Hola or Hello!
Today was a busy day. Had to make up for all that I didn't do yesterday. I got it all done....the bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and dining room cleaned. My books ready for my class tomorrow night, dinner ready for the crock pot and an ABC book for the admissions director done. I am tired. Oh, and my laundry....done! I feel accomplished, but I am also tired! We also went to my parents for our weekly dinner.
My husband and I made dinner last night. We had burgers on the George Foreman grill and seasoned fries. We have had this before. Nothing new. However, for whatever reason, my husband had a reaction to the fries. His eyes swelled shut, he had red blotches and his nose was continually running. He looked like he was in a street fight and lost!! I gave him Benadryl and that seemed to help last night. This morning when we woke for church, he still looked bad. I gave him more Benadryl. He stayed home and went back to bed, and I church. He pretty much had swollen eyes the whole day. I guess I won't be making those fries anymore!
My friend Patty has gone to Guatemala for 8 weeks. She is doing "mission" work. She has gone to Guatemala through Safe Passage (www.safepassage.com). She will be teaching children who in the easiest terms, live in Guatemala City's landfill. Sad, very sad. You can read about her travels here www.patguat.blogspot.com. I have been posting notes back to her...in SPANISH. Now, I only know the few words that everyone knows Hello, How are you, Goodbye.....I will one day learn to speak Spanish! So until then, I have been cheating and using the Google translator to send her messages. Funny!! OK I thought it was!!! If you get a chance and read her blog, can you leave her a comment. She is kind of homesick and I think a kind word here and there will help her adjust! She comes home on February 26.
I have done a little stamping. I will post pictures soon.....I start school tomorrow night so I am not sure on how my time will be. I promise to post on Thursday when I don't have class.
Until then.................

Baby it's cold outside!
Hello!
Well I started off posting everyday....then once again got sidetracked. I am working on it. It's one of my New Year's Resolutions.....get better at posting!
Today was a "funny" kind of day. It started out with really great intentions and then went down hill from there!
My husband I and decided we were going to "sleep in" today. Sleeping in for us lately has been 8:00am. Well, our furry friends decided at 7:30a that they needed to go "potty" and woke me up. So much for sleeping in. So I made a plan of action for the day. It was going to be a cold day and I decided I was going to hang out here and get needed stuff done around the house.
I had big plans to get my house cleaned, laundry done and some sample made for upcoming events. I started with the laundry, you know the yucky part of sorting? My husband and I each do our own laundry. When we were first married he shrunk a lot of my sweaters (I had the Madonna belly shirts going on, and with my belly, not a pretty picture) so we made a pack that we would each do our own. I started off well. Got the clothes sorted, and the first load in the washer. I had decided that I while I was washing I would hang out in my stamping area and get a couple of the samples I need done, you know get a head of the game. That is a new way of thinking for me!
Anyhow, got all the stampin supplies cut and laid out, when my husband called and said he made us "brunch". I came upstairs and he had a really yummy breakfast waiting for me eggs, hash browns, ham, toast, juice. It smelled good and it was a great surprise. We had a great meal together. I decided to sit on the couch (at 11:30a) for a "few" minutes. A "Law and Order" rerun was on that I had not seen....next thing you know, I look at the clock and it's 3:30p. 4 hours!! I slept for 4 hours!!!! My day shot....down the tubes....nothing done...nada......so I decided what the heck, kicked back for more laying on the couch and watching TV. My husband decided he was going to relax too and read a book. It was one of those kind of days that we have not allowed ourselves to have in such a very long time! It was great!! We even (and if he finds out I told anyone he'll have a fit) watched The Princess Diaries together! So everything I had planned today I just deferred until tomorrow.
Our weather in Michigan has been odd this winter season. We got our first "big" snowfall on Thursday evening. We got 6 inches of snow. We usually get a snowfall by Christmas but this year it didn't happen. I am not complaining. Snow is fun for the first couple of snowfalls, but then it get OLD! Anyhow after the snow, we are having a cold blast. Lows in the single digits. Not one of my favorite things........Our pets like to cuddle together except Tillie. Tillie likes to be on her own, but she is getting older and moving slower (who isn't). We moved the the furniture around after Christmas and our floor heat vent is more "available" now to the pets. Tillie has taken a liking to laying in front of it. I brought up a pillow from the basement, and as you can see she loves it!
none of the other cats even attempt to lay on it. The dogs leave it alone too. We find it quite funny!
OK I am back to the couch and to my book. I am going to finish off the day with me on the couch with my husband, the remote and a nice warm blanket. Maybe it's a cuddle alert!
Until tomorrow...........................

