Awe... Pretty blog...

I have to say that Kim over at Today's Creative Blog is the Blog Queen! I have been searching and searching for a cute blog template... I KNEW they were somewhere, but I never could find the kind I was looking for... that is, free... and cute... When I checked in today, Kim had a posting on not one, but TWO sites for some great blog templates! Hurray!! I hurried on over to LeeLou and browsed around.... BIG mistake.... it made it harder to choose! So now, I may just play musical blogs and rotate between some of my favorites. I swear... those Photoshop guys never cease to amaze me! Some of her backgrounds look like she made them from deeply textured beautiful paper.... WOW! Stop on by and see for yourself...

Summertime!

I had to snap a picture of our neighborhood's resident Canadian geese... It must still be cold somewhere, b/c they don't seem to want to go home yet! And it's like 1000 degrees here!!!!!



And THIS... well, I just had to share... If any of you guys wonder if the 3-D sidewalk chalk really works, well, check this out! Pretty cool stuff!



Oh well, at least we still have a nice breeze to play in!... Have a great summer weekend!

"Friends"

How many of you guys consider people you've met online as "friends"? Honestly, I used to laugh at the idea. I guess I didn't "get" the whole internet "dating" thing. Anyway, I've been "talking" and talking to a group of ladies on a private sewing forum. And to several of y'all in blogland. And I really feel like I've made some great Friends, not "friends". I love dropping in and seeing what new things you've discovered (Kim), or what new thing you've made (Beki and Vanna)... and dozens of other places that I've found others who have similar interests- and seeing all of the exceedingly great talent!

My sewing buddies have brilliant ideas... and have SUPERB skills. They are who I aspire to be when I grow-up :-) This week, I kind of forced my excitement to a new level... shocker, I know... I set us up with a group etsy market, and blog because it's just not fair to not share. We're working hard to get our ducks in a row to start loading things in... but BOY! How exciting!!! I'm sure I'll be posting the "grand opening" when we start filling our shop!

Sexy, Sexy, No?

my new baby...

I am the proud owner of a new Touch... I feel SOOOO cool... and young! :-) ... and unfortunatly now, broke as well! Nearly at least.

My trip to New Orleans, and later time spent at Harrahs was good enough to me that I just bought my OWN iPod... Yep, it's Mine... ALL Mine.... and NO, I don't think I will be sharing it with anyone, Thank you very much.

Now to just figure out how to move everything to my laptop....

Anyone have a 12 year old who'd be willing to teach me?!
