And now here it is, January 2018 and not just seven years later, but a whole life time of changes.  Still scrapping, but doing it now in Texas. So, so many changes. I lost my mother in January of 2011, and then my husband in February 2011 and then my home in July 2011. But this is the second day of a brand New Year and I am ready for new beginnings, even if they are built upon sad memories. 

I found this old blog quite by accident today while I was researching some old resources for all things photoshop.  I will be back, but today there are too many things that need to be done. I am going in New Directions, hoping to regain some of what I have lost. And that takes at least a little bit of planning and a whole lot of endurance (will power) and hope, as well as a lot of gratitude to some of the people, ideas, and faith that have gotten me this far. I WILL BE BACK!

So here it is, January 2011 and I am amazed that this blog has not vanished into the great unknown. Peeps, I promise to do better in the future, but so much has been going on in my life that I just totally lost track of almost everything. I am still scrapping, mostly trying to complete some family and travel albums and doing my best to learn new things. I still like using Photo Impact (although I guess it is well on its way into vanishing forever) and Paint Shop Pro, but my real love now is Photo Shop - there is so much to learn and I find that so stimulating. Right now I am going to look around at this fascinating world of blogging and see what I have missed in the way of new stuff since my last entry (goodness - was that really almost three years ago?) I just hope I make it back this time.
