OMG is it July Already haha

Where the heck does the time go...I can't believe I haven't been here since April, I bet Marjo is laughing her butt off at me when she reads this haha...I really should frequent this place more often, but who has the time I ask you :)

Ok, want to show you what I been up to...We StitchyBear Digital Stamps are being published in this really cool magazine from across the pond...It's called

PAPERCRAFT ESSENTIALS

and it's a really cool magazine...anyway, we One Stitch At A Time, decided we should have a contest...instead of me typing it all in, coz we know I hate to type, takes me months sometimes to type something out haha

I'm just gonna show ya my ad I made for it...the contest that is...here it is

Ok got all that read now?  Gonna be really cool...I got both of the magazines in the mail and let me tell you, that magazine is chocked full of goodies, even got some card stock papers and some rubber stamps :)...

That really got me in the mood to start learning again, so I been waiting til 2am (only coz I am on that silly satellite and can't watch YouTube without draining my bandwidth any other time of the day haha) and I been saving a bunch of tuts on how to do this and that...Also been hitting every yard sale from miles around gathering goodies haha...I could probably open a craft store for cards by now with all the stuff I got...

Ok, also wanted to show you what I finished and put in the store today...it's not much, I got so much other stuff going on in my life right now, my drawing is taking 2nd place for the first time in two years now lol..not funny at all, I really miss it..anyway, what you think

It's not much, called Love's Garden, but I am fascinated with spoon dolls, my sis made me an angel one time and I always loved them...so thought I would draw one lol...

Well guess it's time to move on to something else, hope it's not another 4 months before I get back in here...I came to post some cool candy from She Stamps / Cheryl - she is giving away a "how to" book and some copics...I still haven't cracked mine open, but I'm gettin real close now haha

You all enjoy your summer and hopefully I will get back here sooner...

Good Friday Morning

Can't believe spring winter break is almost over lol...we had more snow this spring break than we had on winter break, what is up with that MS Mother Nature???  It's been so miserable here in New York, between the cloudy snowy days and the kid's with nothing to do, Yikes, I can't wait to go back to school haha..NOT!!!

Well here it is Good Friday already..I did manage to get a new skin on the front of the store...If you haven't checked it out yet, go see it HERE and tell me what you think???  It's not finished yet, I have a lot of touching up to do on it...But I have been learning how to move files around and install new mods and well, Jess and I have been having a ball lol..Oh did I mention that Sue and I have taken on a new partner in crime??  Jess is our newest member to the admin team at SBDS ;)  Yayyy Jess...she already does so much for me, I just had to promote her :)...Besides being there for me all the time, she has become such a special friend...

So welcome aboard Jess, hope you realize what your getting into hahahaha...

Sorry don't have any new previews for you today, been to busy to really make anything new, well I did make a few new, but not had a chance to get in store yet...so they aren't even previewed yet haha..**note to self - can't sell anything if you don't get it in the store dummy** :)..

Wanted to let you all know that we are doing a special Easter sale at the store this week...since we been doing our weekly newsletter, we don't have any sales going on except for the "spotlight creator" in the newsletter.  We have done a whole rotation of creator's and before starting out our next rotation, I thought we should all have a quickie sale and what better time than Easter...so go and check it out...as the emails come in, I am adding the sales...so keep checking back ...

Otherwise, everyone have a very safe and Happy  Hoppy Easter

Besides doing the 3 new products for the April Collaboration, that's about all I got done...wait til you see all the new ones going into next month's collab...WOW, they are amazing :)...

Well, that's it for today, did all my comments to my DT first time in forever it seems, I so appreciate all they do for me and the other creator's but sometimes I just don't get the time to get around to tell them that...**note to self, Sunday is comment day** there that should do it, now if only to find all my notes I be in great shape haha..

You all whoever reads, have a wonderful Sunday and remember, Fall back but SPRING Ahead haha...the clocks are now in the spring mode, so let's see if Mother Nature will follow suit :)

Weekend Already???

Holy Crap!!! Where did this week go already???  I honestly can't believe it's Saturday already and tomorrow is a new challenge over at OSAAT  They say *whoever they are haha* Time flies when your having fun...well *they* lied to me this time...This week has been the furthest thing from fun that I could even imagine!!!

