Here is a preview of "one" of the pages Im working on for the big project coming up. Im really excited about this and CANNOT WAIT to tell yall all the wonderful news. BUT, I cant yet. I cant leave this page up but for a couple days then i have to take it back down. BUT you can at least see what I have been working on :)

ALSO I made this for Miss Bella Bug:




This is for the Design Team I am on TREASURES TO SCRAP. Three bugs in a rug is the Dt featured sponsor for this month. SO be sure and check them out.

FOr the ones that need to hear it

"Bless your persecutors; never curse them, bless them. Rejoice with others when they rejoice, and be sad with those in sorrow. Give the same consideration to all others alike... Never pay back evil with evil, but bear in mind the ideals that all regard with respect. As much as is possible, and to the utmost of your ability, be at peace with everyone... If your enemy is hungry give him something to eat; if thirsty, something to drink. By this you will be heaping red-hot coals on his head. Do not be mastered by evil, but master evil with good."

So to the ones that need it today I say this....
BLESS YOU.

THANK YOU CAROLE!

THis is the page I made with the RAK that CAROLE sent me. THANK YOU SO MUCH CAROLE. I had so much fun making this page! I won layout of the day today at TREASURES TO SCRAP!!! WHEHEW go check it out!I have been working hard on some pages of my dad this weekend and today. Getting ready for a pub. IT is alot tougher than I thought. I remember why it has been 11 years since I have done a page.
Hope everyone has a great week.

FINALLY FRIDAY!

LOVE these photos of Bella and her Papa last year on her birthday. She just loves her papa sooo much and wants to call and talk to him all the time. SHe is so funny and he is JUST A LITTTTLLEEE TINY BIT crazy about her too hahaha! This is from the IMAGINE CREATE SCRAP MARCH KIT (fancy pants). Where I am a design team member. I had alot of trouble cutting this paper cuz well, it is so pretty! I still have a few designs left to scrap.

I had a rockin COOOOOOL as Snow mail day yesterday. I GOT 36 sheets of the new BLING CARDSTOCK from THE CHALET. She also sent some basic grey I needed to finish a project. Laura YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR WOMAN! I JUST LOVE YA! SO glad I got it before it started stormin too! I would have died if that got wet!

Today I register BElla for school. I cannot believe my baby is big enough to go to school. 4K She is going to love it. I will love it too since I can get some things done, but Im gonna miss her runnin round here up my tail all day hahaha. We have since Im feeling better, had alot of funbeing home together. SHe is my scrappin buddy and loves to help me cook and do things. I have missed her so much while being sick and recovering from one thing after the other this passed year. I feel so bad that I was in bed with her here bored all day. IT doesnt mix well. SHe stayed in trouble. BUT the good thing is she got to spend alot of time with Grandma and she got to spoil her totally rotten. SHe is one of those kids that wants full attention and something to do. we have been goin to play group more since IM not havin to take the medication that makes me sick and not be out and about. I still have to be careful for the next several weeks but dont have to take it anymore so we are sooo happy. it is miserable to feel nauseaus and achey allt he time. I cant remember the last time I felt good that is pretty sad. BUT IT IS GETTING BETTER and IM SO GREATFUL FOR everyones prayers. It got real depressing for a while there. I sometimes think it is worse to feel good and get to do things and become almost a normal human out in society then whamo have another huge flair up and have to be secluded to home and feel crappy all the time and get depressed. IT is truly devastating to the entire family. Nothing is normal anymore everyone has to work harder. It is just not fair sometimes. I hate it worse for my hubby and Bella. BUt Im thankful I have both of them soooo much! This week we have gone To play group and the mall and actually and going again today weather permitting to play with our friends. It is good to be around my pals and so good for bella to get to play.

Speaking of weather I know alot of you are worried because we had so much bad weather yesterday. My phone was ringing off the hook. But my calls kept dropping in and out also. But we are ok. The really bad stuff that killed all the people is North East of us. That was so horrible and I feel so bad for all of those people.Keep them in your prayers.
Hope everyone is safe and survived the storms.


