Garth.. you ARE foxy!~

The last few weeks over at Crazy 8's we've been playing Top 100 Classic Rock Bingo and today I pulled a Jimi Hendrix out and decided to use this video as a clue. Waynes World rocks and I think Dana Carvey is even more brilliant than Mike Myers in it.. but thats just me. He is soo cute! I love when he gets so excited that his glasses need adjustments. hahaa I hope that this brings back good memories for you as it did me and the girls on the forum!
Have a great Labor Day weekend! :)

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my Dads 70th Birthday!!! I called him this morning at 9am and he was climbing down off a roof that he and my brother had just put on last week. He was doing some finish work. I am amazed at the umph this guy has. He has taken a beatin' but keeps on tickin'. So while I had him on the phone told him that I needed him to pick a number so that Id have a winner for my contest but he picked 38. hahaaa. What a dork! Sooo. I will put all the names in a hat tonight and draw when I get home!!!
Have a great Birthday Dad-see you this weekend! {Soo excited to go back home!}
Have a good Monday ya'll! :)

Assortment of Cards~

Here are the cards I made for the Assorted Card Swap over at Crazy 8's. I was to make Get Well Cards. I love how they turned out and finally used the *inchie* technique.. lets just say it was a lot of work, but well worth it!

In other news~ Im doing good, thanks for thinking of me.. just had a little rough spot.

also.. ironically....today Todd and I celebrated our 4th Wedding Anniversary.. woot! ;)

A ways to go yet~

Well.. Im almost done with my blog tweaks.. I just need to add a bunch more links yet. Im not sure Im liking everything on the right side when it used to be on the right. We'll see. It really shouldnt matter to me since the blog is ultimately for you the reader.

Anyway...
On to other things. Im having a rough week. My personal life which is normally happy has turned sad and pathetic and I just dont know how to fix it.. or if it will just iron itself out. I think Im going to turn to God once again and pray for strength.. I feel like Ive asked for so much and been given so much that I dont deserve any more favors, but I really would like to hold this together. Also lately I have not wanted to scrapbook, read about scrapbooking, participate in forums or anything. I just want to dissolve myself in non-important things and sit on the couch. I have no motivation and no motivation around me either.

I have definitely came away in this life with one thought.. one piece of advise. Do NOT ever ever get married. It is something wayyyy easy to get into and wayyyy harder to get out of. Id rather be alone than be miserable in a relationship that does not have 2 working partners. and so call me weak for not wanting to work things out.. but remember it takes TWO.. it always did and it always will.

One last thing.. Id love to give a shout out to my Mom... she is going to be SIXTY yup thats right the big 6-0 on Monday the 18th. I sooo wish I could see her and be with her, but I just cant.. so I wrote her a letter disclosing just 60 of the reasons why I love her so much. I thought it was going to be hard coming up with 60 things, but found out it really was quite easy and I could have went on and on. She is a special person, we have a special relationship and she is my best friend. So Happy Birthday Mom... *cheers* ;)

Under Construction~

Excuse me while I try to reconstruct my blog... stay tuned.

I heart Heart~

OMGOSH.. I never realized just how hot Ann Wilson is !!!... she gets a lot of fluff from the public regarding her weight.. but my goodeness is she ever beautiful and man can she belt out the tunes!! I have always loved HEART and thanks to Evil Beet Gossip today I was reminded about how much!

Best Friends~

....and so this is what makes it worth all the diapers, terrible twos and threes, the uncoordinated years, the backtalks, the teen years, the first time driver and dates...Best Friends... Preston-19 and Hunter-3!!!!
