Holidays

Not sure how I feel abt Christmas... It has become so commercial. Ppl r so rude I work retail and I feel more like a maid than a cust serv expert. It's so hard to keep up with all the stuff that gets placed in the wrong spots. I haven't decided yet but next year will b dif I'm not sure how but I want a change.
Life is to short to not enjoy every minute of it.

Quotes

This is my new motto for next year:

"when I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say "I used everything you gave me." - erma bombeck

I need to do more with my talent...

Hello

Most times I just feel like I don't have a lot to say. My job is very stressful hence why a little over a week ago I was at the drs w a uti and had 2 migraines in 3 days and the second one landed me in the er and hooked up to an iv I got a migraine cocktail which helped but I still had a headache when I left. It was supposed to make me tired (the meds) but I spent all day fri and sat in bed so I had had so much sleep I think that's why I was wide awake.

Somethings I'm in love w @ the moment:

I am so over this heat!!! The humidity is out of control!!! I hope everyone is staying cool.

Totally different subject I have a pinterest account but can't figure out how to start a pin board. I have a new iPad and spend more time on it than my laptop but I have had to learn how to do a lot of stuff differently. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

This is about connections. The other half was giving me a hard time about my blog saying I can't believe you would talk about anything that interesting that someone would want to read about it. Some people just don't get it!!! I'm not mad about it but it's the connection. Life is so crazy all the time it's nice to read about someone's life being happy and slow. What a would consider normal stuff. Pictures from the day, the good things even the bad ones. It's life and the connections we make grow into friendships sometimes. I just really love blogging and all the wonderful people that share that little bit of their life with me.
So here's to bloggin and everyone who's involved!!! Happy Wednesday.

Wow I can't believe it's almost been a month since my last post. My new addiction is pinterest. I just love this site.








Looking for a sofa to put in my new studio it's a small space so I can't do anything big and bulky but I love these 3.

so my stray cat that has been here for 2 years is now living at my brothers. my parents came and got her and took her out there sat am. she has been killing a lot of little critters and leaving the mess for the dogs to find. my other half had had it and said she's got to go. my mom was going to keep her at home but not being declawed and being a wild kitty she may go stir crazy inside and tear up stuff. i think my mom will bring her back in and keep her bcuz she's worrird about a fox or coyote getting her. my brother lives way out in the country. i hope she will be okay.

Well I haven't forgotten about my little blogspot work has just kept me busy. But I did purchase a new iPad some I'm way excited. It's so much more portable than my laptop.

Went to b&n and got the new artful blogging and wear women create can't wait to open and read them. It always makes me smile when the new issues come out. Such eye candy in them.

My studio outback is in and painted will post pics but still need to paint the floor.
Hope everyone's safe with all the bad weather we've had.
