That’s how I feel! I’ve been so busy with other stuff that I feel like I am totally out of the loop! Don’t you hate it when “real life” gets in the way of playtime? LOL! Yesterday, real life got in the way – but this time it wasn’t my fault. Someone hit a power pole three streets over from us, and when it fell, it pulled down 6 other poles with it! It was like a domino effect! So, needless to say the power went out! My husband got the generator out after a couple of hours so we could run the pump for the aquarium and the fridge. We definitely don’t want to lose any more fish! For some reason the amplifier for the cable would not work off the generator, so we were without cable or internet until about 8:00 last night.

Remember I mentioned a few days ago about some of my layouts being featured on the Memory Makers site? Well my first layout is being featured today. Here’s the link: http://www.memorymakersmagazine.com/page_ideas.aspx. I have two more coming. One is next weekend and the other is not until June. I can’t get a layout published in a magazine to save my life, so this is almost as good – LOL!