TOnight there is a Celebrity chat at The Chalet with Christy Tomlinson of BHG scrapbooks etc. SO be sure and stop in and hear what great things she has to say about the scrapbooking industry. SHould be so much fun and very informative. ON the front page you will see her photo and the chat room is right under there. Just click on the link and follow the instructions. Hope to see you there.

GOt alot of errands to run today. SO will be out and about with the kiddo. Then home and major scrappin to finish up.

I HAVE a really big publishing gig coming up I cant mention yet but found out about yesterday. 2 actually, 1 is an online e-zine yall will be hearing about very soon and its a BIG DEAL! IM SO EXCITED AND GRATEFUL TO THE OWNER OF THE SITE for picking me. SHE KNOWS WHO SHE IS and you will see some advertising on it soon. My mouth is still on the floor. The other one is rockin cool and Im really excited about especially because of WHICH pages it is that are getting published and where they are being published in the media. More news will come on that because I cant say yet and still working on getting details all worked out with the person and the company. DID I mention I get paid for this HOW COOL IS THAT! SO im praying it turns out well. THis is huge, bigger than anything I have done so far or ever THOUGHT I would be able to do and a DREAM come true.I need to go before I start crying again about it haha! So just keep your fingers crossed for me!Don't wanna jinx it.
toodles hope you have a great friday!!

AMERICAN IDOL is a lupus survivor

All of you I believe know the battle we have been fighting for years now with lupus sle/nephritis. I found this an amazing story and am definitly voting for this girl. KNOWING what I KNOW about this illness as a fellow sufferer for her to get on that stage under those lights and do what she is doing is A MAJOR ASTOUNDING accomplishment. So please read her story and think about it while watching Idol



Leslie Hunt Advances to the Top 20 American Idol Finalists


The lupus community is cheering for Leslie Hunt of Chicago, Illinois as she advances to yet another round of competition on American Idol. Hunt is now one of the top 20 finalists. She will perform again on Wednesday, February 28, and the Lupus Foundation of America urges everyone to tune in and vote for Leslie as she seeks to become the next American Idol.

Hunt was diagnosed with lupus at a young age and includes on her American Idol profile that living with the autoimmune disease was the toughest obstacle of her life. Now 24, she has a new passion for life and is taking a proactive approach to overcoming the limitations she experienced while growing up with lupus.

Leslie is making everyone who is touched by lupus very proud as they watch her on national television. Her efforts are creating plenty of goodwill among all who are greatly impacted by lupus and who struggle on a daily basis with the debilitating and disabling consequences of the disease. Best wishes to you, Leslie.

Read Leslie Hunt's biography on the American Idol Web site

Read a Chicago Tribune article about Leslie

Remember to vote on Wednesday evening. Here’s how to vote for Leslie.

PS: if you are a praying person even if your not please say a prayer tonight for Trevor and his family. (the co owner of treasures to scrap) Trevor is her son in law and is 30 years old and is in kidney failure. He is having complications and its not looking good. They are praying tonight for a miracle so please just remember them in your prayers please and also to bring comfort and peace to them. They are going through so much. It is so helpless to sit and watch someone you love sick and not be able to do anything. SO just keep them in your thoughts and prayers please. ALSO remember Traelyn and her daughter Gabby (we are having the auction for) they left for cincinatti yesterday I think it was or maybe this morning. This is another surgery for Gabby she is 4 years old. SO just remember all of them please.

WHew hewww good news on a friday

Here is another Layout I made with the Dasher line from Basic grey.


I have a secret I have a secret. I can't tell it yet yall are gonna be excited!!!

BUT here is some news I CAN Share!! I got offered a design team position today for Treasures to Scrap. SO exciting! So many talented people over there and what a gorgeous site and store they have. Stop by and say hello if your in the neighborhood.
It has been a rather quiet day here. Have had a bad headache today. Think it is the weather. Going from 40 to 75 in a day doesn't help. Hoping this doesnt spur on some storms that are headed this way.

