Happy Weekend!!!

I so need to get my self doing something, but I have absolutely no energy (?) and it is really muggy!!! So I think I am going to hide in my air conditioned craft room and hem my mommy's pants and work on my new kitchen curtains. This is a card I send to cousin Lisa (in April)! I stamped the image at Miss Dawns house, I really think I need some of these ladies!! Have a really nice day!! :-}

my thoughts for today. . .

Just my random thoughts (not that anyone cares) 1) Who is Heidi and Spencer and why are they famous??? (Weirdos) 2) Does Monica Conyers really think anyone is praying for her??? (if you are you are crazy also!) 3) Why must we deal with family members when we do not want to? (You do not have to deal with anyone else should you chose not to.) 4) Why do they always cancel TV shows that I love?? (Pushing Daisies) 5) How did my little boy become 23???? (Next Friday) Just some random thoughts for you all today. Please remember mean people SUCK!!! Have a nice day :-)!

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!

Ok, enough of this, it is time to kick some Pittsburgh butt!!! Go Wings!!!

that's a wrap. . .

Well everything has wrapped up!! American Idol: Kris Allen (ok), Dancing with the Stars: Shawn Johnson (I am good with that too), Survivor: JT (I love JT), The Celebrity Apprentice: Joan Rivers (I believe I have said this before - YUCK!!!!!) So maybe now I will actually get something done around my house!! We need to finish the kitchen (painting and stuff), switching my craft room and my sons bedroom (I have way toooooooooo much stuff), and clean up the yard. Mom is coming to town in the middle of June so I really need to get my butt moving!!! Hope all is going well for everyone, and I will be posting some cards very soon!! Keep smiling and have a nice day!! :-)

Wednesday. . .

Hope everyone is getting through this lovely crazy patch of life ok!!! I have been sewing quite a bit lately, watching all the reality TV I can get, and routing for the wings!!! So of course I have not been blogging! Lets start with Dancing with the Stars - hello what is America thinking?????? Ty Murray might be a perfectly nice gentlemen but HE CANNOT DANCE!!!! I just loved Lil Kim and I really thought she had a chance to win, but noooooooooooo America voted to keep the guy who cannot dance! Now, The Celebrity Apprentice - Joan Rivers needs to GROW UP!!! Enough said - Have a nice day!!! :-)

Hello . . . .

Today I baked cookies all day(but still have not eaten any!!). I love to give gifts for different occasions so I made Easter sugar cookies while I got my vegetables ready for tomorrow. The weather here is really kind of nice for a change, the sun is shining and it is about 50 degrees and we get to go bowling tonight then come home and wait for the Easter Bunny!!! So I just wanted to post another card or two for cousin Michelle. I love the mice. Happy Easter everyone!!

Thursday. . .

Hello out there in blog land!!! I have recently joined Facebook and I am still not sure that I prefer that to blogging. For me I leaning towards blogging as more comfortable (for me anyway). So many people do not understand the whole scrapbooking, card making thing that when you post on your blog it just seems more personal. Oh well everyone has there own opinion. Now for all you Detroit Tiger fans - tomorrow is opening day! I am not going to the game (did that opening day thing once - never again) but I hope they have a great season. Now a little present for cousin Michelle, another mouse for you. Have a nice day everyone!!

April Fools Day. . . .

Happy middle of the week everyone!!! I have been watching more reality TV!!! Little Megan Joy got the boot on American Idol tonight. There was something about her that I really liked. But as you all know someone has to go. Yesterday the apple guy and the playboy bimbo went home from Dancin, I was soooooooooo ok with that!!! Here in lovely Detroit, Michigan we will be having the Final Four college basketball tournament this weekend, now I am not really big into sports but Michigan State is in the final four!!! So everyone say "GO STATE"!!!!! (By the way I got another "Mouse" and I just love him. Let me know what you think.)

Great Shot!!!

Ok, I take way too many pictures of my girls. At least that is what my husband says. But this has to be one of the greatest shots I have ever gotten of Lacey!! Isn't she just the cutest fat cat you have ever seen!!!! So on to another subject, Dancing with the stars. . . good-bye Denise. Ok I did not think she was really that good but who voted to keep Steve the Apple computer guy???? What were you thinking?!?!?!? I do believe Cloris was a better dancer!!! I do believe I am becoming a reality TV junkie!!! Well hope you all had a wonderful day now sleep tight and have a really nice day tomorrow. :-}

Thought for the day. . .

Does anyone out there think that there is something wrong with Martha Reeves; or is it just me??? I guess you have to live in the Detroit AREA to understand that one!! Have a nice day!!

Wednesday. . .

