no matter how you look at it, crack sucks.

... drugs, butt, wall.... I'm not totally sure how we will fix this yet. For now it's all cleaned up and I just don't have laundry. I can live with that for a bit.

There's a lot of fun things you can do on a Friday night


This is NOT one of them. I went downstairs about 7:00 and the floor was dry. Around 9:30, I went down again for some random reason and the floor under the washer and dryer was soaked! I called Ryan down and we just started tearing things apart. I do not want mould and so I'm not even going to try and save anything. Out it goes.
Not a lot of water got mopped of the floor, but it sure made a hell of a mess.


We think the water is coming out of the wall somewhere around here. Don't know for sure just yet.


Bye bye laundry area. What a royal pain.

...so Crystal says take a picture....

...and I am currently doing everything Crystal says. Haha. After enjoying the Canada Day festivities at the park we walked home and went past the gym. She bullied me into getting a 2 month membership. I started going on Monday. She has very nicely set me up with a routine and taught me how to do it so I didn't hurt myself. Other than a few jokes about my limp noodle right arm she was very helpful.

I've been to the gym every day since Monday, other than Thursday when I used my wii at home. I've enjoyed it quite a bit and can't say yet that I'm ready to give up. I had a fear I would hate it, and that I'd only go because I spent the money, but so far it's pretty good. I hope that after my 2 months are up I continue it. So here's a picture of overweight me. I hope to soon post a photo of a slightly slimmer me.

Thankful for good friends

It's so nice to know that you have good friends to talk to, to sort out your problems with, to forget your problems with, or just hang out and smile and laugh. On Friday night I got together with many of my scrapbooking friends for a few hours and we had a great time together getting glued up, sharing stories of our lives. This is not a layout I did that night, but it does show how thankful I am for my dear friend June.

3 things I like:
1) I like that the colours represent us here - these are very June and Ang colours.... it could only be made more perfect by adding some teal and pink.
2) Changing a photo from colour to sepia - I don't do that very often, but this photo we both looked drunk (which we were not) our cheeks were so red. Cooking a turkey can make a person flushed.
3) Meaningful journaling - if you don't have journaling, it's not done!

Be Happy

Jen took this photo of me before (?) we went to the 50s diner in her car. It was kind of random, but I liked it, so thought I would do a quick one-pager. This took about 40 minutes from start to finish, inspiration from October 2010 Scrapbook Trends.

3 things I like:
1) Sassafras border stickers - They are so easy, go with nearly everything and add a perfect finish.
2) Felt - it softens everything
3) October Afternoon word stickers - I have 4 sheets of these. Also a very versatile product. The "My Bliss" and "photo taken by:" stickers are from these sheets.
