Huh? What DOES my husband do?

I never know what my husband is talking about he will get home and be talking about work and say thinks like sprocket turning and industrial knobs and flexible steel burning and all I can do is nod! I know he works with steel, and he manages the office, but as many times as he has tried to explain the chain bearings and steel pallets I just dont get it! Lucky for me I dont have to. LOL A while back we had a neighbor in trouble so the police were going around talking to everyone, I was startled and flustered when they came to me and he asked what my husband did and my reply was “steel stuff” LOL The police officer looked at me funny and I realized what I said and had to backtrack and explain that I meant steel, like metal and sprockets, not STEAL!! LOL The guy got a real laugh out of that one! He now knows never to talk to a woman fresh out of a shower with a towel on her head!

Loving my new printer

I talked a while back about shopping for printers, I finally got one, a Cannon Pixma and have been playing, printing out brag book pages for Christmas presents, calendar pages, etc. I have already used over half the ink! LOL I see myself needing to find a cheap source for ink if I want to keep printing like this! LOL Anyone have any good sources they buy through I can check out? Thanks!

A Brand new FixTunes- (Not a Dud!)

A while back I downloaded and tried the program FixTunes and I was not wholly pleased, HOWEVER, after reformatting and still having a music mess I gave it another try. It just finished working it’s magic and this time I guess either I did it right, or it’s upgrades made the difference. I will definitely recommend it now, I have officially converted! LOL As part of my newfound organized music folder I have gotten 10 free copies of the program for you to have! (Thanks FixTunes!) So the first 10 commenters will get the code to get FixTunes for FREE!

I am not going to go into how to use the program, it is really simple and the site lays it all out if you need more information. One of my main reasons for wanting it was that I was missing so many music tags that I had dups of some songs, and in ITunes all I had were little black albums, I wanted the pretty origional album cover to play! I am picky like that. And jeeez, the misspellings drove me nuts! I am so happy to be all neat and pretty! Ok, get to commenting and I will email you the CODE asap! (I do have a 2 month old here, so it may take a few hours to email you!)

Oh My! And some good news!

I got picked to be on a Creative team!!!! For Shazbutt’s DigiScraps, you can see her store here and her blog here. I get to try out her new designs and make layouts with them that will hopefully inspire others to buy her kits and templates! I have already made three layouts with her supplies, see them below- I am pretty proud! :-)

On other news, I was researching printing photo books again and really paid attention this time- turns out I need to add .25 to all sides of my layouts AND make sure nothing important is on the 1/3rd of the page edge…. huh? Yeah, I am thinking the same thing… Lucky for me I have only made 22 layouts so far that I plan on printing, So I am going through all of them, one by one and checking to be sure everything will look right, it would SUCK to spend 50 dollars printing a book only to have half my journaling cut off! Most of them will be an easy fix, but the one I am worried about is the 2 pager I made with her picture in the middle! I may have to rethink that one! We will see!

Ok, off to bed, I GOTTA get some sleep!

Boots for the hubby

I have got to find boots for my hubby, his are falling apart! The store we usually get his from no longer carries them (of course!) And there is not much of a selection here in town. Looking online I found some cool MBT shoes but they are a bit expensive, but I am thinking about getting him an expensive pair and see if they last longer, I am sick of replacing them!! What boots do you all recommend?
