house on the hunt

So the past few days have busy for me. I have not had tome to open the new cartridge or look at my sbv purchase, let alone finish my album. Sis has been house hunting pretty hard mostly only taking food breaks for now. I spent the better part of yesterday at the courthouse trying to get licences for my vehicle. No I still don't have them (just one more form to go!) and yes they expired today but the good news is they inspected the vehicle so I don't need to take it back down town. So as I type I wait for the phone to ring and the faxing to begin, I blog. We had dinner at the El Maz last night and again I loved it and so Did Clipie . We did see Pastor Jamie while we were there. And after the food I introduced sis to the Dollar Tree. OK so today's question is yes acrylic stamps show do you store the larger sheets? I know about the base ball book and the cd cases but what do you store your larger sheet acrylics in?

I now return

Ok so after a small mini vacation I'm back. My days have been full and my brain and the rest of my body are happy and tired so forgive all my usual colorful and creative usage of the English language and remember it's 12:37 am Saturday night. All start with today and if I can think back a couple of days I'll tell you those adventures as well. We went to Bonnie today and yes it was absolute fun. I did learn how to emboss and I don't know, I must have discovered some other cool technique but it escapes me at the moment. We made an album of techniques, each page features a different technique. No I did not finish mine I ditched it for great conversations. Me talk? could you imagine it? However I will say I did not apply my self as usual. I messed up part of it when my flower cutting went wonky. I'm also ashamed to say I did not like some of the other pages (just 2) so....... I have an unfinished album and quite a few great ideals and a great day in my pocket. Afterward

today

Like everyone else I have days that are full. So with that thought I think we all need a break for a few..... So get ready for another VACATION This vacation is free I'm going to take you to the east coast Martha's Vineyard link to your vacation is http://mvol.com/webcamsouthbeach/

It's so nice to see Mr Sunshine again! It's not so nice to keep having the same darn pesky telemarketer call at 7:30 in the freaking morning again and again. I just may turn off my phone at night and I'm not joking(its currently off the hook fyi ). Who do they think they are and, why in the world do they keep asking me if I'm Philipino? (sp?) Do I sound Philipino? Do I sound like a Yankee with southern roots, maybe, that's a possibility but the Philipino mmmmm no. Now that I have vented my anger I can return to my regular Scrap Happy Girl self. I have no scrap projects in the works and I also do not have any for show and tell. As of late I have been the slacker scrapper (except for this past weekend) and the slacker e-mail checker. I know not grammatically correct however I am the slacker none the less. I really don't have anything interesting to say other than I loved the movie "The Ten Things I Hate About You" and I loved his song "

ramblings

You know your no longer young when they release Oscar nominations and you only know three of the total nominees. To top that off they are all of the older set like Tommy Lee Jones, Johnny Depp who is not old, but not young either, and an old lady who's name you cant remember at the moment. When is it that you become older? Is it the moment you quit going to the movies? Or is it the moment when you watch tv have a buagillion channels to choose from and find yourself watching re runs of your favorite child hood show like The Fresh Prince of Bell Air, just joking irl it's Silvers Spoons. When was the last time I went to a movie ? Please don't snicker it was to see the Princess Diary's 2, yep no lie. And before that ? It was the second Star Wars in the prequel series. I do know that since Christmas we have been trying to go see National Treasure 2 but still have not made the total effort to get to the theatre. If we don't I'll probably get another chance when t

I'm now back to my regular blogging

OK so seeing that I have about three programs on my computer today's work is clearly cut out for me. oh the joys of computer ownership . Yesterday was an interesting day I did hibernate in my jammies until late in the day then I found my self is a sea of people looking at the Henson homes. It was crazy , I never would have imagined that their would have been so many people. I also visited the Cracker Barrel and a working scrapper. Then did some errands around town. At target this week the white shelving is on sale. I'm sad to report they do not have much and it's mostly the larger piece's that are on sale. They seem to have a run on the maple color, not much in white. I wanted the white cube that was on sale (9 cubes in all) but as usual Target did not have white in stock. And me being me I bought the maple one and had to turn around (before I got home) and take it back. The Target girl did say they get a truck in m,w,f, so there is still hope they would get

ok I'm back

I'm back Rod cleared my hard drive and I gave everything up. E V E R Y T H I N G I have no ideal where to start at this point. I have two programs on my computer a virus protector and an Internet connection all else has been lost. My photos should be OK I generally copy all to disk and I'm pretty religious about it so I'm not worried about them its just other stuff. I will be changing my e-mail so I'll let you all know what that is when I get signed up for some new. For now its 1 am and it's off to bed for me, so I can crop with all of you tomorrow! blessings A

ode to the hacker

**** the hacker who invented the virus that is now on my computer. I have a virus that is making me nuts,I can not check my e-mail, I can not surf, without 4 or more popups coming up every time I go to another page. I also can not access the comment page on this blog. This post will half to do until until my virus is eradicated . Just fair warning do not open any e-mails from me. You never know what these stupid virus things can do or what in all they effect. I'll announce on the blog when everything is fine again, then take my e-mails, until then ignore them, like I said you just never know. I'm signing off now for a while or until Clipe can fix the thing cause it's way out of my control at this point and don't bother sending me an e-mail cause I can't read it. I'm currently running the computer in safe mode so posting is a huge pain I'll be at the crop tomorrow about 5 and bring some type of food I have no ideal what I'm bringing at this point,

