Hope 2010


I feel that I need  to reconnect with my faith.  It's not that I lost it.  I think I just need it now more then ever with all the crazy stuff that is going on.  I just found out that there will probably be lay-offs in the near future in my school district.   Our governor wasn't honest on how much money the district needed to cut and we came up short.   It's kind of scary because my kitchen has the most people out of all the schools which makes us believe that we will be first.   I am also concerned with the quality of educated my children are going to get with these cuts.  It seems like the children always have to suffer instead of cutting people at the district office.  They aren't really in contact with children on a daily bases.  Anyways, I really don't want to worry because it's not going to get me anywhere and it's not going to change the situation. (I'm just venting. I refuse to worry.) So, I want to start playing in the Hope 2010 Challenge and Hope for a better future.
I am not sure of want I wanted to do with it.   I can either make a card or I can do a scrap book page.   I was leaning towards a 6x6 scrapbook page because I really want to start scrap booking again but cards are more FUN.

I didn't use any stamps (GASP!)  I know. I used mostly my Cricut and SCAL 2.   Honestly, I never saw the appeal of the Cricut. I had mine on Craigslist for the longest time but not until I got SCAL 2 did I see the AWESOMENESS of the Cricut.  It has opened my eyes.   I only have the baby bug and now I want/need the Expression.  LOL!

Well thanks for stopping by and listening to me vent.  
TFL!  Tomorrow is FRIDAY!   Yah!
