i have begun to have a love affair with today...
seriously...
those of you who are SISters over at Scrap In Style TV know that each day i start a thread called "today i will"...and it has been cool (& a lot of help organization wise) to have someplace where i can sit for a few minutes & create my plan for the day...lots of it is all that mundane house-wife-y stuff...the laundry, the bills, vacuuming, call this person, don't forget that, etc...its all that stuff of the everyday...yeah...not too exciting lots of times...but despite it's lack of luster, i've learned immensely from it...
today holds such promise & possibility...
today holds such hope...
today can be anything you want to create for it...
today can hold great power...
today can be the start of something big...
today can change your life...
so i'm thinking now you don't think my love affair is so wacky :)
take this quote for instance...
it is sure to help you change your mind about today & your power to use it:

This is the beginning of a new day.
You have been given this day to use as you will.You can waste it or use it for good.What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it.When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good.<----Amby Nic Montage
now go, take today by the reins & USE IT! maybe even create....TODAY! :)
load them up here by midnight on the 16th pretty please :) This weeks sponsor is Dixie Pieces! They have offered up their adorable May kit for our selected winner. Go check it out!

Love it. I read this quote before and even told my boys about it. It's also on my whiteboard at the office... maybe this is the moment to actually scrap it. Thanks for the inspiration!!

So this is my work for today ;)
