On theft and how the world keeps turning anyhow - iPad version

So, I'm trying to get back into blogging after a rough ride these last few months - not the least of which was my house being broken into and my laptop (among other valuables) stolen. Now I must join the legions of tech savvy people and learn to do everything with nothing more than iPad. I've learned to do quite a lot with it, but my crafting has suffered because 1) I lost the majority of my digi stamps when my laptop was stolen and 2) I don't know how to print stamps that I did back up. Basically, this means that I'm a technologically challenged, but honest individual. There are worse things to be.

On a lighter note, I have been accepted to a PhD program in the humanities where I will finish my graduate education and become a demographer. It's pretty exciting. Sure, I'll be all kinds of old when I finally graduate, but I am a first generation college student and couldn't be more happy to take this next step in my life.

My pointer finger is tired!

Here is a picture of a smashbook (sp?) layout I'm working on.

And just to see how pictures end up - hopefully not all at the end of the post - another pic of the layout. It's a fold out, but not quite done yet. I want a sparkly red shoe, some stock photos do the show, and a pic of me, my sis, and mom at the show. It should turn out pretty cute.
