Right NOW... oh, how I look forward to this- a CREATIVE ESCAPE
I have some pretty awful things going on. I found out who the person who has been emailing me and commenting on my blog is. I decided not to post the horrible emails and accusations. I was threatened with exposure- an ACTUAL video from CHA that would be shown yesterday to the WORLD (of course doing something immoral with someone other than my husband) and expose me for what I am. Just typing it makes my stomach turn. I had enough and thanks to a friend---- who has friends in high places...well, the person was tracked by her IP address.
I went to the police department yesterday and had to face the TRUTH... this is a person that I KNOW... and it's all there in black and white. This is a very serious matter and due to legal and an ongoing investigation- I will not comment further. Get this... I knew there was no video, because I would never ever do anything like the accusations like that. I am completely madly in love with my husband and I am so MAD that anyone would try to hurt him- my BEST FRIEND and family to this extent. My heart hurts at the pain this person tried to cause the very ones I love the most. Attack me all you want- but don't come after my family. I try to protect them at all costs. I can't believe who this person is. I can't believe that I thought she was a friend. I keep reading the report over and over...thinking HOW is this possible???? How did I trust her and have no idea who she really is? I have never been so confused and hurt. I want to tell you that your comments strengthened me this weekend. I am thankful for the police department who is taking this matter seriously and helping me with peace of mind. OKAY- enough... I have to FOCUS on the GOOD... and not the LOSS...
Here is something really good-
CREATIVE ESCAPE...

i am SO looking forward to meeting her... i was DELIGHTED when she
accepted the invitation to teach..(would you believe that i was SO shy

inspires me and i am thrilled that we'll have her brilliance and happy
energy among us! she is SO cool. every time we get on the phone, the
minutes melt into hours and we just talk and talk and imagine. we would
never be able to keep up with our ideas, but it would be SO fun to try!

wait to see what she's got cookin!AND... little 'ole me. i am so lucky! (smile). This is the 5th year for Creative Escape...
and we are in FULL PLANNING stages! of course we must TOP last year!
(is that possible)?? and we are incorporating some totally new elements
into the experience! we have TONS of sponsors that are joining forces
with us to make this year the best ever! for the first time, we did
pre-sell about 1/3 of the spots available on the last night of last
year's event... signing up for the LOTTERY does not OBLIGATE you to the
spot. if you happen to be selected, you can choose to register you and
a guest- or just you... as people that are selected either register or
decline... we will continue to pull names and notify people with
registration codes! Once you are registered officially, you can book
your accommodations at the GORGEOUS Wild Horse Pass Sheraton.
(its soooo delux) The Lottery will begin it's first round of selections
on Feb 15th... (you can't win if you don't play)... Creative Escape is
the most amazing scrapbook event and retreat. year after year, people
are touched, filled, inspired, delighted and most of all-- it seems
that they makes friends for life. there is really something MAGICAL and
BEAUTIFUL about it! and while the Bazzill team deserves the credit for
all the crazy hard work... and we have spectacular, passionate
teachers- and INSPIRING keynote speakers! ... REALLY... it's all the
good, fabulous women who attend that make the magic! i hope you will
be there with us in 2010~
I have to say that I am very excited. I feel honored to be asked... I love Heidi and think she is one of the kindest girls I know. I admire her on not only a professional level but her HEART. I have been blessed to know her. So are you ready for a CREATIVE ESCAPE???? I am...
