Feeding My Addiction

It could be worse. It could be MUCH worse. I have a paper addiction and have purchased a few things to feed that particular addiction...just thought I'd show y'all what I've been working on...


Can you believe I'm working on Halloween?? Some people have already started on Christmas!!

Some Good / Some Bad...

Part of the day was good, and part of the day was not so good. Went over to my favorite hangout, Dragonfly Rubber Stamps and met some great new people! We hung out for a bit, chatted, checked out some new craft supplies, laughed, and shopped! Met a fabulous new friend named Stephanie who I hope to learn alot from as she is a Cricut expert!

Came home with my bag of loot and Lady is acting VERY strange. She wasn't herself earlier either, and I wasn't sure just what was going on. She always sleeps on my bed...actually on my pillow. Today when I woke up, she was under the bed. She does hang out there sometimes, but never, ever at night time. So, I was a bit confused. Especially because I had to coax her out from under the bed just to go out to do her business. THAT never happens!! Then I realized as I watched her more closely, that she was not doing ANY climbing....up on the couch...or in her LookOut Seat...or up on the bed. We have little sets of stairs for the two couches in the living room and one set of stairs going up to the bed in the bedroom. Normally, she cruises up those things...no problem!! Not today. NADA. When I tried to pick her up, she SCREAMED bloody murder. It was heart-wrenching and I am quite sure that my neighbors were wondering what was going on!! This happened twice when I tried very carefully to pick her up. It seems to me that she must have fallen or sprained something. I called the local animal hospital and they said they'd be happy to see her....on MONDAY! It's Thursday night for God's sake. This makes me nuts!!! So, I send a note out to my bichon "team" and got some advice on what to do next. I will be camped out at the vet's tomorrow until they agree to see me. Come hell or high water, SOMEBODY is going to take a look at my LadyBug. I have given her 1/2 of a children's aspirin and that seemed to make a difference, as she is at least able to rest. I am trying not to move her much. I hope she feels better in the morning...send us some good vibes...please!

Not Much to Say...

Spending wayyyyyyyy too much time and $$$$$$ here at Dragonfly Rubber Stamps!! Back soon with samples....Hope everyone is having a great weekend!!

What a Great Day!

There are some days that are just happy, feel-good kind of days!! Today was one of those days. Spent the afternoon socializing with many of my friends at
Dragonfly Rubber Stamps. They were having their 5th Annual Wine & Cheese Event. Thanks Annabelle!! Checked out several new papers, stampsets, and embellishments. Made some great cards!! Back home to check on the dogs and off to the Texas Roadhouse for dinner with my husband and his fraternity brother. The man is absolutely hilarious!! Did you ever see "Weekend at Bernie's??" This guy is like Bernie's twin!! Hardly could eat I was laughing so hard!! And the folks at our local Texas Roadhouse always make the evening fun with a little Texas Two Steppin'. Our waitress was fabulous. First thing I did when I got home was send them an email letting them know how great we think their new restaurant is. So many people only let these establishments know when the service is bad, or the food is bad, or the atmosphere was bad. I worked in Customer Service for a Fortune 500 company for many years and I believe it is VERY important to praise the good!!! A little bit of recognition goes a L O N G way!! Cheers!!
