NOTES FROM THE HOLLER

I have long been a fan of Captivated Visions, and her talented creative team, the Captivating Sistas.  I look through her gallery at Scrapbook Graphics and wish I could be  so creative in my scrapbooking.  Lets face it, I am not but still I am very much inspired by those girls!  I purchased the "Life Is Like A Rodeo" kit by Captivated Visions   from Scrapbook Graphics and I so love working with it! I used the layout Hang In There by Patti as my inspiration for the following page. The additional elements are from The Sun of Africa mini kit from My Memories.com Darius Rucker took the lyrics from an old Bob Dylan song which was the theme from the 1973 movie Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid, and has made a country hit.  My husband and grandson love this song, and when Isaac visited us this weekend, he sat at Pap's computer loving on Teddy, and watching Darius' video over and over, singing right along with it.   The Studio Captivated Visio...

It seems like all I do on my blog is apologize for not being loyal to it but let's face it, there is not a single person in the world who loses sleep over my lack of commitment here.  Truth is, I get a little discouraged over that very fact so I stay away.  However, this blog was started by me, for me.  I thought my family may enjoy it but I have come to terms with the fact that to my family I am this crazy old lady they deal with only when they have to, and most of them could care less about my scrapbook pages.  Yes, I am having a bit of a pity party here, aren't I?  So get over it, Granny!!!  I really am trying... I thought about giving my blog completely up, then I thought I would completely change it and begin completely fresh with a new blog but I don't really deal well with change, as those who know me can affirm. This blog has served me well and faithfully stands by, ready,  whenever I need it, so I think I will hang on to it a little longer....
