take my scissors, please

I got to go home early on Friday, so I took Gandalf outside again. This was the result:

Gandalf's head and some ivy.

Gandalf's head and some pink azaleas.

His tail with some lavender azaleas...

...and again with some red azaleas.

I'm done posting pictures today. I promise.

I love my new icon. As usual, the ever-generous Jessica iconed the picture for me.

I have a very busy week coming up...a million lunches, dinner tomorrow night with Yolanda (my Streets girl), band practice, Maundy Thursday service, more band practice, other Easter activities. In my "spare time," I need to be working on Debra's scrapbook. I'm not very happy with it so far. I'm doing it chronologically, but I feel like the book has no flow. Each page is a different color instead of flowing all together, and I'm running out of creative ideas for borders. I can't crop the pictures, either, because I don't have very many pictures to begin with and I don't want to end up with a five-page book. I feel that it looks very unprofessional and I'm sure my mother won't like it. Kathy has to keep reminding me that it's Debra's book and she's going to love it. I am stressed anyway.

A nap would be nice right now.

I don't get tired of the pictures! :) More Ovaltine, please.

Don't get discouraged about the book. You're looking at it from a design and flowy perspective, but Deb is going to just enjoy looking at what pictures you chose and that you even made her the book. I get caught up in details about things I design, but I have to remember that others just want the information and won't notice that as much. So...that is my analogy for you.

Also, do you like how I refer to your sister, who I have never met, as "Deb"?

Thanks for the encouragement. :)

Yeah, I think, when I meet Dawn, I'll call her "D" or something. :) lol. No one calls my sister Deb. It's Debs, since we're all about the unnecessary plurals in my family. :) Don't ever call her Debbie, though. She might kill you.
