I have just joined a group called addicted to scrapbooking. It is quite amusing, as my husband jokes that I am part of some cult. I can’t help it, though. I love to scrapbook and I think I am pretty good at it. So, you can imagine how happy I was to hear about the great deals on Canadian scrapbook supplies.
Scrapbooking is a very expensive hobby and so I am pumped when I find good deals. There wasn’t a lot available for scrapbooking supplies Canada, so when I find a good site, it is like Christmas. In fact, I think I will but my own Christmas presents here.
I think scrapbook supplies Canada online is a relatively new thing. I found some great websites with some great deals in the States, only to find out that they don’t ship to Canada. It broke my heart. Yes, that is how much I love to scrapbook. I would say, besides my husband and kids, it is my third true love!
Since I was a child, I have loved poetry. I tried to experience it from many different perspectives (through song, written words, and even writing it myself) to get immersed in the art.
I thought I had experienced all aspects of poetry until I attended the funeral of my grandmother. You see one of the eulogies that were read also had a couple of funeral poems in it.
I had never seen this side of poetry before.
After the funeral was over, I went over to talk to the gentleman who read the eulogy that contained poetry. I asked him where he got the idea to use poetry at the funeral. He said he found it in one of those "How to Write a Eulogy" books from the library.
I am going to have to look into this aspect of poetry, as I somehow missed it altogether. And I thought I knew everything about poetry…
