Hello?! Is anybody there?

**As I clear away the cobwebs and dust**
HELLO!!
Here is an update on me.....
Bottom line, I do not spend much time at my computer any more.
Maybe this is a good thing? lol I work 30+ hours a week on one now. So, to come home and be on mine, no no no no! lol I also have to share one computer with 4 others in this house. Two are avid PC gamers. 'Nuff said.
In a complete nutshell, I do not spend much time creating anything like I used to. I was diagnosed back in Kansas by two doctors with Rhumatoid Arthritis. Long story short here, I am just now getting the treatment I need, and it is more serious than at first thought. The meds I am on now are starting to help, but I am in for a long haul and scrapping/stamping has taken a back burner, along with most things I want to/like to/need to do. For a really cool page on RA and what it is all about, check this page out HERE (Thank you to the person that created that page! So helped my kids understand what the heck was going on with me!)
I did finish 3 scrapbooks for my sister. Hundreds of photos from her birth to her wedding. That task took me countless hours over the past 2 years with the help of my daughter Rachel, who is now a certified scrap addict. *smiling in glee* I could not have done the work without Rachel's help!
My wonderful hubby gave me a Cricut Expression for my birthday in May. With my Sports Mania cartridge I cut out footballs and helmets and the letters PATRIOTS for my son Alex's wall in red, white and blue drop shadows.
With my Tinkerbell and Friends cartridge I cut out all kinds of random things and created a Tink wall in my walk in closet in my bedroom. Complete with lots of Stickles, of course!
Now, your saying...Jenn, where's the pictures?
My camera is on the fritz. My flash leaves something to be desired with a orange-ish cast to most pictures. Need to email Santa my wish list. ;)
