Soul Searching

Over the last couple of weeks I've had a lot of time to do some soul searching. I've come to realize that you may love some one with all your heart but sometimes that person isn't the same person they were when you fell in love with them and it's time to let it go. Always easier said then done - but I'm going to try and get it done.

I've also realized that sometimes you just can not make yourself give a crap. But that too I plan on working on - I believe that's called attitude. :)

Life is what it is and you can either accept it and deal with the lemons or you can let it take you down the dark wholes. I've had my share of dark wholes and I'm going to try and not get back in them.

Sometimes trying to get your 84 yr old mother to understand what your feeling doesn't work - and she has never really agreed with much that I've done any way so once again I'll do what I think is best for me.

Luckily I have great friends that do understand where I'm coming from.

Paper Cow Gril Retreat

Prissy and I are attending Paper Cowgirl Retreat in June and can not wait. The picture above is one of the classes we will be taking. I've never made any type of jewelry and this is so stinkin' cute that I can't wait to make it.

So until June 9th rolls around I'll be dreaming of crafting at the Paper Cowgirl Retreat.

Sickness/Friends

Well I've been sick the last couple of days with strep throat. I hate when I get this as it really knocks me down. But wanted to say how very blessed I am to have friends like, Prissy, Amber, Allison and Freddie who were brave enough to bring me things to eat and Allison the bravest of them all - to drive me to the doctor. Please pray that none of these very caring friends get sick from me. They are truly great people.

Had a fast trip to the Texas Motor Speedway for the races this weekend. My man - Matt Kenseth won the race so it was great for me. Got home yesterday evening and I have to admit I am draggin today but I'll get thru this Monday one way or another.

Diaper Cake

Freddie and Prissy to the rescue.

Freddie and Prissy have once again saved me from failure. I decided to do this diaper cake for a shower gift for my friend Amber after seeing the ones that Jessica Ortiz does. As usual, I bit off more than I could get done in the time frame I needed it to be done.

So with much love and appreciation I thank Freddie and Prissy for their friendship and willingness to help a friend out. Prissy without your help this could not have gotten done.

I think the diaper cake turned out awesome. Hope the mother-to-be thinks so too.

Thanks Jessica also for sharing your diaper cakes and this will be the one and only one I do. I will leave them up to you from now on.

Monday's

So it's Monday, another week of work then off to the NASCAR races this weekend. I am truly blessed with a wonderful job that offers me many perks. This weekend's trip to the races is one of them. I'm going with 9 of my fellow co-workers. I can hardly wait. NASCAR is one of the few sports that I truly enjoy.

So tonight two of my besties needed blog lessons so we sat down and got to work. This has hopefully inspired me to blog more often. I will be working on updating my play list of music and hopefully will have other things to post. Am working on a diaper cake for a shower gift and with the help of Prissy just may get it done. As soon as I do I will post a picture of it. Until then....
