to Florida tomorrow and even though I will be busy getting packed/organized etc. I plan on scrapping at least on page. Wish me luck.
