This, That & Then Some

 

I have been a bad blogger according to some of my friends….SORRY! Seems once I blog it’s either a lot or a little. Oh well I’m trying not to stress over things lately and enjoy some time off and resting here and there.

Weekend was nice with some cleaning and laundry. We watched the fireworks down by the river in NYC on Friday night. I realized I’m not that big into fireworks as I once was when I was a kid. It was raining and there were tons of stupid people all around me drinking, smoking and well just being stupid! Since we are 1 block away from the main viewing area of the fireworks it would be silly to stay home and watch on tv but next year I might think about it. LOL!

Saturday we spent the day hanging with our niece, nephew and the family in NJ. Poor Jackson has poison ivy all over his face and arms but he is taking it like a real trooper though. We had fun and watched them Saturday night. While they were asleep John and I played Wii. Love tennis and bowling but it’s tiring. My arm is still killing me. I also had the chance to play around with my stamps too. I realized why I stopped using stamps – too much cleaning is involved. I swear I spent more time cleaning off my stamps and area then I did actually stamping. 

So yesterday I stubbed my toe so badly I think I may have broke it! I didn’t think it was that bad but it hurt all night and today it’s completely bruised and hard to walk on. I’m just hoping it gets better and goes away. I really don’t want to have to go to the doctor. I’m sick of the doctor!!!

On a final note special birthday shout out to my friend Kelly’s twin girls – Brianna & Corinne who turn 3 today as well as my friend, Dan!! Happy Birthday!

 

June Babies

Happy Birthday to our nephew Jackson who turns 4 today! I can’t believe it’s been 4 years already. Look how tiny he was and now he’s all grown up. Awwwww! And a belated birthday shout out to my cousin and goddaughter Kayla who’s 2nd birthday was Saturday. I’ll post the cutiest picture of her tomorrow =)

Things I’m Lovin

Just chillin this weekend and enjoying some time off. Woo hoo! Been listening to George Michael all weekend and rockin out. LOL!

10_things_list.jpg

Put together this list since I was going to blog about a few things I’m totally diggin’ lately. Then I came across this cute list freebie from Nicole Seitler and Sugarplum Paperie and thought it was perfect.

One other thing I mentioned on my top 10 list was Gina’s baby cards. She is on my CT and did some wonderful baby cards with some of my products. They are so cute!

Hope you are having a good weekend. Need to get a few more things done off the To Do list.

Toodles,

1st Birthday

This weeknd was our niece, Kayley’s 1st birthday party. Can’t believe she is going to
be 1 on Thursday! Where does the time go? Here are a few photos from the party. I also did a scrapbook to recap her 1st year which you can see featured in the bottom photo. Once I credit all the assets I can post some of the layouts. With every book I do I think I’m getting better and better. LOL!

Had off today as well as yesterday from work. It was so nice to have some time at home and not feel stressed from work. I was very productive today and after 8 loads of laundry I’m beat!

Have a good Wednesday!

I Spy Spy Daddy!

vic-sighting.jpg

This morning on the way to work I saw one of my favorite actors, Victor Garber (a.k.a Spy Daddy from Alias)! I was on the bus going to work and as we approached the corner I saw someone on the corner who looked like him. I did a double take as it was the morning (still tired and in a sleepy haze) and looked really carefully and concluded it was him. He was on his cell phone dressed in black from what I remember. I’m a huge fan of his and love him. I thought about getting off the bus and scooping him out but alas common sense kicked in as I had to go to work. I told John what happened this morning and he was like, “You didn’t get off the bus?!!”. LOL! So maybe I should have but oh well. I’m so happy to have finally seen him. I emailed gawker.com that tracks celebrity sightings and they posted it. It all made me smile.

On a different note, happy birthday to my MOM!! Woo hoo, Mom Sweeney! Hope you have a great day!

Birthday & Cards

Birthday shoutout to my CT member Jaime….Happy Birthday!!

Still trying to get over this cold and cough. It just won’t go away. And this weather is weird and not helping. It was 20 degrees last week and now it’s 65 degrees. What the hell is going on with our planet? Yikes.

Before I forget check out all these nifty card templates I put together for Pink Ink. I love how they came out and I’ll be putting them up in my store soon. Thanks to all the peeps in the photos too =)
