Aggie Shoots. Aggie Scraps.

I have got extra time to spare today so before I do my job to research about private placement memorandum and how to go on about placing an investment, here are the costumes my children wore at Halloween. My son was an Indian Boy (not his choice but a choice made by his Dad. We don’t allow him to be scary – but I am guessing by next year we need to allow him to make decisions. He will be turning 9 this year!). My daughter was Cinderella and no amount of candy can make her go Belle (Beauty) for this one.

I have been scrapping again. Not as much and not as fast as I want to but at least I’ve covered the Halloween photos . And a few Christmas layouts from LAST year. Times leading up to the holidays can be incredibly busy and I tend to lost focus and miss deadlines a lot. It has got me thinking to reassess my commitments and make sure I don’t over commit myself – it really would not be fair for everyone. I have been slowly but surely trying to make our house a home too. It has been a LOOOOOOONG work in progress, but I am a little proud and beam a lot inside when I think about all the things I have managed to accomplish with living alone as a family. There are still a lot of things to be done which involves a lot of money but as I’ve said, slowly but surely! (like getting HAVC filters for example).

Here are some Halloween layouts:

You won’t want to miss checking out Sara’s shoppe for some amazing discounts. Sadly, she’s decided to retire from designing, and we are going to miss her tons! While we’re sad to see her go, we know that she is going to love spending extra time with her family at home and we wish her nothing but tons of love and all the best as she says goodbye to our team. Lucky for you, she’s clearing out her shoppe before she goes with an incredible 54% discount and a FREE kit for everyone who spends $10 in her shoppe, so be sure to fill up on everything before the 15th when everything in her store will retire for good.

In keeping up with my resolution to scrap about the little man more (he only has 25 pages this year as opposed to his sister’s 85!!), I am on my third page about him for the week! Yay me! He told me he wants a PSP for his birthday and I scouted around for prices and almost died in shock – it’s the same price as ipods! But I am determined to get him one. I hope money will be easy to us in the coming months.

Finally boy layouts! I have a resolution to scrap or finish an album about the boy before scrapping anymore girl layouts. I am halfway through the school album for the boy I hope I can get it done in time for my expiration on the free Artscow books issued to me.

It was hard for me to work on my pages this month (too many problems plus the need for pressure washers to help flush and clear all the mud left from the flooding last weekend. Thankfully Becca’s gallery was truly inspiring – I cannot start a page from scratch these days.

Right after we invest on health insurance and fix the house and have something in safety for next year, I am going to be starting on reviewing for the NCLEX.I wish I can take up additional courses at the Allied health institute but funds are low right now and it isnt really a priority. I have two courses tucked in my belt with no work experience to boast of.
