TGIF...even it is snowing!

It's a beautiful snowy winter day...and I'm totally wasting it at work! I'd love to be home with the man and the dog and some paper to play with. Throw in something warm to drink and I'd be in heaven. I loved my 4 day weekend last weekend (lots of fun with John, scrapping with Dawn and Barbara, a little shopping, doing my taxes and lots of sleep!) and wish I could have more of those. It's enough time to really relax and have enough time to get things done without being rushed. Someday...

I wanted to share the new addition to my newest addiction:

John got me the big backpack for Valentine's Day. Love it and can't wait to use it. These colors are so very me and so fun. Makes me feel like it's spring just looking at it.

And to continue with the boring update...I'm getting my first facial next week. My skin is out of control and can't make up it's mind if its dry, oily or both and there are some of those lovely "age spots" appearing now. I have to try something to make things pretty again! LOL! So it's off to the Elizabeth Grady salon to see if they can help. Wish me luck!

Check this out...

I just won a prize from MM on their blog! I won a very cool Desktop Organizer that I've been dying for! This company is amazing - they are running contests for prizes for the people who didn't get to go to CHA and go to their booth. They've been giving away prizes for the past couple days all day long! So much fun!

Now maybe I'll actually be able to get some work done! LOL!

p.s. Did I mention the 5" of snow and 1/2" of ice we got here in Massachusetts today? Fun, fun, fun commute! Thank goodness I have the best man ever and he got up and cleaned my car off for me. Love him!!!

Yes...two days in a row!

Don't fall over (like anyone is actually reading this boring and unused blog!), but I'm here 2 days in a row. Today I wanted to share some very cool inspiration. I just joined Studio Calico and have been spending a bit of time in their gallery. There are some amazing artists on the Design Team and the members create some pretty cool stuff too! Check out this blog. I am totally in awe of her style. Love, love, love her pages! Enjoy!!!

Step One: Admission

Ok...I admit it...I am a horrible blogger! Despite all good intentions, depsite hours spent on the internet each week, despite access to the internet at home and at work and despite a sincere desire to document my life...I am a horrible blogger. There is just no excuse for it. So there. I've admitted it now. I'm on to Step Two in my special program. I just have to figure out exactly what that should be! There's lots of catching up for me to do here...photos to upload, stories to tell, resolutions to share. I'm going to try and do some of that this week. And I'm off to a good start just by typing this entry! I've got to get back to work, but I'll leave you with some of my favorite pictures from the end of last year.

New decorations and ornaments. Found the cool glitter words at Kohl's!

I think I'm back.  I just spent some time updating the look and my info so at least one new post is called for.  I'm still alive, st...