I'll be there for YOU!
...............It's like your always stuck in second gear,
When it hasn't been your day, your week your month or even your year
I'll be there for you.....................The Rembrandt's www.soundtrackslyrics.com/def/Friends.html#01
My life is blessed with friends. My husband, my mom and dad, my sisters, my work friends, my out of work friends, my previous work friends, my pets, my BFF's, my stampin friends, my scrappin friends, my facebook friends, my Girl Scout friends, friends of friends. I am blessed!
I was thinking today how wonderful it feels to have so many friends. When I returned to work today I felt good seeing my work friends or my work "BFFs". It makes going to work not so bad. My friend Karen celebrated her birthday while we were off, Sabrina got a lap top for Christmas so we can "facebook" each other at home, Robb got his much "needed" toaster and my friend Jamie celebrated her holiday with her husband and son. Jamie's husband has enlisted into the Navy. I can't even think on how hard it would be to not have Larry around for 4 months at a time.
Jamie is an outstanding photographer. We have used her services(the last 2 years) in the annual holiday pictures of my nieces and nephews. She also took pictures of my family this summer. That was my birthday present from Larry. It was so much fun! I hope we get to do that again next year~hint hint!~
She has such a great outlook on life, always fun to be around, and always has a smile. I enjoy talking to her and have many many laughs. If you are looking for a photographer, check out her website. A M A Z I N G! http://www.jamicarlson.com/
Here are a few she took for my birthday:
She has such FABULOUS pictures on here website that you should take a gander!
Friends seem to make bad days good, good days better and better days fabulous!! I am blessed beyond words........just a little ramblings today!! And if you are counting this would make 3 days in a row of blogging!
Until later.....................

Two days in a row.......
.....that I blogged. See, I told you I would try harder :0)
Today was spent "un-Christmasing" our house. The Christmas tree was taken down, the stockings put away for another year and the Christmas cookies "finished up" (meaning my husband polished them off!). Yup, we are officially "un-Christmased". I just hate this time. The holiday let down. UGH!!
Anyhow, I did get some card making done yesterday and today. I made my new niece, Adrianna's baptismal invitations. I really liked the way they came out. Simple, but I added some glitter for that "TA-DA" and that is what it did, gave it that "TA-DA". I hope my sister liked them.
We also rearranged the furniture in our living room. Our house isn't all that big but moving the furniture around gives the illusion that it is. The dogs and cats are a little out of sorts. They seem a little confused. The way the furniture is, the cats are now fighting over who gets to lay in front of the heat duct.
I also received a call today from my friend Patty. Patty and I met at the Montessori school I work at. She was one of the team teachers in Upper Elementary when I started. Patty and I became fast friends and have been friends for 9 years now. I only got to work with her one year because she had an opportunity become available in Traverse City so she moved there and has been teaching there ever since.
Last year she started taking about doing some overseas work. First she was talking Afghanistan and I "expressed" to her that she shouldn't go. She listened, but said she was going to go and do this work. She has had strong feelings for this. She found a place that could use her help and is going overdseas tomorrow. She is using the group http://www.safepassage.com/ to do her work.
She leaves tomorrow bright and early on a plane to Guatemala City for 2 months. How, I will miss our phone calls and our finding answers to all the worlds problems. I was a little "verclumped" this afternoon. She promised to email me and update her blog. Here is the link to her blog http://www.patguat.blogspot.com/ in case you may want to follow along. If you would, please send good thoughts and prayers her way.
I also made a pot of split pea soup. Not my favorite, but my husband loves it. I do have to say my house smells good! I am going to share some of the soup with my parents. Funny, how all of the sudden I have the urge to cook. Gosh, what does that mean????
I thought I would share one picture with you this evening......maybe, just maybe there will be a few more tomorrow!
This was from the Christmas Cookie Exchange.
Until next time...................

