WHOOPS....I OVERSLEPT

The kids spent the night last night and I conked out on them...and I also overslept..They woke me up at 10:00 when their Dad came to get them...they are going to their other grandmothers out of town today...Chase was 19 on Friday and Josh will be 21 in October.  I'm thinking it's to give them their birthday money. I still I haven't had my big inspection.  I told Chase this morn. if they didn't come today, we had to mop and wax again over the weekend..Did you know I couldn't find any Floor Wax..they have mop and glow and Pledge floor finish,and other such things, but I could not find any plain ole fashioned floor wax.  I looked at Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Big Lots, Family Dollar, Dollar General, and Grocery Stores, only places I haven't looked is Lowe's .  I am going to look their tomorrow..Floors just don't hold a shine with those other floor mop and wax products.

They must have been hungry too..LOL..Chase hasn't hasn't been working this week..they have a new job starting next week.. so I imagine they ate all of their groceries.  I had some canned ravioli and beefaroni, ramen noodles, and tuna fish I got for them to eat when they pop in hungry...and man did they eat LOL..cleaned out my stash. They also brought a huge basket of clothes to wash but they got disappointed about that..I am out of washing detergent..LOL Got to get me some tomorrow..so they left them in the laundry room..guess they will come back tomorrow and wash them..

Running Around In Circles

Good Morning Gang...

Hope you are having a great day...me-well I'm running around in circles this AM..got a letter yesterday afternoon, the Inspectors are out in full force...9th-19th..I didn't have much to do just a few odd and end things, empty garbage cans in the house, sweep the floors, dust again...I just wish they would come today and get it over with. You know what happens when I have to move my poor arms to much....yep A&B were fighting last night and this morning over who was going to hurt the worst..and today of all days, Gemma got up being a little brat..she torn all the stuffing out of one of her poor animals..you can just imagine what my LR floor looked like with batting all over it and the couch!!

Gemma has some long white hair on the top of her head.. when she throws her toys up in the air, she looks like she has a mohawk..reminds me of those gremlins from the movie..HEHEHEHE I've got to make her picture like that and show you..well it was like that when I caught her ,and the expression on her face when I yelled her name, just cracked me up..I sure got a good laugh...then I couldn't get on to her too bad...

Have you been to KimB's Designs and checked out her new kit, Spring Passion..its just beautiful

Its on sale for a few days more at 25% Off..that's a great price for all you get in this beautiful kit.. check out her blog today for a sack full of freebies from some awesome designers..

Mischievous Furbaby

Good Tuesday morning everyone..hope you slept good last night..I got a little bit more sleep last night but I knocked myself out LOL..it doesn't take much medicine to do that to me..my daddy told me one time I would be a cheap drunk..lol I had surgery on my hand and took this strong pain medicine and it made me loopy for 3 days!!! I was staying with my parents for the first few days, I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, went to the closet and guess I would have used it there but the door wouldn't close and it woke me up enough to find the bathroom, my mom was sure glad hehehe...I had to call the Dr and get some different pain pills..

I received a very special award from my friend Renee yesterday...

 

She received it from Mojo visit her blog to find out what the award is for...but I would like to pay it forward to some very dear friends

 

Michelle McCoy is a wonderful person, she inspires me, she faces many difficulties with her health but never lets them get her down..stop by and visit her blog she has some awesome freebies and some great products in her store

PkDoll This lady is a great scrapbook artist..and a wonderful friend..she's so dedicated to scrapbooking and learning new things..don't be surprised if you see her name pop up a store one day!!

Nett she is a fellow CT member and so funny..she makes me laugh and feel good..she does some amazing layouts and some of them are so funny...but they all all beautiful..

These next people don't have blogs but they are very special to me and I know they are ones that Mojo would approve of  for her award...

Crops2dawn..she has been my friend for over 2 years now..she was the very 1st person who commented on one of my layouts and her words were so encouraging she made me want to keep on scrapbooking and keep trying to do better..she can say some of the funniest things and sometimes I laugh so hard my sides hurt..she makes me feel good too..and she is an awesome scrapbook artist..she gets better everyday..and she's very good at designing her own things too...

Granny is a designer at SBM.. she is one of the sweetest, kindest, funniest, and talented people I know of..she's the heart and soul of the forum at SBM..I got to meet her last month and it was so awesome..love ya Granny. 

There are so many many more people who are kind and sweet who have big hearts and care so much I award you the Sweety Award also..wish I could list everyone on here...

 

Speaking of pills...I only take about 15 different ones a day, I have this set of long boxes with morn noon bedtime on them and there is one for all the days of the week..I fix them on Monday for a full week...today I had taken my morning meds and left the box on my stool that I use for a coffee table..I was in my new computer room and I noticed that Gemma wasn't in here..went to check on her and lo and behold she had gotten my long blue box, had it opened and pills all over the floor, she had been having a good time chewing on the box, It scarred me so bad, I didn't know if she had eaten any or not..I finally found them all but 1/2 of one..don't know if she ate it or what but it didn't hurt her, I think maybe it made her more hyper..I tell you she has add...I wonder if I could get her some meds for that and calm her down HEHEHHE...

When Gemma wants to go outside and potty she turns in circles in front of the door..and gets faster and faster..I was lying on the couch watching TV this afternoon, and it was raining, but she wanted to go out, I kept telling her no it was raining..so not getting the answer she wanted, she jumps up on top of me and starts going around and around..I thought she was going to push my insides out my back before I got her to stop...she's like a child, you never know what she is going to do next...