Tonight we had a wonderful chat at The Chalet with Karen Russel who created the narratives line for Creative Imaginations. She is so talented and the BE and Narratives lines are just gorgeous eye candy. I got some of the paper and have yet decided which photo to put on it cuz well... IT is just too pretty to cut. I will have to stare at it a bit longer before I can even think of cutting this paper. DO you have papers like that in your stash?

This will be a scrappy weekend. Got projects due and lots of mo jo flowing. SO stand back while the paper is flyin.
Hope you have a great weekend.

still blushin'

Still playin with the basic grey I got valentines day. LOVIN this line
I wanted to scrap my Mardi Gras photos so bad SO i printed this pic. put a new spin on it.

WAIT: The longest wait is right before the parade is to begin.

MONDAY was a gorgeous day

MONDAY was a GORGEOUS day. My friend Annette here in Mobile and her 2 kids asked if we would go with them to the parade downtown. We had never gone to the parades before so bella was so excited. I told her id see cuz well yall know with all the health stuff that has been going on I am not supposed to be out alot. But JOhn said since it is outside and not alot of people crammed in a building it isnt as bad.I was so happy to get out. IT ws pretty and not too cold. WE had soooo much fun. I know back home they dont do much for mardi gras but here they shut down everything and downtown is covered kinda lik new orleans. IT is a huge party and celebration. People everywhere parades all day. School is closed. Like nothing you see back home. The parade was fabulous.SO much more than I expected.The floats were BEAUTIFUL. I was not expecting such professional realistic floats I was thinking oh they willput streamers on a trailer NO YOU WONT BELIEVE the FLOATS omg they were amazing. We had lunch at Pickle fish resteraunt (a YUMMY pizza Place) it was so fun. Bella loved it. I almost teared up several times looking at how happy she was. We dont get to go out and do alot so it was treasured moment definitly. I got to meet Gretchen and we also hit if off immediatly. I had actually met her a couple of times just not had realized it. She is so funny. We divided up the loot and still had to much it covered the table. We have those serpentine things all over the house today bella has been throwing themplaying parade. She walks her babies around in their shopping buggy and throws beads at her stuffed animals. SO FUNNY! SHe had soo much fun and just kept talking about it all day. We will definitly be planning to go more next year. I hope all the family can come down and see some of this you all would love it! We wanted to go back today but after taking my meds last night I was just too nauseaus and exhausted from all the fun we had yesterday.THere are alot more people at it today too and didnt want to take the chance of catching anything. I slept alot today and just finished up some things here at home.
I didn't feel up to going to bunco tonight with Katrina. SORRY GIRL I slept till almost 7. Almost missed AMerican IDOL!! SO I totally wiped that one out. I will make it up to ya. I felt a little better then ate and well that didn't work out well it started all over. Hopefully we can get together and scrap this weekend. That was pretty fun! Well my hubby is ready to watch the movie. Bella is all snuggled down asleep and im still exhausted. I think we walked 10 miles. IT was fun though. I will never forget that day. GOnna scrap it soon got my photos back today and man some awesome shots!!!
Hope yall had a great mardi gras.

FUN FUN FUN!!

Yesterday Was A GORGEOUS day. I felt more human than I have in a long long time. Still sore but not NEAR as nauseaus as I have been. HOPEFULLY Im done with all those days. We will know soon :)
It was Christophers Birthday so we went to his party at lavitra Park. Annette made the Cake herself! I was HIGHLY impressed. It was so cool. Looked like a tank and had an army man sitting on it. It had the field and the gravel the whole works. Bella said it tasted pretty yum yum too! SO way to go Annette! GIrl you sure know how to throw a party. We saw lots of our friends from playgroup and Bella had so much fun playing on the playground. SHe smiles bigger than I have seen in a while.

