This is Right Up My Alley!


This week's assignment at Bitten by the Bug was to use the pencil cut on the Community Cartridge. I decided since I AM a teacher, that I would go a traditional route. So I pulled out my school themed papers and went to town! Even the ribbon is school related! As teachers we tend to send notes home all the time, so this will be perfect to add to my stash at school!
Check out what the other gals did at BBTB! Their creations are fabulous!!!
***** Hey, remember a few weeks ago, I had gotten my van back from the body shop? (I had been rear ended prior to that) Wellllllllll..............the saga continues! The paint on my brand new rear bumper is bubbling and peeling. Bare metal is showing. I called the body shop today and the guy was like, "Uhhh, geeeee, I don't really know how that would happen......were in another accident or something?" Um........NO! So now, I am trying to arrange ANOTHER rental van, so I can get this van in AGAIN! Can you say, " I HATE MY VAN!!!!!!" Ugh! ok, ok, ok.....enough venting.......I'm done. Thanks for letting me bend your ear! : )))))

What kind of van do you have? We got an awesome rear-entry Chrysler Town & Country for our daughter from Freedom Motors out of Michigan (we live in Florida). We were rear-ended too but it was fixed up good as new.
