I Disappeared Again huh? Have Freebes though

I am such a bad blogger! I get on the computer and start fooling around, visit blogs...thinking I should update mine, check out my fave sites... thinking I should update my blog, do some layouts...thinking I should update my blog, chat with friends...thinking I should................you get the picture. But I do have a couple of freebies for you!!

Not too much has been happening around me, nice and quiet which I like, had enough drama and not in any hurry for any more. Although when dealing with certain situations it's likely to crop up.

B~man is in hockey playoffs right now, they finished the preliminary round with a 4-1 record and the top 4 teams advance to the semi final round. His team should be in with the top 4 and if they go to a goals for/goals against they'll still be in good shape as they posted three shutouts. Hard part is we have to wait 2 weeks before playing again.

Scrapping News--lots to say and preview and link you up to some freebies too!!

Bren Boone is back at the Orchard!!! Yep she's back and this time as an exclusive Orchard Girl. I love her designs and it just adds another amazing designer to my favourite place.

Shauna aka Pineapple Plantation Designs has released a CU grab bag full of wonderful goodies which I can attest to as I bought it, lol. I just love her overlays.

Kami has a cute collab called Firefly Lane with Amanda Heimann. It's so fun and perfect for many layouts. I haven't grabbed that one yet but it will be in my cart very soon, lol.
Franziska has released a gorgeous kit with that vintage feel and it's appropriately named, Vintage Flowers, I just love the feel to this kit.Freebies for you.....here's a linked list to some of my Orchard Girls who are giving away freebies right now plus I even have two of my own.

Where oh Where Have I Been?

Well so much for being more diligent at maintaining my blog! It's been sitting here half finished waiting to take Christmas down, and finally I got to it.
*Note to self--do not do a theme again.
Not much happening in real life..........well that would be a bit of a fib as I have had some excitement but not the good kind and we'll just leave it there. Let's just say it involves a certain someone who I no longer live with.
B~man is in the midst of playoffs for hockey and they are doing really well. They won the first game 5-0, second game was 5-0, third game was 2-0 and yesterday was 2-1. B~man is doing well in the scoring department also, with 5 goals, 4 assists and I of course have to mention this for him, 1 penalty.
All Things Scrappy........
I'm hoping to get a couple of templates finished and I may try my hand at some Valentine's Cards. That is if there is anyone out there who still comes to my blog (think there were 2 of you and I am grateful for you, lol).

Scrap Orchard is having an awesome sale from February 8th-14th..........I'm talking 30% off
*except Grab Bags and CU items.
It is also Sunny Sunday over at Sunshine Studio Scraps where you can get your hands on some fine designs for an awesome price!
I'm off to hopefully get something done.........................as in laundrey etc.
