Merry Christmas everyone!

I hope everyone had a good time today. I did. I have the best little girl a mom could ask for. She was so happy and had a great time today. Everyone was very good to her and I feel thankful to have people around who love her so much. She is so full of love and happiness it is amazing to me!

I think that as she gets older I am going to make it tradition to do some kind of charity work around the holidays so that she understands how blessed and lucky she is to have what she has. I dont want her to take it for granted.

I think my blog has taken the place of my facebook. I feel like an addict who has replaced one addiction with another :-\ ohhh man. I am starting to feel better and I'd like to attribute that, at least a little bit, to my lack of facebook. Its good to just live and not worry so much about something so trivial. It is also good not to feel the "pressures" of facebook. When I say that I do realize how immature it sounds, but I think we all have felt that feeling of I don't really want to add this person but I work with them, or they are my mom's cousin, or put up this, or be tagged in that location, etc. etc. etc. I just feel done with it. The nosey side of me does miss it but really, that is almost like the addicted part of me trying to get my "fix". I think I am going to keep it deleted for longer than Jan 1st. We'll see how well that works out!

It's time for me to get some rest and try to let my body kick this cold in the toosh! Have a good one!

Snot Face!

Why that title?? Does anyone remember that movie, Drop Dead Fred? I loved that when I was little! Its one of those movies you watch when you are older in shock that you even were allowed to watch it! Haha! I didnt even begin to have any clue what most of the jokes were about back then. But now I do and its still funny, just in a different way lol. Anywho the title is what the girl/woman's imaginary friend called her. Lol

For the first time that I can recall, it looks like I am going to be sick on Christmas. My daughter was/is sick but seems to be getting over it, so I hope I get over it as quickly as her (a couple of days). Lots of people in my family have come down with this so Christmas should be an interesting one this year.

In other news, I got 5 of those frames completed in 2 days!! I thought it would take me much longer but I liked it so much it was hard to put them down! Now I find my mind wandering to different designs I'd like to try out!

I still have gifts to wrap up before its time to tear into them. Lol. My little one already keeps walking up to the gifts trying to get the unwrapping underway. So far we are only down one bow. Haha. Luckily she gets caught every time! I hope everyone has a good rest of their week/holiday!

Got some frames done in time for Christmas!

Here are the ones I have completed, as promised. I am going to be giving these as gifts for Christmas. I think that making these frames is really simple and fun!

I will be giving this one to my daughter's Grandma.

This is going to be given as a gift also.

If you are on a limited budget and like to craft, these are a great gift idea. The frames can be found at Michaels for $1 each. They don't have glass so I went to the dollar store and bought some 4x6 frames to take the glass from. It worked like a charm! I already had some of the stuff I used, but found myself purchasing new embellishments to use (Michaels is my crack, lol!) I will be making 3 others also. After purchasing the frames and supplies I needed I spent about $45. I will be getting 5 gifts out of the $45 purchase, making the cost of each one around $9. Not bad!

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, if I don't get a chance to post before then.

Feeling Crafty

I was browsing my friend Crystal's blog, and found these frames that she makes. They are so cute! I decided that I will use my TWO! WHOLE! WEEKS! off of school to try and make one of these. I am not sure how it will turn out but I talked to Crystal about how she does it and I also looked up some stuff online and it shouldn't be too hard, especially since I already Scrapbook. When they are done I will post pictures and let you know how it goes!

I am, again, sitting here at work bored out of my mind! I just got back from my yummy sushi lunch break. I went with my good friend and we decided to share our normal two rolls as well as embark on trying a new one, good choice! I am now pleasantly stuffed and sleepy!

I got one of my final grades back already from an online class. It was bittersweet. I know that I could have had a very high A in that class, but decided to slack off for a week so I got a B. I am bitter that I didn't just stick with it and get a great grade, but very happy that I managed to still get a B. Hopefully I will have a final grade soon for my other online class. As for the on ground classes, I have two weeks off (YESS!) then go back to take finals, so in about the second week of January I should know what my final grades are! I am ready to move on to another quarter and learn some new stuff. Hopefully I get good classes!

Well I am going to go and try to find something productive to do with the rest of my day. OHMYGOSH!! As I was typing this out the wind was blowing so hard outside it started to shake the building. I am on the second floor and I almost had a dang heart attack!! Hopefully this weather calms down a little bit so my poor heart doesn't give out!
