Kay, first off Leeandra I know you’re here looking for an anniversary post. I lost almost the entire post Monday night and have since been trying to decide whether it’s something I really want to post here with a handful of people looking to find fault in anything I might say in regards to my failed marriage. Have I mentioned here specifically that I have a failed marriage? Yup I do. Oddly though I probably never mentioned that I had a marriage at all so maybe that gives insight into how long it’s been a failing marriage. Anyway, I may change my mind later but for now it’s just not something I want to discuss here. That being said, I do want to mention that I have nothing bad to say about my ex. I think one of the most important things about the post I had originally written was that I am extremely grateful for the way he has handled the separation. Quite frankly I’m not sure I could’ve emotionally dealt with it had he handled the past few months the way anyone else would’ve expected him to. I think it’s a true example of God not allowing you to go through any more than you can handle. We make far better friends than we ever did husband and wife. Anyway, somehow that condenses about 6 paragraphs of rambling into 1 but for now that’s all I have to say here about the 14th anniversary of the day I said ‘I do’.
So, moving onward because that pending post and a LO I had been working on has prevented me from posting about pretty much anything else. Probably 6 months to a year ago, amidst the chaos of life, I mentioned posting a list of my tags that I use in ACDSee. Have you bought this program yet? I haven’t talked about it in awhile but I still love it so much. So the following is the list of categories I use for tagging my scrapping supplies. This is the list that works for me. It depends alot on how you scrap and what types of elements you use most so you may want to use this as a starting point and add or remove categories from there. I sort my kits as I download them into folders by designer/store so I don’t use the tagging system to attach designer names. I know some people do that as well but for me it just hasn’t seemed necessary. Tagging all of my supplies really didn’t take nearly as long as I thought and I’ve done a pretty good job keeping it up. I can’t even imagine scrapping again without this program. If you have any questions about any of the categories as far as what types of things I put in it, etc just hollar. Any other questions about how I use the program I’ll try and answer here too. :)
Other than that I had a long memorial day weekend. Usually they go by too fast but for me this one seemed like it went on too long. Got a lot of fun pics of pixel and our activities and have a scrap page almost finished with those so I’m sure I’ll be posting that soon. The highlight of our weekend was going to the Memorial Day parade and having brunch with my best friend Jill’s family. Other than that my car didn’t leave the garage from Friday night thru Monday morning. Pixel and I really need to get a life. We spent much of the weekend doing this…
Kay, got a couple ladies coming over to the apartment tonight to pick up some boutique stuff and do a little digi-scrapping related fun stuff. Hopefully I can finish up that ‘weekend in the life of Pixel’ LO and get that posted later and start one of a few others I’ve got floating around in my head.
