Before my first individual therapy session today, heh.

a blog rant about how the neighborhood children are making me crazy, and it's all their parents' fault.

Mostly air travel and pictures of the inside of the boat. And barnacle penises. (Penii?)

This month, Heritage Makers is running a Christmas In July special. Most of our products are 'buy 3, get the 4th free'. This is the perfect time to get a jump start on holiday gifts AND holiday cards for those folks on your Christmas list!

Here are some ideas for holiday gifts:

1) Create custom storybooks for all those folks on your list - or create one fantastic family storybook and give a copy to everyone in the family!

2) Make a Favorite Family Holiday Recipes cookbook and give it to everyone for the holiday season.

3) Make personalized day planners or calendars for 2010 and give them as gifts.

4) Use Heritage Makers for all your holiday cards this year! Did you know that Heritage Makers will not only allow you to design your own personalized cards; they will also MAIL those cards directly to the recipients for you? You can send your beautiful, heartfelt cards directly from the comfort of your computer! Just import everyone's information into your Heritage Makers address book and send. No more addressing 100's of envelopes...no more stamps...no more long lines at the post office.

This month, Heritage Makers makes it easy and affordable to do all of these things, and more. Don't miss this great special! Talk to me for additional details.

Ad flier is here: http://www.heritagemakers.com/go/christmasJuly2009/
My website is: http://www.scrapyourbooks.com for more information on Heritage Makers.

If you aren't familiar with Heritage Makers yet, you should be! We are a digital storybooking (think scrapbooking online) company that will help you turn your treasured memories into beautiful books, cards, posters, etc to last a lifetime.

This coming Wednesday, July 1st at 6:30PM, I will be holding a FREE beginner's workshop at my mother's house in Lansing, IL. I will do a basic demonstration of the online Studio and answer any questions you may have about using it.

If you've got some Heritage Makers credits sitting on your account and you aren't sure how to get started, this is the perfect event for you!

Likewise, if you are thinking about getting into storybooking but are feeling a little overwhelmed, this is perfect for you!

And if you've been doing it for a while but want to come to share some tips and ideas with the other attendees, this is perfect for you!

Feel free to bring a laptop if you'd like to work on your projects.

Please send me an email if you are interested in attending and I will supply you with the address.

My beautiful daughter in the rain yesterday :)

So if you're curious as to which of my favorite tchotckes I shared, I also posted them in my Million Dream Mom blog: http://milliondreammom.blogspot.com/2009/05/tchotcke-day.html

However, it appears to have cut off a number of the pictures. I don't have time right now to look at the formatting but if anyone has experience formatting blogger blogs to show the full pic when you post it, please share your tips with me :)
