Sicker than a dog

Huh. Where did that phrase come from? How sick do dogs really get? I've never had a sick dog. Or cat. But I am sick. My nose is stuff and my throat hurts and the Day-Quil is not working. Oddly, this makes me want to play in my craft room. I have lots of things I NEED to do this evening - like, um, feed my family. But I can't focus on that. Instead I made this.

This is a purely digital layout, printed on textured cardstock and stuck to the front of a hardcover journal. I started the journal awhile back but it was just plain black and boring on the outside. It's still boring on the inside too but that's another story. I will fill this journal with projects that I may or may not share with you, but that will make me happy. Someday my children will find it and either cherish it or think I'm dumb as a rock. Another interesting saying, although that one I pretty much get.

I'm on Facebook. Weird. I don't get it yet. I mean, I found a bunch of the crafty people that I blog-stalk so now I can facebook-stalk them also. I found my brother who I talk to every day because we work together and live in the same neighborhood, and one of his kids. I found my cousin and some other friends. But I don't really get it. I like blogging better I think. So far anyway.

Okay, here's a layout I did yesterday.

This was for a challenge over on Color Combos Galore. I finished this in about 30 minutes thanks to the template from JZ Designs. Seriously, once you know what you're doing in Photoshop, templates make the design part so simple. Love that I can complete a scrapbook page in under an hour start to finish.

Alrighty, I'm off to make sure my family doesn't starve. Maybe they will take me out for chicken soup. I really do feel like cr*p.
