Kits for Sale

Hello everyone! It has been a long week so far at work. I still have not gotten back in the swing of being back at work. I have prayed, prayed,prayed, and thought, thought, and thought about several options that I might want to try. The options are starting a monthly scrap booking kit club, opening a scrap booking store, or even starting my own line of something dealing with scrapbooking materials. I really need your help out there in blog world. (wink) I am wanting to get some input from everyone who loves to scrapbook on what is needed right now. I am really wanting to start the monthly kit club, but really do not know where to begin. If theirs anyone who is willing to give advice please fill free. Right now I need all the help I can get. Also I am wanting to know if everyone will be willing to support the club. I know that starting a business is always taking chances, but I feel that GOD will help me along the way. I have puzzled myself and my DH about coming up with a name. If your have any suggestion feel free to include those. Well I have to go for now. Happy Scrapping!

Back At Work

All this week I have been at workshops to begin the school year. I am mentally tired today. The workshops were refreshers that they give use every year for the same things. It is to the point were everyone knows what they are going to tell us next.I was so glad to come home and relax. Tomorrow is the first day for the students to come to school. I really do not think I am ready mentally or physically ready to see their sweet faces. I guess I better get myself together. I have a lot to do to get myself together. I will let you know how tomorrow went. Until then happy scrapping!

Tax Free Weekend

Today, in Alabama started Tax Free Weekend. This is for back to schools sales. Well let just say that my loving mother and I went to the Riverchase Galleria Mall in Hoover, AL so that my mother could purchase her a back to school handbag. This is a lady the knows what she wants. Here is a photo of what she purchase today.
So of course I had to do a little browsing around and fine this

or this one

I love them both, but can't decide. I guess I will take them both. (just kidding) I don't think the DH will purchase both.
Well, I guess you guys want to know if we got the handbags without paying taxes.....well..... know we did not. The state of Alabama had certain things that did not apply and designer handbags was one. Oh and the MAC Cosmetics that I purchase did not apply. but we had fun spending money today anyway.

It's almost time

for school to begin. I am ready to go back to work and see all the smiling faces. I picked up my class roll today and I have 19 students in my class. I guess I will have a busy school year. Pray for me that I will be able to have a very peaceful and productive school year. I will truly miss sleeping in and reading everyone blogs like I have done over the summer. It was fun! I guess reading blogs will have to wait until the weekend or late at night after all of my mother and wife duties are completed. I will also be back in school this term completing my master's degree. I can not wait until December and I will be finish!!!!! (smile) I am a little up set because I know that scrapbooking will be put on hole for a while, well that is until December. January 2008 will be a lot of catching up for me. Will until I post again Happy Scrapping!

House on the Market!

Today was a bit strange. My DH and I have been talking about down sizing to a smaller house,but that is all we did was talk about it. Last night we went to look at some Garden Homes a couple blocks over. This morning my DH called owner realtor who handles everything for us and she asked him was we ready to move soon! (LoL) He went on to tell her that we wanted to just see some of the Garden homes today and she said that was great because she had a couple that was interested in our house. Now our house is not on the market, there is no realtor sign in the front yard. The only people who new house serious we were about selling was GOD! ( Think to yourself a min.) After the DH got off the telephone with her I had to ask GOD was this him telling us something because from time to time GOD try and tell us things, but we do not listen. I hope and pray that GOD will help us with this journey and make all the right decision. So we meet the realtor today at 4:00 to see the Garden Homes and for her to see ours. Go in Pray with me that everything works out for the good! Here is a photo of our house now.( It was built in 2006 and we moved in May 2007) Yeah! May 2007



Here is a pic of our house!
