One Success

Random question before I start into what my post is meant to be about - does anyone else still use the little rhyme to spell success (S-U-C-C-E-S-S that's the way we spell success)? Ok maybe it is just me.

So I think I have mentioned before that my house has a way of eating electronics; the dvd's and cd's. If I haven't then I am certain that blogger has eaten the posts that I have typed about this. Anyhow, I have recently decided to add yet another project to the list of things I want to do.

List is as follows: write my book, refinish my kitchen table and bedroom dresser, grow a garden (other than the toys that seem to be popping up everywhere in my house), exercise, and of course the being a wife and mom stuff too.

My new desire is to learn how to use Adobe Creative Suite much better so I can do my digital scrapbooking this way. Unfortunately, once I made this decision and went searching for the cd tutorial that came with my software I had no idea what happened to the CD. I've been looking for weeks. Finally, I had decided that it was pointless and chalked it up to be missing with my Smallville and Lois and Clark dvd's (yes I am a HUGE Superman fan and yes my husband is Clark Kent/Superman - at least he is to me.) Well I checked out some books from the library to read and study along with my books on writing a book.

Note to self: If you read every how-to-book, you don't do the things you are trying to learn how to do.

Anyhow, I was working on the cleaning and organizing my house, part of my to do list, and I found my tutorial. So now I have a ton of materials to help me learn. Hopefully, I will be designing things in no time. I'm really excited. I just have about 5 books to get through to learn with first. :D But the biggest success was winning against the electronic eating goblins and getting my cd back.
