Back in time

My sis in law Michelle called me yesterday. Her friend cancelled on her at the last moment and she has an extra ticket to the Journey/Def Leppard show tonight....did I want to go?!?!

Now, I thought I had outgrown all the 80's music but I couldn't resist this. So I said sure why not. It should be fun. I'm not a huge fan but I think I remember the words and can sing along. It will be fun to take a trip back in time.
I'll post some pics if I'm allowed to take my camera in.

Mozilla/Firefox


Well, for me that was the key. I installed and ran Mozilla and now, as you can see I have photos!!
This was the card I made for the color challenge this week. It's the first time I've stamped in a week and I needed some stress relief. It's also the first time I've used this set...I love it! I'm pretty happy with the card and hope that I can make some time this weekend to do more stamping.

I want photos

So I'm really irritated that I cannot get my photos to load. I see them on lots of other Blogs, and even managed to do it once on here. I should be going off to bed, but instead this is just eating at my brain!!!

AUGH!!!!

Thanks I feel better. Needed to get that off my chest.

Tons of BRAKS




Today when I got home from work I had 3 BRAKs in the mail from my stalker friends. I was totally floored. At this point in my life I don't really count the birthday's anymore. My dh even forgot that it was this coming weekend.
So, this was such a nice thought. I have been sending BRAKs out as I remember but sometimes time can get away from me. Just like it has done on the blog.

Since I cannot seem to upload photos for some reason I will just post a link to my CC RAK gallery here. Go check them out.

Rockin out with Styx




Last Wednesday I took a trip north to see some of my dear friends, the McClements. For those of you who don't know who they are - I was their nanny for 4 years and the older boys' preschool teacher for 3 years before that. We are still very close and try to see them as often as possible.
A few months back, Miss Mary told me that Styx was coming to the local fairground, did I want to go?? OMG - Yes!! We saw them together about 10 years ago and it was a blast. So the kids and I headed north to have some fun.
The kids stayed with a sitter while Miss Mary, Mr Bill, Uncle Ian, myself, Matthew, his girlfriend Ashley, Terry, Kara and Megan went to the show. We were sitting in the 7th row and it was unbelievable! We had such a rockin' good time. I wish we could do it once a month. I have finally figured out how to get the photos on here. I switched to Firefox.

Maybe I am getting the hang of this


Hey - Look, it worked. OK I think I'm getting this now. Just thought I would try once more. This is a card I made for Wednesday's Sketch Challenge. These challenges have really helped me think outside of my stampin box and try something new. Without each of the daily hostesses we would just be a bunch of stalkers with no purpose.

OK, for real this time, I'm going to bed. This site must have a vaccuum on it.

It's really late


and I have to get up pretty early. We are going to Bellingham for a few days to see the McClements.
I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to post some links to my favorite websites like www.splitcoaststampers.com and to my gallery of cards.
I guess for now, this will have to do
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=42389

I wanted to add a photo as well but seem to be having technical issues. Guess that is a sign I should get off the brain sucking box eh?

Guess I've been sucked in

Not quite sure how this happened but yes - I now have a Blog! Who knows where this will lead but if it has to do with Stampin' it's sure to be a blast!!