Happy belated St. Patricks Day! After looking at Pat O'Briens bar on the way home from work last night I decided I was not even leaving my house!!!! I am sure that I was crazy enough in my youth (probably still am) but the thought of all those drunks on the road at one time . . scarry............... So on to my newest reality addiction, I (if you can believe it) have never watched American Idol before this year. Tonight little Alexis got kicked off, and I don't know how I feel about that, I know someone has to go but I really do not think she was the worse singer. Oh well I can still cheer for Julianne on Dancing!!! So I did make another St. Pat's card - better late than never I always say. Well hope you all sleep tight and have a really nice day tomorrow!!!

a new mouse! ! !

Ok I know I have a slight problem, but I absolutely love these little guys!!!! If I buy one more stamp I do think my husband just might kill me!! Anyway I really like the way this guy turned out, and thanks again Dawn for the coloring techniques!!! Let me know what you think. Also Happy Birthday Terri McCloy!!!!!! Lets go have a drink!!

Hello peeps. . . .

Well I did watch the batchelor, after the final rose last night. I have not watched any of this show until last night, but I have to tell you, I don't get how you think you can actually find love on TV. I know most of you love the show and I watch over my fair share of reality TV, but who Jason picks is not going to affect my life what so ever. Thanks for listening and try "The Celebrity Apprentice" now that is hysterical!!!! Have a nice day!!

Survivor!!!!!!

I am sooooooo excited, finally something I watch is coming back on. Survivor is one of my favorite shows. I know sometimes it is rather gross, but I love it!. In fact I like alot of reality shows, Survivor, Amazing Race, Dancing with the Stars and the best one Big Brother!!! So you all know where I will be in about 15 minutes (it also keeps me away from e-bay!!!) So I will leave you with a new picture of one of my pretty girls I took yesterday. Have a great night remember it is almost FRIDAY!!!

Wednesday . . . .

Well once again I have ignored my blog! I certainly do spend enough time messing around on the computer so I don't know why I can't update this little space. Well here in our little neck of the woods all the snow has melted and it is raining. Go figure February in Michigan?!?!? Lets see what else is new, Kwame is out of jail, too many people are unemployed, and no one has any money. But it is forcing everyone to hang out at home, which is not all bad. I am trying to create a little every night, or at least organize. If I could only stop buying stamps. I did make a few birthday cards. I really do have a thing for house mouse, they are so stinkin cute, but someone tell me I have enough!!! Have a good evening and sleep tight!! I did forget to note that I used watercolor pencils and a blender pen, a technique that Miss Dawn taught me. Isn't it nice to know you can still learn new things!!!

Tuesday. . .

Hope everyone is having a nice day!! I decided I have a real problem, a couple of years ago I got involved in stamps. Now it is a terrible obsession!! If you could see how much scrapbooking and stamping supplies I own, well lets just say I have so much stuff I don't know what I have anymore. So today I received a new box from the mailman!!WooHoo I have developed a real desire to own all the house mouse stamps!! I just love these guys, my husband and cousin Michelle call them Rats!! But they just do not know what cute is. These are 2 cards I made for Christmas, but between Santa and myself I have so many more to use. Have a great day and Stay Warm!!

Christmas is . . . .

Every year I dread Christmas day. Just the actual day, the rest I love! The prep, the anticipation, the whole season, most people just seem nicer! Then Christmas day is here and I have to deal with (and buy gifts for) relatives I see on the average of twice a year. Someday I am going to figure out just how to avoid this!!!! Other than this problem, Christmas was really nice this year. Everyone has job, we are for the most part healthy, and Mom is in from Florida. Also, our weather here in Michigan has been extremely strange for the past 2 weeks. I did not get as many Christmas cards made as I needed to, but then I really was doing sewing projects for Christmas!!!! I must have made 8 pairs of Flannel PJ pants, and I enjoyed every moment!!! Well I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends. (This picture is my favorite neices, nephew, mom and son!!)

Snowing. . . .

Well you all probably thought I fell off the earth. I have not posted anything in so long, I think I forgot how. Halloween has come and gone, the election has come and gone (thank god!!) and even health problems have come and gone!! So this has been an extremely relaxing weekend for me, I have been working on cards and also making a large pot of Chicken noodle soup!!! The weather here in lovely Michigan is really WHITE!!! Yesterday it was windy and rainy all day and today it is snowing like crazy!!!! I am also trying to get some patterns cut out for Flannel pants for Christmas presents, so I have been keeping myself pretty busy. Hope your weekend was also relaxing.

Las Vegas

Well right now I am in Las Vegas and let me tell you the weather here is really bizarre!!! It is like 65 and has been in the sixty's since we got here 3 days ago. We are having a family reunion with my husbands sisters and cousins and having a really nice time even though I really do not gamble much, but my feet and shins are killing me from all the walking. I will post some pictures when I get home. Remember have a really nice day!!!

"BB10"

Big Brother is officially over!!! (I miss it already!!) Yeah Dan won!!! A nice guy and also from Michigan! But what to do with my time now since BB was on 3 nights a week!!! Well I guess that means it is now time for Dancing, Survivor and Boston Legal!! Remember keep smiling it makes people wonder!!
