The package is off!!!! I finished all of the projects for the Artisan Award contest and overnighted the package today. Now I have to wait until May 16th to find out if I am one of the lucky ten winners. Even if I don’t officially win the award, I won a personal victory by realizing that my ultimate favorite passion is to create. That is a prize worth so much more than money and a gift certificate! (Although those things would be nice, too!)

I was up until 1am cleaning up after spending the entire day working on the scrapbook and card projects for the Artisan Award. I only have to make two more cards. I love, love, love creating. I think it may have surpassed shopping at Target as my favorite thing to do.

I’ll post pix on April 1st.

Dream Weaver
My Version: I just close my eyes again, and climb aboard the dreams we’ve attained
Real Version: I just close my eyes again, and climb aboard the dream weaver train

Stop laughing! I’m sure there is more than one song out there that you have been singing the wrong words to, too!!! Don’t even try to pretend that you understand EVERYTHING Elton John is singing!!

I don’t know what else to call it…I feel so badly that except for the slide show, this blog is so Neil-less. I Googled some images of him that I know exist of his handing over those big cardboard checks to different counties across the USA, but none of them popped up. I was going to make a “Tribute to Neil” slide show. Trust me, we all love our Neily-Bear. Let me just say this to the YM and YW who read this blog…Harvey Ball lives on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
