I am a blog hypocrite!!!!!!!!!!

Here I sit,hanging my head in shame when I realize that day after day I check blogs and get annoyed that they are not updated to give me that tidbit of entertaining info that I need.............and then it dawns on me in a lightbulb fashion that I am one of them!

Sorry for the delay,but not much of any significance has been happening in my life,other than sickness.The kids have had several rounds of colds and the flu mess,and now I have this terrible cough that won't leave.It wakes me up at night, and I feel like I'm strangling in my own juices......TMI eh?

Well this is short and sweet,but at least now that I have diagnosed my hypocritical blog nature,I might be willing to do something about it more often.

Oh and someone tagged me.I am to list 7 random things about myself,so here I go

1.I was the only child born on White Head in 1971
2.I can't swim
3.I'm not above using whiskey for medicinal purposes.......lol
4.I love to be by myself and in a group setting.......strange eh?
5.My bladder has gone South
6.I am a movie critic.....I need just the right type of movie to watch
7.I prayed for my freckles when I was younger,because my brother had them and I didn't.Now I wish they would leave!

Frig..........

Just forget me saying that I left you with 2 layouts,because I see that I started you with them.Some day I will get on to when to include things. I thought they would be uploaded at the end of my post,but they got in at the first.Oh well..........

Ever hear a song.................

that makes you flash back to your youth? Oh, the days.........I just heard Rick Springfield's "Jesse's Girl" on the radio as I drove Dave back to work.I cranked it up and didn't let my hair blow in the breeze as I was too freaking cold! Anyway, I love those moments that make me feel not quite as old.

I am so bad in blogging lately.........Not much new in my life.March break is over thankfully and the kids are back in school,so I have a little more me time. I love having them home,but I don't enjoy the constant bickering. We did manage to get away for a couple of long boring snowed in days.

Everyone is home from Florida and Julie is pumped to go. I can't stop searching and reading and looking. I have become possessed with this. I love to plan fun! I could be payed to plan other peoples fun. I think that would be an awesome job.Fun,fun,fun.........I love to have fun. I will probably only get to Disney once with my kids and I want it to be a trip to remember. I want them to have the time of their lives and be filled with that magical feeling the whole time they are there.

I have been scrapping some,and I have found out that I am the embellinator.I know,my own little word,but I don't know what else to call it. I can't stop..........I want more and more flowers,more chipboard,more bling!!!!!!!!!! Speaking of that.......I made a little E-Bay purchase today. I ordered some Maya Road chipboard hearts and stars. I never knew they sold them all painted. I got neutral colors.You can always paint them.While I was at it, I figured that I might just as well through in some office sheers..........tee hee, I made myself all giddy submitting that order.Next on my E-bay list of must haves are those stinking cute little Prima Pop Up Birds.....Like who doesn't like a Pop Up Bird........LOL.Then on my quest to find them, I found that they have pop up dragon flies,hearts,stars and oh yes tags and bookplates......I tell ya, I nearly Popped out of my chair.There was a whole lot of purring going on.

Ok enough senseless banter from me.....I'll leave you with a couple of my recent LO's.The Teddy Bear one was for the MPC. We were to rough it up..........and rough it up I did. I was tearing and sanding, inking and ripping. I love this look on a LO.The next LO was one I did for Pencil Lines.I have sooooooo many pictures of Jenna's wedding to scrap.I know that they are now split up,but I love the pictures and who knows, maybe they will get back together,but for now I need those pics.and I'm a gonna use them.Not to mention that many of them have the world's cutest little flower girl in them!

Ok so I am not quite sure how to get the picture and my writing all in one post.I took this picture of a new house while sailing into the harbor on our ferry.It isn't hard to tell that this is a summer home owned by someone from away.Someone who doesn't realize how much wind and freezing spray that they are going to get.Not to mention the fact that the drive way up to the house is pretty scary.Scary like the plumber couldn't get up the hill and started rolling back and smashed his van up.Oh well, it is a new addition to the island and you,yes you could rent it for $1000 a week!Let's get those telephones ringing girls:)

I think I might feel some mojo starting to bubble up within me.Could be gas,who knows.....lol. I was just searching some blogs and WOW!!!!!!!!! there is some awesome talent out there. My mind is whirling.I think that some of these ladies must have everything they need right at their fingertips,kinda like Macgyver or however you spell it.Honestly, I have never seen so many embellishments! I love embellishments.Can't wait for the new CHA stuff to start rolling in.

Good Sunday Morning:)

LOL

Ok I will be right back ladies.You are so lucky that I got one pic. uploaded because my second time I got them uploaded,but they were not the pictures that I chose.Couldn't be, I couldn't of done something wrong.......LOL.I think once I get the hang of this, you will be sick and tired of seeing my pictures. I am going to play sneaky like Vanessa and just show a tiny bit of a picture.

I should actually play Stump The Dummy with you guys.This is a new facebook group from around here. People take pictures and we have to post what they are or where they are taken.Dh guessed one last night and was pretty impressed with himself. Some of them are so hard,and have never been figured out. The people who took the pictures will give hints after a bit.Sneaky and right up my alley.Stay tuned for a Stump The Dummy Julie D Style:)

A Layout I finished recently:)
