Wahoo!!!




Envision Mary Tyler Moore throwing her hat up in the air as she walks the streets of Chicago in the opening of the Mary Tyler Moore show. She's happy, carefree, and celebrating something I think. Well, now that I've really dated myself...I just found out I have another published layout out there. And with Cosmo Cricket. Wahoo!!! Sure, almost anybody can be "published" these days but I'm still celebrating because I don't really want to work at this whole "being published" thing and let it happen if it happens...and it's happened again. I think I ended up getting pregnant 3 times with this same philosophy. LOL ! Just wanted to share...gotta go find my flying hat. I may just have to eat it later.
Speaking of eating, I started BOOT Camp today. Not U.S Army boot camp-which I have done by the way, but that is a whole other story-but Fitness Boot Camp. Have you heard of this??? It's a crash course in Fat kids Summer Camp I guess. Needless to say, after my work out this morning at 5:30, all I can think about is how sore I am and how some nachos, ice cream, or pizza would really just make it "all better." Ahhh, a full belly and a nap. I guess my Drill Sargeant did not yell or humiliate me enough this morning. There's no shaming me into being fat. Ugh! No,I'm gonna do it for a month and see how things go, clothes fit, etc... But for now, just celebrating my 15 split seconds of creative fame, even if it is only in my head.

Arggghh ye mateeeys!



Ahh, just in a piratey mood today. Been a workin' on paper mache treasure boxes, looty ( or booty) bags, and with lots of Teresa Collins Junkitz paperzzzz. ( that's in case ya' wern't detectin' the groggly pirate voice that is a-playin in me head) The boys have been dressing up and playing pirates for about a week now, tying each other up, and hiding treasure around the ole' houseboat, drinking pirate swill, and just having general piratey fun. Thank ye' Jack Sparrow for the inspiration. And THANK You Johnny Depp for being Jack Sparrow, but a'last ye' matey, that's another story for another day. Hope everyone is planning on tracking over to Arlington to the big Scrapbook Show and will say HI to the Scrapbook Pad Girls this weekend.

Oh another Buns story...my four your old took off his pajama shirt this morning and said "whew, thank goodness, I didn't grow any buns." Who writes this stuff???

Land HO!!!
