new stuff

So yesterday  I'm editing photos and I turn to one of the music channels on tv and my jaw dropped on the floor. I had to completely stop what I was doing, put on my glasses and watch because one of the guys from the band looked EXACTLY like my ex husband. The funny thing was that my ex had been playing guitar for over 12 years so he was REALLY good at it...I mean GOOD. And he would always dream of playing in a band...he sure had the capability for it. Forget about singing, but the boy had skills when it came to guitar lol. and the band guy wasn't singing..he was only playing guitar and his facial expressions were like almost identical to what my ex did when he played. It was totally WEIRD! So anyways, I'm sitting there telling myself theres no way...it can't be him. Is it??? nahhhhhh...OMG it is!--noooo it can't be. This went on for a GOOD 10 minutes and I couldn't get a good enough look so I actually had to find the band on the internet to see more pictures which ended in the final determination that it wasn't him...but OMG can you imagine?? I was freaking out. Anyways, the band was called "all american rejects" or something like that. The name sounds familiar...they are probably popular lol. So that was the biggest event of my weekend lol..I know I live a very venturous and exciting life...who wants to come over???

So I did do a little creating. I actually kind of like the layouts for once lol. They are for a special thing that Prima is going to do soon so I used all prima stuff from the Odyssey line which is awesome and bright and makes me smile :)

and lately I've been kind of emotional. Its really weird because I normally can pinpoint why...ya know?--like something causing it. But I can't pinpoint it this time and it's driving me crazy. dude...it's bad...like anything will make me cry. and I've been feeling kind of bummed out everyday. Have you ever felt like that before??--I mean where you don't even have a CLUE why you are feeling that way? How did you get over it?

Off to get some sleep! I'm excited to see what the catwalk picks are tomorrow night at sis tv! OH and wish me luck...I'll be weighing in at weight watchers after work tomorrow. :)
hugs, Adrienne

Hi Adrienne!
I love your pages so much! Do you mind if I "lift" the trapazoid paper scraps edged in black on the sides of a photo? Very cool.

I'm sorry you are feeling "blue".... I know that one myself.... sometimes when I am dieting the emotions come up more because I am not "stuffing them down with food", as I usually do. They surface and need to be experienced through~ worked OUT! As one commenter said, with a journal, art etc. and exercise is great for endorphins and burning calories, but sometimes you get so low, you can't even do that, and you get anti-depressant meds, like I did. Nothing to be embarrassed about, but get help if you need it... take care of yourself however that looks to you (a massage? Read a book in the tub? Make a "playdate" with a friend?) Love yourself just the way you are... special, talented and beautiful!
Erin : )

Your layouts blow me away! You are such a breath of fresh air. There are so many talented scrappers on the net that sometimes it takes me a while to make the rounds. But each time I come back to your blog it is like "HELLO, this is awesome!" So I'm adding you to my blog list because how was I living before experiencing some spectacularness?!?! How? LOL.
Sorry you're feeling down. My therapist says feeling down is a good thing because it indicates something needs a fixin'. Good luck at the weigh in! Weight watcher is good times.
Bises,

Love the new layouts! Just so beautiful!

Maybe it's just the stress of so many changes in such a short time. I hope things are looking up for you real soon.

I hope the WW weigh in was a success.

I remember when I quit college, got married, and moved to another state, I was feeling really emotional and freaked out all the time. My mom said I was stressed. I said that wasn't possible because they were all GOOD changes, so why would I be stressed over them? She said that our bodies & minds see stress as any change from the normal. So even if it's a good change (like getting a new job and moving ;) our bodies need time to get used to it.

Just a thought. Have a great day!

I totally understand what you are going through right now. Sometimes it feels like you are never going to get out of it, that you are stuck. I went through that before, and I no explanation, and I am going through that right now, because my husband is gone to AFBT.
What helped go through it and is helping me know is to keep a journal, right everything down,even if if hurts to write, also, painting, drawing, taking pictures, walking. Try to challenge yourself with something that you never did before, related to arts or sports, I think that would help! And something that helped me: "it's only going to get better"... that kept me going!
Sometimes it's just good to cry, to release everything...and talk to someone you trust
I hope those tips will help you, like they helped me and still do, in this hard time.
I love your blog!!!!
Have a great day

[Annemieke]

Hey hi!!! I know what you mean.... I sometimes have some time that I can feel really bad. Not physical, but emotional. If someone says BOOOO... I almost start crying! LOL. Most of the times it's because I'm stressed (just like now) But sometimes it's because of nothing.... I always say it are my hormones and I can't do a thing about it! So my boyfriend has to be patience with me!!! LOL
Maybe you should go shopping and buy something real nice... well... it could help maybe....

Off to pack my suitecase, cus I'm going to morocco with my sis tomorrow... (gets me totally stressed!!!!)

Well, good luck with the WW tomorrow and hope you'll feel better soon!
