MIA

Sorry I've been MIA. I'm feeling out of sorts. Nothing terrible, but just not my usual self. And I sooo don't want to be sick right now. We still have so much to due around the house before Christmas. So before I come down with a cold, I have decided to rest a little more than usual and actually take care of myself, for once ;-) Yep and it took me 37 years to be able to do it too. Being grown-up and realizing it: that sucks :-D
So girlfriends, while I'm busy taking care of myself and am not around, I'll leave you with some eye-candy:


This is the song that has found an uninhabited spot in my mind and has decided to say there:

    Angie,

    Being sick around the holidays is the worst. Hopefully you have caught it in time and will be feeling yourself in no time. :-) Take care!

  9. Well my darlin' girl, I'm not sure which one of us is MIA the most! *sigh*

    I sure hope that you are feeling better SOON love. Being sick can either be a drain and a REAL inconvenience OR it can be the ONLY way one can get some MUCH needed downtime!

    I think you and both have learned later in life (me obviously MUCH later *wink*) to take it easy and pamper ourselves rather than overdoing it all of the time and HORRIFICALLY paying the price, eh?

    Just look at ALL you are accomplishing!!! You supply us with ENDLESS means of creativity, you write, you LOVE, you cook, you clean, you go to work outside the home and you share your latest readings and Twilight videos with us too!!!

    I had wanted to get my bootsky over here and see what you had to say about New Moon as my grandson's mommy and daddy went to see it (I got to "watch" my grandson!!! *big grin*) and they both LOVED it!

    Perhaps one of these days, I shall get back to reading REAL books! I do so much research online that by the time I am finished, I'm TOO pooped to read any more! ROFL!

    I have SO missed you and will come and catch up with you after my blog trains launch tomorrow. I think I shall spend Wednesday catching up with y'all in Scrapland! He, he ...

    Take care of your sweet and PRECIOUS self and those LOVELY men of yours. Feel better soon sweetie!

    Love and hugs,
    Linda XOXO

    Just wanted you to know there are some twighlight-style crafty projects over on oneprettything.com (scroll down a bit and you'll see some and a link to more). Even includes a cliff diving team shirt iron-on, etc. Thought it might be a nice relaxing thing for you to do. :)

She has a very full life.. annnnnnd she has lots of other interests and things pulling her in other directions. I just hope .. if she is considering bringing this to an end.. that she will show someone all her trade secrets.. so some other industrious soul.. can pick up where she so beautifully left off???

    Sorry just thinking out loud.

    BTW Angie.. if you are reading this.. I hope you are well.. and doing okay. You are dearly missed. I just hope you are not sick .. and really enjoying your time away.

    So Angie.. if everyone that comes to your blog would pay for the rights to access it (let's say $20 per year) and you got back on your horse... would you? I mean, count your hits, work the math! Just having been a designer that you've posted links for some of my stuff in the past I KNOW that you get hits through the roof daily... but girl, if you could make some $ doing this instead of some 9 to 5... shoot, PUT me in line! I would absolutely pay if it got you back in here!

    Hi Angie,

    Here is hoping you just wanted to change things up a little and have, at least for the time being, kind of Scrapping Block (similar to writer's block) .... as opposed to anything more.