I need some rest

Man I tell you I've been so busy the past few days, hardly anytime to do the fun stuff like blog. I had an aunt pass away, one who I had only met once or twice that I can barely if truthfully remember. And this morning Donna my cousin who is very close to my heart is having surgery for cancer removal. It's very serious and she was told she my not make it through it. So If you have some time say a prayer for her, she is a sweetie. Yesterday I barely had time to breathe and ww went well except they keep taking points away from me. I know that's good thing. I have no ideal if my tea experiment is going well or not. I'll let you know in 2 weeks, I seem to be on a three week cycle when it comes to weight loss.I Also picked up a great ideal about the watter an older lady suggested I get a very small juice glass and before I have a glass of tea, drink the juice glass full of watter, so I may try it. And yesterday was my knitting day as well and it was good. I'm knitting my

Hey bidder bidder

I hope everyone had a great weekend I did We were alone again this weekend! Saturday we went to an auction. I'm so sorry I did not take pictures of this. I know trivial to some of you but this was my very first auction and yes I saved the number. I'm a kid at heart and kids love adventure so this was one for me. We got a number because Clipie intended to bid on a pool table #608. So we browsed around looking over everything and decided on how much to bid for the items we wanted, then just stood there until it began. I'm sure this was not your ordinary auction cause they were flipping burgers and selling them, I would say well over 100 people were there so it was pretty large. When the auction first began I could not tell what the man was saying ,it truly sounded like gibberish. It took a while but I did figure it out. There were mass of farmer type men, big tall burly men who were in groups, and it made me feel short and small : ) and as for women there were so many decorat

dear kodak your g6 is not desirable

Whew what a day yesterday, every time I went to blog a thunder storm would pass over. I'm jittery with the thunder and lightning my Mothers home has been struck not once, not twice but three times! So I know the effects of a lightning strike. Naturally the first thing I did was unplug my cricuts (they are not on surge protectors most everything else is). I hope none of you or your family's had any damage yesterday it was a bit intense out here at my place mostly with the rolling creepy thunder. In other news I'm very sad and mad at the Kodak company. I have a portable printer that I simply love. I like Kodak because of it's layering process over the other brands. My printer broke back in the fall or rather I broke it cause it was not working properly. I have looked forward to getting a new one and having my portable printer back up and running. That was just a dreamland world where I thought that all things Kodak were interchangeable NOT. The new printer is not compati

blame it on the angel food cake

Oh my goodness Terri's Angel food cake was like eating spun silky cotton candy Clipie ate 1/2 of the cake yesterday. And yes it was good I just did not eat 1/2 the cake! So Thanks for the wonderful fluffiness. It was great to See Sylvia ( sp ?), Barb, and Lisa at the crop, I was surprised and glad to know they were all doing great. Calender project : Today I'm beginning to make a 08 scrappy calender. One 12x12 page for every month and no pictures on it at this point.

7:30 In the MORNING

For the past two mornings at 7:30 a telemarketer has called. This morning on my way out of the house (I was searching for the paper ....... that's another story) the phone rang and I answered cause who calls tat early in the morning? It's been my experience that the only important calls I get that early are Clipie on break or my mom with family news. And this particular morning Clipe was in bed so I'm thinking something is wrong when I answer the phone. Do you want to buy a wireless phone.....? (he asked) my retort How about not calling on a Sunday morning at 7:30! Then I hung up Who or what company thinks they can sell me anything on the phone at 7:30 AM. Would you not think this was simple logic? Who would not find this extremely irritating? Most of you who read my blog have figure out that I love a quiet morning but I know nobody I know 1. buys things from telemarketers. And 2. wants them to call that early. IF you have read the blog for any length I'm sure yo

It sorta looks like snow......

Image
It's Live from frost land aka my backyard As you can see things are frosty here I'm sure where ever you are things are frosty. I just so want that little bit of white but for now this must do. And the 7.9 oh yeah that's temp. I never expect it to get this cold here below the mason Dixon line. It is truly shocking when just in july and August ago we were 107. What a swing in weather we go from drought to extreme cold with no snow and if it's going to be cold (in my only lonely opinion) their should be benefits like a snow that melts away quickly. I must report that Clipe man has been Incredibly nice over the holidays. Since he had been getting in to trouble last year I feel I must give him a fair shake and say we had a very nice Christmas break together. So much so that I really did miss him when he went back to work yesterday. It was so quiet in the house I could hardly stand it. And on top of it all I miss my Mom and Dad. Crop Bak what do you want us to bring? Same

busy as a bee

Wow I'm glad to back to my regular schedule at home. I'm a bit tired who am I joking I'm exhausted. With a to do list that would impress mostly anyone on the plant. One comforting thought is that other people do this to just like me and survive. I assure you none of my domestic chores are glamorous or all that fun or worth talking about at the moment. News well I made a great discovery while I was home I discovered Irish Breakfast Tea. Need a jolt in the mornings? Wow this stuff will knock your socks off. Good morning Irish people! Who needs coffee when you have the equivalent to jolt in your cup. My final designer project is up and posted on the bitten by the bug site and by the way thanks for putting up with my little burst of "look at me, look at me" this past month. Sometimes feel like I should reward you all with putting up with me. link http://regina-bittenbythebug.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html I still have not had a chance to play with my design stud
