I had a time limit...

Today was a very busy day. I had a time limit. I had to put Kenzie on the bus. Go drop the dog off, we had to get rid of her due to Kenzie's growing fear of her. Stop and grab a bite to eat, go to the bank, go to the Dollar Store, make it back to Charlestown before the bus got here to drop Kenzie off from school. Whoa, I just made it! It was crazy. In addition to all of that, Santa sent one of Kenzie's presents early. It came today and I had to tell her that it was a gift for santa so that she wouldn't want to open it. Maddie has been so funny lately. She loves playing with her Sister. They ran and ran and ran around the playroom today. I got a load of clothes and things ready to send with Ryan to Once Upon A Child. The neighbor had given them to me thinking that Dustin would be bringing Joshua back to live with us, when we all figured out that it wouldn't happen, the neighbor said to give them to good will or whatever I wanted to do with them, so I decided to sell them to the Once Upon A Child. Kenzie had a sub today. She said his name was Mr. Scott. She went on to tell me that Mr. Scott read a story at circle time. Ryan is ok. A little down due to his recent loss at Fantasy Football, but I see it like this, You win some, You loose some. Amanda is hanging in there from what I hear. I haven't heard from her for a few days, so I am thinking that everything is ok. I am just doing my own thing now. I have started posting at night so that I can put what happens during that day rather than the day before. I guess that is about it... Will edit if I think of anything else.
Love,
Dawn

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