HELLLOOOOOOO 2010!!!
Happy New Year Everyone.....a day late, but none the less, Happy New Year!!
Let's get caught up, shall we? I finished this quarter with 2 "A's" and 1 "B", with a spot on the deans list. Not too shabby, huh?? One more week and the grind begins all over again. This time a marketing class, composition two and a graphics's class. Little excited to start the graphics's class, using Adobe Illustrator. I will have the same instructor as I had last quarter, so I have good idea of what this instructor will want and need so it should make it a little easier on me in completing the assignments.
Christmas was wonderful. I got a lot of nice things. However, I didn't get my Wii. Maybe for my wedding anniversary in February. OK a girl can dream a little, can't she? :0)
My husband and I went to the movies. We usually go a couple times a year. We did make a resolution of a date night once a month. Hopefully we will follow through with that! Anyhow, we saw "Blind Side" http://www.theblindsidemovie.com/ and thought it was a great movie. I use the cry factor as my movie "great" gage and I cried 2x's. We also saw "It's Complicated" http://itscomplicatedmovie.com/ we really enjoyed that movie too. The whole movie theatre was laughing out loud. I just love Steve Martin and have for years! We are hoping to see "Avatar" http://www.avatarmovie.com/ we are just waiting for line to go down.
New Years Eve was celebrated at my sister's house. As always it is a blast!! Being with my entire family sure makes a great start to the new year. We play games, eat dinner together and just hang out with each other. We also do a "Pollyanna" gift exchange and it gets funnier and funnier as the years go on. I love cleaning my closest cause you never know what you may find for the gift exchange. To my family reading this, you are in for a BIG surprise next year. Larry cleaned out his work gifts from MichCon! That's all I am going to say!
We were also blessed to have my Aunt Margaret there. If you remember last year at this time she was sick and we found out she had cancer. After a year if chemo and surgery, she is considered "cure". She will have to see her doctors every month for a while, but at this point, she is doing much much better. Thanks you for all your kind words and prayers. It meant a lot to me and my family.
I have been working on the St. Vincent dePaul fundraiser scrapbook weekend. It is set for the weekend of April 23, 2010. Here is the registration form....its last years, as the new one hasn't been posted/updated on the website yet, but it still can be used. The cost is still the same as last year. We would love to have you come and scrap with us!!! http://www.svdpdet.org/assets/CampScrapALot2009Flyer.pdf
Well I must be off. My husbands car didn't want to co-operate today, so I need to get ready to go and pick him up from work. In Michigan, it's a bit chilly here (-10 with the windchill) so too cold to walk.......have a wonderful day, until next time!!
OHHHH one more thing!! Happy Birthday to my friend Karen Y. Here's to many many more!

Long, long, time ago, in a way off land...........
……….There was a maiden who had so many things to do……blogging, cleaning, helping, work and family. At times she didn’t know where to start!
Halloween Happenings
I am in my 2nd year of Graphic design and loving what I am learning. I wish there was a way for me to earn a living as a rubber stamper! I should be done and graduated by December of 2010. That is, of course, if I take classes during the summer. We will have to see on that one!
Funny how life gets the best of your good intentions? Let’s see, the last time I posted I had returned back from my Florida vacation and was just hanging out with my family during the summer. Hmmmmmm……….from that point, I have had my hours decreased by 15 a week at my job, I am back in college second year, taking 3 classes, and at times over whelmed with it all! I have taught some Stampin’ Up! workshops and have even done a home demonstration. I became a new aunt for the 9th time and have successfully co-chaired another fundraiser scrapbook weekend for St. Vincent dePaul. Yes, this maiden is busy. I have to say, I love it when I am busy. This way I am not worrying about tomorrow. I am living in the moment.
Let’s start with a workshop or two.....

Happy Summer!
Hello, Hello Hello!!!!
I know, I 
know......SORRY! So much to tell! My husband and I went on vacation as soon as I was out for the summer. It was a great trip. It was wondeful getting away and "reconnecting". Sometimes we get into the habit of being 2 ships that pass in the night. We had a great drive down, visit with my cousin and her friend

Sammy. We went to Clearwater Beach for 2 days and on our way home we stopped in Atlanta to see a friend from High School. Now Ron and I haven't seen each other in over 25 yea
rs! We reconnected on facebook. It was a great visit. He and his partner Harry took us to a great place for dinner. It was so wondeful catching up!
rs! We reconnected on facebook. It was a great visit. He and his partner Harry took us to a great place for dinner. It was so wondeful catching up!I have done a lot of nothing this summer. Hanging out with family, reading and just being plain lazy! I have been "farming" a lot on Facebook's Farmtown. It is actually kind of fun and makes me laugh when I have crops to harvest and no one is around. I get all nervous, like the virtual food is going to spoil! I can hear you chuckling!!!
I have lived pretty much in the sunshine either out in my yard putzing around or at my sister's in her pool.
I have done a little stamping here and there......100 Thank You's for a Wedding gift and 100 Baby Shower invites for my hubands nephew. I will post pictures soon.
I have gotten the new Stampin' Up! Catalog and habve ordered some new fun stuff from it. I am hoping to play with my new stuff this week. As soon as I get the samples done I will post them.
I hope everything is well in your world!

