Nearly 6 months already

Hello :D

I cannot believe it's been nearly 6 months since my last post...I suck, really I do....

I have a valid reason for my absence....I was offered a job at the school my kids go to, to be an LSA for a child with behavior problems.  After 10 days to think about it, I decided to take on the challenge.

Thinking that having a job, which was only for school hours, I would have the luxury of having the best of both worlds!!!!  Boy was I wrong!!!  I end up with very little time to myself at the end of the day, and sadly my scrapping has taken a major back seat.  I visit my craft room often and get a little sad when I see my unused supplies and tools all sitting there, waiting to be loved again....

I have a goal to at least scrap one page a week, even if I get to spend only 20  min a day in my "happy place" at the end of the corridor :D

I did go on a scrapping binge during a recent school break, and worked feverishly to get some of my Summer Travel Album done...I am not yet finished with it, and it's been 8 months since we were in London and Paris (hanging head in shame).

I also managed a little sneaky time and caught up with my old scrap group last month.  It was nice to be back with the girls.  I really do miss you all so very much!!!!

I have 2 pages which I would like to share with you....The first is "Growing Up In The Gulf".  It was taken when we visited Global Village which is an annual theme park here in Dubai.  It is exactly as it's name suggests, a Global Village, where you can visit all parts of the world by means of halls set up with items from whichever country you are visiting at the time....


The next picture is once again of my favorite subject....my beautiful children.  This is the page I did during my sneaky visit with the girls from TUESDAY THERAPY, at Creative Hands.  The title pretty much says it all.....Adore....and I do, they are my world.....


Thanks again for stopping by, and hopefully I won't be half a year before I post again!!!!

Happy Scrapping!!
