Default Just wanted to share

So, given some soon to come life changing events, I have put in my two weeks notice at work. While I will be devoting most of my time to my kids, house and school work -- I am so excited that I will be able to carve out "ME" time and that "ME" time is going to consist of scrapping!!!

I'm thrilled! So excited to get back to what I love most -- My kids and pictures of my kids!! (Really photography in general, but being a mom, most of my shots have my boys in them!)

So, hopefully, in about 2 weeks, I will start uploading some things to the gallery -- a little excited and nervous about that!!

Sounds like a great new adventure is beginning for you. Looking forward to the layouts that you produce during your "ME" time.

Thanks!

I was at work and not everyone knows yet - but I was so excited that it was made official that I had to share!

All changes are good - positive changes

I am so looking forward to it that I want to start scrapping now, but I have too many pressing things that hold a priority that I have to wait . . . ergh . . .

Speaking of which, I better get off the message board and get to work ;(
