I've finally be scrapbooking again. It's been awhile because I ran out of pictures that were from my old 35mm camera and only have pics on disc. That means I have lots and lots of processing to get done. I have about 4000 pictures on discs from Dec. 1999 to the present that need to be processed and really, that just intimidates me. So, I decided to stop working in the past and trying to catch up. I had all my pics from August processed last week and have put them all into scrapbook layouts already. Now I'm going to get July's done and work on those next and if I keep doing it like that, working back, instead of forward, I think I might actually acheive the elusive "caught up" that scrapbookers strive for. I have completed these layouts, but haven't scanned them yet so I can't share. Maybe I can do that tomorrow night while Chris is working. Though I really need to work more on my vacation journal, it's sorely neglected.
I've decided to start Tabs on a math program. We did some sample work today from the curriculum and she loved it and asked for more, so I feel confident I found the right one. We'll be starting her at the first grade level. I'll probably purchase it very soon because she's anxious to get started. But first I have to order Chris's textbooks though. He started classes two days ago. It's a state school and I'm sure many of you have heard lots of lovely things about the current state of California, so he didn't have the best of luck getting classes. He got two he needs, but they weren't what he wanted to start with.
Anyway, we have a fun weekend planned. Tomorrow Tabitha has a playdate and Sunday morning we're going to head off to a promo event in the hopes of meeting Eric Gagne, star closer for the Dodgers. He's French-Canadian like my hubby and child so that makes him even more special, lol. Night.
