have been doing lots of scrapping but it is all DT work for RJR so i can't share it just yet.
let me just say that my brain has been stretched to it's limits with the products in the pack this month - i just want my work to be original and inspiring.
i'm thankful i have taken the time to make an "ideas" book filled with sketches and ideas of how to scrap different products and ideas for different LOs. and it's nice to have the EMM gallery too where there is never a shortage of talented ladies sharing their inspirational LOs.
it was a L-O-N-G day at work today. for the second week in a row i had no paperwork sent through for the tech i look after (he installs and repairs EFTPOS machines in local businesses) so i had to find things to do. it didn't help that mark was in the office all day so tracey, my co-worker, and i didn't get to play up and laugh and chat like we usually do.
and to top off my day i had a phonecall from a "friend" (and i use that term loosely when it comes to my relationship with her). in the past few years she has become more and more relient on alcohol and has developed a nasty streak where she seems to thinks she can offer advice and comment on what she thinks is wrong with me and my family and my life but won't for one minute take any critisism of her or her family. and not for one minute do i think i am in a position to offer anyone critisism on how they live their life or how they choose to raise their family or live their lives.
i was raised and abused by an alcoholic who spat poison at me and belittled me every chance she got and as a child i was not in a position to do anything about it. but as an adult i am not prepared to accept it now from someone who professes to be my friend and care about me.
was it not for the friendship mark and i have with this person's partner we would have been long gone by now.
so i will now reduce my contact with this person.
she drains my soul and tires me out with her silly little mind games.
sorry to vent but hey.....this is my blog and vent i shall !!!!!
hopefully i will be back with some happier news and some scrapping to share in the next few days
remember to look for the things in your life that make you smile
~~ and let those you love, know that you do ~~

HAPPY THOUGHT FOR TODAY
i have a loving husband, three beautiful children and a life that is far from perfect.
but is the life mark and i have chosen to make for ourselves and our family.

Vent away - beautiful Shazz!
I too decided long enough that the people that truly care for me are the only ones I will keep in my life...family included. I feel much better not being dragged into other peoples mess or drama. And feel much better about myself and my life. Although a bit lonely sometimes. But I'd rather have a few close wonderful friends than alot of not so wonderful friends!!
I hope you have a better day tomorrow!!
Are you over the flu now??
Thinking of you -
Love Kel xxx
Hugs Shazz! xo Vent away and look after You, that person doesn't deserve to have you as a friend, you are so much better than that!!!
