Good vs. Evil

The preverbal David vs. Goliath! A battle years in the making.

In one corner we have the grand daddy of all piss offs. the rain on her parade.

Anxiety.!!!! (insert booing noise)

In the other corner…

the underdog that refuses to give up.

the one that keeps coming back for more.

crystal!!!! ( i hope your making that haaaaaaa fanfare noise)

——————————————————–

I read somewhere “Cleaning the house while your kids are still growing is like shovelling the walk before it stops snowing.”

So true.

i think i should get rid of the toys… or the kids

Isen’t it obvious?  I mean, where the hell is the desk top? So while I have a SHORT time between new years and when sprownies (code word for my spark and brownie groups that run back to back) starts, I’m going to try to clean up my office. I love the small square where my laptop can sit.

There’s a window there, that’s covered in wondrous piles of random crap.

There’s the fancy new printer copier fax in the corner that you can’t see because it has a binder on it.

What you don’t see in this picture is the 2 shelves and pantry unit just to the right of the picture that i’m pretty sure has not even 1 square inch of free space. Things randomly stacked, shoved and smooshed in to what tiny space I can get it in.

So I guess here is where I start. Organize my office before i organize my life. I find when my office is a mess my brain gets cluttered for sprownies. When that happens, it steam rolls.

SO… I challange you to do the same. Take a picture of your office/craft room and post a link in the comments section.

Be sure to tune in next week for operation organize…. the sequel.

Originally this blog started as a way to showcase some sneak peaks of some of my photography clients. But, since I never remember to get them up…this year my blog is taking on a whole new meaning.

While reading the Province newspaper this afternoon I found myself reading my “yearly”  horoscope. Now, I have never really relied much on what my horoscope tells me. Like most things i read, it is taken with a grain of salt. However one thing stood out to me in such a way that I felt the need to act on it.

“I am happiest using my powers to benefit others.”

Now, First things first. About me…

I am a wife, a daughter, a sister and a mother.

I take my daughter to dance, and soon, my son to hockey.

I am a spark leader, a brownie leader and a district commisioner with the Girl guides of Canada.

I am a PAC mom, and help there when I can, both in the elementary school and in the preschool.

I train my dog pepper, in agility with hopes that we will be ready to trial late next year.

I love to cook, scrapbook, make cards and photograph people.

I live a battle each and every day with an anxiety disorder that has left me housebound and praying for an end.

Every day I get one step closer to freedom.

I am me.

 They were so nice and mom was so fun to shoot! So was their adorable little girl!

Unfortunetly, despite a few decent pictures he was less then impressed with the trip.

Poor guy. lucky for him it’s his sisters turn next.

I will be shooting some of my favorite little people, in my favorite little things!
All in the name of style…
And a window display with my work in it.

So come spring, come on down and check it out.

then again, you could go now too.

But hurry… stuff like that dosen’t sit on their shelves long!

Kids in the winter snow
