Blah ~ Blah ~ Blah

Hi there everyone. Do you ever feel like this some days.....stick your tongue out at everything??? Yeah, that's the way I have felt for these last couple of weeks. Only thing I can think is, POLITICS??? I am so tired of all the lying on both sides. The news media keeps lying about everything too...all wanting their 15 minutes of fame.

I know who I am voting for, just hope that person gets in as President....it will definitely be more easier to pray for that person. Yeah, blah, blah, blah!!!!

I have been looking at different cards on the Internet......getting ideas for Christmas cards. I saw this little gem yesterday and totally fell in love with it......isn't he cute??? Need to find this stamp.

I ordered this new stamp, an addition to my collection of many. A woman I knew years ago, borrowed me this stamp and I made a few cards with it. I had to return it and so naturally, I have looked high and low for this stamp.

Found it on the Internet, someone had made a card with this Great Blue Heron.....where did they get that stamp????? So I followed her link and found it at Repeat Impressions in Maine. I can hardly wait to start making cards with this Great Blue Heron. Hopefully I have the backing to start making a few cards for Hospice.

So today, we had the Electric and Gas Co. put in a new meter, no charge to us.....they change up their gas meters every 25 years.....we have lived in this house 25 years. The gas man found 3 gas leaks and fixed them temporarily, the fix will last 6-12 months, then we should get the furnace guy here for fix it further. Maybe after winter, we might have a little bit more money then, I hope.

Today I returned At&t's 2 receivers and cords and 3 remotes to UPS. UPS packs and sends the product back to AT&T for free and if I did not return them by November 4th......BAM! I would get charged $300.00!!!!  

Next week, Friday, JP has to have a biopsy of the prostrate. He is not looking forward to it. It seems the Doctor thinks he has cancer. I guess we will find out then what the outcome will be. If you think about it, prayer would be appreciated for him and me.

Looks like in the next few days I will be raking leaves, our tree is really shedding, leaves all over the place. And it is time to get my ceramic critters in the shed....no, I still have not done that yet.

Time to close here....you all have a great night and keep looking up, better days are coming. Cheers ~ Louise

☺☺ Funday Thursday ☺☺

Saw this picture on the Internet and just had to save it to my files, it brought a chuckle to my heart. Would be funny to snap a picture while the monkey is peeking into the camera lenses.......funny monkey!!!!

So, how are you all doing today??? Hope all is well with you on this bright and sunny day, well, it is bright and sunny here in Wisconsin today and the snow is melting....yeah, it feels like spring outside. Think I will sit out on the front porch with a good cup of French Roast decaf coffee today and soak up some Vitamin D. Life is good even in the little things!!!!

Did you notice? I changed the look of my blog...........guess it was time for a new look. There still are a few things I want to change, but that will come in time. The background is of a mountain.....thought that was very apropos for me as I feel there are always mountains in my way. Jesus says it takes "faith" to move mountains. Sometimes my faith is very small at times, but there always seems to be a way through those mountains, even if we have to tunnel through day by day, one day at a time.

Made an Easter card last night, the theme is "1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given" it turned out great! I will make some more cards tonight and place a set of cards on my blog tomorrow for you all to see. Most likely I will add the set of cards to my Etsy store also, 4 cards for $10. That would be $2.50 per card. I bought the stamp from a fellow Etsy Artisan in Montana I will get her name for you. http://www.sweetgrasstamps.etsy.com Totally fast service too, so if you like this stamp it certainly will arrive in time for you to make some cards of your own like this.

Well, I better get going, have a few things to do before I lock myself up in my studio to make some more cards. You all keep looking up for your redemption draweth nigh.
Cheers ~ Louise
