Two Smilies That Describe Your Life Right Now...Sleepy...And A Little Confused...I just got off work, I'm always sleepy when I get off work! This has been a very hard couple of weeks for a few of my very close friends. One's father is suddenly battling cancer, and the other is having problems in her marriage. These things always cause me a bit of confusion and sadness. Makes me ponder my own

SIX Things You Wish You'd Never Done...Wow... I really don't have a lot of regrets in life. I try to do the best I can with what God has given me. That's not to say that I don't mess up...

I wish I hadn't kept driving on when I should have turned around

Sorry that I've been MIA and missed some days of my "10 Day Challenge"! I've been snowed (more like ICED) in at work and have had limited access. When I got home yesterday, all I wanted to do was snuggle with the Hub and Kitties, and Sleep In My Own Bed! It was FABULOUS! Don't get me wrong, I did have some fun with the girls at work, but let's keep the sleepovers off campus right? LOL! I'll have

It was a cool and crisp Friday night... The moon was full and hanging perfectly in the night sky... Love was in the air... Not just Any kind of love though... This was Zombie Love at it's finest! The Hub and I got all gussied up and headed out to Fergy's Place for their first annual Zombie Prom.

I've been a bad blogger again... I've been sharing my life, but on a different venue. Yes, I have become addicted to Facebook. I've been in a farming frenzy, finding and getting back in contact with old friends from high school and elsewhere, and I've completely laid my blogging obligations aside for the past few months. This is where I would usually beg your forgiveness and make promises

It's been an interesting and busy week for me this week! I worked last Sunday - Tuesday nights which is Always interesting! On Wednesday, I made some cards for Hubby's Lodge (LOL! I never thought I'd "grow up" to be one of those women who's husband went to "Lodge"). Thursday I headed up to the "Mountian" for a visit with the folks and took Daddy to decorate his Daddy's grave Waaaay up in the

This morning I snuggled with my sweet little Charm for the last time. When I woke up this evening I found that he had passed away while I was asleep and dreaming of him playing with Teensy. I'm really going to miss my little buddy but I know he's in a better place now where he can romp and play and isn't bothered with that nasty cancer anymore. These were the last pictures I have of him from the

Still here at the hospital with Daddy... He's disconnected from everything, but was having problems with the post catheter voiding so we're still here. I've read my book... I've twiddled my thumbs, I've played online... Thanks for the free internet Marshall South!And now we wait until morning... again... His pain is minimal, thanks to a dose of Lasix, voiding is now good, he's a lot more

Yanno, sometimes I'm just amazed at what modern medicine can accomplish! I've been a nurse for 12+ years and I have seen/heard of quite a lot of way cool things that can be done these days. Well, Today, I was amazed again...Some of you may already know that I've been sitting with my Daddy in the hospital this weekend. He's a young man of 82 and he tries to stay pretty active.

This past weekend was Jerri's 3rd Annual Crop 2 Help Scrapbooking Retreat. I got to spend 48 hours with 23 fellow scrapbookers and it was a Blast! I got to bunk with my buds Jill and Mona, met a few new folks, re-united with some that I've not seen over the past year, got to hug on and hang out with my favorite Jen, watched Mona chase the ducks, went to a great new scrapbook store (The Scrapbook

So, this edition of Fun Monday is brought to us by Jo Beaufoix (who has finally gotten her blog back up and running! Congrats Lady!), and She would like to hear about our first Celeb Crushes.

Ok, so I've been a slacker this week and haven't yet posted my Fun Monday... Actually, I did Think about it on Monday morning (yeah right... it's NOT morning until the sun has actually risen! Ack!) as I was driving in to work to do a fundraiser for Women's Services (We sold over $400 in goodies BTW). I thought about it on Sunday afternoon as well after my 4 hour nap after work and while mixing

This morning before leaving work I decided to partake of the Uniform Sale that was going on in the North Pavilion. We hospital folk just LOVE our Uniform Sales, and I ended up with several items that I felt I Needed (aka, were too cute to pass up) and got in line. A few minutes, one dropped item and four purple fingers later it was my turn to sign my receipt for payroll deduction and head for

I have been tagged by Jennifer my Dustbunny Hostage friend once again. I'm still not quite sure what a "Meme" is but I'll play along anyway. Anyone want to enlighten me on this by the way?Per Jen:Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more (no cheating).Find page 123.Find the first 5 sentences.Post the next three sentences.Tag 5 people.Ok... I'm at work, so the nearest book to me is

I was tagged last week by my friend Jerri and just got around to getting my answers up. Sorry Jerri!WHAT IF?1) What If I could meet someone in the art world to chat with? Oh, that one's EASY! I have Much Love for Carol Duvall and would freak if I ever got to have a sit down with her. She's been my "Craft Mama" ever since I can remember watching crafty shows on the TV.

This week's edition of Fun Monday is brought to you by Janet at From the Planet of Janet and she says...So here's what I want to read about: Write the brief synopsis of this film that you might use to pitch this project and cast the principal players. Who would play you? You can either cast or ignore significant others, children and/or pets. This is, after all, YOUR movie about you you YOU!