We came home. Watched Garfield, ate supper. John cleared some old files off my computer... old pictures and other just junk that has taken up space for too long. He fussed cuz I need to reorganize my files on there Yeah i know huney I will I promise. eventually haha! MUAH! I updated my gallery and added more creations to The Chalet. Chatted with my friends for a bit before I hit the hay.





















Today was another pretty day here in Mobile. We have had a good day today. Still no nauseau. Got some of my scrap room cleaned up and ready for my new cabinets and island to come in here. Hopefully it will warm up soon so we can paint. We have changed the cabinet style this is the 4th time because we keep finding a better deal. I cannot wait Im so excited. We also are about to start putting down the hard wood floors and renovating the bathrooms and making this more like home. I guess since it has been 2 years we figure we will be here a while so might as well get comfy.

I wanted to congratualte MICHELLE (vanilla) for winning layout of the week this week over at the CHALET. GIRL your page rocked outloud! Im so proud of you girly girl!

I hope it stays pretty and we stay feeling well like today we have alot of plans for this week and alot of photo ops. SO stay tuned. Im gonna get these and more photos printed up and the pages will be coming soon. Got alot of projects due and alot of pubs coming out! SO keep your eyes peeled!

THis is what John got me for Valentines day. HE IS A ROCKIN HUBBY I MUST TELL YOU! HE knew JUST what to get. Love you sweetie and thanks.




John's Aunt Stephy and Uncle Evans were down in Mobile on business and came by to have suppr with us. I felt like sick, and I know I looked horrible but I really wanted to see them and well, it really did do me good and cheered me up some. THey are always so much fun and so sweet to us. Bella just fell in love with them. THis is the first time she has ever met them. We email them photos all the time and she reads my blog to see what is going on and stuff but nothing like getting a real hug!! Bella coudln't keep her hands off her and was complimenting her fingernails and jewelry. I made aunt steph count all her rings and stuff before she left to make sure the little booger didnt keep any souvenirs from their visit haha. SHe did convince Aunt Stephy to paint her fingernails though. (it didnt take much convincing!at all I am not sure which one had more fun) I had to get some photos for a scrapbook page. We dont get to see them often but they are soooo loved by us and us them! SO I have to add them to Bella's book!


MY 2 valentines!!! THERE is my entire heart in one photo!! I love these two so much!

I hope everyone had a great Valentines Day and TONIGHT IS AN AWESOME TV NIGHT! SURVIVOR/GREYS ANATOMY/ ER there is my line up! SO I am totally gonna be veggin out tonight in front of the tube. I have to watch it in the back because it is too graphic for Bella. John could care less so we got her the curious George movie to watch tonight. SO they will be entertained. SO what do you think is gonna happen on greys? I keep hearing rumor DENNY is coming back! I cannot wait to see how they do this. OK gotta go clean up the chicken and dumplings I made. Uncle Evans is a great cook and he gave me some tips on how to do my chicken and dumplings. MIne keep dissolving so I tried his method and so far so good. I hear no complaints! I felt pretty good this afternoon and ever since we talked the other night about making chicken and dumplings Bella has been on a chicken and dumpling mode. she keeps sayign but pleeeeaaseee. SO I felt some better today so I broke down and made them. They turned out OK but I think it was more I just wasnt feeling 100% than the recipe Know what I mean. OK REALLY gotta go now Bella is quiet and that equals a mess.
TOODLES
Hug the kiddos!

someone need a smile?

Bella brought me this little book earlier today, and it has the best little poems in it. I really like these two. I feel like maybe someone needs to read this today.. So IF it is you. I hope it touches you and makes you smile. :)



INfluence
Drop a pebble in the water,
And it's ripples reach out far;
and the sunbeams dancing on them
May reflect them to a star.

Give a smile to someone passing,
Therby making his morning glad;
It may greet you in the evening
WHen your own heart may be sad.

DO a deed of simple kindness;
Though its end you may not see,
It may reach, like widening ripples,
Down a long eternity.

