October is Here.....

I know I know I am a very bad blogger.... I should have posted before now lol. Well all I can say is October is a crazy month for me. I started a new job and it's day shift I am not use to working day shift. I come home around 4 pm and all I want to do is sleep.

Also on October 12th we marked the 8th anniversary of my mother's passing. It was a quiet day for me I spent it in reflection thinking about my mom...

Also I have a couple of layouts to show you that I made with my DT kit from Jessica at Scraptastic Club. This month I got to play with Nightmare On My Street Kit. Let me tell you it is packed with Halloweeny goodness yummy. You need to run not walk over to www.scraptasticclub.com and get your self one of these kits before they are all gone. She still has some kits from last month as well if you want one of them as well..

Okay here are 2 of my projects so far.







That's all fopr today i will back soon with more

Soupy Saturday

I don't know about you all but here where I am it's raining again.. Sigh.. I am getting sick of the rain, I wanted to do a total house cleaning today but it's a little hard when I have 3 boys underfoot. I want to send them outside but that won't happen today lol..

So instead I am going to clean my basement lol what fun that will be...

I'm waiting for my October kit from Scraptastic Club so i can work on my DT projects, I haven't pulled any pictures yet because I don't know which kit I will be getting hehehe it's so exciting. I'm like a kid in a candy store... I hope it arrives on Monday so I can get to work on some projects.

October is a hard month for me it marks to sad anniversaries for me first the death of my mother she was 52 years old when she died it will be 8 years this year, I was 7 months pregnant when she died on our Thanksgiving ( Canadian) and it was a few years before I would celebrate that holliday again. Now that I have 3 little boys at home under the age of 10 I started celebrating for them because they asked me to.

The second anniversary and the hardest for me is of my beloved son Alexander he would have been 18 years old this year and on October 29 it will be 5 years since he took his own life at the age of 13. I do not tell people this wanting their sympathy I tell them to make them aware that this is happening to our children and we need to do something about it. So the next time you want to donate to a charity or something think about something like the kids help phone line or a suicide hotline, you never know you may save a life.

Well I am done with my ranting for now. I need to go do some cleaning and get some medication for this blasted cold I have ughh I feel I'm walking around in a fog yuck

Till Next time have a good onbe
