Make a Wish.....

I 'wish' I could keep up with this blog better! I have been busy getting ready for our move. It is a good thing I don't have to pack it all, I don't know how I could possibly do it! All I have to do is get everything in order. Not that my house is "out of order" but...I am purging. Getting rid of all the stuff we have carried across the country with us that we really don't need. Mostly it comes down to paper. I think I have a full rainforest worth of paper in my house. It can be overwhelming to go through paper, as most everyone knows, so the way I do it is to put on a movie or show that I like and just sit and sort. I have a big trash can, a shredder, and scissors. If it has personal stuff on it, it gets shredded. If it is a keeper, I sort it into the pile it needs to be in to file it later.
I have TONS of magazines! Mostly scrapbooking, home decor, and craft. I quickly leaf through each magazine and cut out the pages I want to keep. Out of about 50 magazines, there were only about 20 pages that I kept. Talk about a waste of money! I am going to stop buying magazines! I now have a big box of scrapping magazines to pass along to someone else. If you are local and you want some, let me know. The box is too big to ship, sorry!
I wanted to share this totally adorable card that Shari made me for my 40th birthday. She is SO very creative! I love the glittery stems on here. Just the right touch of bling.
Hope you all are enjoying your summer!

Birthday blog candy!

In honor of my birthday, I am offering another package of blog candy! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite thing about getting older. :o) The candy includes a package of cardstock, metal edge tags, sanding block, cool metal border stickers, silver gel pen, and a set of mini gift cards stamped by yours truly. For some reason, my 'rechargeable batteries' decided not to 'recharge' anymore. I am quite distraught about that. I planned to share these pictures a couple of days ago, but....I had to wait til I bought some new batteries. I have to say tho, I was really afraid I had broken my camera! I'm glad it is just the batteries! I borrowed my friend's Precious stamp set the other day and have been having fun with it! I made this card using a square card base of chocolate chip (5-12" square). I stamped the swirlies in blue bayou onto a large piece of whisper white and onto a smaller piece. I cut out a butterfly and stuck i...

Bradley

Sunday, my best friend died. My sweetheart of 20 years died suddenly from diabetes. We didn't know he had diabetes. It came quick and took him from me. Brad was more than just my husband, he was my best friend. I relied so very much on his strength to guide me and my children through this life. I admit I feel a bit lost without him, already. I had planned on much, much more time with him. Brad and I met on January 28th, 1989. We were both at a nightclub for under age night with our friends that had dragged us there. We were both ready to leave when we were talked into one more dance. That dance changed our lives. We hit it off right away and danced the rest of the night. In face, we were together from then on. I remember that after that night, I waited all day for his call. It was love right away for me. I felt something I had never felt before and knew that he was the one for me. We dated for six months before Brad went to Texas to go to school. We talked a lot on the phone, and I...

Soccer, projects and....Blog Candy!!

Okay, I know I promised to post some blog candy a couple days ago but, what was I thinking? The weekend has become the crazy part of my week! We have entered the World of Soccer. All you soccer moms out there will totally know what I am talking about. We are still in the little leagues of it, only one practice a week and one game. Per child of course....I'm glad my son decided he didn't want to play. Two kids is enough! It was a beautiful weekend tho. The weather was awesome. The sun got bright during the afternoon game, but every few minutes it would rain so, it kept us nice an comfy. Only in Florida can you have rain on a sunny day. It is one of the wonders of the world. I put together a few goodies for Blog Candy today. I have been having way too much fun making stuff with coasters and patterned paper lately. Stampin' Up! has made it even easier to use these two items together by offering the Tombow Liquid Adhesive. If you haven't used it, you've got to! It is aw...
