My Goodies arrived!

Yesterday my business kit from Creative Memories arrived and am so excited :) TONS of fun stuff to help jump start my new business. :)

Tonight (or first thing in the morning.... haven't decided yet) Adam and I are heading up to Eagle Rock to see Mom and Dad for Dad's birthday (which is Sunday). I never know what to get him..... If he needs something he usually just goes out and buys it himself which makes it very hard to purchase stuff for him.

For instance - I believe it was for christmas last year, Mom had said he wanted a gas powered leave blower for up at Eagle Rock. So I said PERFECT, make sure he doesn't buy it and Adam and I will get it for him for Christmas. A week or so goes by, talking to my mom on the phone "oh yeah, Dad just bought a leave blower....." I was so angry at him..... argh.... I don't even remember what we actually got him but it kinda ruined the moment......


So I leave you with some pics of Koda.... because I can :)

Creative Memories

The other day I was not a very good mood. Being home has been great but I have been having cabin fever.... BIG TIME. So I politely vented to Adam that I needed to do something. Now this fall I will still be teaching Marching Band, and then I am also going to be a substitute teacher at the same HS I teach at..... but I knew I needed something else.

I have become a Creative Memories Consultant. Creative Memories is dedicated to preserving people’s stories in a way that brings them together to socialize, have fun and celebrate their memories by putting together scrapbooks and help organize your photo collection.

Creative Memories includes Traditional ScrapBooking, ie: printing out pictures and using them in a layout (which I have been doing for a few years now) and had launched a new Digital Scrapbooking division.
Since this is something that I absolutely LOVE doing, why not make a career out of it! Granted I just became a consultant last week, but am diving head first into the whole experience.

What's great about the digital scrapbooking is that it is done all on your computer, you can upload photos right into the software (not done over an internet connection, order is done that way though) and edit, crop, and make a long lasting memories in a digital format. This if similiar to what Snapfish and Shutterfly has been doing, but I feel (and not because I am consultant now) that this software is even better.

There are two softwares used in helping assist your digital craving:
Memory Manager and Storybook Creator.

Memory Manager always you to organize your photos via uploading from you camera, or a file. I don't know about you but I can never remember what is in all my picture files on my computer. Memory Manager allows you to place files in multiple files so you can cross-reference by category as well as break it down my year, month and even day.

So, here's my sale pitch! if you are interested in any of the products or services that is provided by Creative Memories, then please contact me! I know that some of you that read this do have tons of photos you take, and I think I can be a helpful with creating lasting memories!

Other news, Koda graduated obedience class on Saturday! So proud of her and she is going to be a great dog!





So I leave you with that, and am so excited to start this new journey!

Quickie....

I plan do to a big post today.... just planning it out.... new things are happening at the Nemeth Household!!

(was that suspenseful enough ;))

Rain Rain Go Away

I think this has been the coldest June in a while.... I mean I know I live in the mountians but it's even cold down in civilization!

Been working a lot of dance schools lately - good money for 3 days of work. Once June is over though its slows down.....

I have an interview wednesday at Bain & Co as a receptionist (in NYC) - it is a maternity leave position full-time for 4 months. Would start July 15th and go through October. My only concern is marching band starts up in Sept.... I am not willing to give that up, so I am going to be upfront and let them know about this. I would have to leave the city no later than 1pm, rehearsal starts at 3:15p.... it would be twice a week.... not sure they will be up for it, but we shall see.

Since I am going to be in the city that day, I am going to have lunch with some of my old co-workers from AXA. Should be nice, now that I have been gone for a little while I am hoping that I won't be as bitter, but my feelings are still not 100% normal about my losing my job....

Other than that, Adam heads up to Santa's Village Theme Park in New Hampshire to work on some video stuff. He leaves tomorrow and is back on Wednesday. Then he should be done for the season, except for a few quick "weekenders" up to CT that I am going on.

Time to do a dancing school recital! Whoopie!

Because it's raining, I leave you with some nice sunny pictures of NYC I took a few years ago....
