IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS

One week from today and it will be Christmas morning.  The smell of coffee, fresh rolls baking and the excitement of the little ones waiting to open the gifts that Santa has left.  Knowing the real reason for this day will bring warmth to our heart and souls.  Gathering with Family with Love all around.  Because one little baby came to earth and showed us how we are to live.  It's easy to remember on this one day about kindness and forgiveness.  It's the rest of the year that we need to have the Love of Jesus in our hearts and remember not everyone has it as good as we do.  At ties we always want more, but just know someplace in this world, someone has it a lot less then we do.  Anyone reading my blog has a warm house to be in and electricity to run the computer.  So thank God for all we have and all we can be.  This world isn't what we want it to be these days, but each one of us can make it the best it can be if we just do our best, love each other and forgive as God forgives us all.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ANS PEACE TO ALL.

FALL FUNNIES

Some funny things have been going on with me.
I went to the doc. (yesterday) to pick up some scripts. I saw what I thought was a
really homely looking woman. I had to correct myself because that wasn't a nice thing to say. But this woman had on a skirt that was mid leg with white socks and boots. Kinda like olive oil, hair that was frizzy and standing up. As
she was looking down to the ground I started to feel sorry for her
and thought she must not have very much. To my surprise..She looked up.
It was a MAN. Or a young man. I had to laugh out loud. I wanted to take his picture.
But I thought it wouldn't be the best thing to do.

That late afternoon I went to get the groceries for Thanksgiving and the store was
packed. I couldn't even think. I got my turkey and something to fix for
supper and got out of there. Said I'd be back tomorrow.

That brings me to today. It's been raining so hard. I had to go to the doc. with my mother and back to the store. After her appointment I said I'm taking you home. I'll
pick up what you need when the rain slows down. Visited my local K-Mart and on my way to the car it was still pouring, but the gal next to me pushed her cart just to the side of my car. Now there was no way I could get out without hitting the cart.
I had to get out in the rain and move it. She never looked at me. I stood in the rain for a few extra seconds and she was too busy to look up. I'm sure she saw me.
Oh well.

I made it to Kroger after doing some other little stops. STILL RAINING. Oh
yes, yesterday I had to go out and get a shopping cart because they were all gone.
Today I got one before I went in and had to turn back. I even had a rag to wipe it down. Anyway I got my shopping all done and drove a block before I realized
I forgot to turn my lights on. It was 6:30, raining and very dark. What a goof.
But I must say I got it all done. I hope tomorrow will be a better day. Hope my pies don't burn and I get some good sleep. Oh did I say I woke up at 3 am?
No I forgot that. Well it's almost 11 pm with no nap. I hope I can sleep a
good and long sleep tonight.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
MAY GOD BLESS.

FOUND A PIC.

So it looks like I should have posted a bigger picture. This is my minds eye paper. I like it because it does a lot of the work for you. Then added some dragonfly's and pearls. Just add a word or two and it will be ready to send. I had so much fun working with my ready made embellishments.




So I was able to find 2 pics. My husband takes all rights with the computer. He feels I can damage what he installs and so he has added my pics on two places. It depends on which camera I use. In this card The main paper is my minds eye. Used a stamp for the manikin and added the lace to the side. My first attempt to shabby. Need more work.

Better get off to another project of the day. Till next time make it a good day.

Update with a SMILE.

Ok..It's been too long since my last post. I uploaded pics of the cards I made with my new stuff and they were all sideways. I'll have to get into them first and try to rotate them. Can't believe its been more then a month. Some things just get put on the back burner.

We have had a really HOT summer. I rather enjoy it. WHY? Because it warms up our above ground pool. We have so many trees that it never gets a day of abundant sun. I like the water to be about 80. Yes I said 80. I need to get into it today because the weather is going to take a turn for cooler weather. Like in the mid to upper 80's. Believe me when I say that will cool the pool down soon it if starts to get lower.

I did get some new fun stuff yesterday. Jo-ann's was having a great sale. $29.99 cricut cartridges. I got "Straight from the nest". Also Spellbinders nestabilities were 40 % 0ff. I got Lacey Circles. I'm not sure if I made the right choice on that. So many great selections to look at. And a book on Jewelry making. I've been working on some of that. I made 4 bracelets and gave away 3. I'll probable end up taking a class to learn it all.

Well I'm off to see if I can rotate those pictures so I can post them. Maybe then go play in my craft room.

Till next time God Bless and Make it a Great day.

SHOPPING FUN.



A DAY OF SHOPPING WITH SALES OF 50% OFF. I JUST LOVE THE FUN.

As you can see I got a bunch of " goodies ". I went in to look and came out with a bag of stuff.
The Paper is My minds eye. This is the first time I have ever seen this paper. I have seen many cards made with it . So happy when it was at Hobby Lobby. Not on sale at this time but I had to get some
before my chance ran out. The next week it went on sale. So YES I got more. Why not?

I got the photo album because I took some pictures out of picture frames and have never worked on a scrapbook. Thought this would be a great time to try my hand at it. I have 2 planned but none have been
started on. Who knows if I will ever get it done. My guess is never. I hate to say it, but who knows myself better then me but me.

I had a lot of fun making cards with my new paper, lace and embellishments. Pic to come soon.

Now go and create something.

SPRING

Have you ever stood an egg on it's side
on the first day of spring? My mother and I
do this every year. It always works. Sometimes it takes longer then others. I have given up
too. This year it lasted till I took it down. My
Mother's lasted for 24 hours and then it fell over.

Try it next spring if you remember.
