Here are more pages of my Art Journal…..slowly but surely getting it done! Ü
PHEW! That was a chore! Anyway, only 10 more days to go! LOL! This is more like a 42 day challenge for me! Ü
Are you wearing your GREEN today? I am! We are having corned beef sandwiches at work today. Along with yummy spinach and artichoke dip! MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
Hope you all have a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day!!!!
Photos from my LOVELY 1 hour and 50 minute commute to work this morning!
And no, I wasn’t technically driving when I took these…. I was at a stop in traffic. Lovely, huh??? The only good thing about a March snowstorm…..IT MELTS FAST!
Heaven for Tyson anyway! Cereal is pretty much a seperate food group for that kid! He eats a few bowls of cereal every morning before school, plus a protein shake. On school days, he doesn’t have cereal for lunch (that I know of! I’m sure he would if he could). The minute he gets home from school, baseball, football or basketball practice he has another 1-2 bowls. It doesn’t matter if dinner is 2 minutes from being done…HE MUST HAVE CEREAL! And then he can eat another 1-2 bowls before bed! Craziness! Of course, I’m pretty sure he gets it from my brother, his Uncle Chris! Froot Loops were a main staple in his diet as well!
So….. randomness for Tuesday, eh? Happy Tuesday! Go have a bowl of cereal!
Holy Crap! We got hit with some major snow yesterday! It snowed, and it snowed and it kept on snowing! For most of the day! Here is the view outside my front door at 10:00 am yesterday morning:
We got tons more than this photo shows! Crazy!
Also, I remembered to take some photos of a few of my Art Journal pages! Here are a few more "days":
I’m making progress with the habit of getting to bed earlier! A few nights, I even went to bed without turning the TV on! Can you imagine? Ü The creating habit is going good as well. Unfortunately, I’m not always creating in my art journal! But it is still creating, right?
AND a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that has commented my blog and sent me emails! It means a ton to me! And I LOVE that I have met some new friends! Thanks again!
I got nothin’ at all to post about?!?!?! What is up with that? No fun pictures, not fun anecdotes so share, no cool sports stuff to talk about….. Hmmmmmm….BORING! Here are a few things on my mind right now:
We had a major little snowstorm yesterday morning. Not fun.
We are supposed to be in Moab right now, home of this… NO, not to see this, but for a baseball tournament. It was on, then it was off, then it was on again. Finally, at 4:30 yesterday afternoon (1 hour before the team is to board the bus for the trip down there), it was off again. Bummer.
I’m ready for baseball season, but the weather IS NOT cooperating.
I hate my job.
Madi’s softball team, UTAH STING has 2 scrimmage games tonight (Inside ~ Woo Hoo).
I ate sushi for lunch today (fish on friday during Lent Ü), and I have a tummy ache. That can’t be good.
I hate my job.
I love diet coke.
We are attending a "gala" tomorrow night to celebrate the 40th season coaching of our high school basketball coach. Dinner & dancing. Should be fun.
I don’t know what to wear to above mentioned "gala".
I have been to bed EVERY NIGHT before midnight, since starting my art journal. One night I was even in bed before ten! Imagine that!
I have NOT created every day since starting my art journal.
I hate my job. Did I mention that already?
My dream is to work for a scrapbook company. I live in Utah for heavens sake, how hard can it be to find a job at one of the many, many scrapbook companies here.
Apparently, pretty hard. Ü
It is nice and sunny today. BUT COLD.
I am wishing for spring. Desperately.
I got a cut and highlight last night. Love that!
I love to read other people’s blogs.
How come everyone’s life seems so much more exciting than mine?
Is my life exciting?
Yep.
I love my life
Really I do.
HAPPY FRIDAY TO YOU ALL! Have the BEST weekend ever! Maybe I’ll have Somthin’ on Monday!
Yep, still plodding along. Although, I’ve decided that my MAKE habit (CREATE everyday) and my BREAK habit (getting to bed EARLIER), may contradict each other! By the time we get home from work, get dinner on the table and get the kids taken care of, it is ‘sorta’ LATE! And if I want to CREATE, I might not get to bed early! Hmmmm….. what to do about this? Maybe just do just ‘a little’ CREATING on the weekdays and get to bed EARLY, and then ‘more’ CREATING on the weekends, but get to bed a ‘bit’ LATER! Sounds like a plan, eh? Thanks to Rhonna for posting the most AMAZING and INSPIRING quote each day for our challenge! AWESOME! Oh, to have just the tiniest bit of her talent!!!! If you’ve never seen her work, check it out on her blog, or here, or even here.
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! The Judge Memorial Bulldogs defeated Tooele on Saturday night for the 3A STATE BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP! What an exciting game! We had such a fun time "tailgating" before the game and being part of such A HUGE GAME! The stands were full of fans, and the student section, led by the 6th man club, was full as well! I am SOOOO EXCITED for the players, students, and coaches! GO BULLDOGS!
So, I have decided to participate in Rhonna’s 21 Day Art Journal Challenge! It is a challenge to conquer or create a habit. Apparently, it takes 21 days to make or break a habit, hence the 21 day Art Journal Challenge. I’m using a small 7 gypsies album, along with some Li’l Davis stickers, Foofala Papers and some other fun things. I chose 2 habits…. One to break, and one to make. My habit to BREAK is my LATE NIGHTS! I need to get more sleep! I have the hardest time getting up in the morning! My habit to MAKE is to CREATE EVERYDAY! I have been in a scrapping rut lately and need to get my MOJO flowing. Hopefully, this will be the way. Excuse the horrible photos! I don’t know what is up with my digi camera. YUCK! I’m still missing one quote for day #1, but I’ll add that later tonight.
In other news…. THE BULLDOGS are Rockin’ it in the 3A State Tournament! They beat Logan in double overtime yesterday to move on to the Semi’s. Tonight we play Pine View! If we win, we advance to the Championship Game tomorrow! Woo Hoo! GO BULLDOGS!!!! Happy Friday! I hope you all have a wonderful day!
GO BULLDOGS! With a record of 20-1, we are expected to win the 3A State Championship. HOWEVER, you just never know! We play Delta tomorrow at 7:00 pm @ home! If we win that, we move to the quarterfinals at the Dee Events Center in Ogden. If all goes well, the JUDGE MEMORIAL BULLDOGS will be claiming their State Championship trophy next Saturday night! Although, Tyson’s season on the sophomore and JV teams came to and end last Friday night, with wins agains rival Park City…. we are thrilled and excited for our varsity team. GO BULLDOGS! A few photos below, of Tyson at the Park City games last Friday night. Congrats on a GREAT season Tyson! We are very proud of you and look forward to watching you play on the varsity team next year!
The Science Fair. Why, oh why, is this a requirement EVERY SINGLE YEAR from 3rd grade through 8th at Madison’s school? I don’t like science. Madi doesn’t like science. I dread it every year. Madi dreads it every year. BUT, every year we ‘git ‘er done’. UGH! Of course there are tears shed (by both of us!), and late nights, but when it is done, I guess we feel relief that "YES! We did it"! One more year down and only one more to go! Here is Madi’s science fair project:
It was actually a pretty cool experiment (Thanks Carl!)….. When you add a pack of Mentos to a 2 Liter of Coke….. It explodes 8 feet in the air! Cool beans!
