♥♥♥♥♥HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY♥♥♥♥♥


HaHa! I used hearts again in my title. Wish I could color them. Oh well.

Happy Mother's Day! And as Dreama said in the last blog comments....that goes to Moms everywhere....including Mommies with fur-babies!

I am very lucky to still have my Mom with me to be able to celebrate this day with. We usually get her a hanging basket. So does my sister. Terri started this first with ordering the most beautiful hanging baskets from Sweet Adeline's. We have been ordering their baskets and patio pots every year for about 6 years now. Not real sure. Anyway, last year we ordered mom 2, so this year Terri wanted to order them. I had planned on getting mom a plant or something to take over there today, but hubby changed those plans.

He just gave me tickets to see American Idol! I can't wait to see Adam and Allison live! Sweet! But here is the deal....he bought the tickets twice. He grabbed some really good seats up a little bit on the side right next to the stage. Then he tried again just to see what would come up.....FLOOR SEATS!!!!! 18 Rows back! So he grabbed those! My mom and Terri love Idol too, so I am going to give them the other seats.

FUNFUNFUNFUNFUN!!!!!!!!!!!!

♥♥Beth Day♥♥



This is Beth's card. I think she is going to still add some ribbon down the left side. I suggested yellow to make the centers of the daisey's pop!

I spent the day today with my friend Beth making cards. I love this day. The only thing is we work so hard that the day goes way too fast. She made the most amazingly detailed card. It took her the entire afternoon. I, of course, just slapped some paper together and added some kind of embellishment and called it good! She completely made her card. She used a stamp to make the background paper, she quilled all of the flowers and crimped all the the leaves. Oiy....it was a lot of work, but it's beautiful. And she made the little pot for the flowers. I can't wait to try to make one myself!





I'm pooped, so this is all ya get today....

Shut up Mind.....Harrison Watch

This is Bryan and Katie. Bryan is the one doing all the NON-touching!
This one just cracks me up!
______________________________________________

Is it just me or does everyone hold conversations with themselves in their head? My mind will not shut up. Especially when I drive. OK...now I just sound weird. When I drive I have a running commentary going on. Constantly. I can write an entire movie script in my head when I drive to Seattle. I can have conversations with people who I have never met. Lets just say...Oprah. I start thinking about what I would say to Oprah if I ever ran into her somewhere, like a party. Like that would ever happen! But I will have an entire conversation with her....in my head. How weird is that???? I know....I'm scaring you aren't I??? When I was coming back to work from my lunch break, I was driving along down the freeway and someone quickly took an exit when it was almost too late. You know when someone drives through the median area and they kick up all the dirt and crap that is in there because no one ever drives through there. Well that same thing happened this morning, at the same exit, except that this morning the person decided to NOT take the exit. So they drove through all of that same dirt and crap. So in my mind I'm thinking..."That happened this morning, but they were coming on, and that guy was getting off. Did I just say that guy was getting off???? " Well that made me start laughing. So here I am driving down the freeway cracking up at myself.


Now I'm wondering....Am I just crazy????
Harrison Watch......Have not seen him yet. Someone needs to call his Manager and tell them that Harrison is more than welcome to come down to the office and I'll personally give him a tour of the house! Maybe after the tour we can go out for a bite to eat! (i have not held this conversation in my head....yet!)

Nothing to Say....But I will keep a look out for Harrison Ford!

I have come here so many times today just to leave. I have not had anything worth saying. I have a lot of stuff going on in my head, but nothing I want to write about. Does that make sense? It does to me. I have things that I want to talk about, but some of it I have talked about before so I don't want to repeat. Some of it is about other people, so I don't want to talk about them. Just doesn't feel right. So I will be back tomorrow. I will be in search of something funny or interesting to talk about. But don't count on it being funny OR interesting! LOL!
Looking forward to Survivor coming on. Man.....can we get rid of Coach already???!!!
Idol...Sad to see Allison go. I really liked her. But someone had to go and I liked all of the Top 4. She will be fine. I may actually buy her CD.
When is So You Think You Can Dance going to start? Can't wait!
Harrison Ford, Brendan Fraiser and Keri Russell are in town filming a movie. They will be at a bowling alley across town, and also just a few blocks from my work place! So cross your fingers that they will have some down time and they just happen to take a little walk, or drive East and...oooo...look at those old houses! Maybe we should see if we can take a little tour in one of them. Gee Harrison...do you think that one could be haunted? Do you think they will take us up to the third floor where the ghost is???
COME ON OVER GUYS! We'll give you a tour! LOL!

To Diet or Not to Diet.....

I feel for Kirstie Alley. She came out and confessed to gaining back all the weight she lost with Jenny Craig...and then some. That is what we do. We work our asses off and lose weight only for it to come back on with what someone just said to me in an email....it comes back and brings friends along. I know exactly what my problem is. I need to exercise. I will not lose weight unless I do. So I need to start walking again. And then get back on the elliptical machine. I should call my sister and see if she wants to start walking again. She has been able to keep the weight off that she lost. But she has also been exercising. She will say not as much as she should be, but I'm pretty sure she exercises more than she says. She also thinks she is fat in certain areas, like her tummy. I think she looks great. But isn't that what women do? Pick at their own bodies. I hate this, I hate that....and so on. We are never happy with what we have. I'm not happy at all with my weight gain. But I'm also not doing anything about it. So tonight I will. I will call my sister and see if she would like to start walking again. Hopefully she won't be too busy with work still. She has been working a lot of overtime. We'll see.....
