Happy Day!!!

Hello everyone! I just want you all to know how happy
you all made me!!! The comments that have been coming in have
certainly have made my DAY! You know, when I first started this,
I thought who would like my stuff???
I knew, I liked them, but would other peeps???
I don't mean to sound egotistical, cause I am far from that,
but digiscrappin' is something I LOVE to do. And I do think
I am pretty good at it, at least I can do something right in
this small world. LOL So to all you peeps who have
downloaded my goodies and left a message THANK - YOU
from the bottom of my heart and to those that just download
and leave no comment, I THANK-YOU too, cause
you downloading it, just goes to show you liked it a little bit,
or you wouldn't even waste your time!
MWAHHHHH to all!!!!
Ok, enough mushy stuff....

My sister came over the other night with her sweet kids,
dressed in their Halloween outfits, they sure are the cutest things!!!
Now why they didn't have these kinda costumes when my kids
were small, is beyond me. I know, I am kinda biased,
cause they are my nephews and niece, but really,
these kids are just tooo cute! Wanna see some photos???
Yes, you say..... GOOD cause I am gonna show them anyway....hahahaha
Just 4 of them, cause you don't want to see all 75 I took....lmao

This is Zander: aka Alligator

Not a Good Day.....LOL

Morning Everyone! Yes, I said morning.... lol I lied!! I told you all
I would never post in the morning.... But under my circumstances I was
woken up early with a hammer and a saw...
Nothing like waking up to THAT!! But I was warned.
Still doesn't make it easy, that's for sure! My DH decided
he wants a wood burning stove in the garage. That means we need
ANOTHER chimney... go figure! lol So I got a bunch of guys in
my yard early this morning banging away...lol I slowly go to the
door, still in my jams, with coffee in hand and the dogs going NUTS!
KC is afraid of everything, she got so scared of these guys,
runs backs into the house slamming me against the door,
trotting on my bare feet, as I try to balance my coffee, but its too late.... COFFEE EVERYWHERE!!!! So not only am I soaking
with coffee early in the morning I am cussing up a storm!!!
Not a pretty site!!! LOL As I sit here and type I look down
at me feet, and no kidding... I got this paw print on my foot
that is completely RED and it matches KC's paw....lol
What a way to start the week!!! Just so you know, all you animal lovers out there.... No Animals were harmed in anyway or fashion...
I do believe KC is hiding under the kitchen table and will
stay there until these guys leave!!! LOL

Do you ever have to be somewhere at a certain time and end up
missing every road you were suppose to take??? Well, that happened
to me yesterday. Oh yeah, yesterday was just as good as today started out.....lol Can I go back to bed and not wake up til tomorrow???? No such luck!!
Yesterday was my monthly meeting with the Stampin' Up! girls.
We have 3 new members and I haven't been to any of their homes yet.
Also I am not familiar with the area where they live. I got the
directions and THOUGHT I knew how to get there,
but honest to God I missed every ROAD... I had to back track
3 times!!!! I was so happy when I finally arrived!!
Parking was fun too!!! Little spot, little car, should have no problems,
yeah right!!! 3 inches away from a boat, I park... If I back straight up
I would be pulling a boat home with me, Hey, not a bad idea,
I always wanted a boat!!! And of course going home should be a breezeeee....
but NOOOOO, the sun was beaming into my eyes and I missed the road
to get back on the highway.... Turn around AGAIN!!! Stop laughing,
it wasn't funny at the time! All in all, as eventful as the ride was,
the time spent with the girls was FUN!!!

Kim has a great freebie over on her blog, wanna see it??? LOL



Isn't it GORGEOUS??!!! She sure makes awesome goodies!
Check it out HERE!
1 million peeps have visited her. How cool is that! I cant even
comprehend the couple thousand that have been visiting me,
I'm beyond ELATED! I cant even fathom 1 million!
Way to go Kim!
Keep up the wonderful things and I see you reaching
2 million in no time!

My dear friend Jazz is missing again, not do to illness, thank God, but her computer got a nasty virus and she hasn't been around in awhile.
Gosh, I am missing her like crazy! I cant wait till she
gets this virus out of her system and can come back!
So this little message to Jazz..... I MISS YA!!!! HURRY BACK!!! XOXOXO

Big, Big.... BIG stuff happening this week and next week!!! I am not at liberty to spill the beans yet, but I would hate for you to miss out on it....so check back all this week and I promise you will NOT be sorry!!!!! Surprises will be flying all over the place!!!! I cant wait to fill ya in!!!

Well, that's about it for the day, I gotta stop talking before I say something I shouldn't yet... I have a way of doing that....not intentionally, but sometimes it just happens. LOL I will be back sometime this week, most likely NOT in the morning, but if I have to, I will....lol Take Care everyone! and stay Safe!
Chow for Now!!!!


PS.... Can someone tell me how to work this margin thing?? Everytime I post, it looks okay in the draft, but when I publish it, its WAY OFF!!! and as much time as I spend looking for typos and such, I am not going back to fix all the indents and such....is there away to do this?????

did of Brooke. LOL Way ahead of you... I first had to
ask Kim if that was ok and this morning I got the ok.... yippie!!!!
