I started my personal blog http://www.desiref.blogspot.com way back in January 2006. DOING LIFE mainly showcases my passions for photography, CARDmaking, scrapbooking and various other crafts as well as reporting about (scrap) happenings in my day-to-day life.  I have met amazing like minded friends in cyber space, some of whom have become real life friends as well.  I have been teaching scrapbooking and cardmaking on an ongoing basis since 2002.      In the words of Richard Jeffries:  "The hours when the mind is absorbed by beauty are the only hours we live."