Where oh where have I been????
Where in the world have I been, you asked?
Won the Mega Millions and keeping a low profile?
Jetting around the world in 80 days?
My husband kept me quietly locked in the basement,
where I am only allowed to Scrapbook and Rubberstamps all
day???????
No, none of those. I have been tied to my school books. Yes, that's right, my school books. *SIGH* This quarter has been one tough go! I have had at least 10 hours a week homework in my Graphic Design class, and about 3 hours in my Algebra class. Nuts, I tell you!! Only 2 more weeks and I am done for this quarter. Can I get a WHOOT WHOOT??
I have been missing out on my play time, and let me tell you, I am one sad stamper! HOWEVER, I stayed up until 2:45a this morning, and got my graphics homework done, Today, I am PLAYING!! I still have my final project to finish, but the majority is done and I am going to PLAY ALL DAY!
I, along with my friend Laura, are making Wedding invites for a former Girl Scout of ours. One of our scouts is getting married......gosh we must be getting old.......oh wait Laura is! On Monday she celebrates another BIRTHDAY! Laura is 4 months older than me and I let her know it every chance I get! Anyhow, back to the invites. Our gift to to the bride are 160 homemade invites. We are probably 1/2 way done with them and hope to be finish by today. I can't wait. I hate the feeling hanging over your head feeling. I can cross that off the list!
I also need to get my birthday stack together. I am running very low on Birthday cards for myself. I was going to work on that too! So by tomorrow I should have some pictures to post!!
Tomorrow is my nephew Anthony's 6th BIRTHDAY! HOLY MOLEY!!! I can't believe it has been 6 years. Time sure has flown! I remember, just like yesterday, when he was a baby! Now a Kindergartner! Go figure! Happy Birthday BUDDY!
My husband and I had dinner with an "old" friend of mine, last evening. We reacquainted ourselves through Facebook. Have any of you, become Facebook Junkies? OH MY GOSH!! It's so much fun! I can thank my friends Amy and Stacee for getting me started! (OH and Stacee gave me another sock monkey, that I will be sharing soon!) I have renewed some friendships from my grade school and high school days. Along with cousins whom I never get a chance to see! Anyhow, back to dinner. I haven't seen him in a good 12 years. He hasn't changed, still the same and told my husband and I that we hadn't either. Funny, our conversations pick right back up where we left off! It was a nice evening.
All righty then, I am off to the postoffice, Target and stampin. I feel the creativity coming through!
I promise more updates of pictures this weekend!
Have a great day!

I have been missing out on my play time, and let me tell you, I am one sad stamper! HOWEVER, I stayed up until 2:45a this morning, and got my graphics homework done, Today, I am PLAYING!! I still have my final project to finish, but the majority is done and I am going to PLAY ALL DAY!
I, along with my friend Laura, are making Wedding invites for a former Girl Scout of ours. One of our scouts is getting married......gosh we must be getting old.......oh wait Laura is! On Monday she celebrates another BIRTHDAY! Laura is 4 months older than me and I let her know it every chance I get! Anyhow, back to the invites. Our gift to to the bride are 160 homemade invites. We are probably 1/2 way done with them and hope to be finish by today. I can't wait. I hate the feeling hanging over your head feeling. I can cross that off the list!
I also need to get my birthday stack together. I am running very low on Birthday cards for myself. I was going to work on that too! So by tomorrow I should have some pictures to post!!
Tomorrow is my nephew Anthony's 6th BIRTHDAY! HOLY MOLEY!!! I can't believe it has been 6 years. Time sure has flown! I remember, just like yesterday, when he was a baby! Now a Kindergartner! Go figure! Happy Birthday BUDDY!
My husband and I had dinner with an "old" friend of mine, last evening. We reacquainted ourselves through Facebook. Have any of you, become Facebook Junkies? OH MY GOSH!! It's so much fun! I can thank my friends Amy and Stacee for getting me started! (OH and Stacee gave me another sock monkey, that I will be sharing soon!) I have renewed some friendships from my grade school and high school days. Along with cousins whom I never get a chance to see! Anyhow, back to dinner. I haven't seen him in a good 12 years. He hasn't changed, still the same and told my husband and I that we hadn't either. Funny, our conversations pick right back up where we left off! It was a nice evening.
All righty then, I am off to the postoffice, Target and stampin. I feel the creativity coming through!
I promise more updates of pictures this weekend!
Have a great day!
