What do you do with the paper supplies?

I am at a loss as to what to do with the paper scrapbooking supplies. I have tons......
Literally an entire store worth of product. My mom wants most of it and I have friends that could use the Cricut cartridges. But when and how, do you decide what goes and what stays. I am still in love with the feel of product and the fun. I may just have to box it up for a rainy day, and then remember the feel of paper.

Happy Father's Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did the customary dad calling since we live 3 hours away from him. I miss seeing him everyday, but we love our lives here. Dh has yet to call his dad, but says he will tonight.

Speaking of DH, he cleaned the garage yesterday.......omg......all of the empty boxes that were in there are gone....all of the shelves are totally clean and organized. You can see each item on the shelf and they are even grouped according to use. I thought I was the only neat freak in our house. Guess he is the closet one.

Have a great week....mine will be sad....a dear friend is leaving for 18 months in Iraq. Tomorrow is his going away party. Find some red, white, and blue for him. Prayers for Bob.

Long time no write

Work is slow, so I figured I would update the world on my normal, boring life. Summer is always ok at the hospital...no med students and clueless residents to order strange tests. We are just barely full staff, but now our receiving person is shipping out to Iraq for 18 months. Suprise- no more summer vacations.......... He leaves in 6 days, so we are done for. Prayers for him to come home safe. We will miss him.

I found a call list on Digishoptalk board, so I have been applying for design teams. I have made 2 and am gonna be a guest for 2 more. I still am partial to Heather (my first). Loving the girls there. I am guesting for Designs by Shannon and have just done my first two layouts...I hope she likes them. :) I have not started with Theres or Amy C yet..... I have one other application out there for a spot with Kris Myers, but doubt I will make it. I would love to but don't think I will be accepted. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Not much else on my plate now but Physical therapy. Which I hate.....I hate driving there...paying 30 for 30 minutes for someone to tortoure me. Almost done though....not really helping that much. But I am slacking the week and past weekend on exercises that I was assigned. I hope that I can get stronger so I can put off surgery for a few more months, atleast till next fall.

Unitl nexttime................................

I love my new neurosurgeon. Dr. Fowlett at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. He says I don't need spinal fusion and since my bones are stable I can go ahead with disc replacement surgery when I am ready. He didn't think that I needed to do it anytime soon, so I am gonna save up my pto at work for it. I hope that I can wait atleast a year to do it. I don't like the idea of surgery, but disc replacement will have me moble and going in 4 weeks.

Such a difference from Dr. Striebenger here in Kansas who said fusion with 4-6 months off.
I am glad that I went for a second opinion.

I need to focus now on my exercises in pt and taking my neruontin correctly. Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!


Such as life...but thankfully a good one.
