This has been a busy week with CT`s this week. Michelle, the lucky lady is over at the block party with Christina Renee, this is week 3, so that part-eh is almost over with. Michelle has put out some fab products there, you really should check them out. I do know they will be available in her store but I am not sure when. Anyways, I have been busy with LO`s this week and I hate to say I still have more I need to do. *l* Maybe I should do that instead of writting here, eh! I had alot of fun this week working with my ct`s products.
I was surprised at how well received this LO was at DST.I love how this LO turned out & when you get alot of views, it makes you feel like you did your job for your designer. That is why they have you after all, to sell their designs!!

On a personal & more serious note. My oldest son Michael was in a car accident this weekend. He has totaled his car. He was not hurt physically but emotionally he is bruised. I think when you are 20, you still feel invincible, like nothing bad will ever happen. Well, reality just jumped up & bite him in the you know what!! I have been telling him for a while that he is not untouchable, he wonders why I worry about him, because he is 20 after all. I tell him all the more reason to worry because you are no longer under my roof, I don't know where you are every minute of the day. Well, last night I got that phone call that no parent wants to get. I am so thankful because it could have been my worst nightmare coming true.

Spoiled?

My friend Blackdog is an incredible scrapper. She truely is an artist with her pages & it always amazes me the things she produces. I did a challenge she had on her blog recently & got the most amazing papers for my effort. This is a LO I did with her papers. When they go for sale, I will let you know where you can pick them up.




Being a reject of the CT of Jacque Larsen isn't bad. I get to be a guest CT for her for the next 2 months. I love October, my birthday, thanksgiving, halloween are all this month. November is another awesome month, that leads right into my FAVOURITE month of all time, December. The Christmas music, the snow, the shopping, the eating, I love everything there is about December, but I am getting ahead of myself. *l*
So, being a guest CT means I get to play with all the goodies Jacque will produce in the next 2 months. So far, it has been awesome, and we are only a week into October!!! Jacque is really nice, & is one of my fav designers. Her designs add such whimsy & that something extra special to your LO's. If you have never seen her designs before ( ha-um Michelle) you need to go see what she has to offer, especially if this time of year is your favourite!




My oldest son has come for a short visit. He drove from Ontario to come see me in New Brunswick.Not a short drive, its 18 hours of just driving time, no gas or food breaks so it really is a long trip. I am enjoying having him here, even if it is only a few days since I dont know when I will get to see him again. Now that he is working full time, it may be next summer before we are able to get together again. It's funny because when your kids are young you want them to grow up, become indepentant & live life. Well, now that I no longer have him under my roof or only a few hours away, I can tell you how I wish that he was still a little boy who needed his "mommy"
