Talk about Far out! NASA Astronauts sending tweets from outer space while on board the space shuttle Atlantis! Although Mike Massimino’s (Astro_Mike) has been “tweeting” about the shuttle mission since April, on Tuesday he became the first person to “tweet” from space. His tweets are especially fun to read because you can just FEEL his […]
Happy Mother’s Day To Me! (and other single moms)
That’s a strange sounding title, I know! But let me explain; as a single mom (not a divorced mom or one with father(s) in the picture, a real single mom), my boys have not yet learned to appreciate me (lol) so I am appreciating myself this year! Just how am I recognizing my selfless, loving, […]
Let’s Talk Twitter!
Do you Twitter? I do! I consider myself to be a “late-blooming Twitterer” because I only discovered it in late March. It seems that Twitter is all the rage everywhere you turn lately. If you haven’t heard of Twitter yet, WAKE UP! Just kidding… 🙂 Let’s talk Twitter! Here’s what you can find in this […]
New Blogger Design for You and Me!
Finally! I am “somewhat” finished with my new blog template/layout. I ended up not creating my own from scratch, it was ridiculously difficult so I modified a version of the generic template from ourblogtemplates.com.

Crop-A-Dile II Big Bite vs. Making Memories Instant Setter Hello, well I am still in bed but I managed to bribe my son into bringing me a box of my scrapbooking supplies in here so that I can do SOMETHING! I was so disappointed with one of my new tools and so thrilled with another, […]
How to make your own Clip It Up
I found instructions online a long time ago for making a version of the “clip it up” like the one by “Simply Renee”. I’m making my second one now and I love it! It was very inexpensive to make compared to the “real” one and several people have asked me to post pictures and instructions. […]
Catchin’ Up – Following Up
I’ve gotten a lot done but haven’t had time to post or take pictures yet. Because I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, sometimes I am not up to doing much and the last week or so has been rough. However, before this I was able to get two of my Ikea Expedit 2×4 shelves hung on […]
Ordered my wishlist from scrapbook.com!
Today Tyler and I completed one of his online assessments and his therapist came to the house for his weekly session. Homeschooling is such a constant battle, it would be so much easier to send him to public school but he is doing so much better here at home that I would never send him […]
