SOoooooooooooo?
It was a crazy time without my precious Lily Pad!
I did a bit of scrapping inbetween

my 5 year old finding matches and trying to burn down our bathroom...
he failed...scary
same day
he broke his collarbone
wrestling with two older brothers on cement!

Everyone finally back at school today...and I am not leaving my chair! lol
:giggle
 
OMG! TLP, please don't go away ever again, some crazy happenings at Anne's house! I hope he's fine Anne!
But seriously, I didn't do anything. No mojo lately! :( I just stare at the computer screen, hopefully it will come back soon...
 
Sounds like you were busy, Anne!

I did a lot of scrapping. Even cleaned up my house a bit while the forums were down. I kept hitting refresh to see if they were open though. I really missed you guys!
 
Oh my goodness, Anne!!! Yikes!

I've just been trying to recover from a scarily painful rib cage inflammation. (Nothing like hearing the doctor say as an afterthought (as in he'd already left the room and then stuck his head back in) "I want to do an EKG to rule out anything heart-related". :faint2 :giggle
 
Yikes Anne!!!

I'm on vacation so I haven't had much time on the interwebs... but I did get some Birthday and Christmas shopping done and have been visiting with friends and family... and working on getting pulling together stuff for DYD... I did bring a whole suitcase of scrappy stuff with me :giggle
 
I DL'd a bunch of stuff, and started to play a bit. I DEFINITELY need to get some major scrapping done tonight!!

Helped hubby update his resume. Yawn.

Not much really, unless you count stalking the forum to see if it was up & running yet!

It was definitely kinda scary. Anything you read on the condition (costochondritis) says "pain mimics heart attack", which I totally can see. It was pretty intense. The main thing that kept me from panicking was that the pain started in my neck/spine/shoulders and only later spread to the sternum. I'm on some good anti-inflammatory drugs that have me pretty comfortable most of the time. I'm just really tired and kind of out of it. Hopefully, I'll be all recovered and back to my normal why-do-the-kids-have-to-get-up-for-school-so-darn-early level of tiredness soon. :giggle
 
I found that there are PEOPLE living with me! It was weird! Like I cooked for them, and hung out with them, and did all kinds of stuff. So glad TLP is back! :)
 
Wow, so many things happened while TLP was away! As for me, I've been reloading the TLP forum again & again, then checked out the TLP Facebook page to find out if the maintenance was done...I miss the forum
 
Um, hit refresh till my finger went numb? ANybody else?

We've been pretty consumed with the typhoon that hit the Philippines. We are fine, but we can't stop watching the news & crying for the people down there who've lost everything.
 
Ugh Anne! Glad you caught him in time!
Kim, you're not going to believe this… I've had costochondritis since I was in high school! And you're right-- it sure does feel like a heart attack. My heart and thoughts are with you.
What did I do? I had a glorious (but lonely) day off without my kids for the first time since my baby was born last April. I did not leave my craft room and sewed and crafted all day, not even stopping for lunch. I made 2 dresses, two skirts, three onesies, one pair of pants, one pair of shoes and three shirts. Here are some of the finished products (I felt SO productive, doing things that I have been putting off for a while now):

I missed you all! Kudos to Amy for all the hard work!
 
I went away for the weekend on a creative retreat with some girlfriends. I got 11 weeks done in my Project Life. Feeling very inspired to keep going and (maybe) finally get caught up!

Missed everyone and sooooo glad to have our forum home back to its coziness!
 
I caught up on sleep since I've been working nights and researched vacation packages for our 10th anniversary trip in February! :)
 
Super-cute, Liana - the clothes and the kiddos! :D (And you've got mail!)
 
I went to a scrapping retreat last weekend and actually busted out 22 digi pages! It was so awesome! I finished scrapping my vacation to Key West in August and that was my main goal. Yahoo!

Anne... YIKES! So glad your house didn't burn down. Sorry he got hurt too. :( (I broke my collarbone twice as a kid)

Amanda, sorry you were sick... hope you're feeling better!

Kim... sounds scary. Hopefully you're on the mend now too.

Kristin... total LOL! People live with me too! Ha ha ha!

Liana!!! You rock the sewing machine girl! Fabulous!!
 
Laura! 11 weeks!!! i bow down! And Karen, 22 layouts?!! What?! You guys make me feel like a scrap peon!!

Liana, LOVE the clothes! Super adorable!
