Yesterday, Winston and I were playing our new Paper Mario game for the Wii. We all chipped in for the $50 game. No one wanted to spend their entire $50 on a game that Mom wanted. Yes, I am a video game junkie. Anyway, we were stuck on Chapter 1-3 and decided to take a break. I was logging onto the computer to check to see if the Scrapbook Nook had announced the winners of round 2. They were selecting 10 people to move onto round 3. By my calculations I was tied for 11th place. I am about to click on the announcement when the phone rings.
The lady on the other end asked for me but mispronounced my name. "Great another sales call or survey. I corrected her and let her continue. Usually I say she's not here, figuring if they can not say my name it's not important. She introduced herself as Cecile from the new Scrapbook Store in Pooler, Scrapbook Studio. She proceeded to tell me that I had made the Design Team for the store. The Grand Opening is this Saturday, June 13. I can't wait to check out the store and all the new yummy product she has in stock. Check out her Blog here and the store website here.
And by the way, I did not move onto round three at the Scrapbook Nook. It was so weird to have such big announcements coming in at the same time.

Living With Multiple Sclerosis
Three years ago, my 13 year old daughter was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Contessa first showed symptoms at age three and doctors told us that maybe someday she would be diagnosed with MS. MS is a disease that effects the central nervous system. For some reason her body is attacking the mylien sheath that protects the nerve. When the nerve is damaged it cause problems such as vision problems, short term memory loss, and coordination. There are two types of MS, Contessa is diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS. This means she will go periods of feeling and looking well. Factors such as heat and stress will cause a relapse. Currently there is no cure for MS. We are using a daily injection called Copaxone that is to slow the progression of MS. Please take a few minutes to view the following clip to see how people with MS are often preceived as looking so good that they could not have a dibilitating disease. The Show Must Go On