Joseph Morris


A WORTHWHILE SMILE

It is easy to be pleasant
WHen life flows by like a song,
But the person worthwhile is one who smiles
when everything goes dead wrong

For the test of the heart is trouble
and it will always come witht he years.
And the smile that is worth the praises of earth,
is the smile that shines through the tears.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

BUT IT IS STILL A TOOT!!

looky looky

I think this is one of my fav pages I have done lately.
How groovy is this. Im on here with several of my pals! HEY YALL MOVE OVAH MAKE ROOOM FOR MEEE!

the girl is on a roll

a little page I whipped up with the BLUSH BASIC GREY LINE I got for christmas. (THANKS MA) LOVE LOVE THIS PAPER. The colors are so rich. I took the 2 question marks in teh hardware kit and made my heart. glued them together and painted them.

the scan made the photo look green tinted... or maybe it is just me.. I feel green so maybe i see green.

SOME GOOD NEWS THOUGH.. Yall remember my freind Cathy... Pages for Cathy, CATHY.. well I talked to Sally and she told me when she went to her dr this last time THE dr asked her if she USED SOMEONE ELSES BLOOD!!!! HER TEST RESULTS WERE SO GOOD THEY DIDNT THINK THEY WERE HERS! Talk about a blessing. God is so good! Thank you all for continued prayers for her and her family.

Not too much going on today supposed to go to a little party with Bella, But I dont think IM gonna get to go. Too risky since so many kids will be there and you know where there are kids there are germs. Im hesitant to send Bella but I KNOW she is going crazy bored here with us and wants to have some fun. SO we are still tossing the idea around. I dunno we will see.
Watching qvc and hsn the scrapbooking shows today. getting some cool inspirations.
WOnt dare buy anything most of that stuff I have already or it is not priced good for what I need or you get 10,000 and I only need 900 (hahaha) Hope you have fun watching today as well.

LOVE YOU MORE

BElla asked me one day "love me?" I replied " I love you more than you will ever know"
she happily skipped away.. IF she only knew what I know.. she never would have to ask.

love those relaxing sundays...

LOVED the half time super bowl show. Even in the rain, Prince rocks! Jeanne and I decided purple rain was the perfect song for him to sing and YUP he sang it lol. I can remember seeing him in Jackson and my friend Melinda and Vickie on the 2nd row. We had so much fun. Then we went to the dock afterwards (yeah mama we went to the dock pick up your jaw) and he came there!!! He sang and danced and we had our picture made on his limo (like we were some kinda super stars I coudln't get over how short he was. Im talkin wizard of oz "WE ARE THE LOLLIPOP kids" short. AND HE HAD on these HIGH HEEL BOOTS liek 2 inch heels and he was STILL SHORT. SHORTER THAN ME!!!!!! BUT he knows he can sing and dance and play that dang piano mannn! HE had some BIG OL bison head fellers walkin round with him. He looked like a kid up against them. They made the wwf wresters look tiny. these guys arms were bigger than my waist (at that time now it would be a friggin miracle if anything was as big as my waist) ANyway that was rockin cool. AHHH to be that young and SKINNY again. I need to find those pictures. That woudl make a cool page. I still have my No fraidy cats welcome THE DOCK t shirt somewhere around here. Hate they closed that place. man we used to have fun there in the summer on the boats.

Got my hair cut this week. It is falling out and looked awful. ITs all diffent lengths and wont do nothing. So she cut it REALLY short so you cant notice the fallin out part as much. so I have like the REALLY short doo. NOT as short as Cathy Z but about an inch longer. It looks so much better though.But has the someone scared the crapp out of me look to it where it stands up everywhere. and when I wake up it looks that same as whenI go to bed haha!NOT alot I can do to it.

had a quiet day at the Jones residence today. Had major headache and still all pukified (is that a word?) but it lets up just in time to start over again huh. Be glad when this is over and I can get this all straightened out. ahh its not too bad it could be worse i guess. SO many are alot worse.

Finished up my page on the JONES' CHALLENGE. Yall are gonna love this new challenge we/I am doing. Its hot. DId some rockin cool techniques on this page.
