Happy New Year!

Greetings everyone! I hope your New Year's was a good one. I rang in the new year with a killer migraine last night. I wish I knew what prompted a migraine b/c I would certainly stay away from it. I ended up taking an Imitrex, and boy did it do a number on me! I was up for most of the night. I'm hoping tonight will be much more pleasant.

I've been a busy bee working on some LOs and cards. I made this card for a challenge over on the All Moments Remembered Message Board impromptu crop:

I created this next LO for a challenge over on the CKMB after-Christmas crop.


Nothing is glued down just yet, but you get the idea. I'm so excited to be starting my wedding scrapbook. I hope Mr. Mojo sticks around!

One last little thing. I visit A LOT of blogs. It takes me at least an hour and a half to go through all of them, but I love it!! I want to make sure that I have YOUR blog listed here. If I don't, please leave me a comment and I will add it. I visit so many that it's hard to keep track of, and I wouldn't want to exclude anyone. Thanks!

My Mom and I get "surprise" migraines too. If I get enough warning that one is coming on (I get lucky that way sometimes) a simple peppermint candy can sometimes help it. They also work great on sinus headaches. All the meds that are made specifically for migraines tend to make us "wired" too. I'm sorry you had to ring in the new year that way.

Love the card and the page, btw. Especially the photo of the dog.

I heard there may be another crop at CK this weekend. Have you heard anything?

Happy New Year! I am on the AMR board too! I found out about the crop too late on NYE to participate but that won't stop me from doing things later on :)

Love the LO. I am going to work on updating my crafing blog today - I see lots of pics coming my way..LOL

I love visiting blogs too. I like to visit a lot of them, and try to do it a few times a week..I learn so much, not just about people, but about things....I cannot believe you have not broken out the grungeboard...lol, It came out of the box immediately when I got it from AMR. I love it...it smells kinda funny but there are so many fun things to do with it. I did another lo yesterday that I will post showing you some.

Thanks for the compliments on the pics...like most scrapbookers, I love my camera.

If Imitrex does a number on you, you might ask you dr. to try Maxalt if you haven't already...I get a migraine, take one or two and I am up and at em in about 2 hours....totally over it.

Anyway, email me if you have questions...dirtbikinmom@hotmail.com Hope you are feeling better.

Very pretty. Sorry about your migraine. They run in my dh's family so I'm around it alot and I can sympathize. You're lucky to be starting your wedding album NOW...when the "IN" thing isn't cutting up your pics with funky edged scissors. But I digress...hee hee.
Have a great day.

I understand about the migraine, my daughter had severe migraines and used imitrex until we found that she had a heart defect.She has had surgery and No more migraines. I know how bad they can be!
Glad you are better! Hope you have a Great 2008 ! Thanks for a very interesting blog !

Hi, Sam! Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well over New Years. What a bummer! I wanted to tell you that I love your LO's. I really like the colors in your wedding LO - I don't know how long you have been married, but you can't be too far behind in scrapping them - from your pictures, they look pretty recent! Oh - and I loved the LO of your dog - I love getting pictures like that - sometimes I swear they are humans!

Take care! Steph
