Grand Canyon Layout


I did this digital layout in the car while on vacation. It was fun practicing on my laptop. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out.

10 Things I Can’t Do Anymore

Play School with my little brothers and dolls.

Sit on the floor cutting cutting out clothes patterns from beautiful fabrics (I'm just not that limber anymore...lol)

Sew with my Mom.

Carry my books home from school.

Go shopping on Saturdays with my high school friends Renee and Cathy.

Remember what I ate for lunch yesterday.

Wear high heels.

Sleep late at my leisure on the weekends.

Talk to my grandmother while eating good home cooking in her kitchen.

Go home and visit all day on Sunday.

I’m glad I made this little list. It brought back a few good memories. I think I need to scrapbook them because there are some fairly interesting stories in this list. Maybe, someday, I’ll tell you one or two.
See ya, Me

I should have never ...

I should have never let someone make me feel less important than they are.

I should have never promised to do something I was too busy to do because I was afraid to hurt the requestor’s feelings.

I should have never worn new sandals on the first day of my vacation.

I should have never believed that women can’t be successful in business.

I should have never allowed anyone to make me feel that my advocacy for my children was worthless and not meaningful.

I should have never pushed the garage door opener closed before I was completely in the garage.

I should have never let someone make me feel less important than they are.

I should have never been afraid to admit I was wrong.

I should have never stayed up all night working when I had an appointment the next morning.

I should have never responded quickly to an email that made me feel bad.

I should have never purchased the shirt that felt a little snug because I believed I would be thinner shortly.

I should have never promised to do something I was too busy to do because I was afraid to hurt the requestor’s feelings.

I should have never written this list...

P.S. I just said that bit about not writing this list because it rounded things up nicely. I actually think it is good to reflect on your life occasionally. One reason to study history is to attempt to not repeat past mistakes.
