An old edit

I was going through some pictures and came across an old edit. I couldn't find the original picture but the edit was dated for June of 2016.

The photo portrays a picture other than what was actually happening. To me the picture is showing a person who is deeply troubled. The truth is that I was pointing a camera at Wade and he was hiding from it.

I played a little bit to see if I could remove the beer can and so long as you didn't know it was there before it is passable

I think by doing this picture in black and white it gave it a more emotional feeling than what was really there.

Speaking of emotional feelings, I was a bit bummed when I discovered that this past week I gained a pound back instead of losing any. Can you say "woe is me".

Going back

I went back to the first November after I started this blog and here is the post from Nov 7 2008.


I thought I would share my latest scrapbook page with you. I've been working on it for several days and just couldn't get it to look right. I finally finished it tonight and was pretty happy with the way it turned out.



The kit I used for the LO was a freebie on www.shabbyprincess.com and it was created by Carrie Stephens Designs.
I always have a problem when it comes to the journaling part, so I went in search of something suitable to put on this one. I absolutely loved this one that I found on www.quotegarden.com
Just in case you can't read it on the LO it reads:
When I can look life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange -- my youth.

Just one more

Only one more picture from Halloween and then I'll move on to something else.

After my son and his fiance left my house they stopped at the local fire hall for the halloween festivities there. Then it was off for some trick or treating. Apparently Presley was just a wee bit hungry and that was the cause for her slight grumpiness.

Her mom sent me some pictures and here is the one of her and her dad

Would you believe...

...that I went to work dressed like this yesterday

My son and his fiance stopped by yesterday before taking Presley trick or treating. I tried to get a picture of her but she was in a very fussy mood and wouldn't stop crying . I'm afraid between the weather and Presleys mood it may have been a very long evening for them.
