Just the little things  

Tuesday, March 31, 2009

Ever just have one of those weeks? One that begins with you getting sick and basically feeling like crap? Only to have to deal with one of those childhood icks that really gross you out and make you clean, thoroughly, for days? A week that really should essentially be "blocked" out of your mind? Well, I had one of those weeks last week. In fact, it was SO bad, I didn't even check my daily blogs.


A real pick me up happened when Yvonne called me on Tuesday and asked me if I had checked my blogs. She knew what was going on in my life, so....Um, no. I didn't check my blogs.


Y : "Guess who won the House of 3 contest?" (Well, I thought this was like a trick question. She just won a contest a few weeks back.)

me: "You?"

Y: "No. YOU!"


I was, then, instructed to visit the House of 3 and look. Then, I was to go to Rhonna's blog and look. And, guess what I found?

This was so cool! This totally made my day!! The rest of the week! Now, I am actually going to finish a scrapbook project (don't laugh, girlies...you know who you are..) Sometimes, it doesn't get any better than this!

I LOVE technology!!  

Tuesday, March 3, 2009

This morning, Bo and I were snuggling on the couch. Just talking about the beginning of our day, when my cell phone rang.

Bo: "Mommy, just let it ring. Don't answer it."
Me: "It might be someone important."
Bo: "Don't worry, mommy! The washing machine will get it!" All smiles.

Hmmm...I really didn't realize my washing machine was good for that!? I thought that's what answering machines and voicemail were good for! Gotta love technology!!

Lost treasures....  

Wednesday, February 18, 2009

It seems like I am always on the quest for the "perfect picture". Of course, it has to always be a new current picture.
But, sometimes, it's so exciting to come across one picture you have forgotten about. One picture that totally captures the essence of the one you are photographing.
I have to say, this is one of those pictures.
The childlike innocence. Peaceful. And, of course, the flowers, which I ABSOLUTELY love!!

Of course, I haven't edited it, yet. Just too many things going on around here. Between work and life. Kids. There is just never time for me.

BUT, this Friday, I will be getting together with the BFF's to scrapbook. Much needed time. Good food. Happy juice. Time to just play and create.

These are the times I cherish. Can't wait!!

Contemplations...  

Tuesday, February 3, 2009

Life changes from day to day; it changes constantly. Things that SHOULD be a constant in our life change; we evolve. We grow with that change, and we adapt. But what happens when you cannot grow with the change? When you cannot adapt?

You must create a new path...a new road of life to travel. You close the "chapter" on one aspect of your life and begin anew. Proceeding with cautiousness but a with a new appreciation of what came before. Now open to all possibilities. Searching for a purpose.

Pretty short, but deep for one who rarely blogs, huh? Needless to say, change is coming, and it's all around me. I'm hesitant about it, because, honestly, who really deals well with change? But, I have my friends and family to help me through this. I know I will come out of this a stronger person, and with that, I will also have more of an appreciation for my friends and family. You all know who you are, and that I love you dearly.

What to say...  

Monday, February 2, 2009

HMM. I have to admit, blogging has been the furthest thing on my mind. Too many issues I am currently dealing with, and I admit, I really don't want to dwell on them right now. Maybe at a later time, but for now, well....

Still have my Christmas tree up! Yes, you read that correctly. My goal was to have it put away this past weekend. Maybe this weekend.

I'm getting ready to make dinner. Maybe I'll work on a new header later. The one that's there is a little boring, I know. I really need to post pictures, too! Will work on that.

Did I tell you I discovered Facebook? OMG! I have caught up with so many friends from high school! Even friends I see occasionally around town but never have the time to call. And, guess what? I discovered that I LOVE to take pictures. I just am lousy at actually posting them (does this seem to surprise anyone?)

SO NOT DONE.....YET  

Friday, January 16, 2009

Found this great blog template on the AWESOME Rhonna Farrer's blog. This is too cool! Rhonna is so talented, and she is truly such an inspiration! I must admit, I have inspired but not as much as recently. Thanks to Rhonna starting up a blog again!

I am currently at a scrapbook crop, and I am sitting here playing on my computer. See, Rhonna? I am INSPIRED! And, I must admit, I am having fun. Having a little trouble trying to type and talk at the same time, but I am having fun!

Well, off to create. Time to put the blog away!
