Sorry, its been a while !
Sorry all it has been a while. I use to often use my afternoon break for time in the day for a short post or so. Well we can no longer do that. So nights are busy and it gives me less time to get on this PC. For that I am sorry. I hope you are all well. I will post a pic.. once my flowers are bigger and you can see them in my new flower box. I love it and the man who made it for me. Hhehehehe!
Hope you all had a good and safe holiday weekend.
The weather was not as good as we would have liked.
Boat rides where at a preium, when we could actually get on the lake and take one. So 2 was it on a 4 day weekend. Sad.. sad ! I sooo omuch LOVE being on the water !
We got ALOT of chores done at the lake, and I mean ALOT. I don't bore you with the list. But we are all good to go for our next visit and Grandma can arrival to a clean place and what a great feeling it will be.
I even bought and plants pots of flowers everywhere on the deck !
Anyhow..... I am off for now !!!
I will catch up again later.... all !
Drop me a comment or an email. Love to hear from you all.

This might be a book !
Well I have alot to share...
First of all, I want to say Hi to Mary, ... nice to see you again Mary. Thanks for stopping over and seeing all the things we did to the house. Looks alot different since the last time you saw it a few years ago ... right !
Nice to visit with you ! Hope all goes well with the bany. Keep us posted !
Ahhhh I had MANY many things planned tonight!
It looks at if.. Mother Nature might have changed plans with out consulting me first ! Ahhh anyhow....
I had plan's to get some last mintue plant and flower planting before the big... long.. holiday weekend.
But with the rain literally POURING down right now.. don't think that will get done tonight.. or quickly !
I have to give BIG THANKS.... to my Dearest Jesse !!!
MY WISH WAS HIS COMMAND !!!!!!!!
Or so it seems. I had wanted a flower box for the front of the house. So now I have one. I got the materials...Jes put it all together and I painted it. I now have a six foot. That's right... six foot planter box. Ahhh talk about Curb Appeal. Now all is left is to fill with flowers. Once that is done and the flowers are growing over. I will be sure to post a pic or two to share.
Let me tell you when we get done with our other projects it's going to look great !
Work has been very busy as you all know. It has been for weeks now. But so has home life.
The wedding is growing closer by the day. I find myself a bit in panic mode and the list is getting longer.
This weekend we are going to my grandparents cabin.
Long weekend, enjoy the outdoors, get out on the lake.
But before the fun there is work, planning... packing.. food to be bought. Clothes to wash. Yard work to do.
A dock to be put in at the cabin, pipes to fix, prep work at the lake. We have HIGH hopes to get alot done up there beside a little fun. We want to get it all cleaned up and fixed up sooo next time... when my grandparents are able to join us. It will be all ready to go ! Plus it is a good time with the rest of the family....
Which if any of you know me... or well... you know that they all mean alot to me !
My to do list is getting longer by the second.
I am trying my best to take a deep breath and know.. I can only do ONE thing at a time. Please ONE person at a time. But it get's hard. Then I wonder when is just a small bit of "ME" time. Those seem to be tooo sledem these days.
Ahhhh i envy the people who get to think of nothing but themselves. Pamper themselves. Do things for themselves. Not have someone else, rely, depend, on them. To have less worries then some of the rest of us.
Now nice life must be.
Can anyone HELP me ????
I have been having a TERRIBLE time with Allergies this year. For months now. When will they ever stop ? What will help ??? Any sugggestions ??? I have tired sooo much and nothing seems to help. I need answers and need them quickly. I need a FIX and soon !! I am sooo tired and tired of feeling this way.
I NEED TO BE BETTER and FAST.
I need to be at the top of my game right now with all I have to do and not sitting at the bottom of the bucket... sorta speak !!!
MUST run...... anyone seen my tennies ????
Love you all... thanks for listening.....
Sick and stressed ...sign' out today