First off, been waiting for a full time position at the bus garage for 5 years now..yep FIVE big ones...I love my job, love the kid's, should actually be writing a book of day to day life while driving school bus..these kid's, well some of them, are the most comical, talented, amazing people I have ever met.  Well this part of my life could be coming to an end by June if things don't change there...There have been 3 job postings go to the board in the past 3 years and my John Hancock has been on every single one of them...only to be passed by all 3 times ;(...TO A MAN!!!  What you think about that...I drive tractor trailer cross country for 15 + years, starting out on my own then doing with my better half...so scratch the idea that I can't handle a big ole yellow bus forward and backward...and any other way that you want me too :)...so that couldn't possibly be the reason that I didn't get the job AGAIN!!!  Never had an accident in the bus, never hurt any kids' on the bus, never drove while being intoxicated **like so many others' do shamefully** Hell I don't even drink!!!  Never done any of those things that you would think would keep you from getting a full time position, but yet, I am turned down again for this job????  I shower daily, well almost every day haha..brush my teeth and comb my hair, why tell me why please can I not land a job with actual benefits for me and my family???  

Let me see 3 years ago, it was "You don't have enough experience" This MAN has been driving bus for a long time - found out that was a lie!!!  He was even a sub at the time of hire, I was a union paying part timer!!!  Now 2 years ago, while sitting on pins and needles just knowing that this was finally my time, another MAN got the job...Of course I had more seniority than him, he just came there a year before that and just 4 months prior to that became part time???  Now this last time, even after being TOLD TO MY FACE, that the next full time position would be mine...NOT, guess what, 3 guesses and the first two don't count...You guessed it, yet another MAN got the position...Now I tell you, I know I'm 55 years old, but I honestly didn't think that I was still living in 1955...What the hell is this world coming to I ask you...It just so happens we have one hell of a union president now and she has been fighting for me the whole way...I think haha...but I am really going to put her to the test on this one, because after 5 years of not backing down *which everyone that I talked to including my husband said - you got more will power than me, I would have never lasted this long*  that HAS to account for something, could it be I LOVE MY JOB WOMEN, GIVE ME WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY MINE...I will keep you posted on the outcome of this...this last time I was told that she is just not COMFORTABLE with me..now mind you, she is comfortable enough for me to drive 4.75 hours a day with her precious kids, but 5 hours *which is a full time position* no that can never happen, that is way to much in her comfort zone...

Give me your thoughts on this mini book lol..any suggestions what I might do next???  I am already filing a grievance which hasn't even been started yet, but in my mind...

Ok, enough of that, only breaks my heart to even think about it anymore...

On a brighter note...make sure you stop by the challenge blog tomorrow...we have tons of gifts to give away, we are celebrating our first Birthday over at OSAAT and would love to see ya...don't bring gifts, just a card will do ;)...haha..

HAPPY TRAILS......

Tuesday Already????

OMG what happened to Monday, got right away from me haha...Well after that game on Sunday ;( I sorta slept hibernated for a bit haha...Nah, it was a really good game, guess that is why they call it the SUPERBOWL haha..well anyway, Monday I went back to work at the bus garage..kids were for the most part happy to see me, til I started yelling at them again then they was like, don't you have somewhere else to be now :)...

Anyway, after I got home and ate dinner, watched a movie with hubby and son and at 8pm I was like, why bother, let's go to bed NOW haha...so off I went and slept like a baby I did...Woke up about 4am to find snow everywhere...so sat down and started making a freebie for this Sunday's Birthday Bash and before I knew it was time to go and clean off the car..Just as I got up, phone rings....now this can't be good, someone calling me at 6am...**always worried about that dreaded Pittsburgh call, since mum is 90 this year** anyway, whew, was not Pgh, was school saying stay in bed for 2 more hours there is a delay today...well hell, just call the dam day off I say haha...I could use ONE MORE DAY PLEASE :)...but nooooooo screw me all up with this time change now...so anyway...that's it for today..

Now I am off to go fight the blinding snow devils and get them brats lovely children off to school safely coz that is what I do :)...

Everyone have a safe and crafty day, will be back tomorrow if I find out anything more about the Birthday Bash, make sure you show up, I know there's a ton of prizes to be givin away

SuperBowl Sunday - Finally Here GO STEELERS

Wow can't believe it, Super Bowl Sunday is here...in just one half hour the game will start and I am all ready for it...showered, got clothes ready for work tomorrow (can't believe my vacation is over already haha) and my attendance sheet is printed out...everything by the door so all I have to do is wake up, grab my tea and decide what I want to draw before I go haha...here is what I done this weekend..

That one is called Sunday Morn, don't even ask me why coz I won't be able to tell ya...and I did another one of those crazy kid ones...this one is called "the boys" haha - what ya think?

Hi Everyone who reads ;)

Well I finally did it, got a new blog skin (sorry Deb) the bears were just to much for me haha...I never really been a bear person anyway...It's sorta like, either your a dog or a cat person, really hard to be both haha..Not alot going on today, went to doc's yesterday and he  she released me to go back to work on Monday...Yikes, I don't even remember all my kids names on the bus anymore haha...