Just wanted to show y'all how I spent my evening yesterday... There is a small Roller Derby League here and they happen to hold their bouts at my local Skating Rink and their first bout of the season was last night. The Tragic City Rollers played against the Dixie Derby Girls and Won 112 to 97 ! WoooHooo! We started going along with a couple of our friends "just to have something to do" every

It was a dark and stormy night.... No... wait... that was on Tuesday, and a whole different story.Yesterday DH and I both got up nice and early, and he was being just the sweetest thing deciding to help me give this house a good once over.

Today I made a decision to do something that I've been meaning to do for what seems like forever. Don't you hate it when you keep telling yourself that you need to do something, like clean up your craft room, and it keeps getting put off? Well, that's what has happened until yesterday when I attempted to walk into the room and came to the realization that I had nothing but a bare little hog trail

Yesterday morning on my way home from work I stopped by our local Rip-Em-Off Gas Station to get DH his morning "sippie" (aka. Diet Pepsi, I swear the man Lives for this stuff!). So what do my wandering eyes spot? This.... Well, of course I was all a fluster! I mean, it's Sunkist, and it's a Float, and it's in a way cool shaped bottle!

ok, so it's not exactly new... and it's going to be missing a part or two, and i'm already thinking of ways to tweak my experience with it, but I'm waaaay excited! It's good to have friends that are tool junkies and are willing to pass on their older stuff to you at a great price! So... as soon as I can get over to pick it up, I'll be the proud owner of my own Cricut! Can you see me doing a

I started my day with a friendly face and a happy memory this morning. As I watched my bowl of oatmeal turn round and round in the microwave, I was thinking about my Dad. When I was little I would wake up during the week for school to the smell of him cooking breakfast. One of our favorites was toast and Quaker Oats with a little butter, sugar and a healthy pour of milk. We would always take the

As you all know... I live in the Heart of Dixie... Smack dab in the middle of the great state of Alabammy. So snow is a BIG thing here! One news station had reporters out all morning trying to find these elusive flakes, there were children laying on the dusted ground trying their very best to make snow angels, scooping up scant handfuls of the white stuff to toss at each other, and doing their

Here I lay again, this time I'm at Mom & Dad's for a visit using some poor neighbor soul's wireless access. This night blogging thing may become a habit if I keep it up! Every thing's fine here for those of you that are keeping up with the parental happenings. OK, so anyway, I was looking through the photos I posted of the Crop 2 Help Retreat and saw that I had left out one very important person.

Ok, so it's been nearly three months since I've updated my blog. Jerri has been hounding me every chance she got, Vikki's been asking when I'm going to update, and even the Hubby has been wondering if I'm ever going to "put more stuff on my web hickey" so I'm FINALLY updating as I lay here with Charm half hanging on the keyboard begging for attention and Hubby snores. :o) Gotta love a laptop!!!

And it's my first! I'm no longer a "Tag" virgin! LOL! Ok... so I reckon I'll do some updating more often just in case I get tagged again some day! Here's what I'm supposed to do....* Post 7 random things about me.* Tag 7 other bloggers to do the same.* Post rules and the bloggers I tagged here.* Leave tagged bloggers a comment at their site to let them know that they've been tagged.Randomness to

There are only 28 days left before the Fall / Winter Collection Catalog comes out for Stampin' Up! I got my preview brochure the other day and all I can say is WOW!!! There is a new set of In Colors and I am in Love with ALL of them! Y'all know that I'm a Green kinda Gal and I'm simply Wild over Wild Wasabi! I'll probably be using that on just about everything! I am definitely mourning several of

I had almost forgotten what the wet stuff looked like! Hopefully this will help to get some of the smokiness out of the air and wash the smell off everything. WOOHOOO!

What can I say... I've had a busy May! We ended it well though with celebrating Hubby's Birthday yesterday. We ended up going to Costa's Mediterranean Cafe for dinner after he opened up and played with his new stereo. Thank You Lord for giving me this man who is soo easy to please and loves me to boot! I am truly blessed!I visited my parents for Mother's Day and took Mom a scrapbooked canvas that

I know, I've been a Terrible blogger lately! It seems that life gets busy, and the last thing on my mind is to actually share what's going on with you all. Heck, if I'd actually DO that then things most likely wouldn't be nearly so hard to handle because I'd know that I have friends that want to know why I'm being so quiet and all. Ok... so... here come the updates!#1 - I've been to a Stampin' Up

I went to the Helena Crop on Friday night and had a Blast! I've not been able to meet up with this group in several months and was in BAD need of catching up. I got some cards done for a swap I'm in and even got a double page layout done. Ok.. so I go more for the fellowship. A lady needs some Girly Time every once in a while, and this is mine! :o) Here are a couple of pics of what I got

And not a drop to drink. Imagine walking into your kitchen to toss something into the trash and hearing a weird "Pop!"followed by some sizzling and water running. Welcome to my Tuesday afternoon nightmare... Death of a Hot Water Heater (Act I). Thank You Lord that both Bill and I were both off and home today and going to be tomorrow, that I just happened to be in the kitchen when it happened

Blog Update - Well, I've finally done it. I've done the "Big Update" of the old Blog! I've given it a new name to match the new look and plan on using this as my Stampin' Up!® demo site as well. Sooooo... plan to see more stampin' stuff coming up along with my general ramblings.Life Update - I'm still alive, and kicking for those who may have wondered! LOL! Been busy with work and all the

La la la la la laa laa laa! Sorry, having a bit of a "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" moment there... the Original one... not the freaked out, not quite human Johnny Depp version.So I have spent all day with my friend Mona craft shopping looking for cool scrappy gifts for a cool scrappy gal pal of mine that's celebrating her birthday with a crop tomorrow. And, she's doing it up right...

