But you do to me what you do

I always seem to start out my posts with how much time I DON'T have. So I wont. Not this time. Not now. Work has been going well. I adore my floor supervisor. She is always telling me what a great job I do. She makes me blush. I don't handle praise to well. I mean don't get me wrong I love to hear it but I feel strange when we are face to face and they say it more then once. Makes me blush. Am I the only one? I highly doubt it. Anyway point is I am glad things are going well. Sadly there isn't a day that goes by that I wish I could be doing what I truly love. I wish I could be creative for a living. Very hard to do that. Especially with a family to support. I haven't given up my dream tho of opening up my own store.

I haven't been able to cook much of anything new. I am hoping to get back into doing that soon. I have a ton of recipes on pinterest waiting for me to try. Feb. Gonna shoot for that.

CHA is coming up! I would LOVE to go and am trying. I don't think it is gonna happen tho. Not written in the stars for me this year. I have never been and it looks like tons of fun. Poo. Have you ever been?

My hubby's birthday was last weekend. We had a small get together at our house on Saturday and then Sunday I took him out to a movie and dinner.
This man.
This cake.
This movie.
This dinner.
It was lovely!

If I was just another dusty record on the shelf

My mom's birthday went well.


Made her cookie dough cupcakes & pumpkin spice fudge. My husband told me they were his very favorite cupcake so far. If you love cookie dough that cupcake is totally for you.

& the Hubs made Sopes.The sopes turned out soooo good.

I managed to make her a simple card.
I channeled my inner Ashley Newell. Not as sweet as her cards but I made it in 5 mins so I don't think it turned out bad. All in all it was a lovely day.

I managed to complete 5 pages that I have started and never completed. This is one of them.
Hambly and Crate for this one.

My husband and I have been together now for almost 19 years. I say that constitutes me calling us soul mates, wouldn't you?

Speaking of Crate...What is with AC buying up all these SB companies? NUTS! I love Crate paper. I am also sad to see Sass is out of the game. I mean I guess things have gotten really tough for EVERYONE. I hope this economy turns around soon.
