Ch-Ch-CHANGE

Apparently there are some trifling women in the world (you know who you are) that can't seem to keep themselves out of my business and can't refrain from causing troubles so I'm moving my blog where they can't find it. Go find something else to create your drama! This song is for you!

Found my song for remembering!!

It took a little while but I found a song that I like and I put it on here to help us all remember those VA Tech victims and their families! Hope you enjoy it!

Thursday it is...........

It's Sunday!!

I love when it's Sunday and I'm not at work! Sundays are the best days! You have some fabulous new product releases at Designer Digitals and Gina Miller Designs, I do have to admit that my Pay Pal probably cries on Sunday. I've done really good lately though, I'm trying hard to stay on a strict budget and to not spend much so I've really been restricting myself. There's one thing that NEVER passes me by though, I have to have them, those silly little grab bags! I don't know what it is, maybe it's the mystery but I have to have them! I bought four of them at My Digital Muse this weekend and then another from Sausan Designs. They were all just chock full of goodies so you need to grab them up while you can!

There's another thing I love about Sundays.................dinner at Granny's house! We still meet out there with the family on Sundays for everyone to enjoy a good meal! I know I missed out big last week while I was working, bet there was tons of family and tons of food, I hate that I missed it but duty called. I look forward to it every week that I'm off. It might be raining outside and looking yucky but I know that I'm going to get an awesome home cooked meal and spend some time with people I love. There's one little girl there every week that I just adore and I love to watch her, she's so funny and adorable to boot! She used to ham it up for my camera but now she's acting all camera shy so I haven't taken any good pics of her lately. Maybe this week she'll cooperate! I know this tradition won't last forever, I'm guessing a couple more years, and then we'll all split up and about. As much as I would love to see it happen, I know my grandparents can't live forever :(

I've been hard at work today trying to get a mini album done, this is one for sale, in quick page format and I'm happy with it so far but still have a lot of work left to do :) I'll be sure to share it here when I'll all done with it and it's available for purchase. I've also been creating a few layouts this week and wanted to share those with you, as always there's a link to the layout in my DST gallery if you want to see the full credits :)

















I've also started working on a brag book for my mother-in-law for Christmas but I think if I get in done before Mothers Day she might just get it then! I've been using Paula Duncan and Zoe Pearn's Two Scoops kit called Earthborn over at Sweet Shoppe Designs for it. I just love the colors on this kit and love playing with it! I know my mil will love it! She loves when I make things for her :) Here's a quick share of the cover and one of the pages for ya:







Well now that's all I've got for ya! I know I probably bored you to death with it, LOL, but hopefully you found some inspiration in there somewhere! Thanks for peeking and I'll check in later! ((HUGS))

Sheesh, next time I'll try to wait a month to blog.......

I have got to find some way to become "good" at blogging again! I used to be great at it, used to do it regularly, post funnies, post layouts, etc... and now I'm horrible about it. Today you're getting a hodge podge of everything: funnies, layouts, secret toots, and probably a little whining too, LOL!

********************************

Easter Weekend (here's that whining I promised you):

I have to work all weekend long including Sunday :( That really stinks! Every year that I have worked at this hospital I have worked on Easter Sunday. I honestly hate missing out on the holidays with Jacob but someone has to be there at the hospital and I guess I'm the designated Easter nurse, LOL. Maybe I should wear ears and a tail, I'm sure that would be real cute, hehehe. I do have to say that I have also never worked a Christmas day since I started at that hospital so I will take that any day over Easter :) I know that Jacob would much rather have me here on Christmas than Easter and I can deal with another weekend at work, I'm hoping it's a easy weekend for me.

********************************

NEVER CHOKE IN A SOUTHERN RESTAURANT (a lil' funny for ya):

Two big rednecks walk into a restaurant. After ordering their cornbread, beans and taters, they talk about the latest addition to their junkyard business.

Suddenly a woman at a nearby table, who is eating country ham, begins to cough. After several seconds it becomes apparent that she is in real distress.

One of the hillbillies looks at her and says "Kin youins swallar?" The woman shakes her head no.

"Kin youins breathe?" The womans' lips begins to turn blue and she shakes her head no.

The redneck walks over to the woman, lifts up the back of her dress, yanks down her drawers and quickly gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue.

The woman is so shocked that she has a violent coughing spasm and the obstruction flies out of her mouth. As she begins to breathe again, the hillbilly walks slowly back to the eatin' bar.

His partner says, "Ya know, I'd heerd of that there 'Hind Lick Maneuver' but I ain't never seed nobody do it."

************************************

That one makes me giggle every time I read it, LOL!! So cute!!

