STAY TUNED!!! NEW PICTURES COMING SOON!

I will be posting some new creations later today or tomorrow.  I have a couple of new creations.  I'm also working on lots of new creations and patterns.  I HAVE to work on more than one creation at a time.  I think (I KNOW) IT WOULD SCARE ME if I worked on one thing and finished it from beginning to end before I started on another creation. LOL!! Sound like you?????  I know lots of artist that are the same way.

Everyone have a FANTASTIC DAY and I WILL, I PROMISE!! a picture or two will be up later this evening or tomorrow.  We have to go out today and I'm not sure when I will be able to take pictures today.  Check Back later tonight OR Tomorrow and see pictures.

HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEKEND!

NEW DAY - NEW CREATIONS - FRIEND FROM OUT OF TOWN

NEW DAY - It was cloudy and rainy this morning.  NOW the sun is shinning bright.  Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day.  Rained ALOT the past couple of days.  Nice to see Sunshine again.  Although we REALLY REALLY REALLY NEEDED THE RAIN. We could use more since we are still below normal rain fall here.  The lakes are still down and need more rain. 

NEW CREATIONS -  Well, I'm still working on my new creations.  Thought I would finish one at a time BUT NOT ME!!! I HAVE to work on several things at a time.   Hopefully I'll have one finished soon and show a picture.  I have my Valentine Swap Partners creations finished and almost ready to mail out.  MMMMMMM! I still have time before I have to mail it out SOOoooooooo! who knows I might have to add something else if it tells me to.  You know that little or I should say that BIG VOICE in our Creative Heads??????  Well, it's talking to me. LOL LOL!!  

I have to LAUGH because some people that read this might think I'm (we) are nuts. ROFL ROFL!!!
OUR CREATIVE MINDS WORK ALIKE!!  I'M SURE!!

FRIEND FROM OUT OF TOWN - We have a friend from out of town that is visiting with his family.  My hubby is going to pick him up and spend the day out and then they both will come to our house and we will spend time here and go out to supper.  Wish his WIFE and GRANDSON had come with him.  MISS THEM!!!  Maybe next time. RIGHT MAURINE???????????  :-) LUV U

Everyone Have A Creative Day ------- I AM      P.S. I will post some pictures of some of my new creations when finished.  Maybe tomorrow I will post a picture.  I do have something finished. :-)

NO JURY DUTY!!!!

Went to the court house this morning.  Sit with lots and lots of people waiting to hear if we had to sit on a jury. :-)    Waited almost an hour and then the list  of 20 was read of who was picked.  I was sitting there saying to myself they picked me I know they did.  BUT THEY DIDN'T!!!  WOOOHOOO!!!  They told all of us that was left, we could go home we don't have jury duty.  We won't get another jury summons for 3 years. WOOOOHOOOO!!!   Made me happy.   I know someone has to sit on the jury but I'd rather not because I'm not sure I could say someone was guilty or not guilty.  There's been to many guilty that got off and to many not guilty that had to go to jail.    I know someone has to be on the jury and pass judgement on them.  I really don't think I could because if I helped find someone guilty and years later found out they weren't guilty.....That would haunt me.  I know it would.   I know we are only human and I have way to many feeling about this.  I'm glad I wasn't picked.

Now back to my dolls and other creations.

I might have to go for jury duty tomorrow.  I have to call this evening to see if my number has been picked. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm!!

ALMOST FINISHED MY VALENTINES AND VALENTINE SWAP ITEMS.

I still have a few more Valentine swap items to finish and then I'm finished and ready to mail to my swap partner when she gets ready to mail.  I'm in no hurry SO, NO PRESSURE CHRIS. :-)

I am working on some NEW CREATIONS that I'm really excited about.  Will go out and get some more supplies that I DON'T HAVE THAT I NEED.  One would think I would have what I need with all the supplies I have. ROFL ROFL!!!  That's always the way; never have everything we need. :-)

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, MICHAEL'S, HOBBY LOBBY, JOANN'S AND BARNS & NOBLE HERE I COME TOMORROW.  I KNOW Y'ALL WANT MY MONEY!! :-) AND I WANT TO GIVE IT TO YA!!!!. :-)

I still have to renew my doll magazines.  BAD BAD BAD!! Just way to much has been going on around here plus hubby is sick with allergies.  The specialist told him we live in #1 place for allergies.  I sure HOPE NOT!!! Seems like it since we've been here.  I know had lots of allergies when the cedar blows down here.  I guess Las Vegas wasn't to bad BUT DID HAVE allergies there also.  Can't get away from allergies no matter where you go.  They follow us. LOL LOL!!!
MORE LATER!

