a challenge.
part 1 of the challenge.
grab a scrap of paper and something to write with...
jot down the FIRST person (friend/family/someone you know) that comes to mind for the following 3 prompts.
1. someone that doesn't have email
2. someone that you haven't seen (in person) in a very long time
3. that constant someone in your life. the person that is there for you all the time, for whatever reason (whether in real life, or via phone/email... )
...you'll have to keep on reading for part 2 of the challenge :)
SECOND.
You may never believe this.
I scrapped this weekend!!!!
It was so much fun. I always forget how much I enjoy this craft until I do it again :)
I got 6 pages done in a little under 6 hours! So, my journaling is not so great, er... not even there… lol… sorry erin! But I got 6 pages done!! I’m almost to the end of my stack of pictures I printed a loooong time ago, so I’ll be able to print out new (Nov 2007... ha!) ones to scrap!!
Next month I’m going to a weekend (yay!!!) crop fundraiser for Lilly’s preschool and I am VERY excited now that I have a little bit of the scrapbook fever back. Just think how much I’ll get done then :) Or not. I may be talking and eating too.
This year, I vowed to let myself scrap/go to a crop once a month this year. This will be so good for me.
most of these very fun (and very new to me) papers are from this awesome lady. she sent me a HUGE priority box filled with all kinds of scrapping goodies. let's just say it was like opening Hobby Lobby in a box :)
THIRD.
part 2 of the challenge.
Those 3 people you wrote down on that scratch paper?
I challenge you to mail them a note. A card. A letter.
The old fashioned way.
You know, with your own handwriting, some sort of paper, an envelope and a 42 cent stamp.
The kind of mail that you put in a real mailbox :)
(...and if #3 resides with you... send them a letter to their office building, or stick it in with the rest of your mail!)
(... and no one is stopping you if you have a few more people that you'd like to add to your list)
Have a great week everyone :)

Oo, good challenge. I'll have to think to come up with someone that I know that doesn't do email. I'm sure there is someone out there. And everyone loves getting happy mail. :)
