I’m done! Phew! I finally finished my Art Journal tonight! And guess what….Rhonna is getting ready to start another one! And I’m just finishing this one! Ü
But.
DUDE.
I.
Finished.
I was trying to be Kelli Crowe with my single word per line posting. Doesn’t really work when I do it! Here ya go! My last three days:
I totally ran out of steam at the end. I think it was a mistake to go with the same color scheme and group of papers through out the whole journal. I was getting pretty tired of it by the end! Ü
Do ya wanna see the aftermath of creating? Pretty skeeeeeery:
Nice, eh? I’m dreading the clean up!
G’night! Tomorrow is Friday! WOO HOO! We may even get a FULL baseball game in! We are supposed to have BEA-U-TIFUL weather tomorrow!
Days 14 – 18! I’m still plugging along, hoping to finish tonight. I think my mistake was doing 2 pages per day! Ü Oh well! This 21 day challenge is a 42 day challenge for me!
Or quite possibly my year! Seriously! I check her blog often (okay, A LOT), I think she is an amazing talent! She was a CK Hall Of Fame winner last year, and she is just amazing! So, today when I checked her blog and noticed her list of predictions….I thought COOL….I’ll check see who she has predicted (since the HOF 2006 winners were posted today)….and I’m reading, and scanning, and I see the name Allison Moll. I keep reading, and scanning….WAIT? Did that say Allison Moll? Check back. Yep. It said Allison Moll. Like as in ME? Ali Moll? WOW! How cool is that? Sadly, I didn’t enter HOF this year. I just didn’t have it in me. No scrappin’ MOJO! BUT, I seriously (yes, I am a dork) feel like I won…. just cause Sande predicted I would! I’m flattered. Truly. I’m HAPPY! My day has been made! Thank you Sande! UNLESS, there is another Allison Moll (that scrapbooks) out there…. is there? If so, come out, come out wherever you are!
And, so you believe me…. here is a link to her blog: Sande Krieger You have to scroll down to the post titled "Hanging with the Girls"…BUT, there I am, ALI MOLL, #4. WOO HOO! Also, check out her post above that one…her son Ski, won a full ride scholorship to the U of U! COOL!!!!
The braces, that is! After 2.5 LONG years, Tyson’s braces finally came off this afternoon! YIPPEEEE!!! Now he just needs to go back in for one final check up and teeth whitening (his ortho includes this with all patients), and he’ll be FREE!!!
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.
