Nice huh?<br /><div><div><div><div></div><div>I cant even say I have been productive in that time either! I have been working my tail off, and traveling back and forth to PGH to visit with family, and sleeping when I get time. So let me catch you up...<br /></div><div>Mimi and Dad came to visit at the end of October and we had a blast. We went to the stockyards, the Kig Tut exhibit, and medeval times. Mimi and I got our toes done, and we all relaxed around the house.<br /></div><div>The following weekend, I went home to PGH to visit with my aunt rene. I spent some time at her house, and some time with my mom, sister, and nieces. It was a short visit, but still worth it.<br /></div><div>Right before Thanksgiving, Brett and I went to Vegas. We had the time of our lives. We have been saving for a year, and price wasnt an issue for anything... we just did whatever we wanted. Brett won at blackjack a few times andso i got to purchase a few items for myself. I got a toggle necklace with matching bracelete, and earings from Tiffany & Co.</div><div></div><br /><div>We stopped in Denver on our way home for another short visit. We were there just long enough to eat Thanksgiving Dinner and Play Wii. The day after Thanksgiving I got a call from my mom that my aunt wasnt doing well at all. My wonderful in'laws put me on a plane and sent me to PGH to visit and say goodbye. I was home for less than 24 hours but I felt i needed to be there one last time. I am very glad I went. </div><div></div><br /><div>I returned home on Sunday, and while at work on Wednesday I got a call that my aunt had gone. She passed while in her home surrounded by her three amazing kids. I left on Thursday afterschool to get the PGH for all of the viewings and such.<br /></div><div>I returned home on Monday... and I have been catching up at work since... and im still not caught up, but well on my way.</div><div></div><br /><div>Since I last posted, I have joined the very Creative and Exciting Duchess CT... and I love it! I have created a few layouts using Maria's Designs and I thought Id post a few for you...</div><div> </div><div></div><div>I made the first two using Royal Treatment </div><div> </div><div>The second two are both created with papers and elements from Rockin Robin.</div><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278728746212021858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gOjkjAXMvcQ/SUHP06ecVmI/AAAAAAAAAOE/KyS6_xbmK6k/s320/Haircut.jpg" border="0" /><br />For this Layout I also used Template pack 7 <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278728740998459186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gOjkjAXMvcQ/SUHP0nDbrzI/AAAAAAAAAN0/0zWwUGBsm9E/s320/Boo-Boo.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278728743296443442" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gOjkjAXMvcQ/SUHP0vnUJDI/AAAAAAAAAN8/fmrYmTqDAco/s320/Finger-Puppet.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278728736714112290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gOjkjAXMvcQ/SUHP0XF9vSI/AAAAAAAAANs/aFPEDSBZzog/s320/Lumpy-Ears.jpg" border="0" />Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08792768091876290628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443019204484021630.post-13235512327173716282008-11-01T21:33:00.002-04:002008-11-01T21:37:02.486-04:00Digital Candy Fall Scrap-a-thonHead over to DC where Rachel of Steel City Scraps is hosting the Fall Scrap-a-thon.

For any of you who didnt know, I have moved to Texas with my husband Brett. He ahs been here for about a year now because of work, and I finished school, student taught, and graduated back in the Burgh. I moved on June 21st. (yeah I know Im a little late on the update)!<br /><br />I was able to head back home for about a week and a half to visit with my mom at the lake. It was nice and relaxing. I got to spend some quality time with both her, and my aunt candi. We really had a great time.<br /><br />I am now here for good. Since I moved at the end of June I have been anticipating placement interviews with principals. Everytime we would schedule one, the principal would call back and cancel because she hired someone else. This became VERY frustrating, but everything happens for a reason. At the time, I couldnt understand what reason this was other than rudeness, but now I am glad I ddint interview for any of those jobs.<br /><br />Two days after getting back I interviewed with a fabulous principal and a well recognized school in Fort Worth. She hired me on the spot for a second grade math position. THIS TOTALLY SUITS ME!!! I have been so excited that I am bursting for days.<br /><br />Today, the Texas Department of Education made me want to scream, cry, and spaz all day long. They have decided that one of my Praxis exams will not be accepted and now I have a year to take their test...(yeah, I thought when I got the degree I was done...apparently not!) So now rather than getting a standard 5 year certificate, I have to take a one year emergency/probationary certificate. I have one year to take and pass their test.<br /><br />Here is what really threw me into full spaz mode - My probationary certificate will not be complete until after school starts! In fact, they have no idea when it will be ready. I was told to wait in line! (how rude)<br /><br />Luckily, my school district's human resources dept is AMAZING! they are going to accept my letter of eligibility from the Commonwealth of PA until my probationary certificate is complete.<br /><br />THANK THE LORD!!!!!<br /><br />Once all of that came to a close this afternoon, I was able to calm down and have a nice dinner with Brett. I made Garlic Chicken with one of those Campbell's Chicken Bakes... I LOVE THEM!<br /><br />We hung around, and then went to the gym. Now it is 2am, Brett is asleep, and as usual, I stuck awake! O well, it gives me time to scrap, and blog.<br /><br /><br />(and eat brownies)Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08792768091876290628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443019204484021630.post-65621190839207072302008-07-03T03:18:00.002-04:002008-12-10T15:49:18.665-05:00Our Musical GeniusTo create this layout I used Tapstry Blues by Jenlin Designs.
