Let’s do the tootsie roll! hee hee hee! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOO glad today is Friday! You have NO idea! – I have something I am doing tomorrow that I am UBER stoked about! I AM GETTING MY HAIR CUT!!! Oh and it’s not just a trimmy-poo – nope it’s gettin’ CHOPPED! Yes, I didn’t mistype – I am getting brave and going to a BOB. Yep, no stutterin’ – a BOB! Think Victoria Beckham bob – not Katie Holmes-Cruise! I can’t wait! DH is actually ok with it too – well, even if he wasn’t, I would say – GET OVER IT! LOL – I love him but I am SICK of my hair now! So anyhoo, you betcha I’ll get some new pics of it. I am kinda nervous though – what if I don’t like it?
So, couple things to share today. I have been a scrappin’ fool this week since I am on a 2 week hiatus (vacation) and won’t be home to do my DT work or ANY for that matter – beginning Friday July 18th. (2 days before my b-day! yay – this will be the first b-day in about 11 years that I have spent with my family). We are going to TX to spend some time with family so I can’t wait!
The first one is the Design eXperiment challenge #17. You had to scrap “the good, bad and ugly” about yourself. I love this blog and this is the first (of many more to come) challenges I’ve sat down to do. Seriously do yourself a favor and just pop over there and check out all the amazing talent from the DT. Inspiring ladies they are.
(sorry for the photo of me being a little whacked/blurry but ya know how those self portraits can be! – LOL). Oh, and so sorry for the awful and very sucky pic of the layout – it’s been rainy all week with no sun in sight until next week. ugh – love the rain – hate it when trying to get pictures though!
Anyhoo – the journaling reads:
“I am not a judgmental person. I am brave, thoughtful, creative, kind, outgoing, beautiful, and genuine. So why is it I judge myself and focus primarily on my faults? Yes, I am moody & sensitive. Yes there are things I could change but I AM A GOOD person. I’ve got to learn to love ME…..the GOOD, BAD & UGLY! ”
And the last (but CERTAINLY NOT least) thing I just want to share with you is my layout from this week’s sketch over at Triple the Sketch. It’s based off this week’s sketch # 15. I had a lot of fun with this one and the other ladies did a phenom job on it – go check it out and play with us!
So you remember this little guy? and the big ol’ hoot I got from him? And how I said he reminded me of Napoleon Dynomite? HECK YES – I OF COURSE had to scrap about it! And this sketch was the PERFECT match to do it!! He so just cracks me up with the shaggy hair and buck teeth! GOSH! hee hee hee………
so that’s it for today y’all. I will TRY to get some pics of the new “me” sometime this weekend. If the stinkin’ weather would start cooperating! It’s been a stormy week! Not that I am complaining – it’s just hell for taking pics! but I promise I will update asap with new pics!
Aight! I outie for now! Peace!
