things I always keep in my fridge

hung out with jeniece last night...and we did scrap a little....finished up one page of our day at the beach over my school break.... not much going on today...thought about trying to hit some school shoppin' again...it's been so much less stressful...cutting up the shopping instead of trying to finish it up all in one day!! Just plan on hanging with boo a little today...

Scrapbooking & Beyond fall 2009 issue

got my copy of the new issue of scrapbooking and beyond yesterday!! and check out page 77.....this page really has alot of meaning to me...and they did a beautiful job with it!! and I can't wait to show my brother...such a simple page can have so much to say....
getting this in the mail, made me realize how much I love the challenge of getting published, and how I haven't submitted anything in a long time...I really want to start submitting pages again.....Well off to work, then probably hang at jenieces tonight...I think we might actually scrap again....it's a miracle!

it's been along time since I added a page to the art journal......and it's a little weird to be adding pages about "dating" yikes...who would've thought? so I finished 2 pages...I love the freedom of journal pages...no rules...this 2nd one has lots of hidden journaling....but years from now should be some interesting info...about my first date after 23 years!! good times....yeah..you can imagine...how crazy that was....

so excited that project runway started back up last night, and was fun hanging out with jeniece...to watch like we used to....even though my fav girl went home last night, not that I loved her work, but I like the ones that keep things interesting!! Well off to school..got another anatomy test today..and it's a biggie!! Not much planned for the weekend....just hanging out!! maybe finish up a little more school shoppin'..........so It's not all coming up at once...we shall see!!

160 pounds lost

ohio

made a trip down to ohio to visit with Ed's side of the family, was kinda weird to pull up and see them all there...and not have ed with me...but it was good!! But for some weird reason...it just shows me how life goes on....whether we like it or not...great pic of all the grandkids except Tonee' who didn't go at the last minute.then we got all Eds brothers and sisters together...for a group shot!! Hard to believe I've known these people for 23 years.....crazy!!


so it was me and sommer all the way down...we did great with the help of the GPS!!

and then I actually scrapbooked too..this one for the design team at scrappy chic......pics with me and eds brother and his dad...

august 12 2009

a change of plans in my friday night.......pulled me into some quicky scrappin'..and was glad to get to pages done....that I don't hate.... hung with jeniece and we both got 2 pages done...which is pretty good progress..plus first time scrappin' at the new place...lots of mojo....

actually getting ready to head out the door to ohio...for the family visit!! hope for a beautiful...safe....memory filled weekend....!!

Monroe county Fair 2009

me and the girls spent the day at the fairIt was fun..the weather was perfect sunny but a nice breeze....we did the usual walked the buildings, ate junk and seen all the animals....Sommer got an airbrushed hat with her name on it...and me and tonee' picked out some new shades!! Looking forward to going back tonight...for the Jason Aldean concert with jeniece.....hopefully we don't get rained on....I know it's going to be crazy packed too...but I'm sure it will be an adventure!!

I scrapped!! wow....

I haven't touched my scrap stuff since coming home from Texas....but this morning...I thought I would dust if off!! and even though my scan isn't the greatest..'cause of my big beautiful button!! I kinda like it....and it shows off tonee's new do....after letting someone mess with her hair, she had to go and get it all cut off...to save it!! but she rocked it..and is cute as can be!!I also got the sweetest card in the mail yesterday from my grief group!!
just a thinking of you card.....full of comments...it makes me miss them like crazy.....haven't seem them since march....hope to get a chance to though soon!!but it really made my day!!

last night...helped the tacketts move...well don't know if I actually helped ...but I was there....ha,ha!! Gonna take a little adjusting to not having jeniece right down the road, she moved there only about 2 or 3 weeks before Ed passed away...and I kinda feel like that was for a reason....because I have leaned on her...alot these past 22 months....but I also believe that maybe the move is meant to be too...and it's good for her....and me as I still adjust to standing on my own... But the good thing is she will be back out here tomorrow night...cause we are going to see jason aldean...in Concert!! yeah....Okay I think I am actually going to do some house work....just a little bit!!! bye....
