Catch ya on the flip side!
Good morning and happy day to ya... *S* I'm off to the parent cofenerence this morning. I think I have everything I could possibly need to do my workshop with. I want to have a variety of things there to show how easy or complicated scrapbooking can be. This workshop by far has the most stuff associated with it so far. I present Friday morning and am praying it goes well. I wish I had one thing though, a book of sayings and poetry. Those are wonderful for picking out something when you can't find the right words. Maybe I'll go see what I can find around here. I'll be back some time next week. However for now here is something to amuse you from
