Hey everyone!
Well the last few days haven't gone to plan, life took over. Or to be more exact my conditions took over me. It happens. Things like limbs don't work, or the fog in my head descends and everything takes twice as long to do. So I've been quiet. Remarkable really. Me quiet. Well I had to step back from the virtual world, I could read, but found commenting - or to be blunt, putting words together difficult. I did try. Gutted really cos I really wanted to do a 100% WOYWW comment/visit for the 3rd anniversary but I failed. I got to some but not all.
Anyway I did however have some fun. I got my hands on my first SMASH journal. Oh my giddy aunt. I love it! I've not been a scrap-booker or journal writer. But I do collect bits and bobs, like tickets & random things. So this idea of having a book to smash it all in appealed to me. Somewhere to record random stuff so that in years to come we/my son/future generations could look back and see who I really was, to see what I liked, to see what I did, where I went etc. I like that idea.
So I'll share some (well lots really) pictures with you of my book, the blue one, cos well it's me -
That was the plain (well not plain cos it has super pages but I mean before I did anything) book, now to show you some of what I've done to it so far -
I love the idea it can be less perfect than say my picture memory album which just show pictures of certain times. This book can be as random as I like, suits me perfectly. I can share silly stuff like my favourite food, or like the last couple of pics; my favourite colours and things.
I have a plan - to share. My fav characters to colour, my fab books, my fav people and places. Quotes that speak to me. Clothes that I love. Shoes I just need but can't wear. It's endless really so I guess I shall need another book or 2 or 3......
Okay so maybe I just need them all, every colour, every style.
Cos do you know - they make me smile!
Take care Zo xx

Love what you have done so far Zoe, think I may need to give this a try I like the idea that it can be random stuff Faye x
Great Smash! I have just read your "all about me" page and think you have immense courage. So good on you - and I'm still working down the WOYWW list myself, I haven't finished it yet.
Hope you enjoy the weekend.
Sorry to hear you haven't been feeling yourself .
I love this idea and love what you have done with your smash book . Think I might need one of these.
Take care and sending you big hugs

I hope you are feeling better today Zoe, I know how awful it is to be at the mercy of your body.
I do some scrapbook stuff but I love the idea of a smash book. I have a house full of theatre and train tickets and recipes on scraps of paper. Every so often I have a clean out but it always upsets me to get rid of these memories.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Zoe, hope you are feeling a little better. Smash books seem to be the new 'in thing', and I love what what you have done in yours so far.Have you die cut your name, or are they bought chipboard letters. I love the style of font.Hope you feel up to a bit more 'smashing' lol.
