Project Life – Week 12

27 Tuesday Mar 2012

Hi Everyone,

I will be sharing this post at The Mom Creative – Project Life Tuesday

Once again I thought that I wouldn’t have much to document this week, however:

A tornado struck our town
Huge amounts of rain
A State election and new Premier
A health scare and some medical tests

I have been really busy (and worried) this week so did not get a chance to do much embellishing or journaling onto the photos. I am just pleased that the week is finished (in more ways than one).

Left side:

Right side:

The inserts:

This is a “Design A” page protector trimmed down to fit 3 photos.

This is a news article I took from the internet. I cut and paste until it fit on 2 sheets and then popped it into an A4 page protector.

I journaled onto a tag that was included in a parcel I got this week.

I’m looking forward to a quieter (and less stressful) week this week.

Thanks for looking.

Sharon.

Hi Sharon – what a hectic and stressful week you have had! Firstly, I want to say that I’m glad that you got the all clear from your health scare.
As always, your pages are great. I love how you manage to include big picture/political/local news – I must try to do more of that and give context to my pages.
That photo of Paige with your glasses on is so adorable!

  Thanks Jules – a health scare is worrying but I think it is worse when you are a single parent, BUT I have got the all clear so it is onwards from here.
  
  Thanks for looking. 🙂

  Thanks for looking! We are all fine – a tornado is really unusual for us, we usually get big Cyclones/Hurricanes here.

Isn’t it funny how that works – just when we think we have nothing to archive, we wind up with all sorts of things. Love your pages.

  Thanks for looking Nat, I don’t know how I missed these comments from last week.
  
  I was exhausted after working a few nightshifts – nothing was going to wake me apparently 😉

Hi Sharon, great pages, sorry to hear your craft shop has closed, dont yay hate that, l suppose internet shopping and high overheads are taking over the world, theres nothing better than browsing in a real show, great to hear that you are ok with your health

  I am sad about the shop closing. It actually belonged to one of my good friends and she decided to close to move on to bigger and better things.