If Arthur and Bertie will let me, I'm planning on having some new sets of Word Art done later this week..I will let you know when they go in the store..but today I want to show you a few pages my CT sent me yesterday..they are all awesome..

Crops made this awesome page, she used word art from my fish tales wordart set..he is sure proud of his catch..look at that smile on his sweet face..thanks girl..

Stranger in the House

and its ME...between my cold, Arthur and Bertie waging war on me, and the BIG INSPECTION, well--needless to say I've been kinda out of pocket..I have been eating pain pills and muscle relaxers and taking anti inflammatory once a day I've been knocked out for a few days..My grandson Josh and my Daughter worked and worked on the apartment..it wasn't that dirty its just what all you have to do, clean and wax the floors, clean stove and fridge, clean closets, no clutter anywhere an so on..I still have boxes in the closet floor I haven't unpacked..and my laundry room was something else, you know how you tend to stash things in a room that's not seen...welllll since I moved in March that's what I have been doing, I kept meaning to clean it out, but as I am sometimes a procrastinator, I never did...poor Angie got the job..they have my apartment looking better than when I moved in..so Friday comes and I wait and I wait and I wait some more, keeping all doors closed so Gemma won't mess them up, twice I found her in my bed, under the covers, looked like a lump in the bed..hehehe..and you know what...THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP to inspect..I was angry to say the least..I don't know if they are coming today or not...the kids didn't come over this weekend so it still look good..have a few little things to straighten up..but I'm sure proud of it..

I got something I've been wanting for a long time though..A computer room, since Chase moved out his room has been empty save for a bookcase..so I got my big computer desk from my old house, and my big chair, and we cleaned Chase's room good and moved my computer and all my things into his room..moved a chest from Andrews room into my room, moved the small computer desk to Andrews room..since they finally came and picked up his medical equipment and supplies, they cleaned the bedroom and lowered the bed as far as would go, put a bedspread on it..and a night stand and lamp, it looks like a regular br now..I never went in there before, It was just too painful.

So that about sums up what I've been doing. I have some things to show you today...

Oh by the way, have you picked up my grab bag yet?  They go off sale today..so you better hurry before Bunny moved them and they will be regular price..

I have some beautiful layouts from my CT..they are such wonderful and talented ladies..I'm so lucky to have them all..

Crops made this beautiful layout..she used one of my dance word arts..thanks corps love this one..

This beauty is from PKDoll, she used  some things from KimB's last grab bag sale...I love those little dresses hangin on the tree..these are 3 of her granddaughters..she used more of my dance word art.

You know this has to be from Marion, we have another picture of Sweet Baby James, it just thrills me to see his pictures and see how much better he looks and is doing....he's a miracle baby! This layout is just beautiful Marion..I love those hearts around the page..and the word art she chose is from Special Ones..and its just perfect for this page..

 

Maggie Mae made this awesome layout..she used word art from the Love set.

Remember if any of you have used my word art in your layouts please send them as I would love to see them.

I made you a little something..sorta  a preview to upcoming sets..

Wednesday Child Is Full of Woe

Hi Everybody,

Heard those old sayings about children born on different days of the week....well I wasn't born on Wednesday but this one is giving me WOE today LOL..

Found out yesterday that we are having a BIG INSPECTION in the apartment complex I live in..and just guess when..the

2nd-5th...do you know what that means...It means I'm in a pickle..my GS was here when I got the letter and he helped me clean my fridge and the stove and had to go..he's supposed to come back early this am..butttt since its already 10 am I don't think he's going to make it early LOL...Angie is coming down tomorrow and help me...Arthur and Bertie sure don't like for me to clean..they are so lazy they don't want to do anything where I have to move my arms!!! I called the office this morning and told them my tale of Woe and they said they would wait till Friday so I have a little reprieve.

I woke up with a summer cold...and its supposed to be Fall..gee can't anything keep up with the weather...and my oxygen concentrator decided to sing for me today and it's bleeping away in there and driving me nuts..called that office to and its going to be awhile before they can come out and check it..Gemma was barking at it but thank goodness she stopped hehehe..But I shouldn't complain about the little stuff..I'm alive by the Grace of God and I'm better off than some..

Here's that little poem in case you don't know it..

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child born on the Sabbath Day,
Is fair and wise and good and gay.

What day are you? Angie and I were born on Friday and Lori was born in the wee hrs of a Sunday Morning..My sister was born on Sunday too. I think Josh, Chase and Andrew were are born on Friday..Sarah Grace was born on a Wednesday and Jake on Saturday or late Friday night(I think) Gage was born on Saturday.

Oh well enough yaking..I have some more good stuff to show you.

I have a new kit my store today

I made this set for a good friend of mine who requested it. She has a special needs child..and she is so beautiful..however, most of them can be used for others as well..there are 20 word arts and its only $4.

This beautiful heritage page was made by PK doll she used word art from the Heritage part of my PU bag..its in the store now..

Another awesome LO by Maggie Mae..she has the most fantastic pictures of nature and such..I tell her she should publish one of those coffee table books with her pictures..she used WA from the Nature part of the PU bag..

O2BNGdHope made this one- Isn't it just precious..this little girl with the awesome smile is her GD Tayler dressed to match her Barbie Doll. She used word art from the Scrap Journal WA beautiful page