Are you Real ????
Are you Real ???? Are you true ???
I have some questions... for everyone to take just a second to ponder on each question.
Just think about your answers, answer them honesty to yourself. You don't have to tell anyone, just do a check of yourself, your soul, your idea's, your thoughts and then think about those answers in who you are, what you do and how you do it !
Are you REAL ???
1.) Do you do things out of the goodness of your heart?
2.) Do you do things because other's want you to ?
3.) Do you ever forget what is most important ?
4.) Do you forget what reason you are doing something?
5.) Do you neglect or forget sometimes the people closest to you?
6.) Do you act in ways you think others will like ?
7.) Do you pretend to be someone you are not ?
8.) Do you ever do things just to impress someone else?
9.)Do you let other's ever take advantage of you?
10.) Do you ever compete with someone else ?
11.) Do you ever ask yourself why you might do this?
12.) Do you know the real reason why you might do this?
13.) Do you ever strive to be youm regardless of what other people think ?
14.) Can you be yourself ? The REAL you ?
15.) Do you let yourself show ?
16.) Do you let the real you show and let people see that?
17.) Do you stand up for yourself ?
18.) Do you have self respect ?
19.) Do you love yourself, no matter what anyone else thinks ?
20.) Do you ever try to be what others want you to be?
20 A, if so, why ?
21.) Are you good enough for YOU???
22.) Do you pay for attention to people you THINK you want to impress ?
23.) Do you get caught up in things you want, merely because someone else has them ? Not because you truely want them for yourself?
24.) Do you tell people things that aren't true ?
25.) Do you pretend things are a certain why, even when they are not ?
26.) Do you act in fear so other's will like you ?
27.) Do you often look for approval from other's ?
28.) Do you spend time or money on things that 'Really' don't make you happy? But you think they do ?
29.) What do you do for you ?
30.) Do you let people like or dislike you and except it?
31.) Do you think you have self worth ?
32.) If not can you get self worth and what would that take?
33.) Do you invest time in you ?
34.) Do you put other's need often before your own?
These are questions, some easy, some hard. Some to think about.
ARE YOU REAL ???????????????
Are you real all the time? Or just sometime ?
I ask these questions to everyone.
The reason I ask is, often we have the 'WRONG' things in sight or the "WRONG" reason. Sometimes we might not see it about ourselves. We might not think we are doing it. We might deny we are doing or acting a certain way. But other's see it. Other's feel it. Other's take it in.
Goood
Bad
Or Otherwise.
THINK IF YOU ARE REAL ? OR as real with things and your life as you can be!
So many times, in some many different situtations, in some many different people. I see things, actions, that are sad to me, that disappoint me.
I have NEVER claimed to be perfect. I never will be.
I know that. I am not asking for perfection. If we where all perfect, we wouldnt be who we are.
What I am asking is.... Be REAL.
BE WHO YOU ARE...... and except it, don't lie about it.
Don't hide it or deny it, change it if you don't like it. Improve it if you want, grow if you want, make a difference if you want. But we real!
Remember who you are, remember what is important. Remember who is important. For those people and things are what matter. Life is much to short to let these IMPORTANT things pass by.
***** People won't remember what you had or what you owned, People will... remember how you made them feel.*******
Don't do things for show. Do them for love and concern and friendship and honesty.

Card Exchange at Work !!
Look what we did !!!
Twice a year at work all the Stamper's get together and have a card exchange. Over our lunch break, we chat, have fun, and exchange cards. Everyone makes so many of the same card. Then we exchange so when you leave you take home the same amount of cards but each one is different. It is alot of fun !
Anyhow.... here are just a few pic's of all the cards that all recieved. I was going to take some single pic's of the cards but just then my camera died !
I promised to get it all charged up tomorrow and post some more ! Here is so way cute ideas and a bit of inspiration for all you TRUE stampers out there !

Hi Everyone -
Well it is Tuesday already... my last post was Friday.
It has been a busy weekend and looking like a busy week this week as well.
For the first time in my life, I now have allergies. This is all new to me.
I have been, having a hard time with it. Alot of headaches, stuffy nose, both ears are plugged up.. you name it. I have been taking allergie med's daily, some days are better then others. Some days I feel like it is working and other days I don't think it works at all and I feel just terrible. This has been going on for a while now.. for well... almost 2 months. I just don't know when I will get over this or when it will go away. But let's just say I am MORE then ready for them to be over with. Right now as I type. I am on break, at my desk at work. I am feeling very dizzy and I am not sure why. But I am assuming it might have something to do with the allergies.
Anyhow. I have been not feeling well and also tooo busy to post much !
Sorry all !
I hope you all have a wonderful Mother's day. Because you are a Mother, or spend it with yours.
Mine was a great one. I spent mine with 3 Mother's and my Grandmother as well.
First it was a stop at Jesse's parents and then to my parent's for a BBQ.
It was great to see everyone and a bonus to spend some much needed time with my lovely grandparents.
I hope you all have a good week !

What are you doing for Mother's day ???
Are you a Mother ? Are you going to be a Mother ? Happy Early Mother's Day to ALL of you Mothers out there ! I hope you have a wonderful day.
Mother's !!!
What would we do with out them ? Could we do with out them ? Depending on your mother and you.. people might have different answers to those questions.
But I love my Mother.. and My Grandmother !!! They both have always supported me and loved me and I do the same for them.
Whenever I need to vent or talk about something. I know I can always call and talk to my Mom.
We are having a special BBQ for her and grandma on Sunday. My grandfather will be there as well and I am also really looking forward to that as well ! Anytime I get to spend some time with him is always good ! He is soo cute and always has the niceset things to say. He is very pleasant !

Today I found something in a Song
If you know me at all, well then you know I am not a fan of country music. Neither is Jes for that matter. Just does not appeal to me at all. But I have heard a few songs by these guys and thought what the heck I will get the cd. So I did.
At work this morning I nearly started to cry, as I was listening to this cd .. the whole thing for the first time and this song really touched me. It is about a grandma. But the story line is the same, even though my grandpa is the one.
Grandma burned the biscuits
Nearly took the house down with her.
Now she's in assisted livin'
We all knew that day would come.
We knew she was to gone to driveThe day she parked on I-65.
Found her on the shoulder cryin'
She didn't know where she was.
Its like her mind just quit.
Oh but bring up grandpa- its like someone flipped a switch.
A front porch light and a blue Desota,
Couple a straws and a coca cola:
You can see it all goin' down.
A handsome boy in army greenA tear on his face- down on a knee,
Shaky voice- a diamond ring should put you in that town.
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today,
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948.
She takes out his medals,
A cigar box of letters.
Sits and scatters pictures,
Black and whites of days gone by.
We started losin' her when she lost him,
But to hear her carry on you'd swear she's seventeen again
Football games and leaves a'cracklin'
Walkin' her home in his letter jacket,
You can see it all goin' down.
A perfect night on a front porch glider,
Saying goodnight for the next 3 hours.
Her tired eyes glow wild and bright
When she talks about that town.
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today,
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948.