SUNDAY & SHOPPING


Meet ETHAN my grandson.  He's 4 and cute as a button and smart. He was eating when I took his picture. He had been swimming.  He looks just like his daddy when his daddy was that age. I'll have to dig out some old pictures of his daddy at that age and post them together. 

Later today we are going to the outdooor flea market.  I don't think they call it flea market but not sure what the name of it is.  I hope I can find an old large trunk to sit at the foot of our bed.  Wish I had the ones that was in our family. Maybe I should quiz some of the older family members and see if they know what happened to them.  MMMMmmmmm! Good Thought. :-) 

I'm still working on Valentine Swap stuff for my partner that Vivian is hosting.  I thought I would have everything finished by last night BUT we went out yesterday and last night SO I didn't finish everything. I did stay up til midnight working on some things.  Tomorrow I will finish everything.  Then I will go back to working on the new dolls, patterns and art I've been working on. 

Everyone Have A Great Day !
Luv & Hugs,

EVERYONE HAVE A FANTASTIC FUN WEEKEND!!

I'm going to finish my Valentine Swap I'm doing from Vivian's blog.  I am almost finished creating Valentine creations for my Valentine Swap Partner.  Can't show what I made until my Valentine Swap Partner receives her package.  Closer to Valentine's Day I will mail it to her and then when she opens the box, I will post pictures on my blog of what I sent her.  Have FUN WITH THIS SWAP.

No, the Black and White Pin isn't part of the Valentine Swap. :-)
Night All and Have A Wonderful Fun Creative Weekend!!!!

FRIDAY 13th

HAPPY FRIDAY THE 13th!!   I love Friday 13th and not scared of it at all.  The number 13 is GOOD! and even better when it falls on Friday.  NO BAD LUCK AT ALL!  LUCKY NUMBER 13. 

Everyone have a wonderful fun creating day.  I'm going to work on several dolls and patterns and probably other things as well.

It's on the cool side here but going to warm up.  I'm so glad we haven't had any snow yet.  We have had some rain the past couple of days but today the sun is shinning.

MY WEIGHT WATCHERS WEIGH IN DAY!!! THIS WEEK 1/11/2012

I went to my Weight Watchers meeting this morning. I have been BAD.  I haven't been to a meeting in 3 weeks.  I GAINED 2 POUNDS!!  Not bad but NOT GOOD either.  Sooooooooo now I get back on track starting today.  Next Wed. is weigh in and meeting day.  I go once a week.  One would think with all the moving and packing and unpacking I have done in the past almost a year now I would have dropped lots of pounds.  MMMMMMMM!  Seems I can't keep my hands off the M&M's, POTATO CHIPS and other SWEETS!!  OH! and the YUMMY FOODS, EATING OUT is bad sometimes.    BUT TODAY I HAVE MADE MY MIND UP......I'M GOING TO STICK TO LOOSING MY WEIGHT AND REACH MY GOAL!!!  It'll take awhile but it will be worth it health wise and I can fit into some smaller clothing that is hanging in my closet. :-)   

I'M OFF TO A GOOD START AND AM GOING TO STICK TO IT!!!  I WILL POST EACH WEEK WHAT I LOOSE.  I DON'T PLAN ON GAINING!!!!!     Starting TODAY------I HAVE 25 lbs to loose.
I FIGURED IF I POST ON MY BLOG EVERY WEEK ABOUT GOING TO WEIGHT WATCHER AND HOW MUCH I LOOSE EACH WEEK; I WILL STICK TO MY GOAL.   EACH WEEK WILL TELL.  :-)

ROSES

These are roses from my rose bushes in Las Vegas THAT I LEFT BEHIND!!  I was looking through some pictures and there they were. :-) :-(   I really really loved all my rose bushes in Las Vegas.   Well, I have NONE in our yard here in Wylie, Texas.  BUT we are going to plant lots of ROSE BUSHES in a couple of months.  I sure hope they are as big and pretty as the ones we had in Las Vegas. They were really large and beautiful.  Really had wonderful scents.  ONLY TIME WILL TELL.  Hope we still have that green thumb we had in Las Vegas. LOL LOL!!!   Found the picture and it brought back lots of wonderful memories of all the beautiful scents of my rose bushes.  Hope whom ever has them now are taking care of them like we did. :-)
