Ok I’m trying to be a good blogger so here I am. I wanted to post sooner but I was lazy and didn’t. last night I had a rough time falling asleep. My mind was going a hundred miles a min. What was I thinking about you ask? Well let me tell you.
Scrapbooking…
Yes yes yes I know… Of all things in the world to think about I was thinking about that. But, it wasn’t just scrapbooking. I was thinking of way to get this business of mine off the ground. Yeah I know that right now with the economy the way it is probably isn’t the best time to but I’m tried of not helping out our family as far as income goes. I’ve had a hellish time trying to find work. With so many ppl out there also employed no one wants to hire a stay at home mom that’s been out of work for 2.5 yrs. So I’m trying to make money on something I’m good at.
So here are the steps that I’ve taken… I put together a website to show case my work and to give a place for ppl to get infor about me and what I can do. Urlifecreations.com…. Yes it’s a work in progress. Me being not so gifted in the world of web design did the best I could. Can I use some help yes LOTS. But I don’t have the money to pay someone to help me out. So if your looking at it and see some areas that can be improved PLEASE feel free to let me know! Its hard cause I’m on the other end. I don’t look at it as a customer would. I need that point of view so please feel free to give it to me.
I also put together a facebook and a myspace page together for the purpose of networking. I’ve been adding ppl like crazy and I thank you if your one of those ppl that have accepted.
I’ve told all my friends and family about all my pages and have asked them to pass along the word. I’m sure like many there all sick of me asking or talking about.
And now here I am blogging about it. What more can I do? Well that’s free or cheap? I’m running out of ideas and nothing seems to be working. The only clients that I’ve had are my mother-in-law and my wonderful neighbor Sam that hires me to make every card that she needs. Other then that nothing. At this point I want to give up! I know its not a lack of talent or drive. At this point its more a lack of buyers! I don’t want to give up on my dream I really don’t but it seems hopeless! I’m not trying to toot my own horn but I do make some cool stuff! I personal think I have skills. But what is a girl to do????

New blog
Ok people I give up. Yes I'm bad! I got one day into my 60 day body challenge and quite. I wouldn't say its from being lazy I would say its more the lack of motivation. So I'm changing this blog to ME. Its going to be about my life, my family, my dreams, and my journey throw this thing we call life. so here's the first post.
My name is Michelle. I’m currently a stay at home mom to two PERFECT little boys and a wife of 3 years to Jason. Yes I have my hands full! They keep me running around. Its more far to say that I have 3 little boys rather then 2. Jason is just a kid at heart. Which is the reason I fell in love with him in the first place. But at times it drives me crazy.
Ayden my oldest at 2 is more then one person can handle. He has so much life in him. He just never stops. But, considering where we've been with him I wouldn't change anything about him. Ayden you see was born with something called Congenital heart block. For more information go here

Last Sept we where face with having to go throw surgery to have a pacemaker put in. Seeing my baby go through that was the hardest thing I have ever done. I wouldn't wish what we went through on my worse enemy. Just writing about it is bring me to tires. Painful for a parent to see their child in so much pain! Ah. But I'm GLAD to say that hes doing great. Looking at him you wouldn't even know there was anything wrong with him. He's imperfectly PERFECT!
Then you have my youngest Dominic (1 yr). He was the totally opposite of his brother as a baby. Ayden was colic to the point I thought he was going to be an only child. Lets just say it was HARD with Ayden. Dominic on the other hand was the perfect little baby. Slept all the time ate well growing normally. Just as easy as can be. He was a mothers dream baby. It all my babies where like him I could easily have 3 more (which Jason wants). But now that hes a little older hes becoming more of a hand full. It doesn't help that Ayden loves to show him all the bad things to do. Its to cute to see them playing together. Well I should say TRYING to play with each other. Ayden is still a little to rough. A day before Dominic's 1st birthday he started crawling which was fun. Now hes everywhere. Now at 13 months he pulling him self up on everything. The other day (yesterday in fact) we where at Travis & Jenna's house (our neighbors) he just decided that he wanted to crawl up the stairs for the first time. Which put me in amazement since we both have the SAME floor plan. For some reason he thought it was best to do it at their house and not here. It was to cute.
On to me. I'm your average 28 yr old woman. I love my family and the little firends that I have. Everyone one in my life i hold dear to. In the last 5 years my world have been flipped upside down in more ways then I would have liked. Some things were great while others I really didn't care for. Cleaned up a lot of the baggage in my life (about time) and the ppl still in my life I choice to keep cause I love them and I hope they choice to continue to remain a part of my life for years to come. I’ve been scrapbooking for about 10 years now and I have to say that I LOVE it. Some would say that I might be a little obsessed. I like to think I’m just passionate about the hobby. Its been a dream of mine to have my own business so here I am trying to do just that. Friends come over and walking into my office and tell me I could open a store right out of my own house. I don’t have that much… Do I? I have a old friend to think for getting me hooked on this wonderful hobby. Thank you Danielle. Lets see what else would you want to know about me. I’m just really a simple girl trying to reach her dreams really. So join me on my road to reaching my dream of having my own scrapbooking based business . This should be interesting…
