Playing a bit of Catch-Up!

warning: today's blog post is going to be all over the place. ;o)

**********

I am feeling a bit overwhelmed today.

In the last month or so, I took on several new obligations:

*Friday Fun Challenge

*Limelight Papercrafts DT

*Paper Makeup Stamps DT

*organizing Friends with Flair for Unity Stamp Co. with Maren

I have no doubt that I can manage doing them all, but right now I feel like I am constantly forgetting something. So, today, I am organizing my calendars and check-lists so that I am sure to stay on top of things/obligations/DT's.

**********

I also have several fun things that I want to share with you all on the blog over the next few days...a few favorite's lists from 2009, a revisit of my to-do resolutions by age 40 (August) list, etc.

So today is my day to get organized and get my thoughts in order.

But first, I have a Paper Makeup Stamps share that I have needed to post since Friday!?! (see, I NEED to get organized!!!)

Every Friday, over on the PMS blog, there is a Makeup for the weekend challenge. Last week's challenge was to create a Christmas/holiday scrapbooking page.

I don't have any of the PMS Christmas stamps (I know, what is up with that?!? I think that I need to go shopping...) so I had to get a bit creative with my page. I have had this quote from PMS for a while about being a mother of a little girl, but hadn't figured out exactly what I wanted to do with it, but then I found these photos of Kat and me from last Christmas and inspiration struck. {click on the layout to see the details better!}
