My Crazy Awful Beautiful Life

August 13, 2008

Long Time, No Bloggin'!

Wow!! I just realized how long it has actually been since I've posted on here!!

Well let's see....

We are working on moving back to Springtown(ICK!), since we have a house there and the owner of the company my parents are currently working for is going to sell it. We've known this for a while now, but I still wasn't prepared! :P We've been busy packing up stuff, getting rid of junk we don't need that has just been sitting around collecting dust, and getting everything ready to go. We still have quite a few things to do, but we're getting there. Last weekend we went and cleaned out the house and it wasn't as bad as we expected. This weekend we are planning going back up there to work on a few more things!! Yippeee! Oh yea, Tax Free Weekend this weekend, gonna go clothes shopping with my mom on Sunday, maybe. Only good thing about the original plan going bad is that we don't have to wear uniforms at this new school. Plus, this new school is a better one than the one we went to last year, may actually be a challenge instead of me getting my work done in the first 20 minutes of class and having nothing else to do!! I will miss some of the teachers that I had and a few of my friends, and a few other places here in Austin, like our fave scrapbooking store, but other than that BUH-BYE Austin!!

I get so sidetracked, I had some other things to say, but I just can't think of them!!!

Gonna hold off on the challenges as you can see I didn't post one last week, or the week before, will probably wait until everything has settled down and we are back in school and done moving!

I was able to get a few cards accomplished today after looking at a magazine and seeing them!! Have you ever done Double Pocket-Folding Cards? OMGosh they are so easy and fun to make once you figure them out!!

Ok here they are:

Ok, You've seen this one before, but I added a lil something to it as it wasn't what I really wanted, I just need to get it sent out!