******************************************

Okay, time for those last two funnies and then I'm outta here, these two are a tad more "adult" so you can skip em if that's not for you :)

Who is Jack Schitt?

For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt? We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt!'

Well, thanks to my genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way.

Jack Schitt is the only son of Awe Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack.

In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religious couple produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt.

Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout. After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt Sherlock.

Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt, and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt. Two of the other six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens nuptials. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Horse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt.

Now when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt,' you can correct them.

Sincerely, Crock O. Schitt

Okay, that's it boys and girls, I know it was long but what do you expect when I've been gone this long? Hehehehe, hopefully next time will be sooner and shorter :)

Change of Pace..........

Okay, I had to change that song down there in the corner, Tom was a little slow for me right now, need something more upbeat something to get me moving and Fergie can always do that. Have you heard this whole album? Girl has a lot of different genres of music on that album, I'm always in awe of the artists that can incorporate so many different genres onto one album and pull it off as well as she does. That video is pretty funny too if you watch. I don't remember too many little boys in my school growing up that could shake it as well as the one in this video!

My DSL here is giving me fits! There are so many sites that I can't get in to that I need to see. Earthlink for one! I can't check my personal e-mail, I can't check the e-mails from the ScrapForums CT call and I can't do anything on my website that I need to, it sucks! I also can't get into my e-mail account at ScrapForums. I have one there that I talk back and forth with all the sponsors on and I'm hoping there's nothing important in it. I called my DSL provider, Embarq, and they say that it must be a problem with those sites and that they know that the Earthlink servers are down but that's not true because other people I know are getting into those sites, including Earthlink. Whatever it is, they better get it fixed soon, I have business to take care of.

**************

I was noticing yesterday at DigiShopTalk how so many people did such cute things for St. Patty's Day and I'm feeling kinda bad now that I didn't. I've had a lot going on and I didn't even have time to stop and think about doing some of the stuff they did. It was just so cute! I know Jacob would have loved it and knowing my luck he'll probably be too old next year to enjoy it. He still "believes" in a lot of things right now.

**************

Do you have any family traditions? Someone was telling me today how lucky I was that our family has this Sunday tradition of having a big family dinner out at my grandmothers house. I guess I've sorta taken that for granted in the past, I know now everyone does it and I do know that I'm lucky! Not everyone shows up EVERY week but there's usually a nice lil crowd out there. We have just about everyone there for holidays though and it's not so cozy then, way too crowded!! But the Sunday dinners are just right, not too many people, some really great food and lots of funny conversations. I wish there were more kids Jacob's age though, the ones that are don't ever show up when we're there. He loves these two older cousins that show up every once in a while, he follows them everywhere they go and lucky for me they don't seem to mind, they actually sit down and play with him. He does play with his little cousin Sadie every week that we go, she lives right next door so we can always count on her!

**************

Alrighty, I've got to scat and try to get something done. I'm going to try and get in here this week and do a post for my designers and the products of theirs that I'm in love with now. I really need to do more posting on here, especially since some of them have me linked up on their blogs, eek! Hope you all have a great Sunday, what's left of it anyway, and have fun going back to the grind tomorrow!

Scrap Forums Digital CT Call........

Hey there!!

Just wanted to let you all know that Scrap Forums has a digital CT call up right now, it's a fabulous team to be on and we get some incredible sponsors, you can check out the info in this thread here.

I did some MAJOR revamping on my sketch site last night and I'm really happy with it. My intentions are to make it a great resource site for sketch and template lovers and I think the changes I did last night were imperative to make that happen. I alphabetized all the links lists which needed to have been done a long time ago. I also added a section with the names of digital template designers and where they sell at which will definitely come in handy when you are looking for something specific from a designer. Hopefully I won't need to do any other updates real soon, that last night took forever!! I mean it was just nuts, my eyes hurt, my head hurt and I was ready to go to bed when I was done, LOL. I plan on making a new blinkie for it soon, maybe tonight and I'll be sure to share that when I'm done with it. If your name isn't on it and you want it there please be sure to e-mail me or comment here and let me know!

I have to make a quick toot here so I hope it doesn't smell up the place too bad. I've been doing the Guest CT thing for Vicki Stegall for about six weeks now and the other day she made me an official member of her team! WooHoo! Thanks Vicki! You have no idea how psyched I am to get to play with her awesome creations full-time! Here's the new blinkie that I get to sport now, isn't it hot?!



Nothing else major in my life right now. Jacob starts his basketball games next week, the first one is on my birthday and I'm super excited for it! He really enjoys it and I can't wait to see those lil kids playing on Monday!!

That's all for now folks, I'm drained and believe it or not I'm tired of looking at my computer today! Until next time!
