Angel Eyes

First off, I wanted to show you where my 2 oldest boys have been sleeping for the past 91 days (give or take). Check out the sweet set up that my dad rigged up. The tents are raised on 4 palettes (each), then there's a heavy rope stretched between 2 trees, with a huge tarp staked down to help with rain protection. They each have a camping air mattress, and a heavy, cold weather rated sleeping bag. It's the best I can do for them right now. *sigh* This, too, shall pass, right?





AND, here's my dress for the ball! And no, I won't be wearing my camo bandana and no make-up - LMBO!!! I never in a million years would have even hoped to DREAM that I could fit into a size 8 dress like this! Yeah for my diet! And Yeah for thrift stores - not a bad ensamble for under $10, wouldn't you say! Dress and wrap both! My Aunt Sue does beaded jewelry, and said that she's make me some BLING, so that's taken care of. Now, I just need a good pair of black heels, and someone to teach me to walk/dance in them - LOL! Can you tell that I'm just a LITTLE bit excited - hehehe.




I decided to join a Book Club at church. I thought I'd give it a try. I'm not big for talking with groups of people, so this is a bit out of my comfort zone, but I thought it would be good for me :) We're reading the book "The Giver" by Lois Lowry. I got it from Amazon today, and am excited to start reading. I know that a lot of you probably read it in school, but this one wasn't on our required reading list, I guess. I'll let you know what I think of it :)

OK, now on to WordArt. Here's a really pretty one that I made up for you guys - Don't you like it! I thought it was very pretty :) Click on the image below to go to my 4shared account to download the PNG file, and leave some love if you like my work. :)

  15. Thank you for the wordart ... I've tried making some, but to me they always look like Ray Charles reached in a box of Scrabble letters of different fonts, and threw them on the table.
