Updates.

This is that fun shirt that Auntie Jessie sent Simon for his birthday. He calls it the "cow" shirt. I call it cool.
Here's the updates:
1. No AEzine this week. I got behind on a bunch of projects that I needed to complete. Look for a new one next Wednesday.
2. I have decided that I need to stay home this weekend/next week and work on my new book rather than attend CHA. I love going - so fun to catch up with everyone and see all the new products but I really need to buckle down and get to work so I can make the tight deadline. If you are going - have a GREAT time. There have been lots of sneak peeks floating around on the web - lots of cool stuff coming out. Bummed to miss the chance to hear Martha...but this is the right choice for right now.
My goals today (are you guys list makers like me?):
1. Finish May Studio A article.
2. Take Simon to the library and come home with a basket full of books.
3. Clean up studio to be able to get to work. I am super excited about projects I will be adding to this book - my Disney stuff, Japan and Australia travel albums, Chris' campaign story, + lots more good everyday stuff. Have lots of project folders overflowing with contents. Excited to have a chunk of time this next week to attack them.
4. Watch a movie on the couch with Chris tonight (also known as chilling before diving in to work on Saturday).
5. Emails.
Have a great Friday.

The best we can do is to be true to ourselves even when everything looks so good and inviting. Have a good weekend catching up and filling those pages of your book, so we can read them!!

Ali,
I am looking forward to see your new book. Especially, project about Japan! I will go to Japan next month. I am so excited to go shopping at scrapbook store in Japan. I am sure I will go to the store you went to in Japan!
Have a nice weekend!

Good luck with all of your goals! I am impressed with your decision to stay behind from CHA, that would be a tough decision!

Love the glue t-shirt. TOO FUN!! I think you made a wise choice. Sometimes you just gotta say "NO" so you can say "YES" to other stuff!! Have a great weekend! Peace and blessings!!

Bummer no Zine this week, but I TOTALLY understand. I hope you have a GREAT evening with Chris before you have to dive into all of your work. Good luck.

P.S. LOVE Simon's Elmer's shirt! It's my new best friend lately, LOL (I feel like I'm a kid again using it soo much).

The downside of being a WAHM, right? Work your tail off all weekend while Daddy's home? I've been there many many times. Hope you get lots and lots accomplished, and Chris finds lots of fun ways to occupy Simon. :-)
