Well hello back to blogland!! LOL!!! Sorry its been so long between blog posts - have had a LOT going on in my life - My depression hit a horrible low - but thankfully to some awesome friends and family supporting me and finding a fantastic GP i am back to my usual happy self!!! Ive even met someone and loving getting to know each other! I also had some health issues - which were terrifying but again thankfully came back good - I had to have an ultrasound and biopsy for a lump in my neck and faced the possibility of having lymphoma - after watching my nan battle cancer for years this possibility scared the crap out of me - I didnt handle it very well and the relief i felt when my tests came back clear was HUGE!!!! Again i had awesome support through this too -
You really come to find out who are the important ones in your life when you hit rock bottom or go through hard times like that! Anyway - enough of that - I wanted to record it on here aswell as explain my absence! I have LOTS of scrapping to share - im sure if your a friend of mine on facebook you already would have seen it as i am great at uploading my stuff on there - but sucky at updating my blog!! LOL!
So what else have i been up to this year??? Me and the kids have been doing lots of photo shoots - Which has been keeping me inspired with scrapping too - I really really want to get into photography so ive been getting to know my camera again - and its really inspiring me in my life aswell - I love taking photos and editing them and coming up with a great pic - and i love seeing the looks on peoples faces when i take pics of them or their kids and they love it too! I did the most beautiful baby photo shoot a few weeks ago and i am soooo pleased with the results and so was the mum! I definitely want to get into this as if i can do something like this that i love it would be sooo easy to go out and work!! LOL! My baby girl started kindy this year too - And loves it - I cant believe how grown up she is - she really does blow my mind sometimes how smart she is! Today was the kids easter hat parade - The first year i have gotten to see all 3 kids participate and i was such a proud mum - snapping away taking pics!! heehee! I havent been able to go out to crops much this year - as i havent had as much money as being a single mum is really hard on the bank balance i must say!! But i have gone to a couple of Savvy crops - I really love catching up with the girls and scrapping the night away! Matthew turned 9 in Feb - and Alicia turned 5 in March - Scares me how fast they grow up!! LOL!
So scrapping wise - i have been working on a 52 weeks of me - i have really been enjoying this one - its also making me take more pics and try and keep up to date with scrapping them each week - although in saying that i need to get some pics printed to catch up on the last 3 weeks!! LOL! I have also been working on the Savvy March challenges managed to get all of them done except the Savvy kit challenge cause i didnt have a savvy kit - but i am hoping to splurge this month and get an April one!! Waiting to see the full kits so i can decide which one to get! If anyone loves kits - go checkout scrapbooking savvy cause the kits that Sar puts together are just DEVINE!!!!!
Anyway - I think i have rambled on enough - and i have a lunch date tomorrow so need to get my beauty sleep - i will try to update a bit more from now on!! LOL!!! H
ope everyone is well!! :) Here are my first 6 pages from my 52 weeks of me!!! Hope you like them!
