In Bed With Scrapability

General everyday life (if you can call any-body’s general, that is) 

• Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired (sing along with me). Lost count of how many nights I was asleep early, and dragging myself to work the next day.
• 120 personal scrapability emails in the inbox to deal with. Yes, I counted them - and I belong to too many yahoo groups. Answered quite a few questions about blogging this week. I don’t know why - perhaps people want a blog for spring.
  
• Shhh, quirky things coming faster now.
  
• Looking forward to - something I’m doing with my virtual friend Swamplovely. Actually, I know she’s not made up - I’ve got mail art from her before.
  
• Reading - managed to read the latest CK out here in the UK - Aprils I think. Now I’m out of order, as March and Feb sit under my bed awaiting my attention.
  
• Installed - Blade Pro - got this on sale from a local retailer for £10. Can’t make head or tail of it, to be honest. Not exactly a great learning curve.
  
• My big weekend exists of creating two layouts, finding hundreds of links for something I’m very committed to, and going to feed the duckies with my daughter. Hardly thrilling - but…
• Started on - Digital PSP classes through SBB. Finally got to log on, and did a rush job through the first week’s exercises. Hope I don’t get booted out for not doing the homework.
  
• Not done - but should have been - a challenge I issued - yes I issued for quirk-misters to create something. And I haven’t yet done my own. At least I had the good sense to issue no deadline on it. And secondly, I promised to create a Scrap Yourself layout, and still haven’t. I had some portrait photos taken - they’re really krap. I have the idea, not the time. And thirdly - I involved myself in a work-based photography competition, and haven’t got around to taking any photos - the theme is reflections. I want to take a mirror photo but am not sure how. Can anybody say the words - too many committments - to me!  Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
