Change of Plans

Instead of riding 4 wheelers and picnicing today, I ended up cleaning out my storage closet, laundry and touching up some paint on the walls. Somehow I got screwed out of a fun day....but no matter I actually got a few things accomplished that I have been putting off forever....it's that procrastination thing again. Procrastination and I have become pretty good friends lately, but I tell ya........it's a toxic relationship and one that I'm gonna have to end pretty soon. Breakups are really hard, so I'll have to wait for the right time.

I was able to throw together a layout of my daughters spring school pictures. I don't know about all the rest of you, but as of yesterday......we are out for the summer!!!! Yeah! This layout is based on sketch 1 over at Triple the Sketch...and I just have to say that I LOVE SKETCHES. You should definately check them out, their design team rocks!! I found out about them because I actually stalk Shanna's blog and she's on the DT...she does amazing work. Anyway, the layout looks much better in real life. It's done in greens, browns, and white. The little sentiment says "just be you". I put some sparkly stuff on it too, but with the crappy picture it's hard to see. My goal in the future is to take a photog class and get a better camera.....it'll be awhile though...cuz I want a really really really nice camera and I have to save the moolah first.

So, I've been thinking of getting into stamping a little more lately, just because I stalk a bunch of stamping blogs and these ladies are so talented, some of the creations they come up with using stamps are amazing. And when I grow up I want to be just like them... ;0)

I found out a few days ago that Moonlight will not be renewed for next year. I LOVED Moonlight, LOVE me a good vampire show and that Mick....HELLO HOT STUFF!! So I have to say what the heck people???.....and a lot of other shows that I started watching and liked...like K-Ville, Journeyman, Blood Ties.......not coming back. They are taking good shows away and putting on more crappy fake "reality" programs. Plus, what they did to us with 24......not getting my weekly dose of that until the beginning of next year...ahhhh.. I don't get it... I guess the upside is that I won't watch so much t.v.

For a change tonight , instead of watching a movie or t.v. I'm going to read. I'm reading Plum Lucky by Janet Evonovich, if you've never read her.......I highly recommend the Stephanie Plum series. She is hysterical, I laughed so hard I was crying, I can't remember which book, but they are all easy reads and fun. If you get offended by the occasional foul word though, I suggest you steer clear.

So, enough of my rambling. Hope all 3 of you that read my blog have a great rest of the weekend. ;) Later
