Catching up

Oh, it has been a LONG time since I have posted anything in here!
Well, lets see.... what has happened since MARCH! LOL




Most recently, we had to put our cat (Gus) to sleep. I miss the little guy so much! He was almost 15 years old, he started serious weight loss over the past few months and the day we lost him, he was down to 6 lbs... (a year before that, he was more than twice that weight). It was one of the hardest things I have had to do, but I know it was the kind thing to do, he was suffering, and this was a peaceful way for him to go. I held him when the vet injected the medication, and he just went to sleep and was gone... no pain... very quick. He was a good cat, because our house is surrounded by woods, we get the occasional mouse, and he always got rid of them for us! He was very loving, and he even kissed the tears off my face when I said good-bye to him. We brought Gus home to live with us when he was about 8 weeks old, so he was a part of the family for a long time. I will miss him...


On to happier things... www.deco-pages.com is really starting to bloom. We have new designers coming on board, the forum and gallery are fully functioning, and people are starting to use them. We hope to have the chat installed this week! I am very excited about that! If you have not stopped by recently, I hope that you will!

Matthew is enjoying his summer. He will get to sing next month at the RiverFest in Niles. He spent the night at a friends house last night, and called me at 7am to come home because he had been up all night and was tired and wanted to come home and go to bed!

Jeff has been workin hard, doing the landscaping, piano tuning, side jobs, and now he is taking a computer class at a local college. I hope he learns how to fix computers so he can take care of mine! I did get a new computer this past month. It's great! I love it! FAST! Has enough RAM so I can work in my Adobe products! And it doesn't crash every 5 minutes!


I have been working on a new kit since Mother's Day... lol... how long ago is that now! There just are not enough hours in the day! This is a layout I did with it of my Mom and my brother Scott, it was taken a year or so before she passed away. I think it is a wonderful photo of her, she looked so happy. I hope to have this kit finished and available at www.deco-pages.com very soon.

Well, I guess that is about it for now. I will try to post in here more often... but I am not promising anything!
