Not too good 2008-05-27 19:28:16 of an average this month. I'll strive to do better this coming month. It just seems like the days are just flying by. Heck, I just watched the season finale of Survivor last night, so that puts me about 2...
Blogathon 2008 2008-05-29 07:17:00 Yep ... it's almost that time again. I'm thinking about what charity to blog for this year. I want it to be cancer or ovarian cancer related, since my mom is fighting ovarian cancer at the moment. Last year, I...
Cruisin 2009 2008-05-28 07:28:00 I've committed to going on the next Hilltop Cruise, which will be March 2009. It will depart from Tampa and go to Belize. I already can't wait for it to get here. We'll be traveling on Royal Caribbean again. The...
High School Reunion 2008-05-30 07:42:00 No ... not the reality show, but real life. I'm coming up on my 30th High School
Reunion (if you do the math, don't even mention that I'm getting old). I'm starting to get emails from Classmates.com about it. I... Read more:High School
Roof Update 2008-05-31 09:50:00 So the roof is finished - and it looks beautiful. All in all the process wasn't too painful but I'm glad I won't have to deal with it for another 20+ years. I've got to get out there and take... Read more:Update
Reading 2008-06-02 17:03:04 My friend Linda reads faster than I do. She reads an author Jodi Picoult and I had never read her. Apparently Linda turned another friend Kip onto reading Jodi Picoult books too, so I just had to go out and... Read more:Reading
Updates 2008-06-03 12:35:11 Since I didn't blog much last month, here is an update of things happening in life. Mom got a new port put in on Friday, and came through the process with flying colors as they say. Here first Chemo dose...
Addicted to Panera Bread 2008-06-09 14:08:06 So I don't know what it is (because I do have a panini maker at home) but I just love Panera Bread
. I seem to have an addictive personality (in a good way), and my latest addition is Panera Bread.... Read more:Addicted
This is Funny 2008-06-10 22:44:07 but you'll only "get" it if you are a scrapbooker. If you're not, it may not be as funny to you so never mind. So I'm visiting the Cosmo Cricket site and there is a button that says "Dear Hubby... Read more:Funny
On a Creative Note 2008-06-19 21:52:00 I have one more card to share. I'm working with another line of Cosmo Cricket Paper - this is the wanted collection and this paper is called Kissin' Kate. I've mounted it on a light orange or peach Bazzil (although...
Frankie's Cruise 2008-06-18 17:34:00 Our usual 2nd Saturday of the month cruise was at the Roadhouse Grill ... well since all the Roadhouses closed, the orgainzers had to find a new location. This month they had it at Frankie
's Pizza on Bird Road. If... Read more:Cruise
Mom Update 2008-06-17 20:17:00 Mom's cancer indicator levels have come down quite a bit. Which is fantastic ! They draw a level right before she gets her chemo treatment, so the next level will be drawn later this month. Just from the first dose... Read more:Update
On A Creative Roll ... 2008-06-16 19:36:00 here's some more stuff that I've been working on. First is an embellished gift bag. I've used the CosmoCricket Jitterbug papers (Peggy Sue), mounted it on Bazzil Raven paper, I've also used Phrase Cafe stickers and the ScrappyCat Stamps. Taking...
A Few Creations 2008-06-15 15:13:00 I've been playing around some this weekend with some Cosmo Cricket papers. Some of these papers were some kits that I had won in one of the raffles at the Crop4Hope last year. This card is using the Jitterbug line...
Finished Songs of the Humpback Whale 2008-06-14 19:14:00 So I told you when I started the book that I was loving it and now that I'm finished, I can say WOW, what a great read. First, it was different from my normal genre of police procedurals and crime... Read more:Whale
A-Muse Stamps and A-Muse-A-Palooza 2008-06-13 15:34:00 My local stamp store (StampShack) is hosting A-Muse-A-Palooza on July 7th. The owner of A-Muse (Linda Carnell) will be teaching classes. I'm going to try to go, but it is on a work day, so I need to see if... Read more:Stamps
CKC Ft. Lauderdale 2008-06-12 12:48:00 To go or not to go. One of the women I work with is going to CKC when it comes to Ft. Lauderale later this month, and I'm debating on whether to go or not. I've never been to a... Read more:Lauderdale
Chloe Marie by DaisyD 2008-06-11 14:01:00 This is a new line from Daisy D and in my opinion it is gorgeous. It recently was released (May). I was just surfing around and came upon it. Looks like a trip to the local scrap store is in... Read more:Chloe

News of the Weird 2008-07-03 13:00:08 So last night when I got home from work, I had a toothache. One of those mouth and head pounding ones if you know what I mean. I couldn't even concentrate on my TV programs, so about midnight I decided... Read more:Weird
Reality Break 2008-07-02 15:54:40 Hells Kitchen - I'm rooting for Petrozza. I can't wait to see how their restaurants turn out. I could not believe that he picked Bobby for his team right out of the gate. He would have had the show wrapped... Read more:Break
Stamp Store Moving 2008-07-01 22:42:38 I'm ashamed to say that I tried to go to my favorite stamping store - and they have moved. The store was empty with a sign that had the new address and said it would reopen at the new location... Read more:Stamp

Sheetload 2008-06-30 15:49:52 I found this site (I'd say new site, but they've been around for awhile and I didn't know it). Every month they make a whold bunch of cards from just one sheet of printed paper and some cardstock. It's pretty...
Scrap Envy Again 2008-06-28 09:40:00 This weekend is the HilltopMemories birthday crop, which is where I want to be. Of course, end of the month at work and all that so I decided that I didn't want to push it. Jackie tried to convince me... Read more:Scrap

Would You Pay This ? 2008-06-27 18:17:27 So I was visiting my local Target, and stopped to look at cards. I find inspiration for my own handmade cards by looking at the cards for sale in stores. So to get to the point, I picked up a...
Finished "Promise Not To Tell" 2008-06-26 18:38:00 This is the debut novel of Jennifer McMahon. I really loved it. Close to my genre (there was a murder in it), but not police procedural type. It's one of those books where you're reading about the past and the...
Christmas Already !?! 2008-06-24 14:20:13 Yes, it's true. I have officially started my Christmas
shoppping. I usually get an early start (August), but this year I came across this on Ebay, so just had to buy it for hubby. It's a 1953 Buick Skylark, which...
Creative Output 2008-06-23 11:37:43 First I started playing with a pad from Masterpiece Studio which had cardstock, paper, letters, strips and sayings. The paper is smooth and slick and very nice to work with. The flowers are brads by Creative Imaginations - they are... Read more:Output
All is Well 2008-06-22 22:50:00 My SIL was discharged at noon Sunday, and went straight to the shower. Had lots of fun and she received some very cute stuff. They are doing an animal ABC theme and it's brights. They got the whole collection (sheets,...
Useless Bits 2008-07-17 16:32:47 So facebook has this thing called Pieces of Flair (originated with the movie Office Space). It's little buttons that you put on a bulletin board. Well, it's sort of my new addiction. I love searching for little pieces of me...
Exciting Crop4Hope Stuff 2008-07-16 17:04:50 Don't Miss This Crop ! Jackie and I are in the planning stages for the Crop4Hope in November, and everything is coming right along. We've ordered extra tables, and the donations are coming in hot and heavy with even a...
