So I’ve started a free on line class over at JessicaSprague.com titled stories in hand. It’s really inspired me in many areas so far. It’s inspired me in scrapbooking again, in my blogging venture, and in my journaling. quite simply…it’s exactly what i need at this stage in my life. i hope it will help me in recording the precious memories the girls are making, as well as my husband and i. we tend to overlook ourselves and our need to be together and alone quite often…due to that, I’ve decided to start writing to him more and sharing my heart with him that way. whether it’s via emails to work, stickies on the mirror, or phone messages in his voice mail. i want to talk to him more. my words have value, and how & when i choose to use them is so important to our relationship.
I’m not sure if you can still sign up, but jump over there and try! I’m so excited to see what this class will help me achieve in becoming creative as well as documenting my mind.
we’re on day 4, and each day gets better than the last! tomorrow we’re starting the writing process, and i’ll try and fill you in a bit more on that as i learn!
ok, so i’m editing todays post to include more! LOL. i’m SUPER excited to share with you all that i’ve printed a few of my digital scrapbooking pages! i was inspired by all the printing i was doing for the class listed above….and, well, lets jus say i’m SUPER happy with how it’s turning out! no, i don’t have a 12×12 printer, but i’m doing it all in 8×8, and LOVE it! i’m really thinking about changing my scrapbooking size to 8.5×11 and just putting them into page protectors and into binders. they’re beautiful, they’re crisp, and exactly what i expected! hop over to my digital scrapbooking page over on the sidebar….check out some pages i’ve posted there! thanks for sharing my excitement with me!
another new topic…as many of you know, oprah is on a clean up your messy house tour. along with that, she’s joined snapfish in giving out a free photobookfor her viewers! it expires tomorrow (friday), so be sure to head over there and create one real quick! i really hope i find the time to head over there yet and see what i can come up with in such a short amount of time! hmm…i’m thinking a 2007 year in review book….or a 0-3 months baby book for ali. oh the possibilities!

Hi Jessica
Apparently I bumped you out of the alphainventions cycle – and this is the consolatory hello as recommended.
To add insult to injury – could I ask you, when you have a moment, how do you work the technical side of running an online class? I want to try it very soon. (I’m a teacher – but face to face only so far.)
Regards

Monday Morning Muffin Magic! « {seasons} of the heart
[...] Monday Morning Muffin Magic! Filed under: …just ME! — barbara @ 12:32 am Morning! Last week I challenged myself to post a recipe again soon, and as I thought of what to make, I got hungrier and hungrier. Finally, I caved and made muffins. The girls where at MIL’s for the day, and the baby would nap a large portion of the day, so i set out to clean, bake and do laundry. All those things I had been neglecting in the last week as I was creating my book from my online course I mentioned last Thursday. [...]
