August is Here, and so am I!

Sorry that I’ve been MIA for a couple of days!  Things got a little crazy, but that’s no excuse… pwease forgive me?  I had a “little” bit of homework to do… silly college and my oldest son had a party to get to!  Then yesterday my kids all had places to be, at the same time, and they all needed to be picked up at the same time too!  It all worked out though, everyone got where they needed to go, on time even, and all was well with the world!  I have to say that for the past two days every time I’ve gone somewhere there has been some sort of construction hindering my progress… I wonder if God is trying to tell me to stay home?

Anyway, August 1st came and with it Stampin’ Up!® has so much going on and I’m so excited I don’t know where to begin!

First, MDS (My Digital Studio) 2 is here!
