Ok...so it's been a while, crazy busy. You know when you have so many things to do and those thoughts are going in circles in your mind, nonstop, well I have two of those circles/rings going (what am I Saturn??). And for some reason I don't seam to advance, my brain is racing but my hands are in slow motion. What I think I need to do is make a list or two or three, for some reason I cannot function without lists, what is wrong with me!? Don't answer.
On my January post
here I mentioned I was going to
smile more, well sometimes that is just not possible, hey that's life right (typing this with a smile, true). So for the month of April (March is almost gone) I picked the word
focus,
Well I am proud of me for "focusing" on walking 45 minutes to an hour, 4-5 days per week, started February 15. Listen this is
big HUGE, you see I don't like to exercise (I had to check the spelling on that, that is how much I don't like it), don't judge. So for me this is life changing. Now if I can only get to stop eating Doritos, the cheesier the better (drooling here), have you seen the commercial of the two guys where one is done eating a bag and the other guy starts licking the first guy's fingers, well that's...never mind.
Also, I am working on a 12x12 wedding album, this one is very time consuming because you have to work around so many photographs. When doing scrapbooks without photos it feels so liberating, that is why when I went to my last local crop I completed an 8x8 wedding scrapbook, it's black, gray and pink, will post pics of it soon.
I just received the Versatile Blogger Award from Stacy from
Love That Bug, that was so sweet, please check out her blog, she is very talented.
The rules of the Award are to:
1. Thank the person who sent it to you.
2. List 7 things about yourself (do you really what to know so much about me?)
3. Send this award to 15 other bloggers.
So here we go:
Thank you Stacey for thinking of me, from the bottom of my heart.
About me:
1. The youngest of nine (hence the blog name)(parents had a lot of free time, don't know how with so many kids)
2. Hate cold weather (good thing we live in TX now)
3. Love Almond Joy (always feel like a nut)
4. Always making something (hands never idle, sometimes slow but never idle)
5. Wish I could talk to dead people (it would be interesting)
6. Don't like open cabinets nor drawers (my hubby said it's OCD, but last I checked he's no Dr.)
7. Always wanted a pet monkey (again, don't judge)
