I created a new blog for just my scrapbooking progress. It's called Mindless Scrap. You can find it here: http://ping.fm/17ruu

http://ping.fm/p/98Bwf - I'm trying out a new hobby. I'm playing around with photo editing software, to learn how to create siggys. I have been dying to learn this, and now I've joined some tutorial groups in hopes of figuring this stuff out.

My first tutorial was to learn how to make a very basic siggy. It was fun to play with. Now, I was just playing with the stuff built into the program - nothing fancy. But it was fun! And I came up with something that I didn't think was hideous.

The software is already getting a little less scary. Maybe I'll be able to get this figured out one of these days. But for now, baby steps.

DH is in his car, and confirmed the website reading. Car thermometer reads -23 degrees F. brrrrrrr!

Ah, correction: That was a nearby city. Here it is a balmy -23 degrees F.

Omg. The temperature is -32 degrees F, according to my weatherbug. That's not windchill, that's actual temperature. Enough already!

Woohoo! DS got an A on his school project: build a car. His rolled the furthest, and he gets a special award (candy) and his pic taken. :)
