being lazy, scrapping, hanging out with Mom, my two little words for 2008

My day started out sleeping on the couch clutching my fat cat Jasper. He is the world's best "stuffed animal". I did some scrapping and was pretty lazy before going out with my Mom for the afternoon. We had lunch at the Back Burner to Go which happens to have one of my absolute favorite soups - Pumpkin Mushroom - oh my is it yummy. After that we headed to Christiana Mall, where Mom picked me up some goodies: a new Hello Kitty calendar for 2008 and a box of Yankee Candle Potpourri - Mandarin Orange. I found the cutest frame at Pottery Barn in the "As Is" section for just $7. It looks just like this 4x6 one, except it says "Live Fully", which I thought was a really wonderful message.

Now to pick out the perfect picture!

Speaking of thinking about messages, one of the scrapbooker's blogs that I read regularly is Ali Edwards. She mentioned recently in this post that she had chosen her one little word for the year. The point of the one little word concept is to focus yourself with what you'd like to accomplish in the new year by choosing one word. I like the idea of selecting one little word to give myself focus, but since I talk a lot, I suppose it makes since that I'm finding it difficult to select "one" word. So when I was thinking about choosing my one word, and I saw the fame I mentioned above in Pottery Barn this afternoon, it hit me - these are going to be my "two little words" for this year - "Live Fully".

I have to do some more thinking about what this means to me - maybe I'll share it in the form of a layout? Off to make dinner.
