New Photography Site

It's been a long time...

Steinway passed away in October of 2011 leaving many fond memories but also an empty space in my heart.  In March, a new bunny came into my life to fill that void.  His name is Winnie Pooh...

This unexpected turn of events gave me the idea for Little White Rabbit Photography @ http://www.debratopedesigns.com/ - this site will feature photography and blog posts.  Check it out!

What's Up?

As you may have noticed, my stint w/FunkyPlayground was very brief. The FPD crew were just wonderful but I decided to focus my energies on Oscraps as I work FT and it became apparent that I was really stretching myself thin trying to maintain 2 shops.

Lately I've been withdrawing from the digiscrap world, trying to do stuff like take out the trash, go to bed on time and keep my house clean! I seem to find every excuse in the book to stay online way too late. Finding balance is tough for me and I don't even have kids :)

A lady from my church commented that my townhome looked like a magazine. Boy little did she know that I actually thought I would turn my townhome into a magazine ready palace soon after moving in. Oops...I am still haunted by the unfinished pet gate, the upstairs hall which has one coat of paint and areas where I couldn't even reach the ceiling. Not to mention the bedroom trim which has been decimated by Ms. Penelope, the resident rabbit, and the numerous patches of dug up carpet that can be found throughout the upstairs.

But at least SOMEONE thinks my place looks like a magazine! After about 4 years or so it's finally coming together...