For those of you that didn't know, I fell kiss the freakin' ground with my middle finger yep, right hand and that is what I am :(...bent that baby the whole way back to kiss my wrists THE WRONG WAY!!!  I never felt such pain in all my days alive...got the ring finger too but that didn't break, only my smiling finger haha...so here I am 2 weeks before Christmas with my middle finger sticking straight up with a big ole silver splint on it haha...Guess I didn't have to voice how I felt about it, let my finger do all the talking for me hehe...

So anyway, it's still really stiff and I have learned how to type without it now after 6 weeks of not using it, so I guess I don't really need it to much haha...Other than that, been working on tomorrow's big post for the challenge blog...got everything ready to go, except of course for the winner's coz last week's challenge isn't done yet..

So, that's all I'm writing for today, coz I got yet another stamp in the works and want to get it finished and in the shop before midnight tonight...Tomorrow is all booked up, once I get the new challenge well on it's way, it's sit and relax on my last day home and gear up for watching the Steeler's send them packer's packin' 

So everyone take care and pop in sometime and say hello :)

First post in ages and it's a CYA post lol

Hello Fellow Blogger's,

I never thought I would be posting a card in here lol...But this is a very special card for a very special and unique gal I met oh about 9 months ago...Wow, time flies huh?  Well Sam talked me into building a challenge blog as we fondly call OSAAT - if you don't already know it's 

ONE STITCH AT A TIME

because that's all she could handle of me, one at a time hehe...All because one day she made a card from a fellow creator and I was doing my happy blog dance and when I saw what she made (Sam do you remember lol) I left a comment on how unique it was and she was very talented...She seeked me out and thanked me and the rest how you say is history:)

Sammy this is NOT goodbye, I am learning Face Book very quickly and I will be on there to bug you alot lol...and let's not forget messy when James will let you have the computer !!!

Well I best get this posted, I am running late as usual, will never get use to this "time difference" lmao...

Oh wait, this is my first card post, ain't I suppose to tell you about it lmao...Okay bare with me, here goes lol

Okay purpose of this card is to use Crafty Chaos papers as she is leaving the store end of the team...but staying on as DT woo hoo... and of course My Sammy Girl is leaving me ;(

Any how, I used my silhouette and my newest addition to the store the sentiments called "Just Between Friends"  so why not go check them out and while your at it, give Sam & Susan a bit of extra lovin this week ;)

Okay gotta run, so much to do so little time

Til next time..oh yeah, of course one more thing...what you all think of the new blog skin?  Deb I already know what your answer is hehe...Well, I'm not happy with it, so I imagine when I get back into psp land, I am gonna change it again...I figure the more I change it, the better I get at installing it without heart failure lmao..

Okay this time for sure, here comes my happy click fnger ;)

CYA

xoxox

I"m back again - believe me ??? hahahahaha

Yah thought I better start cleaning out the cobwebs in here so I stayed up til 4AM this morning cleaning and building and installing and wala new blog ;)

I wasn't gonna go with the bears but when I seen Seashell's kit that I had I just couldn't resist that cute little bear and ALL THOSE GOODIES it had, well I just couldn't resist lol

Well stay tuned and I will start posting all my new stamps and stuff in here to give ya a heads up what's in store...Also have a few other things in mind lol..

Good Evening everyone...

Well spent another glorious day at Wally World lol..didn't get to much for me this time...hubby got a set of tools and exchanged a couple pairs of jeans, my daughter got a shaver and looked at camera's but still didn't see anything she liked..don't matter to her about anything but the color of the dam thing lol...kid's go figure huh...as for me, i got some card stock paper and some sticky dots that give that 3D feel to the card...I got most of what I needed in yesterday's trip to Wally World...I did get an Angus burger from Mc'D's lmao so the trip was worth it I guess..

Well to give you a little insite on this beauty, she is another Barbara Jensen original and one of my favorites, being as I rode a Harley for years (that's a whole nother story an time) lol... take a pop over and see what Barb has up for grabs, her art work is absolutely gorgeous...

Well, with hubby out fishing and me ready to hit the sack (need to take a nap coz he's gonna wanna watch tv when he get's home lol) I will be back with more for you later this week..

Thanks for everyone that replied to my mini poll about the preview template...I gave a copy to all the girls in the store, so you will be seeing more and more white coming in...I am not sure about changing all the pink's over, I said they didn't have to...I might, but will take a while lol

You all have a lovely evening...
