Announcement...BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

Well, the time has come for me to leave Scrapbook bytes. It's bittersweet. I am so totally excited to be moving to the new store....but I have been at SBB forever and it feels like home. I think it's going to take some time to adjust.

So.....if you guys are wondering where my new store will be.....I am moving to TWO PEAS! Woo hoo! I have been a fan of Two peas forever and a day. Never in a million years did I think that I would be a part of it. I am looking forward to this new adventure and hope that I don't totally bomb.

So, I hope that you all can be patient while I move my products to the new store. I hope my friends and customers will follow me there. I couldn't live without you.

I will be removing my products from SBB tomorrow night, so if you have any coupons that you haven't used yet, or have a product that you want you better grab it now! Some of my products will not be moving to Two peas!

AND the winners are------

Fancy Schmancy Giveaway

You all know I love giveaways! I couldn't just keep this one to myself! You have got to enter this, who wouldn't want this plate?
It gives me so many ideas!! I love inspiration!

*****I updated the link- The other one didn't work!*****

I'm alive..AND a GIVEAWAY!!!!!

Thank you to those that left those kind comments. I appreciate it. I love you all. You don't even know me, but I feel as if I have so many people that care about me. Thank you.

It's different here without Cody. I STILL see him in the corner of my eye. I STILL leave the closets open so that he can get in there and snuggle. It's going to take a while to get over that habit. Sigh


So, in an effort to get this blog back to FUN things.....
LET'S HAVE A GIVE AWAY!!!! YAY!!!!!

How about a $10.00 Gift certificate to Michelle Underwood designs at SBB? TWO LUCKY WINNERS!!!!!!!!

You get 5 CHANCES to win this giveaway! The rules are simple, but pay attention so you can maximize your chances! ;)

*FIRST ENTRY- Leave me a comment about anything. Something fun, a joke, tell me about a kit of mine that you would love to buy with the $10.00 gift certificate....tell me you love me (JK) Anything upbeat gets you 1 entry.

*SECOND ENTRY- If you follow my blog, or subscribe via email let me know and you get another entry. (LEAVE A SEPARATE POST FOR EACH ENTRY.)

*THIRD ENTRY- If you follow me on twitter, let me know...that gets you one more entry!!!!! You can tweet about this giveaway...that would rock! ;)

*FOURTH ENTRY & FIFTH- If you have my blog on your blog roll, you get 2 entries! YAY!!!!
(LEAVE A SEPARATE POST FOR EACH ENTRY.------Your comments will look like- You are on my blog roll #1....THEN LEAVE ANOTHER COMMENT and it will look like You are on my blog roll#2.)

This may seem complicated but I want to give people extra entries to win....and it is so hard to pick a random winner when all the entries are in one comment. It's easier to have a separate comment for each entry.

This time I will be choosing via a random generator.

Give away will end on SUNDAY 24th (after 8 pm)!!!

Pass the word.

Our cody cat is going to a better place tomorrow..

I won't draw this out...it makes me so sick to my stomach to think about it, but tomorrow I have to put our big kitty to sleep. He's 11 years old. He's huge, and he was the best cat we ever had.

He got outside last week and a Tom cat bit him in the neck. The wound got terribly infected and I took him in today and the vet lanced it, and gave him some antibiotics. They say we will probably have to come back in and have a tube put into the wound so it can drain better. He is in pain. He isn't our Cody bear. He is clearly in distress and I can't make him go through any more pain. We are suppose to take a cotton ball and massage his VERY SORE neck to get the infection to drain out. He is not having it, he is too old, it hurts too bad. On top of that he needs to have surgery to remove some teeth that are in really poor condition, he needs to have this done immediately after he heals from his neck wound (if he heals). He will have to be put under and they aren't sure he will survive the surgery.

I talked to the family and we agreed to go ahead and let him go to a better place. I know some of you may not agree with this, but it really is what we feel is best.

My son, Brian took it the hardest. He has cried all afternoon. He took a nap with Cody in our bed (Cody has pretty much just been laying there). I brushed him, and we all gave him love. Danny and I also laid down with him in the bed for a while, just soaking up some Cody love.

We will bury him at my Mom's house.
