Bad Attitude by Litabells Designs

Often I see these fabulous photoless pages with lots of journaling in the galleries. Some of those pages are really master pieces. I love photoless pages and I want to create pages like that, but I struggle with my journaling. For me the hardest part in a page is the journaling. Often I skip it. I need some practice because I want journaling in my pages. It's an important part of the page.

Bad attitude and proud

Fall Delight by LDrag Designs

Thursday morning I had to scrape ice from my car. I was late for work and I was not prepared for that yet. It is only October. I can live with the rain and the wind and the cold although I don't like it, but spare me for the ice.I'm just like the bear, at winter time I just want to hibernate. I don't want to step outside the door before springtime sometime.
Autumn is a fabulous time. When the rain is pouring down, the wind is blowing and it is freezing cold, I can spend time inside doing my stuff without feeling guilty because I am not outside doing all the things that need to be done. Hurray to the autumn!

Autumn Fun – At the pumpkin patch by Jady Day Studio

Friday, the best day of the whole week is here again! I love Fridays!
Two full days off from work. Two full days where I can do what ever I like to do. Well that is not entirely true, but I like to think that it is true.
Friday is also a great day in Digiland when many of the stores release their new stuff. I love to browse through the store to see the new goodies. I don't buy as much as I did before. I have become pretty selective. But usually I always end up buying something. I have my favourite stores and favourite designers. If I wasn't on Jady Day Studio's CT I would certainly buy her new kit "Autumn Fun – At the pumpkin patch". That kit is really awesome. Have a look for yourself.

Faboolous Halloween by LDrag Designs

The shops are filled with fabulous Halloween kits and I have to admit that although we don't celebrate Halloween around here, I have actually bought a Halloween kit. The temptations are huge and I am lurking over some kits which I have been able to resist so far. The kits are perfect to scrap other pages than Halloween pages as well. Look what I created with LDrag Designs new kit "Faboolous Halloween".

Autumn Fun – Ghoul Night by Jady Day Studio

Another week away from home, I have been away the whole week. I came back Friday evening and didn't feel very well. My throat was sore, a headache was bothering me and I felt really tired. It has been a really hectic week at work and my days have been long. Hope I don't catch a cold or something. I don't have time for that at this point. Do we ever have time for such things? Anyway, I have been eating colostrum pills and Strepsils the whole weekend. I think it might be working, my throat feels better. Maybe I get lucky this time.
This weekend I haven't spent as much time by the computer as I use to, but I have managed to scrap a page. You know, scrapping is therapy for me. That is what most people don't get, people who don't scrap. I need my scrapping time.

Ready for some Fun

A nice place to be by Fee Jardine Design

I wish the weekends would last longer. So much to do and so little time. The photo session is being postponed to next weekend. Hopefully we get something done then. I would like to get some photos of the whole family. The four of us together. This week I will be away from home the whole week, no time for scrapping before I get back home on Friday. No point in bringing the laptop with me, as I will be working long days in the office. No energy left for scrapping afterwards. I will probably check the forums and galleries, as I can't stay away from the digi community a whole week. This happy page will stay on top of my blog for the next week.

Autumn Bliss Templates by True Blue Studio

I can't believe September is gone already. Where did it go?
If it continues in this speed, it will be Christmas in no time. I am not ready to start thinking about Christmas yet. Not at all, so let's not go there. Let us stick to the Autumn. Did I mention deer the other day? Well tomorrow I am going to eat some deer. My parents have invited us to dinner, and they will be serving steak of deer. Why am I talking about deer again? I guess I've got them on my brain. Before you know it they end up on one of my pages...

When I got my eyes on Yari's new yummi kit, I knew I had to look through some older photos. I knew that somewhere I had the perfect photo, I just had to find it. I found my treasure.

My happy place by Litabells Designs & Captivated Visions

Finally Friday, my favourite day of the week. It sure has been a busy week both at work and at home. I am really looking forward to get some time off. No plans for the weekend. Maybe do some outside photgraphing if the weather allows it. The Autumn colours are really beautiful around here at the moment. On my way to work this morning, 4 deers crossed the road 10 meters away from my car. It is such a beautiful sight (if you don't get a heart attach or something). On Monday a huge deer almost jumped on my car not far from where I saw the other ones today. I almost got a heart attack! It's deer everywhere around here. They use to just come from nowhere and jump into the road right in front of you, it's quite scary. So far I have been lucky, and not hit any of them. I am crossing my fingers that it continues that way. Would hate it if that happened.

Althought I am not done installing, recovering and organizing everything after the harddrive crash, I have been scrapping instead of doing the boring stufff mentioned above.

Litabells Designs & Captivated Visions have re-released their fabulous collab "My happy place". For some unknown reason I didn't have it in my stash, so I was glad to get this opportunity to snag it. This is such a fun kit!

Oh man! What a week!
I have been working away from home the whole week. It turned out to be one of those troublesome weeks at work and of top of that a longlasting headache has been bothering me. I was hoping to catch the Thursday flight back home. But I forgot to book in time, the plane was full so I didn't get back home before Friday afternoon.
When I started my laptop in the evening, I managed to read a couple of e-mails before the damn thing froze and denied to restart. I tried like 10 times. Nothing. My husband did his stuff. He used to fix computers in his spare time. No matter what he tried, it wouldn't respond. The harddrive is totally dead. Again!!! The same thing happened about a year ago. With the same laptop. I was without my laptop for 2 MONTHS and when I finally got it back it didn't even work. We bought a new harddrive and my husband replaced the old one and it worked fine until now. The laptop is only 2 years old, but I have had it. It is now GARBAGE!! I dumped it!
I have been afraid this might would happen again, so I have been looking for a replacement, but couldn't decide which one to buy. This forced me to take a decision and I bought a new laptop just in time before the shop closed on Friday. This weekend I have been busy installing stuff and restoring my backups. My last backup was done about a month ago, so I didn't loose that much. But a month is a month and I hate to loose stuff.

You know, I had to get me a new laptop right away because I couldn't stand being without my laptop and access to the scrap community a whole weekend. That is probably NOT a healthy sign.

Installing and restoring is boring so I had to take a break and scrap something. While I looked through my old albums to find some museum photo's I knew where hiding in there somewhere, I came over this one. It brought back some good memories and I decided to scrap a page about it.
