when one journey ends, another must be started

Well... as a few know, for the past while I've been in a competition... Well.. this comeptition was for a spot on the Scrapboxx design team.. Something that i have wanted ever since i joined an online scrapping community and seriously... the spot that i have considered the pot at the end of the rainbow.
This scrap competition was to be done in 6 rounds... While i have been so lucky to be part of this experience, part of me thought i was crazy to take on such an indepth challenge with the move looming so close and with everything else happening at the moment. For the past week or so ive been really stressing as i look at my callander and try and figure out when the last round should be needing to be submitted and when the announcement would be made. While it was only a rough estimate, i had calculated the last round being submitted the day of our move and the announcement on who had won the comp announced the day we moved in!!!
talk about stress!

Well...last night, the announcement was made as to who would go through to the next round, round 5. I was sound asleep when this descision was made. Unfortunately, this is where my journey ended. While im bummed that i must now bow out of the game, part of me is breathing a big sigh of relief that it is one stress crossed off my list now...

Last night, before turning in i finally plucked the courage to submit some of my work to Scrapbooking Memories Magazine like Alison has been harping on me to do for months.. well Al, im sure you will be very pleased to know that i have submitted 8 last night.
I shall submit my Scrapboxx DT challenge work now as well...

when one door closes, another normally opens.. right? Lets now sit back... put this all in the hands of fate and see what door shall next open for me.
