Shop Remember When...

Kicking and Screaming/Thank you Frank

So, in less than an hour it will be 2009. Wow. Another year, full of possibilities and promise. Not sure when I was this happy to see another year come, but yet still sad.

2008 had its problems (economy, DH's hospitalization), but yet it had its high points: my first job in nearly 10 years, and being selected for Remember When's First Design Team.

It's the latter that has me kicking and screaming. As many know, I only tried out because Frank insisted everyone do so. I never thought I would make it. Even now, when the dies for Dec & Jan are on my desk, I still cannot believe that my designs are good enough to represent SRW. Frank's faith in my ability to not embarrass Sherri or himself has been a great boon to my self-esteem. I strive to do my best, hopefully showing off the dies in a way no one else has thought of.

And now, our terms are days from ending. We will no longer be privy to the secrets - if only for a few days- and the logos will be removed from our siggies, and I will no longer have an excuse to go to SRW every month to make sure my projects are safely delivered.

Soon, a new team will proudly represent SWR, showcasing creations that inspire. I wish them the best.

Yes, I will try out again, cognizant that others need their chance.

However, I go into 2009 kicking and screaming because I am really going to miss the monthly challenges! I don't want to give up my spot, even if I am not sure I deserve it, but I really loved it.

Happy New Year and thanks, Frank!

It is finally Christmas Eve!! Willy and I have drank our hot chocolate and sat by the tree. We are even tracking Santa on the Internet. Santa will be in North Texas soon. Willy and I are going to go to church service and then to bed to wait for Santa to come to RW. But before I go I wanted to wish ya'll a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Be safe and enjoy your time with your loved ones.

Yours truly,

Remi

CAN YOU SMELL IT!!

Christmas is coming!! I am so exited! I have been extra good and Willy and I are going to go to Church on Christmas Eve. Down town is all decorated and everyone is in a great mood.  Love this time of the year with all good will.

 

And Candy!

WHAT IS GOING ON!!??

 

Yesterday it was almost 80. I had on my two-piece bathing suit laying outside with my back legs propped on my no tires Big Wheel!

Today it was so COLD  I had to bust out the leg warmers! The worst part was, I could only find three that were mates. And I have no Idea were the 4th went or were the odd ball came from.

I thought I was going to freeze to death. Willy says I was being overly dramatic. I don't think so. There was ice hanging from my nose!

 

Yours truly,

Remi

The surprise was a BIG HIT! I am so excited. The font and the shapes are fabulous!! I hope there are more surprises in the future. I have looked at the dies and Go Kreate did an excellent job. I can not wait to see a l/o of the new shapes.

Yours truly, Remi

Have you ever have one of those days when all you want to do is lay on the floor and giggle while you BFF Willy is rubbing you tummy? Today was that day! I was SO excited when the SURPRISE came in. It was one of the most exciting packages we have received!! I had been riding around in Tracy's purse for a while and I did not think anything would top that!

Yours truly,

Remi

P.S. Still no tires! : (

P.S.S Had you sent me $5.00 you would already know what the suprise is.  : ) (BTW I only take cash)

Still I have no tires for my Big Wheels!! I just know they are laying in a ditch somewhere all mangled CSI could not identify them.

URG!!

So yesterdayWilly and I went to church and we had to take Willy's Tonka Truck. That is not the smoothest ride I have ever been in. And small on the inside! However it got us from point A to point B and back.

Today was quite busy. I did think I was going to have to start a street fight with some old grouchy woman. I did not know what her problem was, but man!! If she was an animal someone would have had to have her put to "sleep". Ido not even think she was a scrap booker. I am glad she was not at the store. I did not want Dorothy and Jason to see me act like A GANGSTA!!  Usually I am a lover and not a fighter. But today I was feeling spunky!

 

CHRISTMAS IS A COMIN'!!  I did not think it was ever going to get here and now it is so close it is total craziness!! I have been sure to be extra good these last few months (excluding today!) just to be on the safe side.

 

Yours truly,

Remi
