Missing in action...Again

Well its been two months since I posted and I don't feel guilty at all. Glad to say I was living life...I enjoyed Christmas to the fullest, no worries, the lest amount of stress I have experienced in a long time.In January I decided what really made me excited enough to wanna get out of bed...and it's not Cisco. So I'm in the process of making that happen, more about that later. I've been more creative lately. Having to much fun at my craft parties...thanks to my friends. My Health is pretty good right now, minimal pain, Yay! I can almost go in any clothing store and shop, again Yay! 20-30 more pounds and a little toning, I should be a size 10-12, I'm a 14-16-18 now, I had gotten up to a size 26. I am getting ready for the red, white and pink holiday on Monday. I plan to give way some goodies I've seen on some of the cutest blogs, they have great ideas. I'm acting like June Clever today... got up early made breakfast for the family, started a load of laundry, pull my stove out and cleaned that area everyone tries to forget about.I must have been out of my mind...to late it" done. Last but not lest, I posted on my blog by 11:00 AM. WOW Hope your day is as good as mine...

My first blog hop!

I've started a new Photography class, this will me my last class for 2010. I always love December Daily with Ali Ewards and Journal Your Christmas With Shimelle .

Finding the holiday joy fits in perfect for saving my holiday memories this year

Wishing a Stress-Free Thanksgiving to All

As I get ready for thanksgiving I always SAY this year will be stress-free, and somehow it never is… but this year it will be just that stress -free. I planned my menu weeks ago, low key everyone in the family picked one dish. I will be asking for help this year…I usually just want company, while I do all the work. The ole man is doing the grocery shopping, my daughter will be my asst. chief, and my son will as always provide the holiday cheer along with entertainment.


I say this to urge you to cut down on your stress this weekend and give thanks for your many blessing…and most of all enjoy your family.


P.S. don’t get stampeded Black Friday shopping !

Getting ready for 2011

I have been wanting to make some changes to my blog, and I have started. Im starting a new one for my crafts - Paper....Scissors...Fabric...and keeping this for personal stuff. I have wanted to start a blog for crafting but I was afraid, well I'm not anymore... the worst thing that could happen is that no one will read it...I can live with that. I"ll probably shut down shutter ramblings cause... well... I never post on it...
I thought about paying to have my blogs done but since I'm trying to change my spending habits, I'll save that money for Christmas...
so....anyway pardon my dust...
