More Remodeling

I finished getting cabinets in my scraproom now it is on to the rest of the house.  I will never understand home builders.  They never put enough closets or storage in a house.  Today I contacted my cabinet guy and hopefully he can start working on the living  area of this home.  We need appropriate storage and seating in our living area.  We have a really cool brick fireplace with a brick mantel.  I am hoping that he can make an Oak Fireplace Mantel with bookshelfs off to the sides that works into a cabinet that will hold our TV.

I just got an email from John.  Due to the economy he is moving his shop into a co-op shop so it will be a little while before he can start.  That is ok, just gives me time to save more money.  Ok maybe, you never know what new scrapbooking supplies I will NEED.

Back to Rainy and Cold

It is springtime in the Pacific Northwest, but you would not know it by the rain, wind, hail and cold temperatures today.  Normally we have had a week of 70 degree temps.  This year we have had 2 day's since January 1 that have reached 70.  I will not complain as Friday and Saturday were beautiful.  We even hit 65.  WOHOO!  But today it is just reached 54 and it is 4:30pm.  I did finish a layout that I started last week today.  If I am lucky Tanya's album for 1981 will be done sometime before I go to Texas.

Mariners v Rangers Layout


Still working on my 2010 SRW retreat pictures.  Using stash is the game plan in my studio this year.  I have been collecting anything that I think would be cool on a scrapbook page. Now I am trying to use them. 

Has anyone else ever thought "oh that is the most perfect embellishment ever made", then never used it? Hope I am not the only one with this disorder.
