Keepers of the Flame

Women are the ones that keep the memories, take the photos, pass on the old wive's tales, continue treasured traditions, and impart feminine wisdom to future generations. This is precisely one of the reasons why I haven't blogged much in the past two weeks.

It's because of free stuff....

{huh?}

For years I have had a passion for paper scrapbooking, organizing all the photos and trying to keep up with 30+ years of photos....Nope, I'm not caught up....Is anyone ever caught up? When you  take hundreds of photos a month, no one is EVER caught up.

But I'm digressing again.....

Recently I've switched over to digital scrapbooking. It's quicker, easier and less messy, and actually you can spend the same amount or considerably less on products-and they're reusable!  I heard about a web site called artscow.com, which is a printing company. If you join, they give you free digital books! The only price you have to pay is the shipping, which is expensive because it's published in Hong Kong. I've had free credits for dozens of free 8 x 8 digital scrapbooks and the credits will be running out.....TODAY!

So I've been frantically creating digital scrapbook pages, scanning old paper scrapbooks and trying to download them before the deadline. I still have 5 free credits left and only one ready to download....

{sigh}

I hate missing out on the free stuff....but one can only do so much.
