That statue of baby jesus in the window of the .99 store

Well how was your holidays? I think I am getting back to my old self.


  • I started walking again with my kids and hubby.

  • My daughter is now my work out partner.

  • My desk is a huge mess!

  • Added some new music to the playlist.

  • I actually want to scrap!
    I miss it a bit. I just couldn't find time while I was sick.

Some sad news...RVK is closing. I'm very very sad. I love Rachel, Jen, Theresa, and Michelle. I loved the kits Rachel put together and it was such a honor to be on that dt. I know whatever she goes on to do will be very wicked cool.

One of my fav ladies died in dec. Bettie Page. So sad but she lived a long life and a good one too.

Been playing Millionheir on the DS and watching movies. I have seen...Eagle Eye (pretty good), Mama Mia (eh), Burn after reading (very interesting), Curious case of Benjamin Button (wicked great) and I think that is it. Still have to watch a few movies.



I've lost 102 pounds and am almost on my 7th month. Man the holidays were rough! I am just grateful I managed to lose 2 pounds lol!

I went out and bought me some new shirts and other junk. It is so nice to shop in a regular store. The prices are so much better. Although I did buy a majority of my clothes at torrid...I'm just glad they have smaller sizes too because I love that store. Hehe!

I will be back tmw or the next day to post some work I am most def going to do lol! Also gonna go leave some love for my fellow bloggers. I am such a slacker!
Tell me what you did for New Years.

Torrid IS such a cute store, I bet you had fun shopping.

When I read about RVKC I immediately thought of you. I'm so sad about it, they were my favorite happy mail!

I really like the new background, but it makes it hard to read most of the words (or at least to me it does. :P)
I had such wonderful holidays! Got a new printer so I can start printing my own pics! Yay!
Congrats with the weight loss. I really want to start getting healthier this year!
Later babe! :D

Diane and I were worried hadn't seen any blogging in a while from you. Glad to see things are going well for you. The Holidays were very hard on our family this year. My FIL passed the day after Thanksgiving and that set the tone for the season. I need to blog too. Take care
