A new day

soooo....yeah, the blog thing obviously didn't work out so well. Hmmm.... I'm going to try again and again and again, until I get it right! First off, what's been happening with me? Lots.... but I can only remember the past few months, so here goes.... I celebrated my birthday, AGAIN, and guess what? I got a surprise party, just like I wanted. Complete with friends, food, and utter specialness!

I sold some of my handmade flowers at Caesar's Palace! Woop! Woop!

My girl has been doing gymnastics and loving it! Summer vacation is almost over and fall is right around the corner, I CANNOT wait! I love cooler weather, pumpkin smells, leaves, and of course CRAFTING!

Well, I'm off to get stuff done...toodles!

You know its amazing to me the choices some people make in their lives. Some people, myself included at times, make shitty decisions purposely. I mean come on, everyone knows that there are consequences to everything. I don't work out, I get fat, I punch someone in the face, I go to jail, ya da ya da ya da.

So, why do we continue to make shitty decisions for our lives?

Hello and a lovely Monday morning to you all. This past weekend was my birthday weekend and it was a lovely one. My mom, myself, and Siena all went to Mount Charleston for a little picnic on Friday and it was just soooo nice to get away from the heat and the city. I know it makes Siena soo happy, but I think it really changes my outlook as well. I mean I'm nervous still about a lot of things, like is Siena going to take a fall off some rocks or get poison ivy or am I going to have to haul my mom up somewhere because she slipped, but I feel more relaxed in nature....hmmmm, maybe I should become a wilderness woman fighting off bears and such...nah, too adventurous for me. Anyhoo, Saturday strolls along(my birthday) and Siena goes to Lola's house and Sean(the husband) takes me for a yummy breakfast then a peek at Barnes & Noble, then to see the movie "Funny People"(which was hilarious by the way...why is it soo funny for men to talk about their penises???), then we came home and showered and then went out for martinis at this really cute place. It was eventful and thoughtful, Sean thought of it all, except the movies. And that is exactly what I wanted....to be thought of like the day you were born, so special, even for just a moment. Next year I think I want a party...you listening, Sean? PARTY! Start planning now. Then Sunday, we had a lovely little BBQ at a friends house to top it all off! Nice right?








What else, what else, oh yeah...I finally found some work. woo hoo! They want me to paint their WHOLE house, yessiree bob, can't wait. I need to dust the cobwebs off my painting arms. Here are some photos of the weekend. Hopefully, by the end of this week, I will have pictures of some of the things I'm am working on....till then...:)

What to do...what to do...

I feel an overwhelming sense of craftiness that needs to get out! Having a craft night with mom tonight, so hopefully I'll get a release. I finished up some pottery today, so there's thaaattt....now I'm not sure what to do...need to get out of the house with my doodle....

Grateful for: doodle kisses(randomly, not asked for), a creative mom that likes to get crafty, little girls who want to drink all my coffee and really cool blogs.

could do without: the darn cicada bugs and their loud pitched buzzing!

new beginnings

So, I've decided to start a blog. It's something that I've been wanting to do for a while, tried once, but then never kept up. Those of you who know me, know about my blog addiction. I hope by having one maybe I will get more done in order to post to the great wide world about my creative endeavors, versus reading about others doing cool stuff. Hang in there with me, and maybe I might be able to inspire or least make you laugh about what it is that I do.

grateful for: coffee with a friend, the smell of rain, the ability to read and write

could do without: cramps, and humidity
