Okay okay

Thank you Ruth for reminding me!

Sheldon has been fighting with our network to get his computer up and so I have been without internet access off and on for DAYS!!! Drive me crazy. Plus been a little under the weather.

BUT I'M BACK!!!!

Had to put off emptying out my sb room cause Josh and Crystal are coming up for Christmas next weekend. They will be going to Texas to see her dad after that, so it's now or New Year's! Now, what to get a future DIL......

But I did go through and sort out three older SG kits from the BBB's into my stash, took the last three kits out of BBB's and put in CH envies to make more room. And found a new use for the priority/flat rate boxes: cut top out and half of one side to hold the Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter kits from my SG buddies! I can leave the kits in their baggies but the box holds each group up neatly next to the CH's holding my regular paper! Looks so much neater and they don't flop over when I pull a group out anymore, that was really getting on my nerves. Was actually considering going back to the tray system... till I came up with that idea. The baggies keep the kits from fitting into regular CH holders, but this works great. Might have to take a pic and post here.

Also finally got the Swapmart goodies put away in their proper spots. Great bunch of goodies, very little to go back in a future swap box. And quite a few baby items for Missy Caroline's album (yes they finally named her).

And here she is!


















Pulled out what I wanted to keep from the Red Robin box and found some rubons that Kylie ought to like. If you read this K, go through the paper real carefully, stuck the rubons in between sheets of paper to keep them from getting scratched. I kept three of the daubers and two of the inks (Distress inks !!!). Pulled all my fibers out and put in that box so glad to get rid of those hope someone likes them. Filled it up with a bunch of other goodies, thought I was making it smaller but now it's worse than when I opened it!!!! Oh dear. Getting it in the mail....


What else? Oh yeah, have the Scrapbook Takeout goodies, loving those. All black & white, think I'll do another b&w layout, really liked how the last one turned out. I'll post a pic here later, SG buds know the one: "I'm so freaking awesome" LOL!

Humm, I still think that your box going around should go around in our group & visa versa...I feel like I'm missing out on some goodies!!!

So when was/is the company shindig? I'm so glad the Round Robin box made it to you! Did you see all the orange stuff in there?? I think that was just for you and I! LOL!!!

Well arent we the busy beaver!! I have been straightening and sorting out my stuff as well and managed to get 3 boxes of stuff sorted and put in their places.

Got to get ideas for my two ATC swaps coming up in January. I have a good idea what I am going to do, I bet I get them done at my crop the 21st. It will be the last one forever, the place is closing.

When did you send the box? Still not at my house, but I can't wait!!! I got my SBTO goodies last week too - they are so yummy - I thought I'd hoard them, but I got into them straight away!
