Hot Tub here I come!!

Another work-week gone by already. Where does the time go?

Have you ever noticed how, when we are kids-we just cannot wait to get older! And then when we finally do-WE WANT IT TO SLOW DOWN a little! LOL

My job is pretty stressful. I'm a receptionist at a Veterinary Hospital and an affiliate clinic about 15 minutes away, along with doing the Accounts Receivable for both. Somedays you wonder how much more you can take. It's not all cute puppies and kittens...but it is one of things I have a passion for: Dealing with people and animals, trying to make things better and showing compassion along with sensibility. I work 4 10's a week...today is my 'Friday', and thank Goodness! LOL Like I said, sometimes it gets to you.

Ashley had her Formal last weekend, I did a page for her...and of course, I will do more! I just thought I'd share it with you. I can't believe she will be graduating from High School in a little over a month. Like I said several times already-time flies.

When I think of how time flies by like that, I always think about the things I never want to forget. This is a 'special year' for me, Willie will be 20, Ashley graduates and will be 18 and Chelsea will be 15...and here I thought my 20th Class Reunion would be a big deal! LOL Oh, and today is Abba Zabba's 1st birthday!!

So, like the heading says-I'm headed to the hot tub to chill and clear the head. Hope the weather stays gorgeously sunny for me on my days off...I'm itching to play in the dirt and get some sun! Have a wonderful weekend and I'll be back soon. I'll share some freebies with ya...xo

Digital scrapping share:

Yep, that is me!
Back in the day-this is my Dad and my sister Tonya and I in 1979. We were at our Great Grandparents house in Dorris, Ca. Probably visiting for some time in the summer, which we usually did. My mom sent this photo to me last week, I don't remember ever seeing it. There are not many pictures that I can recall like this-of my sister, myself and our Dad. I loved going to visit them and looked forward to it every time. Sure, it got to be pretty boring when I got older-teenagers have their own agendas in life, LOL.
Remember those carefree days of youth? Sometimes I miss them. I even miss the carefree days of my own kids' youth! How cute they were running around, playing, even sleeping...and the laughter. I love childrens laughter.
Moments like these are why I am a Scrapbooker, and even more so a Picturaholic. To capture those moments in time we can never get back. The ones we hope to remember, but so often fade away into the backs of our minds due to LIFE.
Cherish every moment, every smile and every sound of childrens laughter...time passes quicker than we all realize and then those moments are gone.
Yeah-I'm a sentimental sap!! LOL

For those of you who are into digital scrapping, I have some links for some freebies here for you. (I have to share my addiction!) Hope you all enjoy:
