bummed :(

well I never made it to Michael's today. But my dh said we can go tomorrow. We ended up going to the grocery store and then we went to my in laws for my mil bday. It was a very nice get together. It was a very nice day for gilbert because he got to see eli and talk to him a bit. We are going tomorrow downtown to the courthouse to talk to some people and hopefully get things going. I did do some scrapping and I want to post a few lo that I did. I am not going to post them all. One I did of eli & gil it is very cute, on is of my mil on last halloween and the last one is of ralphie's graduation pic. I really like how these turned out. I am really doing good about going thru my stash and using it up. I have really been trying not to buy new items because I want to try to decrease what I have. I am also waiting for my new cartridge to come and because I know how i am I know that I will be using my cricut alot more. In fact tomorrow I am going to be playing with my cricut I want to make several flowers from my scraps so I will already have them cut out and ready to use when I want to. But since I am going to Michaels tomorrow if I find a deal well..... yep that's right I am gonna have to buy it--hehe but it's ok. Well gonna go gotta get some sleep. Nighty night.

yeah it let me upload it. anyway this is marina when she was smaller out in front yard. I love this pic of her--she is such a beautiful child. If possible tomorrow I will post the mother's day cards that I made today. til tomorrow.

well it is about 1130 and I am trying to upload my latest lo but no such luck not sure why the computer is taking so long it is only letting me upload 1-2 lo's at a time. Today was a fun day, gil and I spend the day together with the girls. We went and had lunch and then we went to target. I got a few items in the dollar bin area and actually did a lo with all of those items to meet a challenge on sb.com that is a lo for only dollar store items. I think it came out rather well. I really liked the colors I bought some extra pp and stickers that I am hoping to use for another lo. I also got a border punch--it is actually one that I had been wanting. Ooops I almost forgot I got a new cricut cartridge that I ordered online. I am going to go to Michales tomorrow and the dollar store. It is my mil bday and we are going over there for dinner. I am going to try to find a gift for her--marina already made her a magnet it was a little craft set that we bought her today, there were four magnets in the kit so 1-for granny and 1-for my mil. I am sure they will love it because Marina did it. Anyway let's see what else happened. Oh yeah gil shaved his gotee---YEAH I love him without it he looks so sexy--with thhat bald head of his and all--hehehe. I think that is it for now I am going to keep trying to post tonight if the computer let's me then I will post my dollar store lo--hope everyone has a great day will back ontomorrow--good night!!

today or rather tonight!!

well it is about 1:27 at night and I am finally able to blog for awhile. Today was a pleasant day I did have to work but it wasn't too bad. We made lunch at work today and Jayce made his tator tot casserol omg it is soooo good but soooo bad for me--ah it's ok though Gilbert loves me just the way I am. I got some scrapping done when I got home gil watched the girls and cooked dinner so I had some time to myself. I got 5 mother's day cards done and 3 lo's. I am so excited tomorrow Kim and I are going virtual scrap together. I was having a bad day for awhile over some things I know I no control over but with the help of my friends and gil I am going to be ok. Plus Gil encouraged me to buy a new cartridge for my cricut--and hey shopping always helps me to feel better especially since I didn't have any chocolate around--hehehe. While I was scrapping me are looked dark and ralphie said," mom do you want my lamp from my room so you can see better?" how lucky am I my boy is thinking about his mom--gosh did that lamp make a difference didn't realize how dark it really was til he brought it over. That was a real eye opener if you know what I mean--well it is getting late and gil wants me to go lay down with him and snuggle--he is a big snuggler! so everyone have a good rest of the night sweet dreams and god bless you--will be back tomorrow and hopefully a chance to post some lo's --yeah! nighty night!

NSBD

Wow I had so much fun today even though I was at work. It was fun to do that layout at work and use only what was around me--I appreciate everyone's comments. I am working on a lo that I will hopefully post tomorrow if not the next day. I haven't been on here much but I am making myself a challenge to be sure to post here more often. I really miss this place. Anyway I have really been trying to work outside my box and try different techniques. Right now I am into distressing gosh I love it it is so much fun--and it looks so cool. I have been messing around with distressing inks but still need to work on it a bit but I will continue that I really like it. Also I finally got my cricut and my xyrons for my cricut. I have been trying to use up alot of my supplies before I really use my cricut because I find that I keep using it and then just end up with more stuff--not that that's a bad thing cuz it isn't. Also things have been going great with me and gil we are really happy right now. The kids are doing good too. Gaby is getting ready to go see her dad and alyssa and marina are getting big. I will post my newest layouts soon. Well gotta go will be back tomorrow. Have a wonderful what's left of NSBD!! yeah !!

Tired

Well it has been awhile since I have been onhere but I am going to make it a point to come on here a little more often . i miss posting on here. This is my therapy it is like a private journal of some sort--. I work againtomorrow and it will be my third 12hr shift in a row. Most of the time it is not so bad but we have been busy. The kids have been good--alyssa is really starting to show her little attitude. Marina just had her 5th birthday party it was a transformer theme everybody was laughing. I will post some pics soon--my camera broke and well gotta figuere out what I am gonna do. Well I will be back in a day or so and update everyone and post some of my fav lo's that I have done recently. Hope everyone has a blessed sunday. Praise God!!

well it is spring break for me--so far it has not been a real break. I found out my washing machine has a leak in the door and water got all over the floor. Today I have been home all day waiting for the repair guy to come. I wanted to sit and get in alittle scrapping but my girls had other ideas. So far we have been here watching gigi god's little princess movie--very nice for my girls but I can't seem to get into the movie itself. I am a little distracted. I need to get some laundry done but I cant need to do some scrappin but i cant need to eat some chocolate cant but i shouldnt (hehehe) well let me try to get something done today--hope everyone has a blessed day.