Today started out nice and sunny, mild temps, and looking like a fabulous fall day... Now... It's raining and gloomy. I had several things I wanted to get done today, one of which was to get the latest addition to my scrap room painted. It's a wooden media shelf that was a great yard sale find for $5 and in need of a coat of paint. As I was begining the first coat of paint, the bottom fell

Jerri's Crop 2 Help retreat was a BLAST! I made some great new friends, learned how to alter a canvas, won a couple of cool door prizes, got to teach a few people how to use their chalks, and ate like a pig! There was tons of food, fun and fellowship and I drank it all in like a thirsty woman in the middle of a desert. This was absolutely one of the most fun retreats that I've ever been to

I'm heading out tomorrow afternoon to the long awaited Crop 2 Help Retreat that my friend Jerri is hosting this weekend! I'm soo freaking excited! GIRLIE TIME!!! Not to mention 48 hours of cropping, food, classes, friendship and fun! I've got my two make and takes ready, just got my supply order in and new catalogs are sitting on my kitchen table, clothes are washing so neither me or Hubby will

These are samples of the card I sent and the card I received for the August Card Of The Month on one of my groups.I sent out this one made with the Loads of Love and Loads of Love Accessories stamp sets. CS colors were Whisper White, Gable Green & Pixie Pink. Inks used were Basic Black & Tempting Turquoise. The rest was colored in using Blender pens with the Stampin' Pastels.I received this one

I was in a Bottle Swap at one of my groups (I already posted a pic of the bottle I sent) and I finally got one back today. YAY!!! I was soo freaking excited to tear into this thing that I nearly didn't take a pic of it beforehand! A HUGE Thank You goes out to Jeanette for everything she stuffed inside! Here's a list...

I just love my mornings... waking up to a quiet house, sitting at the computer checking my email and blogs while eating my breakfast. This morning it was leftover Beef Tips and Mashed Potatoes from Texas Roadhouse. Oh my Gosh are they good! It's my absolute favorite and I order it every time we trek to the place. DH and I had a lesiurely ride to the campus at UA where he was checking out a

At 5am while at work surfing the net and waiting for quitting time to get here... I thought this was one of the cutest pictures of a kitten that I've seen in quite a while. Don't you agree???And now for something that is just wrong! We were talking on one of my groups a while back about poodles and the people who dye them strange colors. Well... I do believe that this is my first ever time seeing

I get a call this morning at work at 4am from a distraught DH. He was originally awakened by our furry kittyson yowling, so when he got him quietened down he heard that oh too familiar spraying sound in the bathroom again. Yep, we sprung another leak. This time looks like a repeat of the main line break that we had over 2 years ago. So, here we go a diggin again and hopefully it won't be too

I joined an interesting stamping/scrapbooking swap this month... We were supposed to get a 2 liter bottle and fill it up with goodies then seal it back up, address it and send it off in the mail sans box to upir swap partner. Well, I did it and can you believe that I didn't even get one strange look from my postal clerk when I brought it in to mail out? Makes me wonder just what sorts of packages

DH has graduated with a degree in Culinary Arts from Culinard! YAY! He walked across that stage looking soo dapper in his cheffy suit holding his head high and grinning from ear to ear. I was such a proud wifey that he said he could hear me cheering for him from half way up at the Concert Hall that we were in! *GRIN!* I am soo proud of him for accomplishing one of his goals in life, to get a

Eggs, cleaning, time running out, DH's graduation tomorrow, cleaning, cooking, cleaning, praying that everything goes without a hitch. This is my life until tomorrow evening. I realized this morning that I have retained yet another quirk belonging to my mother. I remember when I was young that every time she expected company to come she would go into a cooking and cleaning frenzy until the very

It's certainly been a Monday today! Actually, it's been a Monday since about 8 last night. I wake up, head in the bathroom as usual and step in a cold wet spot. "Oh Joy" I think... "Was it the Kitties or has DH simply lost his mind and missed the potty completely?" I smoosh a dirty towel around and forget about it. DH arrives from work and steps into a full blown puddle in the bathroom. Yep...

Here it is, almost time to go back to work again after several days off. I hate tomorrow. I know I need to go back, I'm tired of being at home, yet I still don't want to do it. Am I the only one that suffers from this? Does it have a name? Seems that Everything has a name these days.So I started doing this Blog thing because of a friend... two really.
