30

Ok, I think I just threw-up a litle! 30?! WTH? Where have the last 12 or so years gone? I have been dreading today since last year's birthday. People keep saying,
"30 is the new 20.", "Wait until you're 40.", and lots of other comments like these. Well, you know what? I'm 30, and I hate it!! I woke up miserable, and as the day goes on I feel worse. In fact, I'm trying not to cry right now! Urghhhh...maybe it's just a phase, and I'll get over it? Right now, I don't think so. Growing up sucks ass in so many ways...lol. Laura Jean did make me smile yesterday, though, with my awesome birthday presents.



Taylor made me a card. Traven brought me an ice cold Coke from Summer Leadership. My mother sent Matt and I a gift card for Outback. My baby brother called me from Iraq. I got lots of well wishes! I am very grateful! Really, I am. I'm just too miserable to show it much.


Anywho, as I have mentioned before, I am in the Treasured Hunt '08 over at Treasured Scrapbooking. So, our first challenge was to create a one page LO using felt, scallops, only 1 photo, and journaling that had to start with "Today I". We can't post our creations anywhere but there and our blog until the competition is over or until we get the boot. (whichever comes first) So, here's what I did....





Plain and simple. I took the picture of myself this morning. I hate it, but it's me. Hopefully it will be good enough to get me to the next round. :0)
